Sure about that? The all-time peak was in the last 24 hours.
Ah yes, might have mixed the number with some other product. My bad.

Well if Bloodborne PC is planned for this year, when is Sony suppose to announce it? Also if other games are in the final stages of development, then when?
Any random day in the same way they announced HZD, via blog post one Thursday at 4:50pm:evilblob:

And then you realize it's Gabe himself that made the post.

The dude didn't have a Twitter but he does have a reddit account.



That would explain a number of things......

is this why a certain some one wants a cosplaying kanojo?

Also I remember how Randy tried to bring back Battle (what ever it's called) using porn to get people to play the game, since there is a lot of Overwatch porn.

There was also that Yoko Taro thing with him and the folder with all those 2B lewds.


There was this one game that I played and it talked about how video games are addictive and how porn/sex is also addictive and how combining both could be harmful. And maybe that game was right after all.
He needs a reddit account to be able to post on the Knife Collector's subreddit :p

Its usually frowned upon but I do it the most often so please, go ahead.

Usually the splinter forums pop up due to or to promote either trolling of some kind or moderation issues. Era has both issues in spades.

In personal gaming news, apparently you can 'watch' a friends game at like any time, if you ask. My mind was a bit blown, as I wanted to spectate a Deep Rock match but there was no spectate option within the game. Turns out, steam has an 'app' for that!
Proper Steam.TV when? It does have some issues and does not work perfectly. If you try to use a third party game/app it will not work but from the looks of it as long as the game is on Steam it seems to have less of an issue. At one point in time when a new game would release I would check out the Steam broadcast corner to see gameplay from some people. At most for non dev gameplay stuff you might see something like 20 people watching a game

TBH, I would not expect anything for PC to come out on any of this events when it comes to Sony 1P games, keep in mind that they just confirmed that more things are coming so we still don't know their strategy, let's wait and see. :cat-heart-blob:
They can't wait forever. They have a limited window to sell those old exclusives.

I'm smelling a new launcher anyway, our Queen's list looks like a pretty solid start lineup.

We will probably see a similar strategy as MS but day&date releases, Own launcher + Steam + EGS, get everything from everywhere.

MS banking on Steam makes a powerful message for the rest of companies that it's "there is a lot of market here to exploit"

As much as yet another damn launcher would piss people off I think it's by far the best strategy for Sony. Like you said it does not mean releasing games only on this Playstation launcher. Day and date releases I can't see that though, they want to maximise console sales.

At least from where I'm standing it's looking like PS4 games are coming to PC not their new stuff. I'm okay with that.

Whatever gets me God of War on PC.

Of course it makes sense for them and it will happen if they are committed to this task of porting things to the platform but the main strategy of most of the companies is "expand everywhere to reach every kind of customer" even if that means releasing in third party platforms such as Steam and once again I will use MS as an example as is the one of the big 3 that releases games on PC.

They have not one but two services, windows store and gamepass however they also release on Steam (and weirdly enough one time on EGS) and while it makes a complete 100% of revenue on their own platforms, the amount of top sellers they have on Steam is stunning, some even million sellers.

And they came out with the perfect system, you will be able to buy the game wherever you want but the online service/bridge will be my Xbox Live account (same as EA with Origin) and it will count as 1 more user in my ecosystem, which is what I want to get better contracts with developers and publishers when making deals as I will be able to sell you the huge amount of users I have (split might be weird but it works) so yeah, I think Sony will do just the same thing for third party stores such as Steam, playstation network connected via bridge like Live or Origin.

I'm not sure i can follow the conversation or the question at hand, but i can certainly appreciate any post that includes the words "2B lewd".
Random fun fact: The person who made the 2B lewds folder was a person who created ERA, if only the staff knew :h02scheming:

Videogames are certainly addictive, as is porn, i love both, i'm not addicted tho, i can stop any time, ANY TIME I SAID GODDAMNIT

I want Sony games on Steam, but I honesty wouldn't care much if it was exclusive for their own launcher or EGS as my top wish now is to get Sony games on PC at all.
Same. I'd stomach EGS for Uncharted even.

But Sony are smarter than that I think.

Now we wait until the pieces fall together. If God of War/Bloodborne are "nearly" done then Sony should announce them.
Uncharted Collection would be awesome as well.

Anyway, let's be patient and see what happens, we got official confirmation that yes, more is coming but we don't know officially what, this is a weird year and communication channels are sometimes quick and sometimes slow, so yeah, I'm sure we will get news when the time comes 😊:cat-heart-blob:

The conversation had to do "you know what's your problem?" it's that you are a gamer - Linus

Then some one mentioned, imagine a world if there was no video games and the stuff we would be able to do

I mentioned about how we would be porn addicts without video games

someone mentioned why not both and that lead to the Hektor post, since video games and porn can be linked

I spent the weekend playing the metroidvania game Alwa's Legacy.

It is really good! Top notch pixel art, a great chiptune soundtrack and the best feeling of character movement in a 2d pixel-based metroidvania since Momodora: RUtM (although Timespinner was really good as well).

The gameplay focuses more on puzzle solving and platforming than combat. The bosses heavily tie into the puzzle solving mechanics as well in a way that is reminiscent of Zelda bosses.

The world map is large, but not overwhelming. At no point did I feel that the game was wasting my time. The puzzle challenges are escalated nicely, but there is not much grinding with the same type of puzzle. Also, all items related to character upgrades are uniquely placed in the world, so there is no combat grinding needed whatsoever.

The weak point of the game is the story and to a lesser extent the setting. The developer seems to presume that you have played the previous game (which I have not), which gets somewhat confusing in the beginning of the game. Thankfully, the story content is kept to a minimum, and you don't really have to invest in the story to be able to enjoy the game. The setting is not explained very well, but the pixel art for the different areas look great, and exploring the world can be enjoyed without knowing the details.

Cliffy B going full-on "ok boomer" on the 3DRealms stream. Know when to shut up, man.

EDIT: This guy is living on bitterness and regrets. Get help, Cliff.

Dunno what he's saying but sometimes I feel bad for him. It must be hard for an artist to drift away into irrelevance. But he has always been a bit of a dick, so fuck him too I guess.

Seeing Fortnite blow up the way it has (which IIRC he was associated with) HAD to really sting, too lol. He always came off as a pompous ass though, so I don't really feel bad for him.

Didnt he said something like he invented Fortnite or was involved with it? Which is funny because nobody knew what Fortnite was until they ripped off PUBG

Yeah, I don't remember his exact role but I know he was a key developer on it (the Save the World part) for a while back when it was basically vaporware. I always assumed the project going nowhere at the time was part of the reason he left Epic.

Oooooofff! Direct Hit right in the Nostalgias! Thanks DF for showing me the GBA THPS2, so many memories of playing it on the train going back home to my mum's place from Uni for visits. Wow. GBA THPS2, Jackie Chan Adventures and my tiny 64mb Creative MP3 player. Good times.

I still can't get over the weird glitch respawn animation they chose in the Tony Hawk games, just looks bad.

In all honesty save the world went nowhere. It was a massive failure. So he was kinda right...

I mean, hindsight is always 20/20 and I'm sure he was filthy rich at the time (and likely still is) but he left a pretty sweet gig and would now likely be in charge of one of the most popular games on the planet. There's no way he doesn't regret the move.
