I had zero issues with Dark Souls on W8 using DSfix and with GFWL when i put 50 something hours into the game last year.
At least its not early access.
Yeah, I just started DS/w DSFIX up and it works perfectly fine. Didn't have any issues or anything. I've also used games that still use GFWL without issue (Fallout 3, MK Arcade Kollection).

Guilds are cross faction, while grouping for quests and other stuff is same faction iirc.
I have this game on Steam and XB1. It's really weird playing it on XB1, since everything is voice chat.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Oh apparently YESO doesn't use steam money.
...
I'll buy it while it's on sale then. I still got 20+ hours right?

In what industry?
Dark Souls works okay on Windows 10.
That is, unless you want to use DualShock 3/4 to play it. If so, enjoy badly mapped face buttons/triggers, constantly rotating camera and double input when using D-Pad.
These posts make me hungry, I have no idea how I will be able to play this game.

Depends on the structure or organization of the QA department. There are a lot of different testing methods. If you are QAing something that is front end like a UI or a web page then there is a lot of "spot/feel" reporting back to the developer (or the designer that designed it if its not a coding issue).

Does anyone know anything about Dishonored Definitive edition? I'm *this* close to double dipping for the original GOTY version on GMG, but I'm thinking there at least might be some better textures in the new version, but I don't know if it'll be a new sub or replace the old GOTY version as an upgrade.

How is the branching in Way of the Samurai 4? Are you locked to just supporting either the white invaders or Shogunate or are there more neutral options?
And of course the Brigmore Witches isn't on sale on its own via GMG

If it's anything like the previous games there will be tons of different paths through the main story.
IIRC there were like 22 different permutations of the main story in WOTS3

Is the definitive edition even being released on PC?
So, a couple of unrelated things:
Anyone know of a setting that could have changed with the Windows 10 update that would cause my PC to boot slowly all of a sudden? If I press power it just sits there for a few minutes with no signal to the monitor, then I get the beep and it boots up as fast as it used to from that point.
Also, can anyone recommend a good 3rd person stealth game that I haven't played? I've played all the Splinter Cells and Styx. I have Velvet Assassin sitting there but it doesn't have the best reputation. Specifically 3rd person because I'm just in the mood for it (and
I've played some of the Thiefs, Deus Ex, Dishonored, Mark of the Ninja, etc.)

not that they've mentioned....seems to be console only
Mewgenics is on hold till Super Meat Boy Forever gets released. Super Meat Boy Forever is apparently a lot more than just a "endless runner" game
My food porn runs great on CSD.
Hey they're always useful for lunging the assembled PC about. Garage is full of boxes for all my PC crap over the years.
Nothing wrong with the white style you themeist!
Well after tearing the manky carpet and underlay up, dragging my actual desk up the stairs was the last thing on my mind. But hey it's functional for now. Although last time I did the same trick for a makeshift desk the box collapsed and the monitor ended up on the floor... in various pieces.
Ha! As much as a cylinder is the perfect shape for distributing weight evenly if I so much as but any of my weight on them I imagine they'd burst into pieces.
Well I've had my fair share of bugs, most comical more than frustrating. Getting catapulted 200 feet in the air when dismounting Roche was a particular highlight. Surprisingly when Geralt came crashing back down to Novigrad he landed on his feet and without a scratch. Must have been that Cat Potion I drank
There's also r/shittybattlestations.
Hahaha. Perfect.
I'll remember that next time someone calls me stupid.
Well going by some of the product pages for it at various retailers it has all the released DLC like the GOTY Edition does and 'Enhanced Graphics' what ever that vapid description means. I'd wager that it's a resolution and framerate bump and being a UE3 game will suffer a bit on the newer consoles due to sequential CPU usage and more than likely PS4 will have aniso filtering missing. Really I doubt there's too much regards to texture work that could be improved that would be a big visual difference due to the artstyle (very watercolour-esqe) and the slight blur I'm assuming one of the post effects gave to the overall image.
Unless you're desperate to play it now might be worth waiting until it's out and in peeps hands to get a better overview of what it's like as the PC version goes on sale regularly.
When Bethesda tweeted it, they said PS4 and One, no mention of PC. All sites that are selling preorders don't have a PC version, either. I feel inclined to say no, simply because the original beats out the first console version as is.

Well, I think I'm about halfway/a little bit over halfway done with Wolfenstein: The Old Blood.
It...kinda sucks. I really liked The New Order (enough to play it twice to get each side of the story), but something about The Old Blood just doesn't "feel" right. Maybe it's the heavy emphasis on stealth, or the kind of lacking level design, but it just feels like a bunch of cut content that was cut for a good reason.
I will say, though, that the
was pretty cool.

Yeah, now that I'm looking at it some more, that seems the case. Thanks!

I feel exactly the opposite of what you describe here.
The Old Blood is so much better than The New Order.

it's the same dev, just that they're no longer owned by Sony.
other than that, i dunno
Graphics of Sleeping Dogs are really weird. In some areas, the game looks great (e.g. in the street at night with the neon lights), but other areas are very ugly, like when you get to the edge of town, the less populated areas.
Then there's the faces... Could it be that only selected characters/scenes got an update with that texture pack? In some cutscenes it's like there are characters with 'updated' faces, while others look like crap. For instance Winston's mother can look detailed in one scene, then rough in another. I don't know, might be looking too much into it, but the details and overall visuals are very uneven.

It took me a couple of days (maybe 4 or so?). This was during the height of the Summer sale.

if you mean how long after they say the refund is actually successful...was about 3 days for me I believe
Thank you kindly. Then I have hope it'll be available before the sale price ends on WOTS4.

You mean "there's too much 'shoot all these dudes in these cramped quarters' and not enough stealth"
Low res faces? Pfft! Who cares when you can do this to randoms on the street.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Yes, I believe this was changed a few days ago.
Looks and sounds surprisingly great, to be quite honest.
Which, again, is surprising since I didn't like Sniper 1 nor 2 very much.
My Steam-hosted avatar is actually a few KB larger than the file I uploaded. It's about damn time Valve used some of its bajillion dollars to allow higher-quality avatars.
Looks like twitch is finally jumping to HTML5, sort of.
Not going to make a difference I'd imagine as Steam still saves shitty compressed jpg's which get uploaded. Embrace the flickr!
