The English beta is out for Banner of the Maid.

Steam :: 圣女战旗 Banner of the Maid :: English Localization available for open test on the test branch

Bonjour! It’s been a while since the launch of Banner of the Maid. For the past few months we’ve been busy fixing bugs, adding new contents, improving gameplay experiences, porting to consoles and pushing forward the English localizations simultaneously all by our own. As you can see, we are...

Oh neat, I check periodically but wasn't really paying that much attention, maybe I'll finally grab it soon.

Steam is not letting me post my Disco Elysium review right now.

Gaben also catching up in terms of user reviews?

I'll post it here for now so I don't lose it:

I had that happen to me with a review last week, I logged a ticket and the support answer was, to paraphrase, "it happens sometimes, best work around is post a very short review and then edit in and save the full one" which actually did work for me.

The Division 2 sold 10 times as many copies on Uplay as the first game

PC accounted for 27 percent of Ubisoft's total net bookings last year, a major increase over the previous year.

I really, really hope that Ubisofts revenue on pc took a nosedive after boycotting Steam.

Yeah PS5's will still be faster than that. Remember, faster than anything on PC market.

Poor Micron, all that research for nothing.

 

[fantomena]

With the PS5, Cerny will personally come home to you and bring over some fluid chili to spice up the PS5 SSD.

PS4
Chili'n home to you


You can get that idea for free Sony as long as you give me Bloodborne 2.

 

[madjoki]

It's just PCIE3, PS4 will have PCIE4 equivalent, so it shall be 18GB second. Now because GPU is connected via infinity fabric, GPU slot can be used for having two of these in raid for total of 36GB/s.

 

[YourFriendMaynard]

WHAT?

I know some of these terms tbqh

Fluid chilli?????

Arkham Asylum is by far the "Greenest" game in history. And by that it mean it looks like I am playing 10 feet under water in a very algae filled swamp.

 

[Nabs]

Decent 2D platforming horror game. Often on sale for 50-75% off. I'd wait.

Also lol, anyone can make fun of Mavis Becon Teaches Typing but those of us who have put hours into that shit know, its no fucking joke. Plus side is that I don't need a number pad anymore as I've trained myself to type 123456790-& * $ and so forth without having to hunt and peck.

Sad the Steam version gutted the games. Those games got me

If Ubi comes back to Steam due to dissapointing sales for Division 2 and Breakpoint on Uplay and EGS I will laugh..hard...a lot.

 

[yuraya]

If Ubi comes back to Steam due to dissapointing sales for Division 2 and Breakpoint on Uplay and EGS I will laugh..hard...a lot.

Guaranteed it will happen when they used language like "Year 1 content" for Divsion 2 around launch.

There will be year 2 content and that EGS 12 month period will end. They will push it hard on steam.

How do i give away keys on this site? Have a few from fanatical bundle yesterday.

You can try the Giveaways thread. You can hide them until reacted, so people have to thumbs it up to see the key.

THE BIG UNDERLORDS UPDATE IS HERE

€: It was already mentioned!? how the fuck did i miss that lol

 

[Tizoc]

Anyone know anything about this? Just rolled up on my Steam store page and it looks alright.

Wait
You don't know about Little Nightmares? Really? It's a good horror adventure game with some pretty dark and creepy themes. Really solid game overall. Also has a mobile spin off which is good in its own right.

I've finishe AI:The Somnium Files, I have a question about the people who already finished it (to avoid spoilers) :

AI SOMNIUM SPOILERS

One thing I didn't fully get is:

• Why Saito Psynced with the mafia boss? Just to test it?
• What did go wrong in the psync? Is it because it was a prototype or it was explained earlier in the story? I don't remember it

I hope there's little more to "just wanna test it" because the story is cool and the twists too, but the obvious question is "if it was just for testing, what did Saito expected???".
I agree with someone that the flowchart seems kind of forced, at least because it's only hinted on how the memories are shared and not actually explained like in the 999 games. Good game overall.

I snatched up Unexplored. Thanks arts&crafts

 

[fantomena]

Thx. Got the 2nd one.

Trine!

Alas my GTX 970M is struggling with this game, and its SSAA is not good enough to cut down on various jaggies ToT

 

[Deleted member 113]

FunktionJCB if I buy the blood money requiem dlc for the first Hitman, will I receive the content in Hitman 2 as well?

I'm not sure.

That content is available in HITMAN 2 if you own the HITMAN 2 GOTY Legacy Pack (if you never owned the previous game, HITMAN) or the HITMAN 2 GOTY Upgrade Legacy Pack (if you owned the previous game, but not the GOTY edition).
If you own any of the two, you have that content.

But, if you own just the previous game, but did not buy the HITMAN 2 GOTY Upgrade Legacy Pack, I'm not sure if buying the Blood Money Requiem Pack for the first game gives you that content in HITMAN 2.

 

[derExperte]

World's Dawn

Thanks for that one!

Looks like Steam might have Halloween event called "ZdogSpookyHouse"

Ubi 2 weeks after Watch Dogs Legion releases: "Watch Dogs Legion is a huge success on our service Uplay and the Epic Games Store. We are very happy for our fans who have managed to make the third iteration in the Watch Dogs series a success".

