I've made a huge mistake.
I've started playing Portia for real yesterday and so far it's been great. Add it to the pile of dozens of "in-progress" games. :cold-sweat:
If you would be so kind, how does it compare to the GOT, Stardew Valley? Asking for childish adult friend... (me :anguished-face:)

Forza Horrizon 4 is 73,9 go.
Ok ok ok.
If game size continues to balloon like that they will soon ship them with their own ssd.
I'm here to help by saying you should totally install it! :thumbsupblob:

Wait.. I'm doing the opposite again, aren't I? Hmm.. oh, I know! <whispers> The LEGO stuff is pretty great and it could be another good one for co-op!

...Oh dang it. :face-with-stuck-out-tongue-and-winking-eye:

Sorry if I'm intruding and maybe I'm completely missing something, but I assume you are from Brazil, right? Steam wouldn't let someone from Argentina send you the game due to the price difference. Plus PayPal fees are really shitty so in the end it might not even be worthy trying to get the game this way.

Thinking about my HD space and the horrible amount of shit I accumulated over the years. I think I need the Mari Kondo of PC Gaming.

You could still grab a month of Premier Access, no idea how much it costs for you tho. Missed the free additional month but that's fair punishment for not believing in Respawn and getting in early. :blobgamer:
There is no Premier here in Brazil only basic.:cryblob:

No face-cam or microphone? You'll never make it big, friend.
Haha, so true.

I actually did my first streaming test yesterday lol. My PC or internet isn't good enough, it was so low quality it's embarassing.

So I've already uninstalled the software lol. It's even worse cos I streamed the left eye view, not right which is my dominant, so half the action is off screen xD

But I did get my first ever S score in a level (still on easy mind) somewhere at the 7:20 mark, lol. I suck at that game.

Well I've only played ~2 hours so far, so I've probably haven't seen too much, but I would say it compares favourably.
It seems to be more focused on "building" as a whole instead of specifically farming, you aren't even able to farm from the beginning.
There's harvesting, there's building, there's farming, there's fishing, there's combat (which I haven't done yet), there's mining in dungeons where you have a jet pack, there are kinds of upgrades and furniture and stuff for your woskshop (it's a workshop, not a farm you have), there are (basic) skill trees, there are lots of NPCs to socialize and play minigames with.
It certainly looks like it's packed with fun stuff.

That sounds good. Too good..... Not only will I be obsessive about farming but also building some kind of either Tree house or underground bunker house...

Ugh..... Must resist.... Will fail...

So, I've never really followed the Xbox side of things outside of E3. How low should my expectations be for today's thing?

The only specific thing I'm kinda hoping for is Control on PC Game Pass. God, that would be so fucking good. It's like the one exclusive where the wait is genuinely killing me. Even Metro Exodus I've mostly forgotten about at this point. Can't even think of another big one.

Well I'm not sure if you have that much freedom in building (others would now better), but in case you decide to pick it up, don't forgot it's in the current Humble Monthly :)

Oh and since it's all 3D and open it it should have way higher requirements than Stardew Valley (haven't looked at them myself though)

Usually, expect nothing. Inside Xbox is a shit show filled with second tier announcements delivered by the incarnation of ’how do you do, fellow kids’.
But hey, they say it’s a big one so maybe it will be less shit than usual.
Though it would have had a bigger impact if they could keep Halo release date under wrap for a few more hours. This ride is not starting on the best foot.

Yeah, I really hope they have something bigger than a Reach release date...

To be fair I'm pretty sure they've said the last year or two that it will be a big one, though I do hope they are serious this time. Between Game Pass and the bigger push to Steam this year certainly has a good chance of being worth watching.

We'll see! Fingers crossed! 🤞

So far I guess we can expect Rage 2 on PC game pass + any upcoming Xbox Game Studios title to release on PC Game Pass and Steam.

Not to be pedantic but IIRC it’s the date for the whole enchilada, not just Reach. At least I hope so, as I’m a by release date kind of guy.

I think it’s fair to expect several gamepass announcements, which is easy as they nearly didn’t release shit since The Outer Worlds. Then a couple of new projects and some time on xcloud.
Expecting more is setting oneself up for disappointment.
But you never know, it could be bigger.

You mean the entire MCC on PC? Lol there is no way it's releasing all at once. They've only tested Reach on PC so far and it's been taking a while, so that's not happening unless they've secretly finished all the other ports without any testing. Plus, they said months ago that they would treat them as episodic releases.

I stopped trying to apply logic to Halo and 343 ways a long time ago. You have good points, but it's Halo and 343.

Blacksad is some good comics. Great art and wonderful stories that delve in social, mental and racial elements of 50s~70s american society.
Is this an official "Metacomics/Graphic Novel" endorsement? If so, I'll take it! I never heard of Blacksad before, who is the main writer?

It seems I won't be able to watch that Microsoft stream.

If anyone finds a place that lets me watch that press conference later, after it finishes, please let me know. ;)
