Lowest price for Yakuza 6 seems to be on gamesplanet US (~15.28€) right now. Since it's not available on wingamestore I think it's better to wait to see which third party store offers it for the cheapest price.

And a new historical low for
Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Imperial Edition Bundle - 35% off - €25.34 (save an additional 5.07€ with Choice)

2game had price mistake for Remastered ones. Let's hope they will screw it up this time too ;)

For the steam embeds issue, you need to update the easylist ad filter list. They made a mistake.
 
I thought heavily about getting Octopath on sale, but with the amount of other sales and new interesting releases Im considering waiting on a deeper sale. Trying to convince me I have to work on my JRPG backlog before buying Octopath.
 
Heads up this ends in a couple of hours
Basically buy anything that totals at $8 or more, apply the coupon and you'll get The Council

I disagree with mocking people for buying into the hype though, it is a valid thing.

My intent was not to mock anyone, but to point out that, based on what had been written, the cons outweighed the pros.

As for buying into the hype, I disagree that it is a good thing. To me, pre-ordering or purchasing a brand new product because of the hype surrounding its release is one of the ways to make a purchase and regret it. I only see good things arising from hype for... marketers, not for customers.

What customers need is information in order to make the correct rational decision, and hype leads to a loss of lucidity and too expensive purchases.

Another important thing for customers is protection. If you purchase from Steam, then you can refund the game if you have regrets. If you purchase Steam keys from other stores, then it is too late.

I personally agree on not letting hype mislead people, but that's also up to everyone individually and not to be enforced by high-minded others. I think hype is also a very positive thing. Getting excited about a game, dreaming a bit is something I think we could all use a little more of. As for your reply, the weird smiley you added made your comment sound rather mean-spirited to me. I'm glad that this wasn't the intent.

Someone didn't tell Nasu that HDMI cables can be connected to PC and 7.1 channels exist there as well.

Some more tidbits in the thread.


Personally, I'm fine with no H-scenes in Type Moon's stuff. I barely remember my Tsukihime playthrough, but it was kind of painful on those parts.

Hey it's announced. We made/are making the Ys ports.
It was interesting, since the technical requirements on Stadia are really quite stringent.

So the systems they provide to you on the cloud aren't very powerful? Or are there other requirements, not related to CPU or GPU resources?
EDIT:
saw your post, earlier. Interesting stuff.

Ask yourself, what's more believable?
That someone has found a way to run unsigned code on Playstation 5 or that someone just has access to the PC port beta and just made it look like it's running on PS5?

Honestly the unsigned code one is more believable. We know from insiders here that Bloodborne PC is just a matter of time.

Probably neither.
Combining Lance McDonald's PS4 fps unlock patch with AI upscaling, we can present a vision of a 4K60 Bloodborne - and here it is.

From the video's description.

They say it's running on PS5, through backcompat, if you watch the video - that's how the footage is 60 fps.
I call bollocks.

They say it's a dev unit that can run unsigned code or something like that. Also the original footage is 1080p and they AI upscaled it to 4K.

Seems legit given the history, why even go to the trouble of saying it's for dev PS5 + AI upscaling + put PS5 pop ups and not just leak glorious UDH PC footage?

Oh, nice. Tina Guo has joined "Of Bird and Cage", very cool addition to the team. She's a great musician and i have a couple of her albums from a some music bundles over the years. She's also worked with a bunch of famous rock and metal musicians over the years too so she's not just a classical cellist. That project is shaping up nicely, thanks for the reminder.
