Also up to 3x the performance of the 3090 TI only with the fake frames DLSS3 thing, and only in Cyberpunk. Meanwhile F1 22 and Plague Tale Requiem are apparently also with DLSS3, but they're more like 1.2~1.3x? If these 2 are with DLSS3 as well, this doesn't look good.

They're not even consistent about the whole "tie" thing. xD

This is one of those giveaways that i would kinda like to enter but i know that i won't play game anytime soon so i skip it because it's not fair for those who will play it right now XD
Small rant:
Greedfall is a solid 12h long game that gets diluted over it's >30h length. I can't describe the despair I felt when I looked up a walkthrough in hopes to confirm I was nearing the last mission only to find out I wasn't even at the midpoint...
/rant
Also, got a few new toys:
qomp | Stacklands | Prodigal | Tenderfoot Tactics | Penko Park

Valve please... i need steam controller 2.0

For a steam controller v2 they’d just need to take the steam deck and yank out the screen, it would be perfect.
I hated the Steam Controller with a passion after trying it but a steam deck-like as a controller would be up my alley

I just got a new Razer keyboard in the mail that I had forgotten because of some IRL stuff happening (bad luck). Nice surprise, it must've fallen off a truck or something. Was dirt cheap ($30USD) and still sealed! I'm almost impressed with myself...LOL
Bethesda really loves giving their games away.
Crysis Remastered is so weird, I can't tell if I've hit enemies or not.
Played Ass Creed 1 for 4h and it was more than enough honestly. Can't understand how they made 100 of them so far.
whats Hitman 3?
Dont you mean Hitman: World of Ass?
Community - Steam Winter Sale Haul | 2022
The sales end in a few days so let's post what games we've bought and will sit indefinitely in our backlogs DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT CrossCode Vampire Survivors: Legacy of the Moonspel Where the Water Tastes Like Wine Emily is Away

Easy for me, I dont want HITMAN 3
currently having the worst time of my life, as I am anxiously awaiting the results of my exams - in which the faith of which decides if I will continue to live my life peacefully, or if I will emigrate to the mountains out of shame
however, in my period of absolute stress, and as an attempt to calm down yet another one of these anxious episodes (in which my life will be entirely ruined if it goes wrong), I have gotten two new games I would love to write about:
No More Heroes 3
Game is a joyride in terms of battle mechanics, as the battling is very smooth and cool. It's very simple - you slice enemies, you can do wrestling moves on them, and you can also do various special moves on your Death Glove, such as a drop-kick, time stopper, projectile rain, and shoving away enemies. In the free-world place, it's a bit more empty, but there are various side missions, collectables, and some "special" side missions with dialogue and all of that. Overall, the game is pretty good, but it's a game you can't play for 5-10 minutes, you'll probably have to settle in for a good while to play it enjoyably.te
Teardown
Teardown is a game where there exists almost no restrictions - the only real restriction that exists is the amount of ammo you have left on your equipment. You can do anything you want, as long as you fulfill the requirements of a mission. Each mission requires that you plan it out, but due to there being no restrictions, you can play each mission however you want it, resulting in usually unique playthroughs for every player.
The missions aren't also extremely advanced in "thinking", so you can make everything from intricate plans (for example, launch a car into the second floor of a villa by driving it fast up a hill, in which you eject the car at the perfect time to actually reach the floor above it so you can save time), to simple plans such as destroying a wall to access something in a place.
You expect the game to be graphically intense, but somehow the devs managed to make it run alright. You can expect some stuff here and there, but usually it goes fine, especially on my little laptop here which handles medium/high settings nicely. You could play it for 20-30 minutes and do a mission, but you could also play it for 5-10 minutes by just launching the sandbox and going absolutely ham with infinite ammo.
Honestly, Teardown is an amazing game.

anyways, here's the run down of how things are going atm, in smaller text so it's not obligatory to read, and another font for dramatic effect:
Currently, the situation is kind of dire - the situation in question being the grading of my exams. I will get grades back on my exams every day around 12 PM from now on until all of the grades are announced, something I believe would take 2-4 days. I have already gotten one back [1], but in general, I'm not worrying about most of these grades, I worry primarily about the last one within Graphicsprogramming. The exam was a home-exam / project that lasted three days, which was an extremely small amount of time [2], and due to this small amount, I submitted basically spaghetti-code with no comments, as there was really no time left - it just works. My primary worry lies here: you can probably guess that code which is more pasta than ravioli isn't a good sight, so I hope that it goes well here.
[1]: C in Operative Systems, which is relatively nice and average
[2]: Our exam was constructed alike a prior assignment we had, just more complicated, and for that, we got two entire weeks - half of the class failed even with that time, oh boy

seems like Mewgenics is tactical RPG now
steam users made the 1 choice they HAD to make. I'm proud of them for once.
I’m not too mad about FF7R winning best soundtrack because it’s a damned good soundtrack, but P5R’s is better.

Indeed, as good as the music is in other games like P5R, FF7R has one of the best ost's ever. It got my vote as well but it was a tough choice.

I had a co-worker who was so excited about mewgenics in 2009-20010
Sonic Frontiers got robbed.

7Remakes OST is much more forgettable than the originals, certainly my biggest criticism of the game
Vampire Survivors keeps getting robbed
I actually think those prices will drop to around MSRP relatively quickly. The 4080 is a bit below MSRP (in €) now.

Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit.
People remember 7Remake ost probably because they keep playing the Tifa and Aeris theme over and over, lol.

Yup any other year I'd have voted for Persona 5, but it had the misfortune of going up against the greatest of all time. Kinda funny how that worked out considering both are late appearances on PC despite releasing in different years.
Jeez, January seems barren at first glance. Between games that have everything to prove like Forspoken and One Piece, and Remakes of great games I feel no real desire to replay like Dead Space.
But I didn't look too much into it, and surprise indie games release left, right and center these days.

Card still won't have a decent value then though.
I keep the ones I think I would use, the others I just turn to gems to then sell as a bag of gems. Don't have the energy to sell them one by one.
Didn't the gem market crash when the point shop was introduced?
I never really got around to understanding it. Every item gave like so few gems. And you needed like thousands to make a sack? And everytime you made gems they created a new separate stack for some reason?

FunnyJay Well the winter sale thingies give 100 gems per item so you pretty quickly get enough for a bag. And different stacks, I haven't had that problem in a very long time. I could happen if you craft badges from cards that bought recently and thus on trade cooldown, then the items are in cooldown too and if turned to gems the gems are on cooldown, that's when they go into a different stack.
