Most still using reasons from the 90s/early 2000s heh.
Only reason why I am in that thread. Nostalgia.
I'm really sad about it not being DX9. All the cool AA and other visual improvements you can inject on Sophie make it looks amazing. Firis both doesn't run well, and doesn't have the possibility for that extensive visual upgrade either.

looking a bit... eh?
I was able to throw some stuff at it, but it would hurt performance for people without beast GPUs.
Touched the game up some. There is still AA issues and the game is no where near as optimized as Sophie. Also... The lower left menu that pops up with the button commands reduces my framerate by about 15 when it shows up. If you're not running about 60 you won't see it. So not a big issue.

Very nice, any guide on what you did? Hoping they fix up the performance like they did with Sophie to do that.
Also, seems it's not going to be quite playable on the GPD Win, which is a shame

2017 should be the year of Miegakure.
Gamepad is supported. Except the leaderboard complaint, using a gamepad solves most issues.
Incredible difference for the items on the table (and the furniture itself).

Is something up with Steam? I can sign in to the store but if I go my activity or any community pages it acts like I'm not signed in.

So, someone posted this on /v/ claiming it's Cyberpunk.
Anyone knows what it is? I figure it's way too early for Cyberpunk but it is also rough looking.
Edit: Nevermind, it's just an UE4 tech demo some dude made. Not bad.

Yea I just like to play whatever has good games. Switch is gonna have Mario and Monster Hunter so yay more shit to buy. I just hope they get the hardware issues sorted by the time it has a worthwhile software lineup.

Watch Dogs 3
Just don't play the story mode. I wish that the cutscenes could be skipped. And it sucks that it's in story mode you can unlock new content (at least what I know)
Dunno, I'm playing that and honestly I'm having fun. I never watched the anime, so I know nothing about characters and the plot itself, but I'm liking it. The only awful thing is they literally throw you minutes and minutes of cutscenes after every fight, but at least I can understand the story. With the One Piece game, that was impossible.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
Why is Hotline Miami 2 so much less fun than the first one?
I don't think I ever actually rage quit while playing the first one but I've done it twice so far with the 2nd. There was a point early on where I was thinking 'If this was a random no-name bundle fodder game, I'd have retired it by now.'
I'd tentatively chalk it up to the emphasis on gunplay and how often you get shot dead from the extreme edge of vision as opposed to the first ones emphasis on melee and thrown weapons. I switched the look key to spacebar because I was holding it down so much as shift my pinky finger was getting tired. I'd also say the levels being bigger, longer, and having more floors makes them inherently more frustrating to get through--in the first one you'd often get killed by the last enemy on a stage and have to do it over again and again, but it didn't feel nearly as frustrating a waste of time as it does here because the better you got the faster you could do a floor. You could risk your life for clearing a room quickly and not be too put out if it didn't work the first few times, and it'd be satisfying when it did.
In HM2 it just generally feels like you have a lot less variety of options in how you'll tackle a floor, and because guns are so immediately deadly you spend a lot of time kiting enemies into doorways. In the same vein, I can't say I'm fond of so many levels picking your character for you and having weapons you can't drop. The level design doesn't really feel like it keeps pace with that design decision. Oh, and then there's the ambiguity about what counts as a wall, a table you can shoot over, and stuff that's just a starkly different colored floor for some reason.
Always weird to play a sequel that feels like it could have been the first in the series and the actual first game was the refined successor.

It's definitely the focus on gunplay. The first was just this frenetic melee blitz that had occasional guns in the mix, whereas the second plays more like an overhead Contra with enemies that also see and shoot you off screen. I just found myself in so many cases where the most effective method of approach was just cheesing AI behaviour by baiting them into corners or doors and very much inching my way through areas while using the look ahead controls to plot the enemy placements. In the first game, I never once used look ahead.
Be she could gift me nier as I can't buy it here locally >.>
I agree that the cutscenes are way too long, I wish those could be skipable since I have read through the entire manga. I would play through the story mode if it weren't for the long cutscenes
She can send you USD$60 via PayPal that you can forward to someone who can buy you a gift copy.
Yep, it's really sad. I dropped that game pretty quickly and boot up the first game when I am in the mood for Hotline.
What about playing it while being lit? Maybe they made the game with that in mind.

I'm not sure that will happen, there is still no word from KT of any sort as far as I know.
Have you reached outside? I have a weird texture glitch there, not sure how to fix that and it seems nobody else is having it. It's a pity that so few people play Firis, it's much harder to find solutions and solve problems.

oh, OK then, why no steam logo in that trailer I wonder
Probably because it'll be sold elsewhere as a non-Steam game. In other words, on GOG and Humble.

Everyone should play this game at least once, it's that good.
Looks very good. Hope it releases this year.

I never understood why people can't be more accepting. I can understand not having the funds to own all consoles and a good PC. But damn, I dunno why people still hold onto this school yard concept that it has to be one and that's it.
I personally could never fully give up console gaming. Whether it be from portable systems or console exclusives. But PC as a whole is a very great platform that offers something for everyone, and so long as you aren't trying to be Ultra High Super Settings is pretty budget friendly.
I do think a big issue is the stigma that PC has to be at a desk, or that everything has to be played with mouse and keyboard. Which is just sad that it hasn't gotten past that yet.
