It has to be Returnal, as the PS5 version released in April 2021.

Wonder when it will be unveiled.....I assume it will release next year anyway.

Returnal was really fun, but with a mouse/keyboard it would be godlike. I will definitely play it.

I wish I could finish a game! I've been working on AC Valhalla the last couple of days, but after finishing an alliance, the first Asgard arc, and Wrath of the Druids, I'm losing interest again.

Then a thread on Era made me think about Pillars of Eternity again, which reminded me that I still haven't finished all of the Deadfire DLC, so I need to replay that... but also, I should probably replay PoE1 first so I can import my save!

Did I mention I also reinstalled Skyrim for the first time in years because I watched a video about mods for it, so now am planning to re-play that too!

But also, My Time at Sandrock comes out tomorrow and I want to play that...

And I haven't played any of the indie games I listed as wanting to play during my 5 days off.

We don't even have a date for Uncharted on Steam, I don't think we are going to hear about PS5 games anytime soon.

Unless Sony does the sensible thing and announces a slate of games instead of just one.
We do have a date for Uncharted on Steam, it's June 20th (thanks Epic for leaking it via official newsletter)

Endless Space 2 free Steam key

You need a Relic account and link your Steam Account. You don't get to see the key. Also, if you are running adblockers or the alike it might throw you an error at some point during the redemption process

The Relic site for the COH Franchise is based on Amplitude Games2Gether which is good. I wonder if it's a coincidence or whether Relic and Amplitude are now grouped together in another Sega subsidiary.

Why they aren't doing this is beyond me.
I mean I'm not a dev, but the answer is probably because consoles have unified memory.

So does Deck and the performance is still shit there.
:okblob:
I actually wonder if Valve could work some magic there, given what they did with Elden Ring for example.

How does an instruction to transfer from system ram to gpu ram work when they are one and the same. Is the Deck ram allocated/partitioned in a system and video ram and the transfer is literally just moving a chunk of data from one block into another block even though they are physically the same ram? Could Valve "optimize" the system -> video move out of the chain.

:thinking-face:

Almost quadruple the amount of revenue vs this past year?

That seems ambitious. Maybe if they do really good discounts for those 3 titles for summer/winter steam sales. But even then they are gonna need a lot more than Uncharted-duo for the rest of the year if they want to pull off 300million.

Ghost of Tsushima or Spider-Man would do it imo. Bloodborne too ofc.

But more than likely those forecasts will be revised much lower.

That shit Horizon port really scared a lot of folks away.

Plus shit pricing.
Horizon has been out the longest by far on PC. Days Gone didn't sell well enough on Playstation to get a sequel so it's not a big surprise it's sales numbers aren't massive (they're still pretty good though). God of War has only been out a few months and has already outsold Days Gone.

300M for this fiscal year is a lot. Jimbo said that they have 2 unannounced project that will lead chase for that 300M but he also said that they have 2 unannounced GAAS games to be released this year. One way or another to get to that 300M they need tonbe at least 6 months on the market so time is short and we need to see announcements and releases ASAP.

So...Uncharted and those two GaaS games, is that it for FY 2022 on the PC front ?

That is what we know now. Based on sale numbers they released we could get more ($300M is a lot of money). But as I said expecting a lot of revenue from their first GaaS releases on PC is bit risky. Especially if Factions (The Last of Us thing) is one of them and TLoU is not on PC. Kinda similar situation with relasing Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy and not 1-3. It simply feels weird and many people will see Uncharted 4 and wonder where are 1-3 and when they realize that they are not on PC they will just skip 4. Similar thing kinda happened to Gears 4 and especially 5.

If they released a high quality Spider Man port it would do $300M alone IMO. Won't happen, but that would be the fastest shortcut to money.

JUST LIKE IF SQUARE ENIX GOT OFF THEIR ASSES AND RELEASED FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ON THE PC. JUST PUT OUT THE PS1 ROM, EVEN!

Sorry, what were we talking about?

I bet they do Ghost of Sushi. That's a big budget game that could come out on PC and sell well.

The Last of Us remake is very likely coming to PC, but a while later. It could be announced on both platforms though during initial reveal.

That's the issue, they are doing things backwards. As I said releasing Factions before TLoU is kinda stupid. Factions are stand alone thing but having that as introduction into TLoU universe is kinda strange. Only reason why Factions is a thing is because they hooked players with TLoU Single Player part and then those people tried MP part and got hooked to that too. But as I said so far Sony doesn't seem to have concrete strategy for PC releases and they are really conservative and just doing random things.

It's strange from our perspective for sure. Whatever works out for them I guess.

We will see if it will work. As I said we have examples like Gears 5 that show that things kinda don't work sometimes (just to be clear price of that game 70€ played the par too). And entering GaaS market on PC is bit different than on consoles in my opinion. On PC there is much more competition.

All in all I am glad that Sony is coming to PC but I still think that they are kinda acting snobbish and look at PC space like it is below their platforms. It was prooven time after time that impact on console sales by releasing it on PC day and date but for some reason Sony is acting like it will decimate their console sales tonthe pint that they will go bankrupt.
