The patch notes for the next Cyberpunk update is so long lmao

Hopefully that is it for a while in terms of fixes and they can start working on getting the dlc/expansions out.

Also I guess multiplayer for the game is dead? I remember they talked about it b4 release. Its a shame too. There is so many vanity items in the game I think they could have actually pulled off a cool GTA style multi. Even some type of competitive battle royale would have been cool seeing how big the city is and the shooting actually being pretty good.

Maybe they could still do it much later after release but kind of unlikely now right? I guess never say never since Ubi is doing Legion multiplayer and I feel that is 6 months after release. That game is surely more dead and reviewed much worse than CP too.

Is anyone even going to attack that thing? 🤷‍♂️ Looks very janky. Boss performs an attack, show all players dodging the attack (with annoying cuts). Not a very interesting way to go about doing a trailer.

Ay all this does ig vei the impression of the boss being tough but It'd be nice to know how combat works against such a boss. I do like the attacks it does tho.

Don't be like me -- clone your drive now while you still can. My system was behaving almost exactly like this, and I waited too long before the errors became so bad that I couldn't get anything off the old drive. I was getting bad block messages in the event viewer though, so if you're not seeing that, maybe it's not a hardware thing.
Do you suggest anything in particular to do that?

Will they unveil the next monthly games tomorrow or was last month's premature unveil a one-time thing?

With my 2070 Super back in my system I now have too much to play and too little time and sometimes drive...

I should technically continue Nioh 2 then dive into Yakuza 6 and finish Fallen Order while I still have EA Play. Then there is also Paradise Killer to continue since I paused that when my 970 got too loud and I didn't want to risk it. And also squeeze in some Fallout 2 and finally check out Valheim. But I am also getting into Apex with a couple of friends so even less time. It's an embarassment of riches and absolutely a first world problem but at the same time being over a month or so without my GPU really set back my gaming plans for the year :cryingcat:

I know it's old but I just came around watching the V1 Trailer for it.
And I gotta say, as someone who's not really into 2D action-platformers, something here gets me intrigued.
Dunno if it's the large sprites, mode7-type effects, non-scrolling rooms or the combination of it all.

freshVeggie I like it and i'm going to play more of it but bear in mind that if you play difficult Touhou games or are a Castelvania expert then you may find the game too short and too easy. For me it's just fine as i'm not in that group. The discussion is already full of veteran players saying it's too easy, lol.

It is short though from what i have seen but again, i'm enjoying it and picked it up in EA so i'm not that bothered by that.

Hmmm..
I was able to play Lightning Returns a few weeks ago. Now I am no longer able to start the game. It is stuck on the Square Enix logo. Anyone got any tips on fixing this?

Man, you seem to have bad luck with bugs and game crashing, lol.

Are you able to still use your mouse when it gets stuck? If you move your mouse to the very top, a menu should pop up. Try changing the display format.

I have tried that changed to window mode and lower resolution, nothing. I googled about it and it seems disabling avast and validate the files works. Only that I dont use avast :(
I disabled the antivirus I use, but still nothing

It's not a big deal though. I already finished the game. But I wanted to unlock a few more achievements before I am done with the game

Deku I'd rename the Save & config folder and try to launch to see if there's a config issue?
I can only think it's a driver problem or something else has changed in the last few weeks. Did you tweak it last time and have deleted the tweaks since?

I havent done anything to the game. Although for some reason Steam forget some of my settings a few days ago and when I launched the game it showed me the license agreement window. I will try to rename the save and config folder. Where do I find those?

I have difficulties not being extremely bitter with Sony closing their PS3 and Vita store. More than I should as I don’t really care for either that much.
They are giving the finger to entire generations of games, making purchasing dlc or multiplayer impossible. One day they evidently will shut the redownload function off, too. That’s not even a maybe.
Preservation is useless, we have new products for you to buy, anyway.

It‘s complicated and each one is different, some triggers are personal, but at the end of the day, they really do a good job advocating for piracy.

Out of curiosity, I have re-computed some rankings using some old code (the last run was 2 years ago) to use SteamSpy API and compute Bayesian averages.

The results for games are slightly similar to SteamDB's. Terraria is not at the top, contrary to Steam250's.

The results for developers and publishers are different than Steam250's, notably Valve is not near the top of publishers, due to Artifact's failure.

Best Developers
  1. NEKO WORKs (0.921)
  2. Moon Studios GmbH (0.918)
  3. Supergiant Games (0.916)
  4. The Behemoth (0.915)
  5. Free Lives (0.914)
  6. Fireproof Games (0.914)
  7. Rusty Lake (0.911)
  8. Lucas Pope (0.910)
  9. Klei Entertainment (0.908)
  10. Hopoo Games (0.908)
  11. 拾英工作室 (0.906)
  12. Draw Me A Pixel (0.905)
  13. Terry Cavanagh (0.904)
  14. 7th Beat Games (0.903)
  15. Subset Games (0.902)
  16. Playdead (0.902)
  17. GrizzlyGames (0.901)
  18. Wube Software LTD. (0.901)
  19. KillHouse Games (0.901)
  20. Suspicious Developments (0.900)
  21. mestiez (0.900)
  22. Ludeon Studios (0.899)
  23. Wallpaper Engine Team (0.899)
  24. PuffballsUnited (0.899)
  25. Yuzusoft (0.899)
  26. Re-Logic (0.898)
  27. Scott Cawthon (0.898)
  28. vanripper (0.898)
  29. Ironhide Game Studio (0.898)
  30. ConcernedApe (0.898)
Regarding hidden gems, there are 2 possible rankings. After a quick look, the second one is more similar to Steam250's and GameDataCrunch's.

I feel bad for anyone who bought a Digital only PS5
