I'm not going to give them a click but I do believe the store could use a redesign.
Skulls & Bones (Ubisoft pirate game) apparently being rebooted as an online service (it wasn't one already? LOL).
I shouldn’t have to manage an inventory. I shouldn’t have to hide that inventory to prevent weirdos messaging me about fake guns for a game I last played over a decade ago. I shouldn’t have to figure out what to do with digital trading cards
Interesting. Maybe the rumors are wrong then, Bloodborne is not coming to PC. :/
Directly contradicts PCGamingInquisition by the way....
This article embodies what's so wrong about games. Everyone wants to spin anything as a negative.
Why would QLOC port Bloodborne?
I would expect FROM to port it and Playstation mobile being the publisher like Horizon. And the same for the enhanced PS5 version.
Time will tell I guess. If there is one Sony game that PC gamers would pay top dollar for it's definitely Bloodborne. I think it would be a waste not to do it but of course alongside a PS5 Remaster.Well if Bloodborne PC isn't announced during State of Play that is rumored to happen in august I will lose all hope.
And don't do that eye-emoji react thing to this post. I need more than "Bloodborne PC is happening".
To boil his argument down: The store and sales have meta elements that prevent him from easily finding, buying and playing his games. Steam the application and sales therein, as well as the games themselves have been gamified like the slow drip in an online shooter with the creation of all the search tool and inventory gubbins now thrown at you.![]()
Durante's guest-articles were good though!I honestly can't remember a time when PC Gamer wasn't a joke, or gave a shit about PC as a platform. Maybe in the days of print, back when Everquest ruled the world, and Age of Empires up to the first Sims games period of PC Games they really gave a shit. I think most PC-centric publications moved with the advertising dollars when publishers declared PC dead and moved all their efforts and games to the console space, and no one really stuck with what the actual PC platform was doing and the games that were coming out.
To this day we have a lot of "PC" sites that still get surprised about how popular or succesful certain games and genres are. I can definitely say that PC Gamer hit rock bottom when they called Dragon Age 2 the RPG of the decade though. That was what really cemented their bottom tier status.
Eh, I trust InquisitorAles . Things will be fiiine~

Era to DuranteDurante is a treasure, we are lucky to have him here and out there in the world for sure.
[The] rewards [...] are either complicated financial incentives to push you into spending more money than you otherwise would, or shiny baubles for those who apparently use Steam as a kind of social network for people who miss the days of MySpace pages. Do those people actually exist? They’d better—the entire platform is geared towards them at this point.
No one should have to have a conversation with their mother about how to sell digital trading cards.
I mean you choose who you want to believe.

Here's an easy solution: Don't use any of that then, idiot.
Nah bro. it has to cater to ME and ME only. Everyone else is a fuckin weirdo.Here's an easy solution: Don't use any of that then, idiot.
PCGamer said:The store is less usable now than it’s ever been, utterly clogged with nonsense and shovelware with incredibly poor moderation.
I haven't read the article and I'm not going to do it. PC Gamer has let me down twice recently so not going to fall for a third.[The] rewards [...] are either complicated financial incentives to push you into spending more money than you otherwise would, or shiny baubles for those who apparently use Steam as a kind of social network for people who miss the days of MySpace pages.

There's more than just that. There's a huge black market within Steam which only few know/manage well. I mean, when there's people making a living off Steam and its meta economy there's certainly obscure things happening in the background. And I agree with Wok on his suspicious. There are major consumers who not really play games but play "The Steam Game" as an example.It is true. And these people not only exist, but I suspect that they are the biggest spenders on Steam.

Let's go back to running executable files directly and manually downloading patches why don't we?
Those would exist anyway on top of having to fuck with finding your way around the game.I get the joke, and this might be an unpopular opinion:
But I'd do that if it meant I would not have to deal with DRM, strange anti cheat software that is running with level zero privileges and cosmetic micro transactions.
Where I draw the line is boot discs, config.sys and autoexec.bat configuration, manual IRQ handling, expanded, extended memory and all the other "fun" stuff.
He is a troll: click-bait and trolling on social media to increase page impressions on PC Gamer.

Or same way Durante said they weren't working on Persona 4 Golden, and when Persona 4 Golden released it turned out he had 30 hours spent in game alreadyNot working because the work is already finished![]()
Sigh, not this shit again.... I'm sorry, but Lance McDonald has no proven track-record either, he's just a modder and youtuber who's a big fan of Souls series, so his "I can confirm" statements are as good as mine. And when I asked him what exactly made him so confident about this and can he share more details, he simply ignored me:

He is a modder for the game. And I believe he looks at the files of that game and some other stuff. That being said I doubt he is the type of person that would have contact with people at QLOC.who the hell is this randommcdonald guy anyway ? When people suddenly believe him more than all the known and trustable insaders that hinted at this ?

I've sad it many times before, I fully trust my sources and they have never failed me before when it comes to info about unannounced projects. And as it was said here already, everyone is free to choose what you want to believe. It's still coming, it's still being actively tested, no solid dates yet, and that's all that I can share for now. Once I'll have more I'll share it as soon as possible.
Some other PC projects huh. I wonder what Sony have planned on the PC side. Days Gone ? The Last Guardian ? Spider-Man ?the lance guy is simply just a modder who did the shoddy 60fps bloodborne thing recently and completey went into extreme fanboy when the pc rumors started.
i cant go into full details but yea bloodborne on pc is certainly happening, there was some tests conducted a few months ago and qloc is the dev/with another partner, if all things do go well we should start seeing/hearing some announcements sony side about some other pc projects soonish
you can have contacts at a dev but a department like qloc they are always working on multiple port projects at once.
Wow I have this game too.
Checking the Steam Page it say
[UWSL][UWSL]Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?[/UWSL][/UWSL]
“The final version of the game will be available in May 2016.”
Well at least he is still updating the game?
Aside from the 2020 hindsight of the massive amount of sexism, PCAccelerator was my go to pc magazine.PC Zone was the better UK PC magazine anyway.
