not with Gamebryo it wont
I mean... it won't. No matter how bad they make it look it will still run like crap on launch.

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.
So in exactly 1 week I'll be undertaking a 24 hour gaming marathon for charity, which I'll be streaming on Twitch. I've finally narrowed down a list of games I'll be playing - hopefully I'll be able to get to most of these during the stream:
I'm hoping to raise $1,000 for my local children's hospital and I've so far been able to raise $600! I'm giving away a cool Enhanced Steam supporter profile badge to everyone who donates and leaves a link to their Steam profile in the donation comments. I'm also raffling off over $1,000 worth of games courtesy of IsThereAnyDeal.com! So if you get a chance be sure and check it out!
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- Killer is Dead - Nightmare Edition
- Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure
- Sacred 3
- Rollers of the Realm
- Saints Row IV: Gat out of Hell
- The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
- D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die
- One Piece Pirate Warriors 3
- Grim Fandango Remastered
- The Marvellous Miss Take
- Grandia II Anniversary Edition
- Blues and Bullets
- Grim Legends 2: Song of the Dark Swan
- Rocket League
- Shower With Your Dad Simulator
- Final Fantasy Type-0 HD
- Her Story

The fallout thread is pretty ridiculous. I can feel the defensiveness since the first page.
^are you going to "beat" them? I mean, Rocket League is a multiplayer game.

I hope Todd Howard takes out VSync in F4, because I want to play a Bethesda game that runs smooth
I hope it has JIT-Vsync.
But I already know for a fact that it doesn't since it's a relatively new feature which very few engines has.
Oh yeah, that's definitely true. It also takes a reasonable overhead to do a proper, locked 30. But with something like FO4, there's very little excuse for it to not look better, other than either lazyness, incompetence or mismanagement.
And I mean, I could say for a fact that 60 FPS is simply better than 30, but noone in their right mind would despute that. 30 isn't outright awful though; but it damn well be done properly, you know? Case-in-point; Dragons Fucking Dogma. Anything sub-50 if it's not locked looks arse in motion for me, but if it's a locked 30, it's not too bad. Just gotta have that consistency. Which... DD never had. Not even for a minute. It's a shame, too. I kind of liked the game, but that's why I'm glad it's coming to PC, finally.
All hail the mighty mustard race!
I don't actually like mustard. I'm sorry.
And in the game?
People in the screenshot thread were bringing up the argument that gameplay supersedes graphics.
Now it's going to perform well.
Has anyone actually played Bethesda games?
VN fans rejoice! http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1132739&page=100000#footer
It does look like it'll have significantly better shooting than FO3, though. So that's always something. But significantly better than outright wank doesn't necessarily mean it'll be good, it just means it'll be less wanky.
And fuck me, the crosshair looks awful. Hope I can disable it alongside the majority of the awful HUD.

Maybe if they changed their engine we could expects a almost bug-free experience. Otherwise, you can't expect any else than the same kind of problems that have plagued their previous games.

Make sure you got that 60 FPS Fix applied for Killer is Dead
One Piece Musou 3 is gonna be PS4 ver. or PC?
How does it exactly work with Tomoyo After?
Since, you know, it pretty much starts with a graphic sex scene?

Remember to upgrade the drivers in device manager so you get wireless audio and rumble

Will do, hopefully it won't kill my performance too much! Also One Piece (and everything, actually) will be PC. I heard the game can be a bit broken so hopefully I don't have too many issues. If I do, I'll just move on to the next game during the stream.
The same thing happened last year while playing Cognition - it just kept crashing and I finally gave up.
Awesome, thanks man!

There is something to be said about a fun ass video game.
I'm not sure but there is an All-Ages Windows version, as well as Console ports and an Android version. Not sure how they handled it.

This is code for, you gotta go research for us. Or else you lose the title of SteamGAF VN expert.

Oh lawd at the Fallout 4 screenshot thread.
It's a funny game in a regard that everything I see about it makes me pretty much hate it, but still I can't wait to play it (have preorders in and all that because I am a dumbass)

And then Larian will be contracted to make New Vegas 2 and be deprived of bonuses for only reaching 89% positive reviews on Steam.
I think the biggest issue at launch was poor performance due to some issue with the game not using multi-threading. It was fan fixed pretty quickly.
It was pretty buggy, but nothing that ever stopped me from being able to play it. Normally a quick reload of a save game fixed most things I ran into, as I recall.

Cognition never crashed for me, but hope OP Musou 3 runs fine for you. It's a rather long game with later levels being a tad too long, but play on Normal or Easy to blast through it quickly.
If you just use Luffy and strengthen him as you progress you should be able to beat it faster.
Have a thread be made for it over at GD, I'm sure more GAFfers would take interest in this

The whole executable was built without any optimization flags

Remember guys, wait for the GOTY
Yeah, that was it. Couldn't remember for sure the exact thing, thank you.
Performance was piss poor on PC at launch due to that.
Too late.

Thanks for the tip! The past few years I've done these live-streams, I've tried to pick games I hadn't played yet so that every few hours I start something new so it's kind of keeping things fresh. But I also treat it like an "all you can eat buffet" of Steam gaming, and every time I start a new game it's like doing a little "let's play" video. Some short games I play during Extra Life I end up beating during the stream, but others I separate out into either "finish later" or "immediately delete and never revisit".
The hardest part usually is a) staying awake for 24 hours, b) sitting mostly still for 24 hours, and c) not losing my voice after 24 hours.
But Styx 2 is next year.

Personally, I don't consider that an "argument"...
Again, people are not buying and playing Fallout 4 because they want eye candy. :lol
if it gets a new vegas 2 in the making, i'll be happy with all of that
Rainbow Six: New Vegas 2.

I still cannot believe that actually was a thing.
I don't know if this actually works as I've never actually tried it, but I have a cousin who sings in a band and he used to tell me that he'd drink ginger tea with honey after every gig to help soothe his vocal chords.
Great game. Holding left trigger for cover was strangely satisfying and I wish it caught on.

just as long as it's written by Chris Avellone I don't give a fyuuuuuuuck
and brings back Ed-E
and Raul
Also amusing is v1.00 of the actual executable is entirely DRM-free; only the launcher was tethered to the Steam client.
A mate and I are playing through the Vegas games at the moment. The original is dated to the point that it feels like a fan-made UDK game.

Oof staying awake for ana ctual 24 hours is not a good idea IMO, but good luck. Honestly 1-ish hour Break every few hours or after beating a game is good so you can freshen up/revitalize yourself, I dont' think it HAS to be an exact 24 hours, but that's just me :3
i don't mind if bethesda makes a billion fallouts and they're all shit
if it leads to one good one made by a real rpg developer i'm happy
and if it doesn't, then i'm not happy, but i don't really care either, cos i already got three good fallouts to play
gross
Yeah same. Haha I'm only just starting New Vegas now

That's what I was getting at. The entire Bethesda Team including writers. No Chris.
