I don't rate it much.

No matter how much I would say give us a key, he is right depending how you look at it (but not really a good reason).

But it really depends on how you view your humble monthly money spent, either you're paying for the main games & get some freebies on the side or you spread that money to cover the "extras".

i think the humble originals are meant to be very much non commercial products so yeah, not surprised

then again this makes me kind of glad i didn't buy that one particular monthly

This is really just trading pieces of anecdotal evidence, but so far it's not crashing for me and my video card is rather petty (R9 270) compared to yours. I'll never truly understand why most K-T ports seem to play relatively nice with my system or why their ports are giving more trouble to people with better cards. Settings are all on medium or so and turning ambient occlusion off seems to help the most.

Maybe they are "optimized" for AMD hardware?...
I mean, given the PS4/One AMD GPU... They might work better on Radeon for PC

I've played 15 hours or so without a single crash, although performance at max isn't as good as I expected (I get frequent drops to the low 50s with a 1070)

game actually doesn't look too bad for a 2002 game, has ssao and some modern graphical options, it's actually pretty demanding at 4k with 8x msaa!

thanks best buddy!

I haven't played it but I have been following it for a while on Steam. They've done quite a bit to the game, including increasing much of the detail. I imagine side by side with the original version it looks quite a bit different/superior.

Not really, Atelier Sophie had some AMD exclusive™ issues. Well, to be exact, not 'exclusive', but the menu/synthesizing fps drops were more pronounced on AMD iirc. Their ports are just a lottery.

New Kickstarter update is out for Divinity: Original Sin 2 detailing some new Early Access stuff and, finally, a release date. September 14th! So the GOTY will be among us soon enough.

YouTube description says:

I highlighted the parts that should mean it's the base entire game.

Played through (and finished) Another World Remastered...I'm pretty sure young me would never have got through all the trial and error of some of those sections. I could almost hear the past echoes of my potential agonised screams. Adult me has more patience and restraint though. As a testament to what one programmer achieved in the early 90's it's an amazing example. Short but sweet.

Fun fact, the FBI and local law enforcement consistently say that far right and white supremacist​ groups are a more dangerous threat than ISIS.

If that's the direction Far Cry 5 is going, could be a very interesting narrative.

And then the twist of the game is that it takes place in modern America, but you're estranged from modern technology and the antagonists were crazy Trump voters the whole time.

The games base price is good too

Oh neat, Black Desert on Steam...

I hate these collections.

"You already own some of the items in this bundle. This offer is only available when buying all items at the same time."

Its especially dumb because the people who supported the whole franchise over the years dont get a discount, while new players save almost 50%...
