I bought it when it initially was only on Desura (yeah) and ran it once some years ago on Steam and back then controller support even with the Steam stuff was atrocious. No idea if that changed.

When's Disney going to shell out for Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds: Clone Campaigns: Definitive Edition?
Maybe they could save money by cutting out some of those colons.

OK, thanks. I can get a discount on SSD's so I'll pursue that first.
This was an amazing year for gaming and the thing i prefer is some games that were amazing come from fucking nowhere. A plague tale, Disco Elysium and game like those, that give me what i like the most in an indie title, with a value near an aaa title, makes me smile. also gamepass and playstation now. Now i just wait for the true beginning of vr and to be able to stream well from pc to some nintendo switch kind hardware, and i can stop to have a life
Bruh this looks so much like FEAR. Gonna wishlist it since there's no hope for another FEAR game anymore. I agree the title is bad though.
Yeah, they completely overhauled the animations in Beta 41. Your character has a lot more weight and momentum now. It makes your movement feel a lot more deliberate in a game where quick reactions are essential to survival (when a zombie you didn't see gets the drop on you, for example).
I only just picked up Zombiod this year and the bottomless depth quite took me by surprise. It's just so unflinchingly detailed on a systems & mechanics level.
It's easily one of the best survival sims I've ever played.
God I hope so, I never got round to it on PS4 and just built my PC. It would look godly on my PC compared to my base PS4.
Where is this "Horizion is coming to PC" talk coming from?
I've seen it a couple of times now and always thought it was a joke?

God knows. I'm curious about this too, considering I think there's more chance of Bloodborne coming to PC than H:ZD. I mean, my wife and I would love to play it on PC, but the sequel is almost certainly a PS5 launch exclusive, and whilst I can see multi-platforming the first game to gain attention to the PS5 exclusive is sensible, it's also pretty-much unheard of. Plus, with backwards compat almost certain on PS5, why would they not just keep it as a PS exclusive and not have to bother porting it elsewhere to get sales for it?
A YouTuber who was the first one to confirm Death Stranding on PC said that Horizon Zero Dawn is coming in Feb with an announcement soon.
I don't know who he is and I didn't follow Death Stranding much but there's arguments over the validity of his claims and whether or not he can be trusted. But that's where it started.
It would be great if Sony would start porting exclusives, but I find it very improbable.
Wasn't Death Stranding announced for PC years ago?
And the question was just if that was still the case?
Yeah, it'd be really awesome, but... ehhhh. I see no reason why they'd do it with such a unique and high-profile franchise, and Guerilla is a first party Sony studio, too, so doubly-unlikely.
I don't know the details, people argued both of those sides in the thread the other day. It was definitely announced but it does seem to be that it was uncertain whether it would still be released on PC because it got swept under the rug for some time.
Edit: It seems to have been questionable enough for multiple news articles about whether it would or wouldn't be on PC. https://www.gamesradar.com/death-stranding-pc-ps4-exclusive/
That didn't stop mods from closing threads about it here because they were "unfunded claims" lol
Don't forget under 2 hours to subscribe to humble monthly and get grandfathered in before it becomes humble choice and more expensive.
As cool as it would be to hunt robo-dinos at my desk with M+K, I'll only believe it when I see it.
I think the speculation is based on the fact that HZD is using the same engine as Death Stranding, and thus it *can* be ported to PC, as well.
*cue wishful thinking*

Telling you, it's just gonna be Horizon on PSnow.
Horizon doesn't match Sony's PC releases. It's a first party studio, while everything else they've either published or allowed have been third party devs (which lines up with how Microsoft used to allow of PC releases before their Play Anywhere and Game Pass stuff). There's a reason we're seeing Death Stranding and Detroit Become Human not actually published by Sony on PC, because they aren't actually pushing forward here yet.
The games that were made by third parties (and thus have an external force pushing for the idea of a PC release) like Bloodborne and Until Dawn seem more likely, and even those seem to be small chances.

