Talking about Game Pass. Another Rumor that it's coming to Steam soon.


edit: forgot to add a cute anime gif. Shamiko for everyone :yay:

Doesn't this just means they are moving to a Steam like CDN only? Might be a rework on how Windows store games work?

uses volvo's suggested regional pricing ...

GO, GO, GO!!!

they WILL change it ... probably soon
Probably won't.

Wasteland 3 actually fixed its regional pricing for everyone and stayed that way.
And historically DLCs have match pricing pattern of the base game (with exceptions of course)

Yeah this isn't saying gamepass is coming to Steam just the Windows store content delivery will be more like Steam.

Ratchet & Clank 2016 coming to PC, apparently.

Strange choice if true. I mean there are so many better choices commercially for Sony.

I believe this game just got an update to improve it on the PS5, it probably wasn't a ton of extra work to port it to the PC when they were working on that.

Sorry for the completely random Youtuber recommendation, but

Any German-speaking fan of (Grand)Strategy and building Let's plays should check out "Steinwallen, Games and History" https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTmHYQZukLJUxQDLEmbjrWQ

He is playing Paradox Grand Strategy, old Strategy Games (like "Vicky 2" and "Imperialism"), builders like "Workers and Ressources", and other historical games.
Dude has a soothing voice and always explains the real-world history behind certain characters, nations and historical events.
He also Roleplays his Let's plays often, where he, (for example in Crusader Kings), decides on what to do based on the characters traits and history between other characters and nations and not what is the best to do in regards to game mechanics.
Post 'em here, too!

Yeah, it all comes down to porting costs.
Not too interested in it honestly.
 
Edit: I just saw that you've posted it just now. WooHoo!
Edit: MegaApple beat me to it, lol!

I would like some Rachet & Clank as well. To be honest it is the only game I am currently interested in on the PS5.
 
First, a message from the developers (apetribegames):
Hi everyone! Let me just say that we completely understand your frustrations. We've reached out to our publisher to resolve this ASAP and should be able to give you all an update tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Then a message from the publisher (Sold Out CS):
Hi everyone, thank you so much for your comments and thoughts. Unfortunately, we were unable to secure enough Steam keys to provide Steam as a download option for this month's Humble Choice Bundle. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and really appreciate all of your feedback. - Sold Out

I'd play 2016 R&C. I've never played a Ratchet & Clank game before, but have always followed them for some reason when it comes to reviews & news. :p
 
Since I can't run Village decently I decided to check out another game from my brother's library, Death Stranding.
The first hour is quite a trip, I'm really curious to see how I will end up liking this game.

Uh, that's no joke. Are you have tremors and did you check with a doctor?
I have suffered from some form of that since I can remember, even childhood. It's a family / genetic thing.

WD Legion is fucking shit, keeps crashing. Changed to DX11 and same shit.

I kinda regret playing it, felt like I was wasting my time with the game. A big letdown from Watch Dogs 2 which I also still only found to be "good".
 


good questions - what exactly is the point of "E3" in an era when any publisher can independently put together their own livestream to make announcements? nostalgic branding, I guess?

Point off E3 is to avoid mess we had last year. Without someone to "make" publishers/developers to show what they have in a week we will have mess each year.

I really don't buy that excuse. If a self publishing dev whose game is on Choice this month can get enough Steam keys, then why can't a third party publisher like Sold Out? Disjunction has been bundled only one time: this Choice bundle. So it's either incompetence by the publisher or they really don't want to hurt Steam sales which I get but man, that's some underhanded tactics.

Pretty much what I've been saying on other places and then being essentially told to shut up.

Most people's brains are so addicted to corporate marketing, they think E3 would satisfy their "cravings". I don't think they even care for video games, just marketing and hype.
 
question for anyone who knows anything about hard drives

i didnt have any extra mounts, is it okay to just put a hdd on some plastic inside of my pc next to my motherboard? i did and its kinda running alright but does it have long term effects, was told to make sure it didnt move around so i took some gorilla tape and fastened it to the pc.

I have a shocking amount of hard drives, most mounted properly, some in a caddy and some just hanging around. If I heard one vibrating I'd move it for sure, apart from that its been fine. If I lived in a warmer drier country or smoked I'd maybe even put the sides of the PC on.
 
I just lost the afternoon on Age of Empire 1 DE Babylonians first mission.
Raged like there is no tomorrow, shelving the game, feels horribly bad to have been angered and to shelf the game.
Fun afternoon.
