It should have been called Reimagination to set expectations for existing fans. FF7 original is probably my favorite game of all time (tie with FF6) and I still did not play Remake (lost interest waiting too long and then asking price on Steam is 80 Euros, fuck you SquareEnix!).

But you know, I am not entirely opposed to changes in story and character handling, if its done well. They even changed up the battle system. To me this is an opportunity to re-live the game, to experience it with new perspective and see details I could not before. If it was exactly the same game with better graphics, that’s just playing the same game again. But the Remake… ahem, I meant Reimagination, is different. And you know what, I kinda like this idea. But off course, I still did not play and don’t know how bad it is. And oh god, I hope they don’t change the important story line in part 2… this would be a huge fuck.

So does Rockstar, Valve and Microsoft investigate for any unlicensed commercial usage of the Intellectual Property they own and copyright violations by others. Some are less aggressive, that’s for true. If it’s not, then Pokemon Company or Nintendo simply don’t care.

Loot boxes should not be in computer games.

As much as I like Valve, Valve is one of the major player bringing and normalizing Lootboxes into games. Even before the Lootboxes was a thing on smartphones, let alone before they arrived on other AAA games as well. I think this is the worst contribution of Valve to videogames. And this statement comes from someone who usually defends this company.

I’m glad to not have invested into the Capcom games. The article talks about Steam Deck only, but I assume its broken on Linux as well (“Linux” as a word isn’t found on the article).

Doesn’t come out of nowhere to my knowledge. It is quite anticipated game by many, as it was shown with trailers before on big shows. Everyone was wondering what kind of game this will be and everyone just knew it as “Pokemon with guns” where you can catch and slave other Pokemon like creatures. I’m actually surprised that so many didn’t heard of the game before.

For reference

In the past, Ayaneo has been somewhat reticent to discuss its plans concerning SteamOS and as this new venture is not a direct collaboration with Valve, I should imagine that they want to test the waters first.

If this is not a collaboration with Valve, then I assume it’s not SteamOS. Maybe HoloISO that is created by “fans” with the aim of installing an operating system that is extracted and rebuild from the final installation on the Deck (if I understand the project right). The goal is to have HoloISO be able to install on systems other than the Deck itself, to get a similar experience. Maybe the Ayaneo will make use of HoloISO instead?

The project still needs funding and time to be build, so nothing is set in stone. Valve also works “hard” to bring SteamOS to other systems, so maybe there is a plan to do this. Now the Deck OLED is out, Valve probably have more time to do this (SteamOS 4.0?). Either way, I am very happy and curious what will happen next.

I expected a more sensible default, such as 365 days. It would also be helpful to have a ‘favorite’ option to prevent deletion. This is a major letdown.

I wasn’t saying both games are similar, but more comparing the situation both games not worth buying day 1. Developers adding new functionality, features and iron out bugs and performance issues. If I like the core gameplay and story, that’s another story. But just like with Cyberpunk, I will wait for the game being worked on and buy it later for a cheaper price.

Just like Cyberpunk 2077, I will wait for this game to be worked on and get it for a discount later. I learned my lesson long time ago, not to buy big AAA games at launch.

When I purchased (you can check it yourself by putting it in the cart), there was a notice that this promotion is not applicable to gifts. So it might be an intended special promotion for owners of the previous original version of the game. And Steam glitches out there maybe. If this price is available to you too, then I assume it’s intended.

Without context this is meaningless. Are you gotten blocked in Github from a specific repository? And why posting it here, what do you try to achieve?

I finally finished the last job in Cyberpunk 2077. Now I am ready for the next thing. As a fan of emulation, there are a few games where I am in the middle of the game and need to resume playing: There is Crusader of Centy and Metroid Prime. Or I start playing a new game such as Final Fantasy 7 Remake or Resident Evil 2 Remake on PC. The Finals is also interesting but that is something I would have to play on the Xbox Series S, because it does not work on a Linux PC. Baldur’s Gate 3 is on my radar, but I don’t know when I’m ready for as it seems to be very time consuming.

While this is not a nice, I don’t understand why this is a big deal? And why anyone would pirate the game as a result of this 2 Dollars increase (which in percentage as ~33% increase sounds worse than it is). Others are doing this too, adjust the price after long period of supporting it. And for such a low price and as an indie developer, I think it’s only fair. Also for anyone thinking of pirating the game out of principle, rethink it again. Game gets deals over time and at some point it was available for ~4 Euros (which should be more like 3.79 Dollars or whatever it might be).

The game in question is https://store.steampowered.com/app/1846170/Iron_Lung/ BTW. It has Very Positive reviews on Steam and is a horror themed short game. And the dev doesn’t even come up with fake excuses or anything like that, it’s straight honest about making more money. Which is fair to me! And before anyone accuses me, I am not affiliated with the dev or game, never purchased or received anything; it’s the first time I hear about the game. Just mentioning it, because of my positive words defending the price increase. This is a rare situation where I am fine with it.

It’s a little bit confusing title, because it’s not Steam that has made the games for Free. This is not a comparable situation to what Epic Games does. Steam has nothing to do with the offering, other than hosting the game on the platform. All games are made Free by their own publishers.

Also it includes games that are always Free in price, such as Age of Advent. It serves as a sort of demonstration of the full game. And it never had a price attached to it, if I see it correctly.

Twitch should have a second version targeted for adults and everything else. It could live together with Twitch for Gaming and save for kids. Let’s call them Twitch Gaming and Twitch Live. And all problems are solved, world hunger has been defeated.
