Stardew is perfect. Tip for anyone having trouble with it: Sometimes it takes two starts to get the Big PIcture overlay to connect with Stardew. It's a problem I've had forever with my Steam controller, and I just ran into it now. It might not be an issue for everyone, but it's something to remember.

I know it's probably the easiest one to configure, but Dicey Dungeons plays wonderfully with the touchscreen. It's going to be a killer when it hits mobile.

Just caught this line in a random webpage talking about Code Vein :
"Getting it to run at a stable 60fps with all details maxed out at 4K on our Alienware Area 51M with an Intel Core i9 9900K, 32GB RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 2080Ti was painless"

I sure hope so, motherfucker :so-good-blob:

Code Vein is at 18k concurrent players and it isnt even the official release date in NA yet. If it crosses 25k (Which it likely will). It'll be one of Namco's biggest PC releases of all time. Only behind DragonBall FighterZ (42k), Dark Souls 2 (The original) (79k) and Dark Souls 3 (130k). The player count is going up by several hundred people every time I refresh, Its only been out for an hour.

Looks like Namco's attempt to fill in the Dark Souls shaped hole in their wallet is working out really well and their games usually dont peak in player count until a few days after release.

Wow. That's honestly unexpected for me. Good for them, I'll pick it up later at a discount.

madjoki Do you have any idea about the reason why there are duplicate market listings with an #Economy hashtag?



Legit:


vs. dubious:

No idea.

Speculation:

But looks like translation server failed when those were posted (maybe when item was generated?), and it has for some reason have translation tag in market hash (part in url, which is how market groups by in addition to appid). It would get fixed when item refreshes (eg. is bought from market).

Similar happens when mystery cards were renamed, there will be phantom entry.

Like many modern gamers, I like checking games on Twitch to see how they look before I buy them.

WHY THE HELL DID THEY REDESIGN TWITCH TO BE SO HIDEOUS TODAY?

Hey, finally I'm back to Sweden after a business trip to Germany. Still not quite home yet. We arrived late at the airport and were late to catch the train back to my hometown.

New month soon. Has the challenge been decided? Will it be the "don't buy any new games" challenge?

I have a suggestion to a second challenge. Since some of you have mentioned about spooktober, why not start and finish a horror themed game?

I played Code Vein and well, within 3 hours the game crashed on me 3 times. Luckily I did not lose a lot of progress, Character creation is cool (why must games that Shift be involved with have an mute MC that feels out of place in the game)?. I am able to get the game at above 100 fps on my PC.


Combat is weird in the game and will take some getting use to. I still do not understand parring since in other games they make it more clear visually. Movement is just not that good in this game and it feel like your character is skating on ice since they don't stop on a dime and instead they skid a bit even though they are not running.

The story is weird but it is decent.

I am able to play the game max out at 1440p at around 100fps, my PC does sound very loud though.

What are " laurels "?


I guess Code Vein is very popular than, earlier today there was the THQ publisher sale and it got the store banner but after Code Vein came out that became the store banner (remember it must have been Bandai that payed Valve for that /s)

By the way I kept my character in Code Vein as simple as possible

A lot higher than The Surge 2 then despite all the praise and people said it has better combat.

If there's no Digimon reference in next months title we riot! :02stab:

Incidentally, it's now only 3 more weeks until its release.
Also incidentally, there is still no store page.

Take your bets, when will it get one?
2 weeks before release?
1 week before release?
Release day?
After release?

Thanks. I have created a buy order then. What is funny is that it looks better on the main market page than the buy order for the legit listing.

I dreamed Death Stranding was releasing on PC this year and the butthurt by Sony fanboys was real.

I believe this is the first time I dream of videogames in like a decade.

Although I think that now it's less likely for Death Stranding to come to PC, I definitely want so see the butthurt of losing exclusive.

And this link has been thrown around everywhere since yesterday Sony Interactive Entertainment confirms Death Stranding is a full PlayStation exclusive. - Jack of All Controllers (it's fake)

Now I'm curious how many copies will Atelier Thighza sells.
Meat+decent visuals in a JRPG?
It will obliterate the sales of all the others. With decent marketing, maybe day one. On PC that won't even be that hard, the series topped at 600~ concurrent players.

But the design of Code Vein really is something... shit looks stupid.

It is amazing, but it's killing me that for some reasons this feature available only for Remote Play. You know, Windows tablets exist, and as someone who owns such tablet, I would kill for this feature.
