I unironically loved that show. Haven't caught up with the later seasons though.
My Freesync monitor somehow prevents Windows from letting the monitor go to sleep.
It's always the same thing. After the set amount of minutes before the monitor should go to sleep, the monitor powers down and becomes black. A few seconds later it turns itself on, and the cycle continues... Haven't managed to find a solution yet and googling the error doesn't provide any good solutions either...
And I think I had the same issue with my old computer (same monitor) as well, so it must be the monitor.
Could it be the crappy speakers built into the monitor? Or the USB hub also built in?

Wow, they casually doubled the regional pricing here last week, real fucking classy.
First impressions are strong.
Anime-influence XCOM, but with Final Fantasy Tactics-style RPG character progression, and an almost visual novel type story about a civilian militia of superhero punk rock kids called Troubleshooters.
Systems looks staggeringly deep with hundreds of Mastery buffs you can equip your character with. Lots of D:OS environmental unit placement for elemental synergy. Graphics are AA nice with varied maps and good cut scene stills art. Appropriately cheeseball hair metal and smooth jazz music style (among others). Translation is rusty but not impenetrable. Story looks like it could go places.
Too early for a concrete analysis, but I like what I'm seeing so far. Has a lot of personality and verve.
Went up by a lot here too

Looks like people were using alt-VPNs to purchase cheap keys outside their country of origin and the dev had to move fast to stem the flood.

Didn't know this was a thing. Are there so many people that know this cheating method that the devs had to increase the regional prices?

apparently it's something a bit different:
So we have to suffer due to shady key sellers? Neat.
started Greedfall yesterday and it surprisingly runs pretty well on my machine. the only gripe ive had so far is the menu system....there is no dedicated map button which sucks and change equipment is awful too. it gives you two columns of gear but only lets you moved up and down one unless you switch party members and then switch back on the right column you want to work on. really bad system there.
OP
OP
it's not even key sellers ... there are no keys to sell there ... they literally log into people's accounts, change their region and buy the game for them using their account
Yeah I should have put quotation marks on that "key seller".
Either way, regions that need the regional pricing paying the price for gringos wanting to save 10 bucks, news at 11, into the deep discount bin it goes.
I got annoyed by the equipment thing but found that on a controller left and right on the dpad will move between the columns and left and right on the thumb stick switches between characters. Though knowing this doesn't stop me from still switching between characters nearly every time when I'm 10 hours into the game.
For the map there's no individual button for it but holding down the menu button instead of just pressing it will take to right to the map.

Has anyone tried:
The game looks nice, and early reviews are positive.

I personally have put about 5-6 hours in and disliked almost all of it. The UI is convoluted to hide a pretty shallow strategy layer, 95% of your time will be the combat. Which is OK but pretty boring compared to a real tactics game like X-Com or FFT. The combat auto-resolve is also completely broken as you will lose fights where you have a 6v2 advantage or have than 5x the enemy army power so you HAVE to play out every fight, or save before each auto-resolve to see if it works for that one.
I kept trying to dig in and like it but I really couldn't find much redeeming about it. I'd rather just play AoW 3 or really any 4x in my library. I recently gave up and am just going to consider it a loss.
Oh well in that case they should still keep the price the same, if anything the whole thing is a risk to the "buyer" anyway and I doubt that a lot of people would be doing that anyway.

Steam :: Artifact Classic :: Plan Update - Beta 2.0
We are happy to announce that we are moving to the next phase of the Beta! The Beta for the original game started too late and was too short. We’ve decided to approach things a bit differently this time around by gradually inviting people to join us while we are still “Under Construction”...
Weeeeell, from my perspective people are either using throwaway accounts for one game or Valve doesn't do much about it, considering the number of people buying games like that (or just buying accounts with one game bought via VPN) on my regional Ebay equivalent.
Seems like Windows 10's May 12th update (KB4556799) is having issues with some users, between BSODs, audio issues, getting stuck with a temporary user profile and more. For those that have the option to defer windows update for X days (not sure if Home users have that or not, since I have the Pro version), I recommend using those options (in Win 10 Pro there's options to defer feature updates and quality updates, this one is considered a quality one).

Thanks, Riot.
They do not have to, so whatever they do is fine with me. As long as there is a good game, that is.

I was able to get the Death Stranding PC Physical Copy after all it it only cost me $49USD!!!!!!
I still have the digital copy on pre-order and I will likely end up refunding that after pre-loading the game and playing a bit of the beginning.
What sucks though is that according to Best Buy I will not be getting my physical copy until about a week after it releases on PC.
It's a good thing that pre-ordered went up today since my $25 Best Buy gift thing expires in a few days.
Good stuff

Not E3: When to expect Sony’s and Microsoft’s next big summer events
We are not getting an E3 in 2020. Instead, we are getting an endless march of loosely affilliated announcements. But what about Sony and Microsoft?

Super boring year for Switch apparently. I already own Pikmin 3, 3D Mario games and Mario 3D World. Also not getting the Xenoblade Remake coming this month as I played and finished the Wii verison (on my Wii U) around 1 year ago, so no interest in playing it right now.
So until further, the only game I have bought form my Switch so far this year is Animal Crossing. 1 damn game.
I didn't even get Animal Crossing! I'll probably get Xenoblade Remaster this month but with being stuck inside all the time and not having to travel for work like usual, I'm playing a lot less Switch lately (except Ring Fit) and just playing PC more.Not E3: When to expect Sony’s and Microsoft’s next big summer events

Well that's also on Wii U, so Im not getting it, until it's very cheap at least. Probably a good game though.
True. The folks in my regional community are having multiple accounts to buy games cheap in other regions.
This shit needs to be addressed sooner than later.
3DMark is really taking the concept of synthetic gaming benchmarks to all new levels.
I'd like to see them actually utilize storage bandwidth for something meaningful this time, unlike the PCIe gen 4 benchmark they released last.

A reminder. Coming out tomorrow:
Looks really cool!
It's the "big" FMV release of the year.

New trailer on character creation, exploration, and combat. Combat kinda reminds me of Original Sin, but with much emphasize on verticality.
The game is shaping up nicely.

I really like what I am seeing, but is it alright for them to lift so much from D&D?
