My haul from the steam summer sale is....



I bought some bread in real life though because that seemed like a better idea and what I could afford :disappointed-but-relieved-face:
That was the better choice by far! I'm sorry to hear you weren't able to grab any games you might have wanted. :disappointed-face:

But as NarohDethan said there's always the Winter sale and of course any others that pop up in between to keep an eye on. Keep your chin up and I'll be hoping that things improve for you soon! :cat-heart-blob:

Also got Paratopic and Bow to Blood, but refunded them (for different reasons, Paratopic wasn't for me, I tried to like it for 15 minutes and it was painfully clear that it wouldn't work, and Bow to Blood doesn't have WMR support, sadly and I bought it to play in VR).

Overall, good sale, time to wait for EDF 5 :D

IIRC, the Samsung Odyssey+ (unlike some other WMR HMDs) should actually have built-in bluetooth.
It sounds like it does, but very stealthily. I'll probably still keep the dongle I've got on the way, but at least it sounds like I can give it a shot tonight. It's weird it's so hidden :p Thanks for the tip

Iffy claimed they've fixed the 4K resolution support issue for Death End re;Quest.

7.09.2019 Build Update - 4k Support
10 Jul @ 5:10am - ideafactoryinternational

Hello Everyone,

We have a new build update that will fix 4k issues that players are experiencing:

Update Notes:
  • Fixed 4k and 4k Native Resolution
    *Note: In order to allow 4K settings to work properly, Windows 7 users must first access the Properties menu of the EXE file and change the DPI setting to "Application" (please see image below). Afterwards the 4k resolution should work without issue. Non-Windows 7 users will not need to do this.

I assume this isn't true arbitrary resolution support and 2160p is the maximum resolution it can handle.

Crazy to think this is an Atelier game, GUST must finally have been given a bigger budget or got super motivated or something...

I hate that Nintendo has cloud saves behind a paywall so much. Online is cheap, but garbage. Yet I love Splatoon 2 and MK8D MP.

Payed online is a plague that needs to die.
I was so disappointed when Nintendo went that route and even more disappointed when I started discovering certain games didn’t even support it.

Also I'll have to activate CheatEngine and pray the SpeedHack works, because those slow as fuck unskippable ever repeating scene transition scenes are killing me inside. They're a complete waste of time. At least make that shit faster or let me speed through it. I don't need to see the same stock door opening sequence for the gazillionth time, dammit. 999 felt much snappier.

/rant
Reporting back, it does work.
I ended up setting up auto-attach for VLR and added the speedhack hotkeys to the 2 paddles of the Steam Controller. Much better now.

So, I did it, I made and published my first YouTube video:

I admit I didn't expect it to be so hard to make this video, but I did it after all and you can see the results now. Hopefully, my English is easy to understand for you guys, planning to make some more in the future, probably shorter than this one and with less footage of myself, audio-only is significantly easier to make.
A really well made video! Well done!
I've started taking more screenshots when gaming lately as well. I've actually made a keyboard macro that takes a screenshot every X seconds to get some more "fluid" screenshots as well as the carefully lined up screenshots I take manually.

The macro was easily done with Microsoft keyboard center, which "presses" F12 in Steam at regular intervals when activated. Sooooo easy.

I really enjoyed the "new" Tomb Raider games, since their GUI automatically faded away when not needed, making screenshots easier. I wish more games had this option. Only display GUI when it is needed!

I have been playing Rise of the Tomb Raider these past days and finished it a few days ago. Now I am going through the game and try to collect everything. One thing I wonder is the leaderboards. I see some have scores over 50000 while I have measly 8000. How does the scoring system work?

Some of you even have game time at 0:00 in some levels with high scores, are you cheaters?

I was going to just play like 2 songs and muck about, but ended up playing 40 minutes or so of Beat Saber thanks to Durante protip about the Odyssey+. You can tell everyone how you helped a strange man on the internet get sweaty tonight!
:lewdblob: seriously though thanks for the random comment, I literally never would have known.

There's certainly a lot of cheaters, but the legit high scores are done in Score Attack mode with the cards that give +100% bonus. If you have the cards, or if you find someone to copy in the leaderbords with good card combination and a high percentage increase (say +400% / +500%), you'll reach those scores easily.

Can it be with motion control? I sincerely liked that in the Wii game. I'll take whatever they give me though, who am I kidding 🙃

I "paid" for a year via gold coins and got a second year via Twitch/Amazon Prime and Switch online is so bad I still feel ripped off.

I assumed you could do it with any PS4 or Switch Pro controller. I thought I saw gyro setup in the controller settings.

Overall outside confusing as hell event game, it was not a bad sale, tons of cheap old games I wanted to get for a long time like Rayman games and some stuff I was eyeing to play right away like SC6. Also got DOOM Eternal preorder because of sale discount coupons and the fact that I might not have free money in November to get it, and I know for sure that I'm going to play this game on launch because Doom 2016 was my GOTY.
