It definitely is OT worthy. It will also be released on consoles later this year
I'm gonna stick with Alpha 3 for now. I definitely want to get to Third Strike, but I wanna focus on one game at a time.
I completed that gnome achievement years ago. It totally put me off achievements it sucked so much.
I really want this game. I do. I even paid full price for Runner 2 on release.
Its word of mouth like this that gives me pause. Is there really that much back tracking?

The more I read about the new Battlefield, the more I'm interested in it. Can't believe they didn't cover so many of these details during the "reveal"
All the Fallout 76 chatter yesterday inspired me to reinstall Fallout 4 and pick back up on my 200+ hour main save.
Christ this game is just as addictive as I remember.
Bethesda really has nailed that sandbox "explore-scavenge-quest-combat-loot" gameplay loop better than any dev I can think of.
I love the flexibility of player choice. Being able to tailor the gameplay session to my current mood, be it carefree & Zen (explore/scavenge/craft) or more focused & engaged (quest/combat/loot).
Getting me more hyped for Fallout 76 in spite of not being a fan of the DayZ/Rust gameplay model. I have no interest in being harassed by others in an online PvP setting. But if anyone can at least crack the door to me giving it a shot, it's Bethesda Studios and the Fallout IP.
But I'm still holding out hope that there's a completely Offline mode in whatever 76 turns out to be.

I've been a console-exclusive gamer all my life. This is the month when I finally join the PC-gaming platform. The biggest change is embracing digital when I've always bought physical, it's a little scary but I'm sure I'll get use to it lol.
This was me back in 2012. Buying games on sale through steam or other sites helps with the transition a lot. Especially when you buy some of your old faves which you've never had the opportunity to run at a higher Resolution of Framerate.
Cheap digital games and bundles will make your backlog grow faster than any of your previous platforms combined ;P
dO You use an NVidia or AMD card?
Bus Sim 18 is my only lock so far. Quite enjoyed Bus Sim 16.
If Euro Truck and Farm Sim are considered A-tier Mundane Vehicle Sims, I'd say Bus Sim is B-tier.
That's still high praise though. As a MVS connoisseur there are very few A and B tier productions. Beyond that, the quality just drops off a cliff into hardcore shovelware territory. Stuff not even worth mentioning. So even a B tier game like Bus Sim or Gold Rush are worthy for genre fans.
I'm also keeping an eye on Cultist Simulator and Jurassic Park this month to see how they fare. Though I'm not optimistic how JP will run on my aging laptop.
I'm straight-up on media blackout for this one.
At this point the only think left to do is wait for the Add to Cart button to show up on the Steam page.
Apart from the first boss fight which was just awful I didn't have much problem with them. But yeah, the items only appearing after you have spoken to the quest giver is annoying. After the first world I didn't even bother with 100%ing the levels. Was hard to not 100% but probably better for me.
After you grab a sticker/collectible you don't have to complete the level.
The art style is not cheap or bad imo but too busy.
There is only back tracking if you want to search for collectibles. You don't have to finish the level picking them up but a few are near the end of a level. And in most cases you can't get everything in one run.
It's okay. I wouldn't recommend it for the asking price though. The Runner gameplay is still fun. Worst part of the game is that it doesn't have the trampoline sound of the first two games.
This is not new. It's from their magazine published early this month i think.
Thanks for the link anyway.
BTW. Only 10 days left until we see first gameplay and more info about the game. (They are also revealing online component of the game)
when you think about it's way less scary than having digital money, and no cash, and we all got used to that, because convenience

Gonna be buying a new Note 8 soon and replacing my iPhone 6S.
Not too worried about the Steam App since I already sold everything I don't need, but am curious how Streaming is gonna be like using it and for playing many of my ye olde games using it with emulators.

I'm not sure I would hold out hope for an offline mode. Blizzard did the same thing with Diablo 3. They just lose too much money if these huge AAA games are offline because they can't sell you more shit. It doesn't fit into the GaaS model.
I'm just hoping for a really good deal on Nioh. That is the one I want most in the summer sale. Would be great if its an early unlock tomorrow in the monthly.
This is good to know, thanks!
What? Please tell me this is a joke, that sound was beautiful! One of my favorite tunes in any game ever.
I can't wait for you to post during your first Steam sale. You'll either buy one game and use ERA for recommendations or go buck wild and grab everything you can get your hands on.
Are the retro levels only unlocked with collectables like runner 2?
I'm pretty sure they are if your library is completely empty.
That said, in that case the better Humble Bundles should also be excellent.
If you're somebody who has been using Steam for a long time and only hoping for sale on titles released within the current year? Sure. For new people though? It's still pretty good.
Sure, for a newcomer they're fine. Still worse than they used to be.
Yet today there are also far more avenues for cheap games than there used to be. Consoles have also started to do sales events on digital titles.
The first steam sale is still like walking into a toy store as a kid. And new people to Steam don't have a reference point for all the old things (meta games, timed sales, etc) so it's just a huge price drop for them for (mostly) everything on the store.
I saw that yesterday but didn't believe it was a film studio. Good for them though if it helps keep the lights on and independence.
Hey, here's a subbed version of the latest New Gundam Breaker trailer:
Not really a big fan of the VN elements, but it's probably still better than Build Divers' average writing level.

Spiderweb Software's Kickstarter (for Queen's Wish: The Conqueror) has blown past its goal in under a day. $38k/$30k.
RPGs are back, y'all.
I guess it's to be expected now that Steam is far-and-away market leader, but it really sucks all the same.

The sales are worse than they used to be, though. The sales these days are categorically weaker than the older ones.

Digital has also been the best way to enjoy

Have fun, PC has 10 times the content all other consoles combined (that is, if your definition of content does extend past AAA TPP cinematic shooter).
Yes, but now they're here for the good times, too.
I was hoping someone with a better knack for writing in English would have done one by now, but since no one came forward, can you please add my recommendation for Overload to the OP:
Matt Toschlog and Mike Kulas, the creators of the Descent series, are back with a spiritual successor to the series that helped popularize the 6DoF (6-degree-of-freedom) shooters during the 90's.
Overload is the Descent successor fans of the series kept hoping for. It features the familiar fast and furious gameplay you would expect from the genre, a story by the writer of FREESPACE 2, and a kick-ass soundtrack by Descent series veteran composers Dan Wentz, Allister Brimble, and Jerry Berlongieri.
The game features multiple single-player (story campaign, survival mode) and online multiplayer modes, ship customization, and VR support.
If you've never experienced one before none of that matter. price drops are price drops
I think I'd like to play a Spiderweb games on of these days. Any recommendations?