i dont understand, i see only 3 games (soulcalibur, portia and kiwami)
The rest get revealed at 6pm GMT but you can't subscribe after they are revealed, only before
BG&E is such an under-appreciated game. It was one of the highlights of the console generation imo.
Humble Choice will be revealed in about 2 hours and 30 minutes, at the usual time the Monthly get revealed and I believe going by Humble's wording, the games will be revealed as soon as Choice starts.
The limitations of consoles of the time do stick out but the game does hold up well for the most part IMO.
I finally got a GOG Galaxy 2.0 invite. It's pretty nice having everything in one place and letting the community make plugins to connect to other accounts ( that show I added Battle.net to it). The only part im confused on is the friends list. I see where I can add GOG friends, but can I just have one friends list from all of the launchers?
not anytime soon - and it may never happen. gog 2.0 is missing most of its promised functionality. its a long road
Art direction in Darksiders 2 is gorgeous compared to the first game but so much loot bullshit ugh
It wasn't great back then, but I feel like it's even worse nowadays because so many games are padded with tiered loot systems.
Darksiders II was the only game since Diablo II that actually had me interested in loot.
basically, halfway through you start picking up weapons with life-steal and "give life after every kill" buffs, and then you just feed these to the highest-level possessed weapons to pass on the buffs you want the most to the highest base-damage weapons (usually scythes).
Never really bothered much with the rest of the gear once sets become available.
Would love to play it but I can't get it to work on my pc. I play on a 4Ktv and everything is TINY and changing my resolution doesn't help. im probably just doing something wrong.
Yeah, the loot system is simple enough that it never feels overwhelming IMO (it's no Nioh, that's for sure). And the possessed weapons is one of the first crafting systems in a game that I actually enjoyed utilizing (once you understand the mechanics, it just works so well).
Life and wrath steal are broken. If I was in charge of the remaster, I would have started by slashing their effectiveness by 90% (with additional nerfs to come based on testing).
To some people, the game is too long. To some, it's too short (everybody always complains about the last two zones being smaller). Hard to please everybody.
At least the music is divine. I could never get bored of playing when there's such an amazing soundtrack.
They are only broken until you get to NG+, where almost anything bigger than you can one-shot you.
Life-Steal was basically the only way I survived the 3rd quarter of the Crucible on NG+ and NG+ is the only way to collect the entire Abyssal Armour set, because you can't hit the requisite levels in your first run.
Nope, they're broken. Even on the highest difficulty, you can steamroll everything in NG+ when you get life and wrath steal (they basically remove life and wrath as elements of combat).
I'm not saying parts of the game wouldn't need to be rebalanced accordingly, but two wrongs don't make a right.
I don't think it's too short (I think Act 1 is just right, Act 2 is too long, and Act 3 and 4 do their best to wrap things up without getting bogged down like the earlier acts). But the last two acts being short is a common complaint, so obviously those people wanted the game to be longer.
mmm, i can see how that'd get old quickly, then. :|
that's a shame.
That looks like the gas station from the opening of RE2 with a different character model swapped in.
I haven't gone back to try Apocalyptic (I'm waiting for GOG to put achievements for the first 2 games before doing my 4th (?) replay), but on Nightmare the game's pretty insane- those early giant enraged rodents can one-shot you on early levels even in the starter dungeons if you fail to dodge. Lifesteal doesn't really become a recurrent buff until towards the end of Act II- you start finding items with life-steal in the City of the Dead, iirc- the first Legendary with life-steal are a set of claws you get from killing the giant spider in the Basyleus' dungeon, but their base damage is pretty low. Before that Death has to work for his kills- which is probably I was one of the few who didn't feel vanilla Darksiders III was particularly hard- because I was going into it fresh from a DS II replay on high difficulty and enemies hitting hard wasn't anything new to me.
Regarding the length, it was just weird that Acts I and II had proper-looking open worlds with NPCs and quests, while Worlds 3 and 4 were basically just giant dungeons. That (and the trip to Earth for no good reason) made the game seem like it lost direction and was using padding to compensate.
The first 2 DLCs were really good, though.
