Uhh, why is the font size for the Steam user reviews suddenly 18px? This happens in Chrome and Firefox. It looks ok in the client.
 
I try to keep my wishlist under 70 so it usually stays at 69.

Gabe has told multiple people through his email that it was a real thing and that he does own every steam game
I pity the fool. He'll never experience the pleasure of his first Steam sale, or of getting that elusive key for a removed game, or buying a game that went on sale after years without a discount.
 
So hang on. You guys dont think that the next consoles will be doing 120fps at 4k?

Ye of little faith.
I'm sad because the new consoles will render controllers and TVs obsolete. They will feature a neural network that taps into your brainwaves and shifts the patterns according to what you wanna do in the game. It also casts the rendered frames straight into your cerebral cortex, bypassing the optical system that adds a lot of lag to gaming. There's also the quantum cybernetics advances that allow them to generate the required power to sustain prolonged game sessions without an external power source, thus making them the first perpetual motion consoles of all time.

Online multiplayer is still behind a paywall, but hey, starving Sony and Microsoft still gotta eat somehow, you know?

All that fueled by the exquisite taste from your Mountain Dew Verification Can.

I'm putting my PC on ebay as we speak because I don't want it in the same room with my new console or it might hold it back due to bad karma and electromagnesium
Hey, I got some mega special enthusiast audio cables to sell you that will take care of that for you. They come with their own hanging device to keep those pesky electromagnets out of the way.

And maybe I'll throw in a magic rock that resonates the audio better in your room...

Can? Thanks to DRM, it's more like Can't.

Sound waves so sharp and edgy they would make Shadow the Hedgehog blush.
 
Anybody guess why this particular category is 215/216 when all my other categories are just one number?

I'm annoyed that some people can't handle losing an argument with dignity. Someone over at that dumb "PC is doomed" thread claimed that the 360 was more powerful than high-end PCs at launch. I posted a comparison by Gamespot for Oblivion in which it is shown that the 360 was competitive with a mid-range PC with a 6600gt while it was soundly beaten by high-end PCs.

So this other user jumps in and claims that the 360 in fact outclassed the mid-range PC because the 360 version had smoother framerate while the PC version dropped into the teens according to the article. So I quote him and post another video in which the 360 is shown frequently dropping into the teens in Oblivion.

He never replied. As soon as he saw he was wrong he simply stuck his head in the sand and kept posting in the thread but never acknowledged his mistake. I found this quite rude. Anyway,sorry for discussing my pet peeves, carry on!
 
lashman is devoted to watching and indulging in anime.
It is a fact, he just trolling you all as his awkward tsundere way of appreciating anime.
Started to play DreadOut before going to sleep. That was a huge mistake. I am too scared to play this scary game. :suicide-blob: :suicide-blob: :suicide-blob: :suicide-blob:
Why on earth compelled you to want to play a horror game before going to bed? :V
 
So, Disco Elysium settled at 5k concurrent users peak. I honestly expected MUCH higher considering the hype and anticipation build up pre-release. Even when compared to other CRPGs, it's still pretty low. Pathfinder and Pillars 2 had 22k, even a "failure" like Tides of Numenera had 7k. That said, considering that it's very niche as there's no traditional combat in the game, and the asking price which is rather high, I guess it's definitely not a failure either. Just not as successful as I was hoping for.

Nonetheless, considering it's the studio's first ever game, I'm happy that it's successful enough for what it is. Looking forward to their next output.

I don't understand why Cohh isn't playing it yet. He was responsible for like 95% of the viewership for Kingmakler.

The game is currently at #1 of global top sellers for CRPG, though. I wouldn't worry about it since the word of mouth is still strong. Besides, most people are still too busy playing Destiny 2. Hell, I'm a part of the problem too since I bought it and hardly put any hours into it.
 
Rob is right, though

I didn't say that he was wrong. But I know there's multiple ways to become homeless. Just saying that it's interesting to have the opinion of someone saying this is not the reality he experienced.

I've been homeless for a very short time and had to be housed by friends for 2 years about 10 years ago (but I still had a job, so it was definitely easier), and I housed several homeless people in my home these last years too. Some for a few days, an illegal family of 5 fleeing war in their country for months, a friend of my gf for almost a year... All of them had different stories, so I'm fully aware that every situation is different.

Still interested in this game though.
 
Because it seems like a good game and that doesnt generate clicks
If anything, an unknown game that came out of nowhere getting 90+ reviews would piqued people's curiousity.

because it's PC-only (for now, at least) ... so for most of the outlets it might as well not exist
I'm not so sure about that. Original Sin 2 had 72 reviews on Meta, even the first game had 59.

Has anyone tried Hell Let Loose? I saw a number of Battlefield streamers/content creators have tried it out, and it looks intriguing.

If only the game is on EGS because the discoverability isn't doing ZA/UM any favours.

But seriously, when people like jschreier only found out about the game in its launch week, it should tell you where their interests lies.

yeah, pretty much ... it's even worse with indies ... no matter how popular they are on PC (unless they ABSOLUTELY blow up - like Undertale or Stardew Valley) - most of them won't pay any attention to them ... until they come to a console (especially switch) ... that's when they start caring