4 months after: "Watch Dogs Legion's sales failed to meet expectations, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot announces in a fiscal report briefing. More info regarding the huge sales success for Ubisofts new IP Gods & Monsters will come soon.".

New non DLC soundtracks looks like this:

Help me out with lossless scaling. I am trying to use it with Trine 4 to see if I can do downsampling/downscaling from 3840x2060 at least but it makes the image larger than my monitor screen :S Is it mainly best used for older games or can it be used with normal games? If the latter is possible what should I do?

EDIT: Force resize doesn't seem to do much, at least when I try at 4x :x
EDIT2: My GPU is a GTX 970M btw.

 

[Durante]

I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but if it's downsampling, is there a reason you aren't using DSR?

actually yeah that's pretty bang on from my understanding of it too

Spoiler

1) yeah I also just took it as he was just wanting to test it, kinda odd. Probably assumed he could go back?
2) I believe it was mentioned in some dialogue much earlier in the game that that PSync machine was a prototype, and Saito probably didn't know that

 

[Tizoc]

I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but if it's downsampling, is there a reason you aren't using DSR?

GTX 970M did not get DSR option. It is in particular Mobile GTX 10 and higher cards.

That actually worked, thanks!

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. That sucks.

Edit: it seems like DSR is supported, but not in combination with built-in laptop displays and Optimus. Probably some scan-out limitation with how it interacts with the integrated graphics. Still sucks, but more understandable at least.

Is the Enhanced Edition of Planescape Torment good? Im thinking about playing it after Im done with Disco Elysium.

 

[Knurek]

Is the Enhanced Edition of Planescape Torment good? Im thinking about playing it after Im done with Disco Elysium.

It's a so-so game, with mediocre writing and extremely good battles. Durante can confirm.

 

[Rando10123]

Is the Enhanced Edition of Planescape Torment good? Im thinking about playing it after Im done with Disco Elysium.

yea it's good, and it'll also include the original if you get it on GOG, so you can try modding the original and see if it's a better experience for you.

4 months after: "Watch Dogs Legion's sales failed to meet expectations, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot announces in a fiscal report briefing. More info regarding the huge sales success for Ubisofts new IP Gods & Monsters will come soon.".

That's how it usually goes for many 'super successful' games. Publishers will report shipped numbers or obfuscate things with stuff like "fastest selling in the first three days". Then, a month down the line the supposedly massively successful game goes on sale for half off.

 

[Mivey]

Poor Micron, all that research for nothing.

They should have just "coded to the metal", everyone knows that makes your hardware 10 times faster without any other discernible reason for why it should be faster.

It's a so-so game, with mediocre writing and extremely good battles. Durante can confirm.

 

[YourFriendMaynard]

Needs moar jpegs
I don't know why sony/Xbox/Nintendo fans adopt fucking technical terms and run them into the ground/make them buzzwords/memes or what not but hot goddamn it makes me want to burn things down
E: actually on second thought Nintendo fans on an another level fandom hell.

Sony/Xbox console fans make Nintendo fans seem sane. jesus

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO

Suda51 and Swery working on a horror indie game, to be published by Devolver Digital, working title is "Hotel Barcelona"

just announced in this live stream. horror indie game, budget of around 1 million dollars, published by devlover digital. will update with more info as it comes. edit 1: edit 2: edit 3: edit 4: edit 5:

www.resetera.com

Did this end up being fake? Hard to tell considering the thread was locked...

Humble Store is selling Epic Store keys (not Rockstar Launcher keys) for Red Dead Redemption 2

First of all if mods think that this is not thread worthy please close the thread. So it looks like that Epic made a deal with T2/Rockstar and Humble Store on top of that 1 month delay for Steam version. So instead of getting Social Club key as it would be normal (GTA V key is Social Club one)...

www.resetera.com

10 buckers says Humble monthly has EGS keys before the end of the year.

... And the moment I cannot claim Steam keys and am only provided with EGS keys is the month I unsub. I've stuck with them even through the trash months, but cutting out Steam keys would be the deal breaker for me.

I really, really hope that Ubisofts revenue on pc took a nosedive after boycotting Steam.

Me as well. Yet I am told on the other forum that such a wish will just ensure Ubi keeps taking the Epic contract money to "cushion" the loss.

 

[YourFriendMaynard]

Bring all the games to steam

Except triple AAA shlooters

THE WORST

 

[Theswweet]

It's been too freaking long - been so busy with review copies for the last few months I haven't really had the chance to post.

...been playing a bunch of smaller games lately now that I'm sick of RPGs for a bit. Played through Inside which sure was a trip at 1440p/144hz. Also playing Batman Arkham Asylum which has 100% not aged that well.

 

[YourFriendMaynard]

I genuinely can't deal with artstyle of any of the Arkham series

It's too much for me to handle

Grimdark batman is too much

bring back Adam West batman

 

[lashman]

It's been too freaking long - been so busy with review copies for the last few months I haven't really had the chance to post.

welcome back!

I envy you guys who can use Game Pass

Considering most (if not all) Game Pass games are UWP in everything but the executable, I failed to see how it's enviable except for the privilege of playing the game a little early. Cheap isn't always better.

You can't even mod the game without the developer's involvement, something which goes against the nature of PC itself.
