I never thought I'd see the day were I'm more interested in the Microsoft E3 conference, in relation to PC gaming, than the actual PC Gaming Show but yet here we are. If Metro Exodus coming to Gamespass PC ends up being true and actually available I might plump for that too, for a few months anyway. Plus with Halo MCC, Gears 5 and others etc coming to Steam I'm good 😎

I have 0 Larian games and lots of anime games, I must be on lashman shit list
Me as well. Zero Larian games, and zero interest in that style. In-fact I think I have the "Isometric" tag on my blacklist lol. And if I go to Larian publisher page most of the games are set to ignore. :p

That weird viewpoint of those games just doesn't make me feel involved enough I guess. One thing I always liked about the Total War games is the ability to zoom up close on the action at least.
you are both dead to me ... DEAD!!!

Yay! Now on to hard bastard difficulty! :heroblob:



Still don't think I'm ready for the difficulty bump but that last run on hard went pretty smoothly, didn't even need a heart starter, so we'll see. 🤞
... aaaaaaaand added ... CONGRATS!!! :D

I want to help pay for the server costs but somehow the donate button is missing? :wd_time:
yeah, the button gets disabled when the goal is reached .... there's no point in raising more money than is absolutely needed each month ;)

It's probably disabled when the goal has been reached
correct :)

Is there a way to donate other than paypal? I dont have paypal.
unfortunately not :( as far as i know - xenforo does support other methods, but they all require a US account ... but you CAN use a credit card with paypal - you don't have to have an actual paypal account



Heh looking at the news section for Thimbleweed Park on Steam.
lmao ... so much for auto-aggregating news :p

I have lots of anime games and all Larian games except D:OS2, do those things cancel themselves out? :thinking-face:

I should play them more though. I'm somewhere in the middle of a Divine Divinity playthrough (the game is still really good and looks great on higher resolutions), had a ton of fun with Ego Draconis (don't think I've ever completed it yet though, maybe I should start another round...), should play more Dragon Commander (so far I've mostly played some casual multiplayer with a friend, but not much the campaign), and I'm at the beginning in D:OS1 as well...
Great games though.



Anyway, it's Humble Monthly day!
I haven't bought the bundle, so I don't really care about the remaining mystery games, but fingers crossed the next Early Unlocks are something I want (read: anime).

well, you can keep it in the war chest for next month. :wd_p:. Those moneyhats aren't going to pay for itself, you know.
Yeah, the website needs to start paying users to keep them around.
I have been Meta exclusive since last year, and I still haven't seen any money. Epic pays, why shouldn't Meta? I'm not cheap, you know. :face-with-stuck-out-tongue-and-tightly-closed-eyes:

While I like the idea of us donating just enough to keep the lights on, the only worry is that what happens if one month everyone's on vacation or spent all their money during a steam sale and the site doesn't have enough?

A friendly reminder that the MetaCouncil forums have a Steam community group:


We recently had almost 300 new members join us, but barely anyone joined our Steam group. :grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes:

we'll manage :p
I still think we should have a separate "pot", outside of the monthly hosting expenses, for any needs that arise.

Important stuff, like gathering funds to bribe Wbacon to convince Capcom to re-release the rest of the Phoenix Wright series on Steam and consoles. ;)

Or, to buy me a kick-ass birthday gift, since my birthday is next month, and I totally deserve it. :grimacing-face:

(just kidding, lashman)

Since you mentioned it, why the heck Steam hasn't added the option to gift games to anyone in the world, with the sender paying the difference if needed due to regional pricing? I'd love to gift a lot of people but can't since they have added the 10% restriction.

because they're volvo - they start doing something cool ... and then never go back to it ever again (unless they ABSOLUTELY have to) ... see: 80% of steam's features :p

OH FUCK YES. I'll cancel my plans of moving out if it means an official western release of Investigations 2 and the Great AAs.

I caved in and gambled on this month humble. I mean 3$ discount and it can't get worse than a multiplayer shoo... I've fucked up, right ? :loudly-crying-face:

edit-
Is there any way to make a pad keybind in order to display fps in games ? MSI Afterburner and HWInfo don't seem to recognize any pad input. What year is it ? Am I forced to use a fucking software that translate pad to a keyboard in order to do this most basic of things ?
I use NVIDIA Shadowplay to record gameplay and to monitor the frame rate. I don't think there is a way to bind the frame rate display toggle directly to the controller, but you can create a Steam controller profile to bind the toggle to the controller.
Toki is now available derExperte
Wasn't this supposed to be delayed? I have enough games on my plate now but I love the way the game looks, and Greenmangaming discount isn't making it any easier for me :LOL:

will probably do own thread for it later on
Nice! For some reason I remembered this game a couple of month ago and was wondering whether it's alive or not. Will keep an eye on how it develops in early access.

What I played of Pixel Noir is a lot of fun.
It looks like a SNES RPG (with turn-based combat), a retro urban setting, some noir elements, and rather good pixel art and soundtrack.

Well, Yooka Laylee goes directly to the wishlist. The first game had by far the best controls since the N64 era, but a fucked up level design. This one seems like it would help a lot.

Destroy all Humans should join in, but somehow I can't find the game on Steam to wishlist it :steam_cleanseal:
