Those ABZU system requirements have me a little worried, a 290X for recommended GPU U wot m8?
time for a new gpu!
Someone in the review thread/OT said he manages 45-60fps on a relatively ancient Intel CPU and a 7970, so I'd guess the recommended requirements assume 1080p60 as the goal.
Edit:
Got the pc-version.
It's a solid port with Unreal Engine 4. There are not many graphic options (render res, fish, shadows, reflections, vsync) and you can't change controll layouts. It is playable with mouse and keyboard, but like the steam page i would say: play it with controller. The game got an native support for the Dualshock 4.
Performance wise it's okay - nothing special. By some big, big fish swarms i got some heavy fps drops, but most of the time Abzû was between 45 and 60 FPS. My rig is also not the best on the market anymore
i5 760@2,80 GHz
Radeon HD 7970 OC 3GB
8 GB Ram
Its after all just a solid port in my opinion but i guess thats better than maybe Arkham Knight.

Humble Another Week with no Bundle
I don't see the problem with Abzu's lenght. I mean, it's no different from plenty of other titles like Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Amnesia a machine for pigs etc, 2 hours game sold for 20€ more or less.
If you are ok with the price, go for it, if not, just wait for a 75% off (like I'll do).
I mean, it's not the first 2 hours game sold for 20€...
Bethesda games bundled? Lol. Probably a Quakecon sale on Steam...

45 minutes 'til Windows 10 Anniversary. Awyiss, love Windows updates.
Ethan and Amnesia are closer to 4hrs and Carter had an open world to explore. ABZU's main problem besides the length seems to be the lack of freedom.

Dunno, I completed Vanishing in 2 hours, it's not really open world since there's only one way.

Yeah I wouldn't buy those games at full price either, I need like ~£7 before touching a game that short

There is thing called replay abilityan extra hour...
I got it on ps4 and am enjoying just taking my time playing it
I'm mostly playing Phantom Brave on my 1080. At 5k resolution it uses <15% of the GPU.
(At least I'm also using it for VR, where I'd like even more GPU power
)I wonder if Lionsgate UK adding Brooklyn to Netflix UK's catalogue on the 8th is a sign that a Steam release isn't far off. I don't think any of the Lionsgate films released on Steam thus far are UK-exclusive, however many of them are available in the UK in addition to the US, plus the film had its fair share of Oscar nods earlier in the year, which makes it a strong candidate for Lionsgate's first international (non-US) region-specific release.
There's been a QuakeCon bundle every year since 2010 (though the 2014 one didn't contain any Quake games), so odds are good. The better question is if Bethesda will offer it as a discount-conferring bundle rather than just a regular, all-or-nothing package.

Gonna go see it anyway because T Mobile is giving free tickets through their app today. Also, can't wait for that Quakecon sale, time to play Quake. I haven't played since being scared by Quake 2 as a wee babby on PSX.

There is no single great movie with a DC license since Nolan's Batman. Seeing how everything from Man of Steel on sucked major balls, I'm not sure why anyone would base excitement.

Lol spent the past hour hunting having to go out to buy fuses after my guitar amp bust a valve. Finally get to test the the GTX 1060 now.
Steam must know the expectations of people buying movies digitally at this point. Until they make the films somewhat portable / transferable to other devices and have decent prices, few are going to go for it.
Having said that, I think American Psycho was on sale for £2 a few days ago. If the films were actually as above, I would have bought it for the hell of it.

WB got them on a leash. Shoutouts to Shadows of Mordor.
edit: Gamespot: Suicide Squad is the movie the DC Cinematic Universe needs right now.

DC should just stop fucking around and release Mask of the Phantasm on BD.

I've lost my faith in Valve to actually keep up with other services. They're still working on a managerial model that is a decade old.
Brother, really.I own... neither.

Not the latter, we may get a Quakecon Humble bundle though.

I know! I'm getting a RX 480 soon, can't wait for it.
That's reassuring, my current specs are close to that.
I can't believe I was hyped again, even after all the shit they've done. I still bought a ticket, I got it for half-price but still, could have gotten ABZU instead.

How am I supposed to get a +1 for my backlog though?
I did not know we had that kind of stuff on Steam.
