Based on the size of the platform logos, I guess you can see which platforms TinyBuild find most important, decently important and least important.


And the other site for the game don't even have EGS and GOG logos.


I liked the demo a lot, felt like Immortal Fenyx Rising. Was planning to buy it, but I was suprised with a free Steam promo key.

You can get NMH3 ini edits here. I haven't seen comparison screens. The intro seemed the same to me but apparently they don't apply all stuff to cut scenes.
Also you can add -nohmd in the launch options to get rid of the VR stuff starting up.

Didn't know there had been a PS5 version so as a Switch port this seemed fine to me. It's also kinda the original vs something like DQXI being a later downgrade. Not that they couldn't have done a better job of course but oh well, again, the game is fun (and I also prefer NMH1 on Wii vs PS3 but that had art style changes).

Edit: I watched the intro bits on a PS5 youtube video and yeah, it looks like they made that much better, you can see the actual city and stuff where on PC it's mostly gone and there's some super low res skybox thing with I dunno, a tree and a light post, you can barely tell since it's so low resolution really, PS1-like stuff.

Also this is the first game I ever get drifting in with my DualShock4, it must have 0 deadzone (but even so I set it to 0 in RA with no issues myself so far). It's not really an issue as you need to tilt the controller just right (or wrong) and let it go super lightly for him to continue walking without you pressing it, just saying.

Why would anyone play a game on 3DS now that we have a vastly superior handheld for real gamers the ps vita
3D?
Better battery life?
Touchscreen that isn't a Geneva convention violation?
I'd 100% replay Bravely Default and Bravely Second on PC
Knowing you, you'd also 100% rapelay Bravely Default and Bravely Second on PC.

Yeah, I'd be down for a Bravely Default/Second remaster for sure. I know BD2 is a completely unrelated thing like every numbered FF but I have this weird mental block about jumping into a series when I have no choice but to skip an instalment...

... to be honest I thought that BD2 was also significantly worse than the first two. Going full 3D didn't do the franchise any favor.
But even then, the level design is 0/100, the story and pacing are just bad, and the combat is unbalanced and quickly devolve into bursting everything in one turn since the game even expects you to do so for normal encounters so I can't recommend the franchise really.

I liked Octopath Traveler more, and that was not a very good game either.

Even though I already own Metro 2033 and Last Light, it's cheaper for me to buy the whole saga bundle just for Exodus and the expansion than to buy Exodus Gold edition stand alone.

The new app is nice. Easier logins on steam was overdue, so it's very welcome.

I wonder what's the idea behind allowing multiple accounts saved? Obviously a lot of people have more than one, but it has never seemed like something they'd encourage to me.
I could see families having multiple accounts but not multiple smart phones.

I have my wife's on mine. Before you could have two but it was only for the authenticator function.

Now she can actually browser stuff for hers, considering her region is US based as well.

I don't understand the update on the app. It wanted me to log in again, but it wanted me to confirm the login on the app, which of course I was trying to log into... but it seems to be working.

Isn't that just that you end up on the Steam Guard page directly after logging in? I was also confused by that.

Surprised nobody here is talking about these. Especially the DX12 improvements? Nvidia bullshits a lot, but this has been legit.

I changed absolutely zero settings in my NVCP or in Cyberpunk 2077 but my FPS is up across the board all across Night City by at least 10-15%. Also stuttering is way down too.

If you've got DX12 games to play and an RTX card, give these new drivers a whirl. :fingergunsblob:

Rolled credits on Return to Monkey Island.

What a wonderful game. It's short, it's sweet, it can be hard in the way those old games were if you turn on hard mode or not if you don't. Sentimental, heartfelt, just wonderful.

I loved it. I'm guessing it ends up somewhere on my end of year list.

Released!
Was just finishing up posting exactly that... :grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes:

To add to this, currently, besides the small discount, the following DLCs are included for free:


On consoles, these 3 were free for the first 2 weeks, after that they turned into paid DLCs (future DLCs will be the same).
So, I assume the inclusion of the current 3 DLCs will be free for a similar 2 week period (INTI CREATES hasn't included this info on the game page or website, and haven't even posted on social media about the game being out).

I generally forget to update drivers and do it once or twice a year so thanks for the update, will give it a go and see. Was looking to jump back into Cyberpunk so if it improves the rate that'll be great.

Regarding the free DLCs for Gunvolt 3 that I mentioned above, the ones INTI CREATES didn't bother to mention both on the Steam store page, nor their website (nor in their English social media channels, who haven't even mentioned the Steam version is out; don't these people have someone in charge of advertising/promotion?), their Japanese twitter account has some details, and the DLCs will be free until October 27:
