It’s not going to result in lower prices for consumers. It’s going to result in higher prices on Steam.

It’s also going to fragment the game market on PC. That may or may not be a good thing depending on who you ask, but personally, I like not having to hunt around for the best store to purchase my game in. I go to Steam and I know I’m not getting completely shafted. This is essentially going to allow scummy corps like Ubisoft and EA to implement a “Steam tax” because I don’t want to use their shitty, bloated, spyware riddled miserable excuse for a storefront.

If this doesn’t exist, someone should get on it because that sounds amazing!

more humane than they deserve tbh

I have a better idea. There’s only like 3000 - 3400 billionaires. Let’s just put them all on an uninhabited island, and bomb that instead! Wouldn’t even need to be a nuke to get them all!

Replace AI with something like Flex Tape, and you really get a sense of how stupid the push to get AI into everything is. Flex Tape is great, but I don’t need it when ordering a pizza ffs.

If anonymity is your goal, then surely you wouldn’t want a unique last name? you’d want Smith, Nguyen or Wang

Pfft. Learn to time travel n00b. Skill issue.

Just got my Steam controller, and it’s amazing how many friends I have who are just like: “Ew, I never use a controller. I played <insert some game that would be better with a controller here> with a mouse and keyboard”

I hate how close that guess is 🫠

Dark Souls/Souls likes in generals. If I want to bang my head against the same problem endlessly and get hopelessly frustrated, I’d just do my day job

I’ve not seen one in the wild yet, but I will refuse to scan them. TIL I am a robot.

Ah looks like I got the name slightly wrong. close enough

I kinda want the opposite. I want official alerts only. NewRandomYouTubeGamerX64_L33tSauce’s opinion on “What a good price for the Steam Machine would be, and 10 reasons it won’t be that price” really doesn’t interest me. Has Valve said anything new? No? Then kindly STFU.

The Witness is polarising. People either think it’s incredible, or they think it’s dogshit. There is no in between.

(I am in the latter camp, sorry)

Games similar to portal:

• The Talos Principle 1 & 2
• Antichamber
• Superliminal
• Viewfinder
• Manifold Garden

Similar to Firewatch:

• Umurangi Generation
• Return of the Obra Dinn

Other stuff that might interest you that I haven’t seen already recommended:

• Journey
• Abzu
• Exo One
• Wytchwood
• Cairn (tentatively. This game can get stressful)
• Dinkum
• Untitled Goose Game
• A Lego game (Any of them. They all follow the same formula)
• Flower

No idea if any of those work on Mac though. If you have an intel based mac you can use bootcamp to dual boot windows, and unlock maaaaany games.

is that bugs bunny on the podium?

They’ve just released a new game Kiln

It’s pretty fun! Also their last game didn’t get the attention it deserved imho. Keeper

This. Tell her that if you have to buy new uniforms, you’re going to make certain it’s the last time. Apes together sieze the means of education… or something

I think canonically there are no transgender or non-binary characters in SDV (Except the dwarf maybe, but c’mon)

Which means there are potentially 6 that are not girls, but at least 5 (because “you” are one of the 12, meaning someone has been left out. Probably Shane.) 3 of them are pictured.

Thank you for providing me this opportunity to be the best kind of correct

eta: Wait, unless Shane is the one who took the screenshot! In which case definitely 6

I… need to take things less seriously
