I reached the arboretum which is like... I don't know, 50%?
And yeah, I got typhon powers. I knew about the transformation power, that was a big deal during the promotion of the game.
And... for me that's a problem too. Everything that you unlock is either more "you can do what you want! To reach the exact same goal 5 meters away, you can hack, brute force it, transform into a cup, glue gun it".
Cool, you have multiple ways to complete your objective. Less cool, it's factually the same result with a different animation.
Or you get new combat abilities. Which are more powerful than the complete garbage weapons, but not in any way more fun, like the grenades. The ennemies are braindead, and they are absurdly samey. You can't just slap a fire modifier on a phantom and call that different, that's Borderlands level of wank.
The sound design for the combat, the AI, the hitboxes (to be fair, it makes sense that mimic bodies are wriggling around but...)... the gameplay is just terrible. Getting more options (you can grenade or explode from your body! Big difference. Again, like before for exploration, you get a lot of options that ultimately do the same thing) that feel just as slow and clunky with zero variety to apply them on, it does not make for very engaging content.
I do enjoy the story and the atmosphere, but it falters in the gameplay department: you don't approach the game in a different way like using air vents, you just blow up the door, or hack it, or sneak through the convenient cup sized opening at eye level.
It feels super gamey, and utterly artificial.
Add to that bad and repetitive combat (dumping 10+ enemies in some rooms doesn't helps either), and it's just a bore. Especially considering how the "loot" is bland as fuck with a broken ass crafting system. more neuromods to unlock rooms giving more neuromods, or the trash chipsets that are actually RNG? Yeesh.
I just feel like the "immersive sim" has not evolved one bit in 20 years.
Arguably, it has degenerated, the new Deus Ex games were just terrible... and we're way past the time were "but the story" is enough to justify a game.
Congrats mate hope it'll work out well for you.
You could totally post from time to time on the Steam new pages thread
Congratulation on your new job!
Last I read it was 33 lost their lives
Stop hating anime!
Check your newest games and see if any of them have cards with good value, as it's generally best to craft boosters for new and popular games.
But looking at the price of the gems, I'd just hold on to them and wait to see how high they can get.
Otherwise, if you have Sekiro, you can craft 2 boosters with 1.000 gems. All normal cards will net you 0,06€ (as they sell for 0,08€), so in total you'll get 0,36€ with 1.000 gems.
I think this is still among the best value.
This doesn't look exciting for me at all
Why did Thor murder all those people? There's no way the guy he launched a thousand feet away survived and I doubt the others he slammed to the ground with his hammer did either.
I think the Marvel movies have clearly abandoned the "thou shalt not kill" commandment of earlier comic book adaptations. They don't usually kill people though, just space aliens. Of course, maybe it's just creative license by Eidos, to fit the equivalent rule in video games : "Thou shall kill anything and everything that moves"
So addicted to dots Underlords!!!! Do I have to start playing Dota now?
Banner Saga Trilogy - Deluxe Pack on Steam
This doesn't have the BS3 dlc and I find it funny that this ver. isn't the top seller....unless it IS but Valve doesn't allow 'complete a bundle' to be among the top sellers so it sets it so that its alternative shows up instead?
That's what I was thinking when I played Artifact non-stop. I played a single bot match and noped out of there real fast.

yeah, but i'm using the original one ... the big one ... no such problems hereIs anyone using the wireless adapter for the Xbox One controller on Windows 10? My adapter is getting really hot after a while, resulting in disconnects and even a slight burn smell
maybe try plugging it into a different USB port?

ahh ... then maybe it's something unique to that model
still - worth trying to plug it into a different port anyway
In my PC
Its "just" a CPU upgrade... I own a GTX 1080
I can feel the envy through the screen

Schnitzel, pls ... i wouldn't even spit on AMDI can feel the envy through the screen
I like the look of this one. It looks a bit like that XBLA game called From Dust (I think). Had lots of fun playing that game.
The Steam Lab banner is gone but you can access those 3 features by clicking that button right there.

edit: Somehow image insert is broken for me again...
OP
My sis has the small one, and yeah, it does get rather hot, but hers hasn't gotten to the point where it disconnects.
I have the older adapter (the bigger one), it doesn't get that hot.

These games are going to be delisted on July 31st. Buy them if you want them. I am going to remind this again before they are going to be delisted.
well the devs said its geting delisted because devs plan to remaster them and selfpublish i think i will rather wait , no need to rush to buy soon to be inferior versions

Regarding those Platine Dispositif games that Rockin' Android published, getting the older versions (if you don't own them already) may be of interest to some.
The developer will apparently publish remastered versions of the games, with some improvements and polish done for some console ports, I believe.
But, in some of these games Rockin' Android made a few changes, or added a few things (like arranged soundtracks) that most likely won't be part of the new versions.
So, it may be worth it to get the older versions.
By the way, the games are now on sale:

Whoa slow down a little there
Your anticipated dedication is nice and let me assure you I'm not a hater, but SAO is the definition of mediocre and forgettable.
Which again doesn't mean you are not allowed to like it, but just keep expectations in check.
Booting up Alternate Jake Hunter to wind down my night for a quick session ... and no resolution list to choose from. Not even a vsync option.
Exited the game, looked into the game directory and it's using Unity engine. Looks like there's some tinkering to be done.

Yeah, it's 1
No need to run, I accept that most people don't care about great immersive sims. It's not a popular genre, you're in fact in the majority.prey was just........ok
Prey was amazing. One day I'll play through it again doing a no-mods/abilities run.
I might even play Mooncrash.
One day.

One day.
I just finished downloading Mooncrash.
Gonna check it out in a bit here.
I kind of want to try out a survival/stealth run. Maybe even put it on Nightmare.
