I'm more offended about CP2077 preorder price, tbh.

I remember paying less than $50 AUD for either TW2 or TW3 with a preorder discount. How times has changed.
Yeah, CDPR used to be the good guy when it comes to pricing. I guess this is the price of a well-growing PC market.

I don't always follow and whistlist a game at the same time, but Insomnia is a sole exception. Still waiting for that official controller support update.

WTF is this article of the top sellers (saw it on the Octopath hub)?

RPS weekly charts are mostly "joke" articles because they find it boring to write about the same games every week (like GTA V, how many copies can be sold???? Are people just rebuying it over and over?)

And regarding preorders, RPS has crusaded against preorders for years.

And they have a point, why buy something you have no idea of whether it's worth it at all in the end? It's not like the copies will run out on release day...

I never got so far in Oxygen Not Included that I never needed to learn how to do things properly, but I have a good game going now and I'm looking into how to do things and wow it's super complicated haha. Selfcoding a Wordpress site was easier!
What day are you? I gave up at 60...

Do people who got Underlords from family and friends key also get extra keys?
As far as I can see you don't. Looks like you get them from the Battlepass which doesn't seem like F&F have. I can't see a way in game to get additional keys.

Uninstall/remove all mods and reinstall the game.

Depending on how long it has been since you last played it, it might be that the mods you have installed are outdated/not compatible with the current version of TW3. You'll have to install the updated mods (if the creators bothered to update them).
I already reinstalled everything and I last played a year ago when it was same patch.

Modding TW3 is a PITA. The window says

Error [mod0000_mergedfiles]game\gameplay\containers\container.ws(1133): Unexpected end of file found after '{' at line 12

So I remove it. Then I get:

Error [mod0000_mergedfiles]game\gameplay\containers\container.ws(12): syntax error, unexpected TOKEN_EDITABLE, expecting '{', near 'editable'

I tried putting the { in a few places but it whines. Wish they just released actual modding tools or something.

Over at the Dota2 subreddit, people are dropping keys for Dota Underlord. But there are so many snipers there that taking a key is near impossible

Good to know it's not just me :p

I enjoyed what I played, but yeah, the game gets a little to complex after a while. I'm actually kind of impressed of the amount the detail the simulation has (like dealing with gas density/pressure, temperatures, and so on) but it got a little overwhelming, and I still had a lot of the tech tree to research.

I will proabbly check it out from time to time and including the release update, buy they have to streamline some things for my dumb self to get further :p

I dunno why I am wasting my energy and time trying to fix mods for TW3 when I found the game boring in a lot of aspects. Modding is such a PITA.

I pre-ordered Witcher 2 a whole 2 days early to get a free Witcher mouse and mousepad! That's about the only game I've ever pre-ordered. If fact the last time I couldn't just walk into a store on day 1 was Dragon Age 1, they were all out. It was a simpler non-digital time.

I have a nasty habit of preordering Collector's Editions. I need to stop.

Will I?

Probably not.

I always try to pre-order asap if I find an anticipated game with very reasonable regional pricing. Because publishers might update (read: increase) the price at any time leading up to release later. It has happened too many times in these past few years now. :upside-down-face:

If I ever need the money for something else, I can always ask for a refund. Literally no downside at all.

Thankfully I almost never do this anymore. I did buy a lot of Collector's Edition years ago, but now I'm pretty much digital only, unless I really really want that edition.
Last one I got was for Divinity Original Sin 2.

Unfortunately I picked-up an even nastier hobby in the meantime: collecting statues.
I'm doomed.

There's no risk for me with CE's because they don't charge until they ship (for now). So I feel like I'd rather get my foot in the door in case I do want it so I don't have to risk anything selling out.

I also need that Death Stranding BB pod. Need.

When I was a kid I used to collect action figures and video games and now as an adult I collect video games and useless video game junk and funkos. I need to get into statues, I just balk at the prices for good ones.

I did finally check out a Play Arts Cloud at a GameStop and I was left very, very underwhelmed with the sculpt. Although it was Advent Children and not the remake, so maybe that's it?

The only 2 CEs I've bought this gen (meaning I kept my preorder) were Destiny 1 (whoops!) and God of War (good decision). I do still display my GOW statue.

Can't believe Valve would pick winners and losers like that. Such a blight,

/s

Looking forward to reviews. REALLY hope it turns out well! Wasn't feeling some of the footage I saw yesterday.

So I guess today is the last chance for a potential Hamble Bundle for the next month or so, right?
Because next week is start of Steam sale week and then Hamble usually have their summer sale afterwards.

Again, for another (almost a) month, it will be hard to find time to play it, but I would be totally up to that.
I love UT2004, it's one of the few FPS games I regularly played online, so I would be totally up for it (although I probably suck terribly now, considering it's been ages since I last played a FPS :giggle:).
If we can arrange for something next month, after my deadlines finish, you can count me in! ;)
I also would be down for this, but not until july at the earliest. Haven't played UT2K4 in years, let alone online against people.
