Well, I'm finally back home after a whole week in the mountains, thanks a lot for all your amazing answers, I'm glad you liked the thread, I will update it with the missing asset as soon as tomorrow 
I won Lifeless Planet in spiel's giveaway, so thanks!
I remember using a trading bot years ago to get all the cards I needed, I think it was through Home :: Steam Card Exchange but I'm not sure.
It's changed to after Q4 for me now too
Oh well, gives me time to save up for that and a 4080

Phew I’m still Q4. I would kick myself so much if I didn’t get it this year, since I had to cancel one year old place in the que and repreorder
More Sunday bounce around coming up in about 5 minutes. Going to start off with a little Geoguessr today and then we'll probably give a few different roguelikes a shot.
Just finished Stray, really good, not sure if it would be very replayable thouigh.
For that you need to buy Beach time triple pack DLC costumes.Good choice!
Totally not a "weeb game" though
So I started playing Trials of Mana, I only installed it like... a year ago.
It's cute and colorful, and so ugly at the same time, I think it's the most inconsistent game I've played
I wonder how much of that is due to being such a 1/1 remake of a 2D game in 3D, there are some pretty baffling decisions in where you can go or jump sometimes. But it's pretty minor.
And it really is a baby level game, so simple and easy! It has its charm.
And then you reach the boss Zehnoa.
And it turns into

That reminds me, I have to finish Trails of Mana (SD2) on the Switch Collection some day. I was pretty far into the game, then I got the Steam Deck and then did not touch my Switch in 5 months..So I started playing Trials of Mana, I only installed it like... a year ago.

I hope it looks nice enough like Samurai Shodown but of course nothing 3D will come close to matching the last game, unless they go all in, ArcSys AAA style...

From a very quick look, of pre-orders because of the ¥100,000 yen price tag. The 512 seems to not be as popular and the 64GB and the 256 are seen as more decent for the price.
Tekken 8 just got teased, using Unreal Engine, PLEASE stay away from EGS.
Great work so far!
btw, there's always one of those people in the thread who needs their eyes checked.
I can't think of a single Bamco game ever released on the EGS, despite being the JP publisher with the most UE titles in the last years
The remake was too much 1:1. A lot of things that worked in 2D were not translated well into 3DSo I started playing Trials of Mana, I only installed it like... a year ago.

But overall the game was good.
For the boss fight
I think you use water magic to void it's bullshit fire attacks. If you don't have water magic you can use items that casts water magic
Bamco uses UE for almost everything, at least I can’t remember a game that didn’t use it, and so far they’ve been good with releases at most they’ll do Steam + EGS

I'm idling cards with Idle Master, but I can't see how to be hidden with it? Don't want people to see notifications of me starting games over and over again.XD
Set you status to Invisible, you will be seen as offline and no one will see get notifications anymore
The prices themselves seem actually quite consistent with the following formula: Take USD price + Add 10% VAT + about 30$ margin. The latter I assume might be due to either transportation costs or it could be the cut that goes to the distributor.
For example: 512 GB Deck USD Price: $649. If we convert that to Yen we get ¥87607,54. Now we add 10% VAT and we get ¥96368.294. This leaves around ¥4000 to the final price, which is about $30. So I guess that's Komodo's cut or other assorted costs.
This looks pretty good. HL2 inspired.
Well in the end it wasn't Pink eye it was foreign object in my eye XD They removed it so it should get better soon i hope. And so far i like Trials of Arise, they didn't went full Japanese yet.
New KOFXV Team Pass 2
First team from that team pass:
(The next one will be Team Samurai, this fall)

So, pre-ordered my Deck a little while ago. However I went for the 64gb version thinking it was all I can afford. Now I am tempted to cancel and pre order the middle one. But really don’t want to lose my slot.
so can’t make up my mind on which way to go.

I wanted to talk about this game here after I played the demo a few days ago but I got lazy.
I thought the demo was really good. And when I found out the whole thing is made by just one person and what the full game contains, that rating got upgraded to phenomenal. As mentioned, it takes a lot of cues from Half Life 2. The weapons provide that familiar HL2 combat feedback. You have a permanent gravity gun ability that is used for light puzzle solving but mostly for combat. Picking up things and throwing them into enemies is still fun all these years later. The enemies themselves seem inspired by the Combine. Weapons have limited ammo so you're likely to swap them often with the weapons your enemies drop. That's a bit like Halo. It's a very decent shooter.
The game was in early access on Itch which is why nobody ever heard of it. The developer released it on Steam when it reached version 1.0 but I'm fairly certain it's not doing too well. I would encourage folks to try the demo out if you enjoy shooters. It's quite generous and should provide at least an hour of gameplay. The demo is a build that is a few months older than the final version of the game so there are apparently a lot of QOL upgrades and reworked features missing but it should be good enough to give you an idea about the game.
The 1.0 release is actually still not complete. The campaign is supposed to be three acts and but only two have been released. The demo is the entire first act (which took me 80 minutes to complete). In addition to the campaign, the game also has a secondary, open world, non linear mode similar to Stalker. The developer estimates that the campaign should last 4-5 hours and the Stalker mode will be 10-12 hours for the main objectives and some side stuff. I saw some folks on the Steam forum who were only playing the Stalker mode and didn't even bother with the campaign.
The demo was enough to convince me to buy the game even though I've not gotten around to playing it yet. I feel like it deserves to be more successful than it currently seems to get. Try the demo if you can.

Pre-ordered Cult of the Lamb and Plague Tale. Lamb demo was great and the first Plague Tale was a big joy.
I say keep the slot and upgrade the SSD yourself in the future.
I’m sorry to say you should cancel and re-order. I regret not going 512, but 256 is manageable. 64 looks like a bad joke.
Evidently it all depends on what games you expect to play on it, but yeah…
Curious to what happened to Where the Heart Leads, was excited for it.
It still has a SteamDB entry which you can use to check out the Steam page with a demo, but the game doesn' appear by searching in the store and it is removed from EGS too.

I got a good SD card for my 64gb unit and it runs totally fine. I don't want to install too many games on it because it will just make me not finish any games.
I really enjoyed A Plague Tale, up to a point. It started to feel less puzzle-y as it went on, and I found the last level super frustrating/stressful.
I do love the world, visuals, story and characters though, so I'm sure I will get the sequel at some point.
