If you use the bridge for Proton Mail to connect it with an email client, you can do that.

Good to know they offer this. From what I last read from Proton about email replies was the receiver (if they didn't use Proton themselves, or, presumably have PGP set up) needed to reply via a generated web page, which seems too convoluted for general use, although I've read some comments that suggest you can disable this (though that's kind of the selling point of Proton, apart from say this extra nice inbox feature).
Even with a 10% off the price is too much for me, 31.50€ for a Remastered is really an expensive price considering remasters usually launch for 20€ or so. Even Star Ocean The Last Hope, which is 4K and 60 fps launched for less than 20€. ZOE2 Remastered is 4k/60 fps too and it launched for 30€ (I got it just because I paid 15€ for it from Humble, the 30€ price was still too much), so I see no reason for this game to be 35€. I'll get it eventually down the road when it's discounted, considering the PS3 version was discounted for less than 5€ several times, and on PS3/360 the game was 1080p upscaled (and 30 fps), I doubt on PC there are so many users using a 4K monitor, the majority (like me) will probably still play it on a 1080p monitor with 60 fps. I think remasters should be cheap, a way to get some money back by remastering an old title and selling it again, considering the work you do when you remaster a game is way less than creating a new game from zero, 35€ is almost the price of a new, low budget release like Styx, in example. I also think the reason remasters sell enough is because they are also priced as remasters.
Slightly off-topic, and definitely super dependent on each person - but which 5-10 reviewers should I follow on opencritic? I removed everyone, and want to stick to a core that are decent (I follow in alphabetical order - angrycentaur, eurogamer, giant bomb, pc gamer, rock paper, and angry joe).
I assume since they are self publishing the game they upped the price
PlayStation blog confirmed it at $35 USD and everyone's been running with that since lol.
PlayStation store Japan is charging ¥3,996 (with 10% discount.) So the 30-35 range seems about right for rest of the world.
Edit: Too slow. I think the price is fair given the amount of work put into the remaster. They went straight for the 4K jugular, with videos and textures. I'm excited.
Well, considering EU users usually get fu**ed pretty bad with regional pricing, I'm expecting a 40€ price for it if the price in dollars is 35. See what Sega did with Shenmue, which is 35€ here. At least until a couple of years ago we got screwed with a 1:1 conversion, still paying much more than american users, but now it's even worse with unfair prices.
The amount of work is very similar to many remasters we saw. I mean, if you consider this than the ZOE2 Remaster should cost 50€ because they put a brand new VR mode in it? Even excluding the new models CyGames created for the game. Another example: Chrono Trigger. Considering the resolution available on PC is the highest one between all platforms the game released on, this could be considered a remastered...but SE didn't charge 30 or 40€ for it.
A remaster in my opinion is a remaster, you can't charge as much as you want, because in the end you just got an old game and updated it. I mean, a lot of later PC ports are, in fact, remasters, because they run with a higher resolution compared to console and even better FPS. Take the FFXIII Trilogy, in example. Or Bayonetta and Vanquish. Now the trend is porting a game, call it Remastered and call the day, but usual those re-release are in fact low budget projects because publishers know people are paying for an old game released time ago with a coat of paint on it. Of course no one say publishers can't price their games as they want, but than you can't cry about people not buying your game when the price is out of the market.

Yeah, it's hard. I wish I could afford it but it's sadly not within reason for me around this time of year :/
Was GUNHOUND ever in a bundle? Can't remember that I bought it
Exchanging encrypted emails is not the main point of ProtonMail for the general public. Most of the time, your penpal will be using Gmail anyway, because they do not care, so unless you go through this convoluted procedure to ensure nobody will read your trivial email, it will just be like your usual email exchange: you don't tick the "encryption" box and everything works as usual for your penpal.
In my opinion, the main point of PM for the general public is that your storage of archived emails is encrypted on your side. So, nobody is going to perform some data-mining on your emails, at best they will have access to the email headers, dates and email adresses of your penfriends (if they are the police and have a Swiss court order).
Of course, if you are a reporter/dissident in an authoritarian country, the situation is different and you want to make sure nobody is going to eavesdrop on you via your email exchanges.
You guys told me I no longer have to individually confirm all my 0.05c card listings on the mobile app but I still have to :(
That company has at least one other game on Steam, published by Rising Star Games.
Maybe it will be removed as well:
I fortunately own both already. :)
Took a quick look on those I found. Overall very positive, most of them focus on Colombia level. Confirmed one of the assassination methods teased in a trailer as well as a related challenge quest:
Kill by pushing people into a pond with a Hippo.
Kill all three targets with the Hippo.
Edit: Saw the one from PC Gamer, the title says it all:
Hitman 2's new levels feel like the series at its peak

