On purpose or just your average western potato creator. :rofl:

Nah, with the news that there will be in game purchases, I think it was definitely on purpose to incentivize people into buying cosmetics. The issue right now is that there are dozens of clones running about and they can solve that with the Micro store. xD

Grinding gemstones in Hades to get the last of the House of Hades cosmetic items before 1.0 :grin:

still playing it, kinda digging it and guess i’m invested enough to keep playing the weekly episodes; the last 2 have been noticeably shorter, but i see that as a positive, cuz it’s now easier to finish them in one sitting and is better for that intended sitcom feel they’re after.

I need to finish Alan Wake so i can play Control AWE DLC

Too many games, too little time.

During past few weeks i have been playing :

Hitman 2 Yes still playing it. 9 or so achievements left out of ~140 , i wonder if i’m going to manage to get them all . Would sure be a proud moment :slight_smile: I think i have never 100% 'ed such a big game.

MGS V Phantom Pain in Ass This game is too long and repetitive and Kojima loves himself too much imho. Took me 37 hours and basically repeating same missions in the same locations to get bored of it and put it away for the better time. Maybe later?

Void Bastards A decent game for what it is but not exactly what i was expecting it to be. 9 hours in and i’m actually bored of it. It’s just too mean and 3 out of 4 runs just ends at the first ship because of RNG . I cant say i didint like it but i dont feel like i have time or need to chip away at it. Putting it away for a better time.

Euro Truck Sim 2 a great game for what it is when you dont feel like actually playing anything. Put up some Metal or Rock and go deliver some apples. I do enjoy having few games which doesnt feel like i have to constantly play them. Just drop in/drop out kind of deal.

Cash Banooca N’Sane Trilogy ( As Caddicarus calls it ) These are truly games of yester year . I will be happy if i will manage to finish all regular levels ( which amounts to ~30% of each game) . I most definitely dont have time or patience to go through all the collectibles,time trails,secret levels and so on. I understand how this was a decent design philosophy back then average kid could afford 1 game a month at best so packing game with insanely difficult and time consuming content was a good idea.

Vampyr F*ck it and burn it. 30 hours wasted just for my save files to get corrupted. I honestly feel super salty about this game and especially daft developers.

That pretty much covers my past few weeks.

Not that anyone cares :smiley:

About Vampyr, don’t you have cloud saves enabled? Or did they get corrupted too?

5 Likes

They did. This game only has 1 save file because 'choices matter , bruh ’ and all i can find in cloud now is that single corrupted save file , lol .

6 Likes

Yeah, I know. Fortunately I didn’t have any problem when I played.
I asked because the corrupt file could be only on your end and the one in the cloud could be intact.
Sorry for your bad luck.

Thanks to @Danacscott I’ve been able to play 8-Bit Adventures: The Forgotten Journey. I instantly fell in love with the 8 bit graphics and OST, so it is really cool to be able to play it! Sadly the game does not support Steam overlay, so no screenshots, but its like playing an actual old school 8 bit game. Got that cheesy tone, too! Tons of fun! :slight_smile:

Hm… is it Ctrl + Alt + Prtscrn? Alt instead of Shift. I did one of those lately and it worked. Had to paste in a photo editor though, like MS Paint or whatever the upgrade is called now.

alt+print screen will capture active window in windows. If your active window is full screen then just print screen is sufficient. But yes you will need somewhere to paste the captured image to.

(Yea, I was using snippy and such, but it got annoying to alt tab and take shots, so I just stopped xD)

I played a few hours of Crusader Kings III. I’m SO relieved this isn’t another Imperator: Rome. It is fantastic! Really love the UI, just wish there were more political map modes to swap between. Oh, and a ruler designer. lol

Pretty sure they’ll give you more of, well everything, in future DLCs. Glad to hear you’re enjoying the base release game though. Do you feel like the game is complete or are there obvious things missing that really should be there?

4 Likes

Honestly, I’d probably need more time with it, but at the moment the only thing I think that is missing (and will be added later for free) is the ruler designer. This new entry in the series is really, really heavy on the role playing aspect and it doesn’t feel as complete in that regard not being able to create your own character.

Other than that, I do kinda miss technologies, though the new method in which they introduced tech is interesting, just don’t have a lot of agency about it.

So I was playing dirt rally 2 a bit.

Fuck those mailboxes in particular


Okay, so honestly, this annoys the crap out of me. EVERY. SINGLE. BANNER. I get promoting the game, okay sure, maybe here or there, but making every banner this same thing gets really old, really fast. Hell the developers for Project Cars 3 aren’t even the same ones that made Dirt Rally 2. It actually annoyed me enough that I put Project Cars 3 on my ignore list.

First. I’ve made my return to Final Fantasy XIV. So that’s been fun.

Also picked up a few things on sale a while back

If you like Final Fantasy Tactics, this might be worth a go. Some reviews have been mixed, I’m liking the game so far, and as long as I don’t run into some horrible mess This should be a good time.

It’s an interesting metroidvania style game. It’s a bit slow and akward. The artstyle is very 8-bit. Which appeals to me, but maybe not others. If I’ll need to spend more time with it, not bad so far.

The race can wait first check the mail :sweat_smile:

Cool! XIV is so good, glad you’re having fun! Also, what do you think of Fae Tactics? I really, really, really love FFT and don’t know which game to get that claims to be “inspired” by it.

It’s why I got Fell Seal - reminded me very of Tactics, with all the job classes to unlock etc. I’d play Tactics again if I could, never did figure out how to unlock Mime. :laughing:
