I noticed both but it is Sunday and i was lazy to fix it XD Also i am need to heck timezones but i will wait for all companies to announce times then i will make sure that times are converted to correct time zone (BST or BR, PST or PT...). Maybe i will change them completely multiple times before E3 who knows
But i like to see early feedback.So jelly.
I had to stick with 4xSGSSAA at 1080p.
Anything more starts the fans on my GPU, and I prefer to have it passively cooled for as long as possible.
(Game still looks amazingly clean)

Apparently that's non canon and was just put into the games? Foxy has the Slow Slow Fruit though.

I still wait for the inevitable 75% on Burning Blood. It was 60% a lot in the past few weeks almost everywhere. Also sold pretty bad it seems. Wonder if now, that its available on the Chinese store since a few days, if that will change. At least it seems like it, since its been unlocked for 1 week and 3% of the total owners are chinese without any (Steam) sale.

Rimworld has kind of killed my interest in tycoon games. It's somehow very good at scratching that itch. Just the right mix of building, management, and cutthroat action RPG. (I'm embracing the new definition of ARPG.)
Paradox Grand Strategy all but did the same to me for Civilization.

Is this the one where the graphics options don't do jack, which effectively means that the PC port is graphically on par with the Vita version?

It's not threadworthy because they were all given away in Humble Bundles and in Steamsales and generally only the pcportbegrace cares about japanese games sales on steam while hiding behind things like "preserveration" or "framerate"

It could've if TiTS wasn't a 2006 era game sold for 30 dollars. There's a reason why FC sold an additionnal 100k AFTER SC release. It's not because of sequel retention, it's because not only the titles are confusing, but XSeed basically stealth released it, with a higher price point. Now of course, in term of revenue, it may work out better for them.
Doin it for you then
Well they're doing 3rd and didn't deep discount it as quickly as Ys6 so they must not be too dissatisfied with sales
Now they really need to get Cold Steel 1 & 2 in there, being newer games I wouldn't be surprised if CS2 does better than SC
Also need some bundles with a decent discount

You also forgot it's irrelevant because the game is not published exclusively on Sony® PlayStation 4
40k owners is seriously impressive considering the lack of promotion XSEED did for the title.
Look at Xanadu Next.
Small wonder Falcom looks at other business partners when it comes to their game releases. NISA may not give the translation TLC XSeed does, and they may not employ wizard-level hackers like Sara or Durante, but at least they are willing to promote, advertise and just about do anything to gain sales.

You can celebrate by making the Styx 2 OT. It hasn't been claimed yet.
Oh yeah i should go claim it.
Plus with NISA handling Ys VIII, there's dual audio, unlike XSEED published Falcom titles.

How is Dragon Quest Heroes in general and on PC? Tempted to pick it up in this sale. Might get RotR instead though.
Edit: Some of the reviews say the game straight up doesn't work on Windows 10. Anyone confirm this?

TitS sequel retention is in line with the how many people have finished FC, unfortunately only around 12% of players have beat it.

If no one else does I have one from an old Steam sale if you'd like it.
awesome! sent a PM
I could swear sc was still at around 30k that's actually good to hear there's some growth
Tbf Xanadu is kinda of a hard sell already, but yeah they are trying to rely too much on word of mouth and such for these games
They're even going as far as doing a French translation which i'm sure XSEED can't provide
They even got a hold of the original script if the steam page is to be believed which is something unfortunately rare for japanese game's western releases
Yeah I noticed, people don't play games
Like me
The e-mail address associated with your account is what is shown in the gift message. There's no getting around that, unfortunately.

Huh. So what's then the point of stripping it from ModBot PMs, to be hidden from the moderators?
Edit: I guess I was thinking narrowly for when the URL matches that of the account but that mightn't always be the case.
Speaking of Atelier being a pretty game, are anyone else's shadows broken? Well, some shadows. For example when I approach the private house that Fritz is staying in, the shadow on the door frame flicker and it's really distracting. It happens elsewhere too but that one's easy to test. Couldn't find a solution to it.

It's quite straigtforward:
Personally, I haven't had a crash in the game in 30+ hours of playing it.
Thanks! I was getting crashes on startup, so I was clearly doing it wrong.
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
Please expect a little bit of ModBot downtime right now. The server ModBot is on was working fine but non-responsive to SSH attempts, and when I rebooted it it didn't come back up at all. I have a ticket in with the server company, but their response times have historically been pretty poor.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It seems that today is my 7th Steam Anniversary.
Wow, this is better than every birthday put together.
Even Microsoft gave me $.25 every year. Valve pls
Valve doesn't even care
But I do
Yeah, the idea is that you're not sharing the e-mail address with the winner, but if the two are one and the same, then there's no need to strip it.
The shadows on vertical surfaces which are oriented towards specific directions in world space are broken from specific camera distances. I reported this before launch already, and it might have gotten a bit less common, but it's not entirely fixed.
Wait, this came out on PC? Damn, I played that game so much on the PS2 when I was a kid.
I'm on Windows 10 and it works for me.
I played through it on Win 10. Have a fairly old notebook and it worked just fine.
It's REALLY bad in Azure. I doubt they'll do anything to fix that game. I'm choosing to beat that first in hopes that everything gets ironed out with Sophie before I move on to that.
any Night in The Woods backer around here? keys will be given out tomorrow

Oh my...
That is... horrifying in all the right ways. I'll probably be too terrified to even try the demo
This just makes me want JuneIt is a bit early but i was in creative mood so i made E3 2017 Streaming banners (at least version 1 XD)
I stopped playing because I am apparently too dumb and don't want to use a guide because once I look once, it's all over.
You win Mr. Blow.
It works on Windows 10, but it is not a good port. There's a memory leak issue with it that degrades performance. If you lock it to 30 FPS you shouldn't have any issues. You can also use Cheat Engine to give you higher resolution in game.
It's a very good looking game and decently fun if you can get past performance issues. Which I can't. It pisses me off that not even my Titan XP can push past the memory leak issue. Frame rate starts at 60 but after 15 minutes it's down to 40FPS and is a jittery mess.