I believe it wasn't part of any of the usual bundles.
There was a Steam "bundle" of 2D Action titles from Playism though, maybe you got it as part of that?
Yup
Gunhound wqs never in a bundle at leasst accorsing to osthereanydeal
Left Alive Day One/Pre-order bonuses. Will be available to pre-order starting at 12:00 EST, 09:00 PST.
Fucking hurricane is heading directly to me, so they cancelled work.
Would be a great time to have a dedicated Steam handheld device that works without needing internet access.

It has been yeah. I'm there day 1 though. Mechs, bullets, third-person, great artwork. These are among my favorite things.
The most important VC4 DLC just released, huzzah!
I'm still waiting for some actual hands-on HD gameplay before i make up my mind.
I'm interested but the way it is being ahndled doesn't instill me with confidence.

I'm not familiar with this game. Is there a reason they are trying to make it look like a metal gear game in this ad?
Oh a new thread about a shitty PC game, this should be filled with perfectly reasonable posts I am sure.
Wait, nevermind, this is Era.

Security/password recovery/2FA stuff as per usual. The free plan also limits you by only allowing one account to be associated with one mobile number.
It's really erratic at the moment.
I've just listed the cards I picked up via the most recent Humble Monthly. A couple of them went straight up for sale but most needed confirmation, including some duplicates of the cards which were immediately cleared. Weird.
That's why I wish the PC community here on ERA would branch out, and create our own forums.
Outside of this topic, you can't really discuss anything regarding the PC, without some idiotic comments, and the moderators do nothing about it, even when reported.
If you criticize something regarding the Switch, for example, you risk being banned.
When it comes to the PC, everything goes: any topic regarding any upcoming multiplatform game, like the upcoming Soul Calibur 6, there's the usual comments about cheating or piracy on PC.
I thought these forums where supposed to cover every platform, and be welcoming to users of every platform.
For me personally, the fact that I trust ProtonMail to store my emails in encrypted form is the biggest selling point (without access to the keys, which are solely in my possession, and without which I might restore access to my account, but only by essentially losing my emails). That's something no one else can, or is willing to offer.
Sending end-to-end encryption is a nice feature (which is what you're talking about, and it's just a feature, you can send normal unencrypted emails too), but I'm mostly receiving emails from various platforms (Steam, Amazon, etc.) which are sending them in unencrypted form anyway. For normal people who want to use encrypted mail between each other, ProtonMail is likely the best option, yes. Or PGP, though I wouldn't expect normal non-tech-savy people to be able to set it up (cue joke from XCKD).
May I introduce you to our lord and saviour, the GPD Win 2?
Was just about to recommend that XD
Heck if one got backups via GOG Connect, they are golden.
At this point it wouldn't surprise me if mods just glance over my reports given how much shit I report.
It's gotten better since Jaw was added to the team, but the issue of inconsistent moderation depending on how much the mod team care about a specific issue is a wider problem on this site not limited to just PC gaming. The amount of rubbish I've seen in off topic is insane.
And yeah, a certain members (Derrick?) ban a few months ago for "console warring" for entering a Switch thread and saying he felt 720p sub 30fps on some game I don't remember was pathetic springs to mind. Much, much worse things happen in every PC thread.

The thing I have witnessed in this "PC Gaming" thread is that some people always need to vent / rant in this very thread for annoying posts from other threads. To be completely honest, this kind of action in fact driven me away from this thread until recently due to my inner hype for Hitman 2.
Meanwhile, the admin and mod team does need to improve if there is bias modding. Personally I have seen some eye-rolling comments from various threads that are neither warned or banned, but I don't feel there is a platform bias. Maybe I am not looking too hard.

I reported several users and posts, when things are particularly ridiculous and antagonizing. Outside of one user receiving a warning, nothing was ever done regarding the reported posts and users.
I really don't understand the moderation of these forums. When that "debacle" happened (when some users decided to come into this topic to antagonize PC users, because of that Bayonetta re-release), several of the regulars that post on this topic received 1 week bans.
Yet, someone posts the following, and receives the same "punishment":
