What thread?
I played some of the tutorials the other day. I didn't notice anything wrong with the game. I have the GOG.com version. I think I had to change the config to get the resolution to 1440x900. I think you can also do Large Adress Aware. Steam version is similar but it may be a different build number. Not sure about mods. I'm gaming on W 8.1 i5 4670 with 770.

Put those chips in a cool, dry place and wait for DF's GTAV PC articles.
What's hilarious is that so many DF articles get waves and waves of people crying about XB1 bias, but I think it's always been pretty clear their favoured platform has always been PC.
Don't worry, another platform war thread will pop up in short order.
That lock message though. So good.
Round 2 will begin with the DF GTA 5 comparison.

Ah, ok. I know that! It goes very well in hot summer days.
Speak about that. It was 20 degrees yesterday. Summer is coming and I fear it will be a scorching one.
Here's a quick giveaway. Enjoy!

Its good you are saying this now instead of a year ago because you would have had to find a bomb shelter for the fallout.

Pretty interesting to see that even without the financial advantage of being one system and this probably cheaper prices for Sony, any consumer can build a PC which performs similar with current games.
That's what I took out of it. Futureproofness etc. of course were talked a lot but I think the OP was clear that it disregards that and only focuses on current time.

I'm sending over my Stukas as we speak. Gone Home terrible, pfffft.

I've got no problem with walking simulators, I just didn't like that the story ended up not having anything supernatural in it (my fault for the expectations I guess). Loved the 90's music from it though, glad the developer got the exposure it did.

It's a mediocre experience, you are not missing much, at least it was short.
To the Moon is a infinitely superior artsy game.
Haven't played To the Moon yet, but Gone Home is way better than most games I played.
FFX for example was a trainwreck compared to Gone Home.
Thank God I have good taste.

But it was always a very polarizing game...
To the Moon has a more interesting premise, but the father's story alone in GH is better realized than the entirety of the former.

Gone Home is really good at atmospheric and environmental storytelling, all without any ridiculous hooks. It's exactly what it sounds like, and is all the better for it. I liked it a lot because it told a story in a way that only a video game could - through play.
Also, Gone Home is way better than Dear Esther (through TTM is better than both). Y'all know it to be true, in your heart of hearts.

That's a long time to download something!
It's over. After four days and some change it's finally over.
Omg that peak, my sympathies Jase.
My internet connection has been playing up a lot over the past week or so, but I managed to get full speed for the final small leg of the download.

So is Valve on its annual Hawaii trip then? Something big and potentially very bad is about to go down in CS and the Vive dev kit sign-ups were planned for last week lol

don't forget you have to take Volvo Time™ into account and adjust any dates they give out according to that

What? A gang war? How can I participate? Love me some Warriors action.
That was almost twice as much of my 359kb/s peak
As I mentioned above, it was for a short amount of time. My overall average for the pre-load period is around 145KBps, haha. That's even slower than the connection I had a decade ago.
Wots going down in CS?
And well, they did say that the date for the Vive sign-ups was somewhat of a loose one.

Nope. Try deauthorising and then reauthorising your PC and account.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It's really more of a turf war.
i just reauthorized because his library don't show up
not sure if he's supposed to deauthorizing first tho

All of Crucial's recent offerings have knocked it out the park and have a drive for every budget. Shame the MX100's didn't come in greater sizes than 512GB or I'd have bough quite a few more.

we should make a Neogaf CSGO team and show them who's boss :3
I bought the MacGameStore bundle for Night of the Rabbit and Among the Sleep, which had been on my wishlist for a while. Kept Harvey's New Eyes upon seeing some praise for it, but the rest I don't see myself getting around to playing, so have at it:

Beat Pillars of Eternity. All in all I enjoyed my time with it, but I can't see myself jumping on a sequel unless some things were changed. For me difficulty and Companion Path finding are the big ones. While I was on easy I still didn't feel like it was as easy as it should be. There was more than a few big difficulty jumps that ruined the experience. Companion path finding was very annoying in areas with little room such as dungeons. people getting stuck behind each other, not attacking, or running back and forth was aggravating. Going to wait for the Divinity 2.0 patch before I right Crpgs completely, but I just don't see the genre being for me unless it's like Dragon Age Origins. Which is the mix of new and old I need.
It's over. After four days and some change it's finally over.
Took me 4 hours.
Could be shorter though since we have a shitload of devices at home using Internet.
