My problem exactly

Between BG3 and the Cyberpunk 2.0 and DLC my Gametime is already running pretty thin

Perhaps I’ll manage to play it in february

Yeah but in your example both have wildly different prices while COD and Zelda cost the same

No - I’m just saying that the delay in WIFI and the low framerate and small resolution of the screen makes the Steamdeck a sub-par choice for fast-paced games for me. It’s fine if you are only playing on that device but if you also have a desktop to play at it’s far worse imho

For me it’s not about fortnite but more about fast-paced multiplayer on the steam deck

When I played Rocket league on the deck instead of my Desktop with Lan, higher resolution and much higher framerate I always felt as if I’m playing much worse than I usually do which is not fun in the slightest

It’s a great console for singleplayer and more tactical multiplayer but whenever reading the screen in less than a second and reacting very fast to it in an online game is necessary that’s not great…

The most QOL inventory change would be being able to access everyone’s inventory while in camp no matter if they are in my party or not

Having to constantly dismiss someone and get another character to join in order to move stuff back and forth is annoying as fuck

China is not a country that gives subsidies but a corporation that invests in branches it wants to grow

I’d imagine the situation is more dire to those filmmakers and journalists that do narration as a job

Why would you need them if you can just use the voice of an AI impersonating famous speakers like this

Not a huge fan of the gameplay but absolutely loved the atmosphere and mystery of that game.

And the soundtrack was really good, too

I guess it depends on what pedophilia is in the end of how it’s developed.

If it’s more like a sexual preference then it’s probably there already when someone is born and not changeable, but if it’s more like a fetish then those are (afaik) related to experiences and exposures while growing up and actually can change and develop over time - and in that case it could be really dangerous to have that kind of material floating around freely.

80% of the items are traded for less credits than it costs to build the blueprints so they probably hope that by taking the trading option away that people will spend more money on those 2000CR blueprints

It is a monopoly - they just don’t abuse it as much against their audience.

For developers it’s either take their 30% deal or just don’t sell your game because a lot of people only use steam.

Not even Cyberpunk or the Witcher could sell more on gog than on steam even though you knew that there the developers got 100% of the money spent. Gwent standalone flopped so hard on GOG that it had to be rereleased with limited features on steam and sold more there

People are just fundamentally lazy so it totally is a problem that you have one store with such a massive market share even if it’s very convenient for the end-user they can completely exploit their position against publishers.

Sure EPICs way of making games exclusive to their store is not elegant but without that no-one would choose that store over steam

I’m in a long distance relationship and regularly go 4h by train

The Steamdeck is so worth it if you travel regularly

An inventory management button that would automatically distribute wares to the character with the least carried stuff would already hope a lot - especially if we would be able to save that every cup, fork, etc would automatically be marked as wares and if there was a way to mark multiple things as wares at the same time (and if " sell all wares" would sell everything from all inventories present and not just for the talking character)

Selling wares remotely that are in camp and having an option to automatically send everything marked as wares to camp would also help a lot

I feel as if BG3 could do a lot more with the “wares” marker to make the weight limit less annoying

Moving cups and plates from one char to another just isn’t fun

The only thing annoying with BG3 is that “sell all wares” only refers to those at the current character

I’d have liked it if stuff marked as wares would always be automatically distributed between the characters (or that there was a button to do this)

Also why can I select multiple items at once and move them between characters but not mark multiple items as wares?

Why can’t I save that every cup I pick up should go to wares automatically?

I feel as if BG3 could’ve made the whole carrying thing far less annoying with ways to do less inventory management

Even a lot of the AAA single player games have day 1 DLCs with skins or 15 different deluxe packages for preorder or something similar though

Doesn’t need to be the in-game microtransactions but it’s very rare today that everyone starts out with the same stuff in AAA games today

I’d guess that the series X would need to show at least full HD

With the Steamdeck it only needs 720p which is a pretty big gain in performance

I think the most important part is that it launched without DRM on GOG and was able to be pirated from day 1 and it STILL was a huge success because people knew that the game isn’t trying anything shady to get even more money from you

It’s just something people actually want to support and not like people feel like even if they buy the game they only have half an experience if they don’t spend more money later

I really hope the next financial report from Larian is making people think differently about the necessity of putting aggressive DRM in their games

People don’t pirate because they don’t want to pay - they pirate because they don’t trust the game to bit pull more shady shit later and not be worth it in the end

I really hope they take a good look and overthink their approach even if that means more delays.

With their last games their track record looks more as if they are about to make a new Assassin’s Creed game as the next Dragon Age Installment

After some fiddling in the first week I never really cared about getting my gog games to my Deck - but now for that I’d be interested what’s the best option to install, keep up to date and sync my saves?

Celebrity cults really need to die out…

People going crazy over what person X did have for breakfast is annoying and useless as it is but with influencers that shit reached a new level.

Also if people are occupied with that they have less capacities for more important things…
