Support NeoGAF

[Jawmuncher]

That new streaming stuff is crazy. People streaming anime shows via VLC player lol. The quality for some of the stuff I watched was very damn good as well.

Surprised Valve was able to stealth drop such a big community feature. No one saw this coming at all. I wonder what other big stuff they can stealth drop.

Weird how it works on the Friends list though.
Clicked on everyone's profile to watch that is online right now and nothing.
Don't put the button there steam if they aren't opted for it.

Spoiler

Its also on one of the most infamous episodes

 

[Parsnip]

This streaming thing is pretty unexpected.

Does anyone know if it uses hardware encoding like nvenc? In-home streaming has that support, I would imagine this has as well, but I don't see any settings for it yet.

It needs the steam overlay?
Because it's not letting me watch anything.

Maybe. Older Rockstar games are so hacked together at this point to get them running.

I'd imagine this will go live fairly quickly, so developing that UI elements would be a waste.

So I just found out that if you're idling using Idle Master/SAM and someone starts watching your broadcast, even though they can't see the game (since it's not actually running), they can hear any and all sounds from Windows. My friend just connected and was able to hear the music I was listening to, unbeknownst to me.

Hopefully someone doesn't watch when at night.
Who knows what they might hear.

Hahah, probably best to set it to invite only then.

..huh, that's interesting. if possible, that should be added to the OP and the readme on idle master.

 

[dani_dc]

As I said when they were getting rid of Dead Pool it got quite the discount.
So if they are planning as much for Korra, then I would assume they would do the same for a last ditch effort to maximize sales. I see it hitting at least 50% off activisons favorite discount.

I like your way of thinking.
Now to decide until thursday.

Except the whole VC2 > VC but what can you do.

Wow. That is creepy.
Never gonna activate broadcasting.

 

[FiveElementNinja]

Likewise, if you are playing music while playing a game, people will hear it. So keep that in mind if you're going to stream.

The choice is easy.

[Shadownet]

Deadpool is gone everywhere, not just PC right? So Korra will probably get the axe as well on all other systems?

Well I'm sure IF Korra is going to be gone, It won't be any time this year. At least not before Winter Sale.

I'm not sure about that. It doesn't say so anywhere else, but in the Jews section it says something about having limited concurrent users as they scale the service up for the wider audience. I'm not entirely sure how quickly something like that can be done

I'd bet that it will have a discount on winter sale and then it will be quickly pulled of steam shortly afer.

January 1st is the end of Acti's fiscal year and when they also tend to end licences.

I really hope red faction guerilla: steam edition gets a lot of buyers. That's an awesome move, and I loved the multiplayer in that game back on console.

Mostly because of how responsive the aiming was.

Anyone else pick it up? only 3 bucks right now.

These make sense.

Beating Alien Isolation is actually a pretty easy 100%.
Didn't even try and I got 40/50 and the rest was just collecting stuff and some minor things I could have used on a save.

Long live the queen is easy since it's a VN

Murdered Soul Suspect if you use a guide for the collectibles

Walking Dead Season 2 is a freebie

As well as The Wolf Among Us as long as you get the codex entries

Those were the only that popped out at me.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Your Telltale games, especially TWDs2 call out "play us".
TWAU is a little more involved than just completing it because you have to do certain things to unlock all journal entries, but it's not really hard, per se.

Mutant Blobs Attack is an awesome platformer that wasn't super difficult to get all achievements/trophies in.

Renegade Ops wasn't super hard to do either.

The Penny Arcade RPGs were pretty easy to 100%.

Murdered Soul Suspect is a pretty easy 100% (it's pretty much all story and all collectibles; few, if any, are missable.)

Jazzpunk wasn't hard, especially if you don't mind checking a guide for some of the more obtuse ones.

I thought you were bullshitting. Guess not.

Thanks guys!

WoW got the weekly maintenance, so I'm free to do something else for some hours.
Leviathan devs gave me my Steam key for the game, so I'm thinking I'll go and re-play the first episodes and maybe progress a bit on the episodes I didn't play.

The games added to the Humble Sega bundle felt somewhat underwhelming ('cause I already have them).

 

[Turfster]

I never bullshit, every word out of my mouth is gospel!

I'm not sure I'd be using the term "having a good time with Sasha gray" in a public social network.

Why not? She is a cool lady.

Jawmuncher, you'll find this super weird.

I have what's left of memories of a dream of Dino Crisis being announced and you freaking out to the point your avatar materialized in front of me and you started jumping.

True story.

Looks like i'm doing my job here on GAF.

 

[Speevy]

Haven't seen you in here for a while.

Yeah, I've been busy. I've caught up on some games lately like Dragon Age Inquisition. Hopefully I can do a few giveaways during the holiday sale.

Damn red faction takes so long to idle. Already two hours and only one drop -_-
Think I'll abort and sleep.

Card prices seem to be down, guess everyone was offloading quickly for the sale.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

I see Sonic Generations and Viking: Battle for Asgard got added to the Humble Bundle. Are they any good?
