What.

Why am I not playing this right now.
Metal Wolf? Dang I did not know this weapon was in it if that's the case. I love me some shark guns even if they're rendered in 2000s cgi quality :V

BTW if anyone wants a few games from that shmup bundle, I'll be buying it before it ends and I only want 2 games from it, so I can give the other games away if anyone needs any.

Sekiro for sure but that is the only new game I played all year long thus far...(not counting Castlevania Anniversary). This has been a backlog year for me. Need to buy some more 2019 stuff later this year during black friday and winter sales. Also need to find some time to fuck around with Gamepass since there are a bunch of new titles in that library. I still haven't bothered with it since MS announced the new app.





Bamco better mean Elden Ring gameplay premiere.

Microsoft Studios better mean MCC release dates.

And yea Epic will most likely announce more moneyhats. I can see them yank Code Vein or Surge 2 off the steam store later in sept since both are releasing 2 days apart.

Also probably moneyhats for next year. Best guess will be Dying Light 2 as their next big title.
Well I better order Code Vein right now on Steam then
 
How about a game that's a Steam simulator, like the whole game is just buying games and never playing em and you gotta like mow lawns and stuff to earn money to buy more games
If the game is going to reward you with a custom "Commander GabeN" avatar, I'm in.

It isn't a CA game according to their rep on Reddit

Interesting. No idea what it could be then for it to be considered AAA.
I find it unlikely that Sports Interactive and Amplitude Studios would be working on something that would be considered AAA, so then the options left would be:
  • a game from Relic (though they're also busy with Age of Empires 4, it could be possible I guess?)
  • a game that SEGA is publishing from another developer (like how Sumo Digital developed the all stars racing games)
  • a new announcement from a JP studio, though usually they would have waited for TGS for something like that

I guess that's all I can think of.

Oh yeah, well past where I put it down. I think I played around two hours at most.

Any chance you could just look up either a walkthrough for the boss you're on or a video just to see if others take 15-20 minutes or if you can see that there's something maybe you're missing? But otherwise that sounds pretty shitty because that's far too long for most boss fights, especially in this style of game.
Yea that's what I'd been planning to do, like I said just see if I was missing half the combat or something. I looked at a couple videos and as far as I can see, I'm actually doing things right, the scaling is just fucked. The one normal story mode that I saw (which is what I'm doing) the boss was level 49 vs. my bosses level ~120, and that fight (even though it wasn't like a speedrunner or even let's play) looked way faster. The other one I looked at was the second hardest mode, vs a level 140 boss, and THAT also was faster (he was just doing more damage). So, despite using maps to go hunt down every damage upgrade in the game, the scaling has doomed me to be worse off than the guy that just played through the story without wandering around, I guess. I was even using a damage trick the guy in the 140 level fight wasn't using, although he was way better at not getting hit obviously :P

Bloodstained isn't anyones GOTY? That is the game I'm most bummed about not being able to play.
I've ranted about it a few times but I was massively disappointed with it. I think there's a half dozen metroidvanias off the top of my head I'd rather replay than do NG+ or another playthrough of Bloodstained. It came really close to the SotN perfect mix but they overdid the crafting / RPG stuff and it ruined it for me (because as I learned later, I was hella unlucky mostly, but also because I didn't want to go grind for 5 hours to make up for that).

Most people seem to like it though so I think that just reinforces my point that there's too much RNG if it's possible for the game in a genre I love that's mirrored after one of my favorite games of all time to be not fun for 10+ hours.

Seems using the Mario mod for Sonic Generations locks progress to the mod xp
Either that or I just need to rename the original .exe that I backed up so that the game will recognize the save file.

You can be sure PlayWay S.A. is probably working on that. :grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes:
I mean, they make a simulator out of anything! :p

Wanted to update and thank everyone who offered helpful tips last night with my new PC build problems. I cannot thank you all enough for the help. :cat-heart-blob:

So the good news is that I got it working! I was finally able to get into BIOS and update it. Since then everything seems fine and I should be able to send those spare parts off to my friend soon. :blobcheer:

I have no idea if clearing the CMOS is what helped or if it was pure luck, but whatever it was I'm not complaining!
 
I know we've been spoiled with 3 ports in less than a year and it's only been like 2 months since the last one but fuck, I'm already itching to play another Yakuza. Feels like Kiwami 2 was ages ago. :disappointed-face:

Those remasters still haven't been confirmed for western release, right?
 


Game leaves early access tomorrow. I blind bought it off Humble just now, let's see if I can squeeze it into my play time in the near future.
I have been making some good strides on clearing games on my backlog.

Yep, it's been almost a whole a year since Y3 remaster got released. They're probably focusing on Judgement PC port and Shin Yakuza localization at the moment
 
The hog thing on Twitter stopped being funny. Why does everyone has to run everything to the ground, jeez.

Clearing cmos. That has always worked for me lol.. Especially helping others. Jumper or battery method?

You know what can make your game stand out? Voice Acting. I'm sure that it's not cheap, but when done right it does "pay off".

I was playing this one game and there is no VA in the game and all of a sudden it gets to this one part and you do hear a character talking. So out of what I have played in that game that was the only time there was VA.

Yep, it was honestly one of the first things I should have done, but by the time I thought about it I was already tired, hungry and had a bunch of cuts on various fingers. :LOL:

And it was the battery method by the way, super simple. :thumbsupblob:

Little bit confused..... Are we allowed to talk about games NOT coming to steam or available on steam during release here?

Should there be a separate thread?

Its basically the official pc gaming thread with steam in the title, so all but anime is allowed.

Wondering if Arma3 is worth the 12CAD for Humble if i dont do multiplayer? 2 was fun but i bounced off it pretty hard after a couple hours.

Whew there is a raging hate "clue" around these parts for anime... :(

Playstation games kosher or only if they cross with PC releases? I know this is a pc forum and hell I know of this place only bc I was part of the PC gaming community elsewhere but maybe some console discussions? Probably best that there is a new thread......

I think we can discuss almost everything on any platform in this thread. Just yesterday we're discussing Fire Emblem. Having said that, it's also important to be aware that corporate bootlicking "Nintendo/Sony/EGS can't do no wrong" etc. is still frowned upon (it's even in the TOS).
