Theres no physical pc release outside Limited Run’s special edition so no.
Ok, but what about Switch ? It's like there was no physical western release at all. I can't even buy it on French Amazon and the likes.
Ironically, the only 'cheap' version is a physical asia version on PlayAsia. I don't want a fucking physical version.

The Switch version is also only available through physical or digital through the eshop so you wouldnt get any cheap codes there either.

Still crazy to see that Canard PC is still around. I was subbed to Joystick in the early 90s, it was the only videogame magazine i really followed back then.

That and TILT before it.

Ah, the good old days...
Another fucking Frenchman ! We are everywhere.
And good ref by the way, Tilt and Joystick were some good mags.

When you're honest and don't sell your pages to do PR for AAA games, you can gather a small but strong community to follow you around. That's why they're the last man standing in paper journalism while every other magazines had to close down because no money.

Funny they all went : "let's go do clickbait articles online and only depends on advertising money, what could possibly go wrong with ethics ?" except Canard PC.

Soon I will be able to stop pretending that I can write in English ! \o/

And Tilt was not good, their fall was to be expected. They were here before a lot of others, but they were not good and that's why Joystick outlived them. Before being sold to a big corp who don't know what journalism means.

I wonder if there is any other outlet in that case. I can't think of one and that saddens me greatly.
 
With all these talks about old French gaming mags, I've fallen down a nostalgia rabbit hole for the last 15 minutes. And discovered Edika and Carali are not the same guy. No wonder I got confused, they have similar art styles and are brothers.

On the other hand I have to start a game ! Those are the worst times. So hard to launch some game instead of another.

I have three priorities : Monster Hunter World, Destiny 2 Shadowkeep and Code Vein.

Good thing about getting review keys : I know what I should play next ! Bad thing : it's not always what I want to play :/

By the way, I have a special thanks to metacouncil because it's where I got a lot of info about releases and upcoming games ; I published yesterday a recap of past weeks to light a spot on some games, and I intend to do it every tuesday (and add some links to interesting articles). First issue is not very long but it's a start :

 
So it seems if you have more than 300 friends on Steam Destiny 2 crashes shortly after launch. No way i'm deleting 200 people to play lol.
Lol I think that Mushihimesama (or some other shmup?) did that years ago and I wrote a hacky injector workaround for it back then.

I really wouldn't have expected a large-scale "AAA" game to mess up something basic like that.
At least it should be easy to patch.

Anno 1800 did the same thing :P

i guess even AAAs don't test the case of "what if someone has a lot of friends" ;)

I only have like 34 friends. I like to keep a small list of people I actually interact with.

I cant imagine how anyone deals with 200+ friends. I used to have 147 before I purged it and it was a nightmare.

It's nothing too much really. During sales I would check my activity feed and find about 5 or 6 games being bough or wishlisted that I had no idea about but other than your feed being somewhat long it doesn't change much.
 
Christ, Ubi. I couldn't manage to delete my CC from Uplay+ despite having the service cancelled through the Uplau client nor the website. So I checked r/uplay and find a method that worked.


Wait for it...

Get a fake CC through something like Visa Credit Card Generator | Generate Valid Credit Card Numbers with Fake Details (I used this one), Uplay+ will accpet it and then it let me delete my real cc.

I really wish I didn't need to do that, but until further it seems like the only way to remove my actual cc.
 
How do you do fellow Gamers? Would you like a gaming browser from one of the oldest web companies out there?



Only partially kidding, some of these features actually seem pretty cool. Especially the resource limiter and the built-in free VPN.

Oh, Opera contacted me on Reddit to try it and review it some months ago but I never thought it would take off. Seems that this actually turned out decent while their main browser went down the river lately - that's what I heard anyway

I only found out about it because I use Opera at work sometimes and had a pop-up right inside the interface asking me to check it out. The main browser doesn't seem too bad to me, but I only use it as a tertiary browser behind Firefox and Chrome (I like to group different categories of tabs in different browsers).
 
Seeing the activity feed alive and full of screenshots, purchases and stuff is something I really enjoy, even if I interact with a small group of people.
Yup. Having lots of friends is useful to liven up your acticity feeds. You may find interesting games they bought, posted, or reviewed, that you may have missed. Unlike machine recommender like Steam, your friends are actual people who have limited time and money to spend like everyone else. So when they do spend them on something, it means that it may be worth your attention too. Sometimes, I may also discuss stuff with them, whether in my post or theirs. That is my main interaction with my Steam friends, it's not like I have to chat with them, play together, or anything. It's literally like a social media.

I once beta tested a game that had leaderboards crapping out in weird ways, I used that gedosato (right?) option to test and confirm that it too was only an issue when you had more than 100 people in your list. :cat-heart-blob:

Gonna check it out at least. Chrome is a resoruce hog, but the extensions and ease of access for GMAIL, Disk and Keep are important to me.

I usually check the official website (Home - IO Interactive), or their twitter account, for the monthly schedule.

There's currently one Elusive Target that is running until Monday.

As for October, here's the schedule:

Check the website for more details. :)
Thanks
Another question, I probably asked this before. But I can restart the elusive missions if I quit the mission?

In theory, no.
Once you start the mission, you are supposed to finish it. You can re-start the mission how many times you'd like (unless you already completed one of the objectives), and you can even re-plan it (change equipment, starting location, ...), but you are supposed to have to complete it when you start it.

But, there's a method that allows you to do so. If you lose your connection, a message appears, and you will be dropped to the main menu, in offline mode.
So, if you really want to do it, you can disconnect your internet cable, wait for the message to pop-up, and go back to the main menu, and return later.

Gaming is one of the few things I CAN do when I get sick.

And speaking of, I just got over some kind of pre-bronchitis infection and cold. Wish it was this week, so I can try out the new stuff in Destiny. Instead, I played the hell out of Risk of Rain 2 (something about the frantic nature raising my blood pressure felt good) and Celeste.

Then I did some random installs of stuff I would try and not be in the mood for.
