I used to update my drivers like every time they released, then AMD fucked up and they broke the clocks (IIRC the clocks kept reverting back to 2D clocks, I remember I had to use a weird program to avoid the clocks from dropping), since then I wait sometime before updating (and I've kept that habit when I went back to Nvidia).

I never know when an update for nvidia driers hit because I don't have GFE installed xD
curi0usBystander I remember when AMD did that years ago, i ended up going team green at my next upgrade. I think i had to run things with a registry edit and set registry keys and driver inf files to read-only to avoid having them reset to default broken values. Madness.
Bloody hell, that was in 2009 with my HD 4850? I remember i had a string of AMD HD cards over a few months ending with one of the top HD 5X series cards then AMD screwed the drivers. God, 10 years ago and i think the card is still going strong in my old Q6600 machine at a friends place.

Indeed. If anything, updating drivers as soon as possible only give you headache due to bugs and whatnot.
I only update my driver twice a year, even more infrequent sometimes. I just updated to the current driver last week while the last time was almost a year ago.
I plan on upgrading in 2020. Rtx on laptops sadly hadnt delivered so while going for a gtx 1070 or 80 mobile would be enticing, i would only upgrade for better aa options thru nvidia software.
Keeping any software not up to date will leave you vulnerable to security flaws, one of the last NV updated had a bunch of holes closed. Also you're losing performance especially in newer games and they regularly fix bugs. I get not wanting to immediately update but going to the other extreme makes no sense at all when playing recent games.
I'm in the update 2-4 times a year camp. I generally just forget until something seems to not work perfectly I'll remember I should try that to fix it. In this case I just updated for Mortal Kombat 11. I was on something like 419 and now 430?
I use my PC much like a console (as in just to play games) so I guess until i have an issue with a game I dont bother updating anything really. The security thing makes sense. Performance wise my machine is way over spec'd for my needs (1080p, 60fps) so I dont generally notice any issues.
I will however start to update a tad more often for the security.
And bought. I played 0, 6 and Kiwami 1 on PS4 so this will be a nice change of 60fps pace.Voidu has Yakuza Kiwami 2 now (maybe for a while, but I only noticed it now).
28% discount with code GAMINGTIME.
And I had some Voidu cash from previous purchases which got it down to 20.45€

Huh? I own the physical game (i bought it like, what? 10 years ago?) but I had no clue there was a digital edition! Thanks.
Next thing you're going to tell me is that there's a decent (and complete) dominion game on Steam...
Thanks, I'm watching it now. The title + description is encouraging. Perhaps Jimbo has finally come to his senses...
Edit: eh. I'm almost done and he's still ignoring all the pro-consumer and pro-developer stuff Valve has done or developed.
Edit2: oh man the outro. KevinSorboDisappointed.gif

I'll be honest, the fatalities in the more recent MK games are way over the top for me.
I try to update my drivers often but I never download them right as they're released so guinea pigs fellow personal computer gamers can QA assure me the Nvidia drivers are not fucked prim and proper.

God damnit I already redeemed mine from Fanatical

Unfortunately not, the digital rights to Dominion seem to be tied up in IP ownership hell.
Alright, that's Forgotton Anne done. Certainly had some frustrating/annoying moments, but certainly a really cool game.
One more game for 30 completed games!
Also, one thing I'm curious about: Is there some special meaning behind the word "forgotton"? Is this even a word? Or is it just a "stylized" "forgotten"?

Seems to be the latter. A Playstation focused site did a Q&A with them around release and that was the first question they asked.
Interview: Recalling Forgotton Anne with Developer ThroughLine Games
It's not a bad video, actually. Focuses a tad wee much on the capitalism angle but I'll take it.
Oh right, it's probably time to start thinking up some May subtitles too.
I dunno, I think Jim wheeling out the "Valve does nothing, Epic will force them to make games again" bullshit in the outro does completely undermine the rest of the video. It does come across as an endorsement of Epic's tactics, the very same tactics that he had just spent 15 minutes criticising.

Steam Store
Steam is the ultimate destination for playing, discussing, and creating games.
Sale not live yet.
True, but I can at least chalk that up to ignorance as opposed to indifference. It's an improvement over his attitude, I guess.
'Which of these 4 SEGA games are you getting?'

Sad to know that PC is one version behind consoles, WB never learns I guess.

MetaSteam | May 2019 - Enough games to play for AGES
How hard is it really for a developer to implement native controller support in a game? I went to install INSOMNIA: The Ark this weekend and there was no controller support. It looks like I can make it use a controller via steam big picture mode but I was too lazy that day so I just gave up. Perhaps this week I will try the Steam method.

Episode Ardyn discounted after one month lol.

70%.

This is the GOTY contender lashman needs in his life.
And here I am still waiting for Mary Skelter, I'd hoped it would go on sale for the golden week.
From what I've seen the publisher discount one of their title every weeklong deal, guess I'll keep waiting for its turn

I wasn't going to get any more games this month... but I might need to splurge on this one.
