It is good but those numbers on Steam are pretty low. That ray tracing requirement probably pushed most buyers to Xbox / Game Pass and most won’t even bother to check the game out until they upgrade their GPUs.
Steam hardware survey shows what kind of hardware most users have, why put such a high requirement when most won’t be able to play your game?
Yep, that is why using Steam numbers are just a half-thought measuring stick, all of those Bethesda games are probably doing better numbers on Gamepass. I was going to mention it but I wasn’t talking about number of players but quality and word of mouth.
I wouldn’t be able to tell you, but PC Gamers (I guess all Gamers but I always find PC users more susceptible to it) have been big proponents of Hardware and Fidelity over Game. Not Bethesda’s fault of course but it is just the logical conclusion to that, Tech has outpaced Gamers in this instance.
I don’t know much about PCs so I am useless in this discussion. Maybe Todd just hates NVIDIA? Maybe Todd secretly hates PC gamers?
More like he loves Nvidia since their cards, even older ones, have better RT support than the AMD equivalents.
Sonic-Music was always great, i personally never liked any of the actual games I’ve played but the music was always fantastic. Then they started putting vocals into the tunes and it just became cringe.
4th patch for STALKER 2 just dropped, and check it out @Rimland, first batch of A-Life fixes 
I haven’t really followed much community discourse on Helldivers 2 recently, but ohhh man, another live-service monetized blunder…
(And another PR disaster - especially right after a big win like the Game Awards and Major Free Update - got Arrowhead to be a little more generous!)
TLDR: the items were originally datamined to come in a Warbond set (think battle-pass progression at a fixed price). But… and this was AH’s decision apparently, not Sony, they decided to sell each individual item (at a much MUCH higher price in total than a WB)
Usually, extra content is unlocked through a Warbond costing 1000 Super Credits (£7.99), which includes multiple weapons, armours, and cosmetic items. The Killzone 2 items are instead available to purchase separately, with all six items totalling 1,975 Super Credits - so two batches of 1000 Super Credits totalling £15.98, essentially doubling the price.
… and that’s only half of the planned crossover content! (Essentially “Page 1” of a Warbond) They’d want 20$ MORE for the second set. So, of course, backlash ensued.
Thankfully, they’re taking this negative bullet to the chest (honestly any normal greedy company wouldn’t fold this hard), as the items in the second set rollout will be given for free to the community.
@EvilGeniusRo Can’t wait for Stalker 2 to make it to PS5. Sadly my PC just isn’t able to run it, but it looks really good.
Posted this already in the deals thread but in case more people see it in here vampire survivors is now on the epic games store the main game is free there for 24 hours and the dlcs are on sale
That was my guess as well, but if that is indeed the case, then people don’t really grasp the meaning of “innovative” 
Nice! Hopefully within a few months, it’ll be a game fully worthy of its predecessors 
Dear Ubisoft,
I swear they released this last year I remember seeing people complaining about it
For me version 1.1 already brought the game to the same worth as it’s predecessors, the A-Life improvements alone is what makes me think that. One or two major patches like this one will fix the game more so than the og games were ever fixed 
Here’s a slice of the 1.1 A-Life in action (nothing in this video would happen prior to this patch)
Cool. Good thing the devs are taking feedback and acting quickly upon it then 
They actually just shadow dropped issue 7 of the tf2 comic valve please I’m begging you never change

Wasn’t expecting etalus to be the first post launch character but I’m definitely not complaining he was my second most wanted out of the ones we are missing from the first game
Cyberpunk skins and a car are being added to Fortnite tonight also adverts featuring samurai versions of Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper were found recently
Crossposting it here for better visibility, great article.
Coffeezilla, a Youtuber/journalist, who investigates online scams, and is currently being sued by Logan Paul for “”“defamation”“”, did a three part series talking about the underage gambling and casinos that use skins from Counter-Strike 2, and how Valve is doing nearly nothing to stop the issue, despite it being going on for over 8 years now. It’s over an hour long over 3 videos but I do find it a very interesting watch.
