Still pretty far away, I'd like some trailers from CDPR.

I would probably actually buy that one, seeing as I never played the original version. Out of all the FFs I haven't played it's probably the one I'm most interested in.
And yeah was wondering about the crazy downloads. Seems..harmless?

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Bully crashed on me thrice and I haven't left the menu :/
New game
Reminds me of Ragnarok Battle Offline.
I have the PS2 original and spent around 100 hours on the game.
Loved every second of it and I'm planning to replay IZJS soonish (unless, of course, we're getting Steam edition).
Ahahaha, PS4 Remote play has 100ms of lag on PC, terrible macro blocking and is limited to 720p.
Good job, Sony.

There was a bug that resulted in the contents of some _CommonRedist folders being wiped.
So Steam steamcleaned their servers for space too?
For me the port is good enough. Yeah, there's a great difference between the model of characters (updated) and the background, but I like it because it seems very "cartoonish".
FMV have a good quality too, the only bad thing, for me, is the fact my XBox One controller doesn't work when I boot the game. I need to start the title with the controller unplugged, load a save, plug the controller, alt+tab to the desktop and turn in-game again, after this the controller works well, otherwise it's not recognized.
So they deleted it yesterday on accident and now they're downloading it again? Yesterday tons of my games seemed to update but not actually downloading anything, but today the exact same games are downloading rather huge files (~100/150MB files a piece).
Yeah.
Hm, weird bug.

It will be on someone's desk this morning.
Gabe will go straight from the bladeworking shop to Valve HQ. Closing his door with a strange quiet. Passing the closest bathrooms to route by this person. Sighing dramatically. Glint of a fixed blade's crossguard.
Ahh. So, no reported losses? Letting the update refill those folders should do the trick?
The news article is misleading. Bugbear has not filed for bankruptcy, someone who is owed money by Bugbear has requested bankruptcy for Bugbear. It doesn't make the situation much better but it is a significant difference, for now.
Personally I have been a fan of Bugbear ever since Rally Trophy so seeing them fumble so badly in the last 3+ years is disheartening. Everything looked great around two years ago when Wreckfest became a small success in early access but that was over two years ago, the game is still in early access and doesn't look like it's going to be a finished product anytime soon (ignoring possible bankruptcy). Something has gone wrong within Bugbear, either they have been prioritizing other work over Wreckfest (but surely that other work would sustain them?) or.. well, I don't really have an alternative. Wreckfest is their main product and it's not developing at a reasonable rate. Someone somewhere messed up.
Well, that depends on what you consider losses. I've tested some of my updated games and all save files work. But in Arkham Knight the graphics settings were reverted to default (30fps lock on Normal), so I had to change that.
But nothing major so far.
edit: Hmm, Deus Ex HR doesn't seem to launch any more. Not sure if it's related to this bug, I'll do an integrity check.
Totally forgot Enhanced Steam did this. Happy 6 years to me.

Final Fantasy 9 is out? Cool.
I am convinced it was that became an FPS later.
I might do a couple more games. There is something there that could be fun but, man.
I am convinced it was that became an FPS later.
After 3 games I was ready to uninstall yet I gave it another day and I played like 3 hours straight this morning. So yeah give it one more shot then give up, I'm not saying it's perfect or anything, I won't be buying it for example, not full price.
I have a question regarding D3DOverrider. The recent Division patch somehow increases the 60fps cap to 62 which results in some screen tearing, especially inside. I know I can pick VSync in the menu, but not using it nets me a little performance increase.
Anyway, I always thought D3DOverrider locks it at your refresh rate but not necessarily getting the downsides from VSync (input lag). However, using words like VSync and tripple buffering makes me wonder if it's even different than Divison's base VSync to begin with...

How old is your laptop? Mime has been on it's last legs for almost two years now. I just hope it can last some time until I'm finished with paying for my driver's license courses, because then I'll have some money to spare.

I don't see the game bombing, but it's not gonna be as big as Borderlands. Even though they are trying so hard to make it that.

Your computers might just be dirty and overheating. All you may need to do is open it up, clean it out and change your thermal paste.
D3DOverrider simply forces VSync on and off for games that implement VSync poorly, it doesn't help with input lag. For that you need Rivatuner, which you can download standalone or with MSI Afterburner.
Edit: Added download links.
Anybody claiming that the bug affected files stored outside of a game's redist folder is just a victim of coincidence. It didn't even delete the redist folders themselves, just the files therein.

Wow, the Skullgirls loyalty discount still isn't working.
I'm not entirely sure, it's i3, so at least 5 years old? It's Dell Inspiron and they have onverheating problem, but it never was meant for gaming so I didn't paid much attention then. I bought Mitsubishi laptop, much better one later, but I gave it away for someone in need.
and my laptops usually don't live much longer past 4-5 years anyway, or PCs, or anything.
mine must have been born dirty, because it tended to overheat from a day one!
thanks for advice, anyway
what loyalty discount?

Never having played a Final Fantasy game, I do want to get started with 7,8,9. Each looks unique.
It's out.

Supposedly, you're entitled to a 50% loyalty discount on 2nd Encore if you own any of the DLC. In practice, it seems like only people who actually bought previous DLC are entitled, not those who bought the game early and thus got the DLC for free.

Nice. I'm mostly checking because my S/O has more than a month's worth of a full-time job into Stardew Valley, in addition to her actual full-time job, and I feared for the violence this world would see if that save was somehow affected.
I'd be bummed if I lost my progress in other games, but I grew up in a scenario where saving wasn't a guarantee, then required an obscenely small memory card segmented into blocks, some of which you illogically kept filled forever. "I'll go back and finish Chrono Cross!"

Not surprising....those are the best 3 outside of FF3 (6).

Yup, PSX Final Fantasy games are the best. You should play them all.

That's kind of BS. Especially for those of us who are Kickstartet backers.

Apparently, it's something on Valve's end.
typical, it is Darksiders II situation all over again, or almost any situation lately, buying games doesn't count, only dlcs or season passes do.
isn't that just an excuse?
not that I know, but it was used as an excuse before

FF2 (4) is the overlooked gem of the series.
Laser-sharp focused story, as opposed to the early game meandering of FF3, that explodes in such a wild, weird way toward its end.
I dare say it's better than FF3, despite that game's incredibly inventive "island" section and the plot details that introduces.
The uniqueness of 7,8,9 are what's best about them. They are so totally of their own world, but still have this unifying umbrella of being a "Final Fantasy." The mechanics wind up totally different, as well, and somehow still retain the same feel.
Back to my previous mention of Chrono Cross... I've never finished it. I played through Trigger so, so many times. I've gotten nearly all of the endings on SNES, and have definitely done all that I know of through emulator.
Put this game on Steam. Let me correct this injustice. Without my lingering Trigger fandom intruding, I think I can finally enjoy Cross for what it is: batshit time/place/dimension insanity.
