Weirdly enough Everybody's Golf is the one game that makes me miss my PS4. There seems to be nothing comparable on PC. Maybe Nintendo can hurry up and give me a Mario Golf.

that 40k Inquisitor Martyr game has been consistantly in the top sellers, good reviews too. Exciting, kinda need that game to be good in the end tbh.

I hope it will be. All the gameplay I have seen looked very dull.

Edit: Just now saw that RPS has not been kind to it https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/20...0-inquisitor-martyr-is-as-clunky-as-its-name/

Because they're shameful.

Plus, if you want to ogle boobs, it's easy to find them in a free and legal manner, assuming you're in most western countries.

a) Kinkshaming is NOT okay
Unless we're talking about foot fetish

b) Paying for tiddy will result in a more moderate, healthy recreational behavior than diving into the free ocean of booty that is xhamster

c) Paying for anime tiddy is ethic porn consumption. No people are directly or indirectly pressured into selling their bodies.

Anime tiddy is the future.

Nier is 35% off. Still unsure if I should bite considering the lackluster PC port.

I had the same reservations, but ultimately decided to give it a try during summer sale - i installed a community fix before playing, and had zero issues as a result, completed the game 100%. I agree that having to rely on fan fixes should not be the only option, but i'll take what i can get, especially since i've been fiddling with PC games my whole life and i'm so used to it by now that it doesn't bother me in the slightest. The game itself is definitely worth the trouble. It is also worth mentioning that my setup is Intel CPU and NVIdia GPU - and i hear that Nier has more issues if you are using AMD stuff.

Did you play it with M+KB or used a controller?

humble "I'm probably on some kind of watchlist after buying it" bundle

I guess I should look at what I'm actually missing from it to determine if I want to buy it.

I used a controller. Haven't even tried KB+M, since it was already known by that point that KB+M controls aren't ideal in Nier. I usually do some research on games i'm about to play to see if there are any issues that can be fixed with external solutions, if there are any mods that can be installed right away to enhance the experience and what control type is recommended.

It´s a shame SE didnt even bother to fix the simple fullscreen issue. Although in the case of FAR, I´d say in any case, everyone should install it, at least for Durante´s bloom improvements and AO.

I'll let you know that foot fetish is good and wholesome.

I kind of want to play NIER for the DLC, but I vowed not to touch the game until a proper patch is released. The Kaldaien patch is great, but the SKIM64 utility causes some of my other games to not boot and I just don't want to deal with it.

It's kind of ridiculously how they were talking about patching the game around the first or second week of release, yet the only thing that has ever been done has come from NVIDIA's side of the house.

Alright im super triggered.

how do I have steam just automatically download updates as soon as they are available instead of having them "initiate" at 11am but showing that the download will start at 11pm.

thought this damn siege update would be ready when I got back from work. -_-

What kind of microphone is good to have for live streaming? Is this Blue Microphones Yeti microphone recommended?
Click to expand...

I have one for Twitch and podcasting and it's great. I had a Snowball for ages and the Yeti is a major step-up. You definitely want a pop filter though, you can get one that fits over it like a sock. They help with plosive sounds, your b sounds like buh, that kind of thing.

This is the one I have.

If you have room, a boom arm is a good investment as well, will help with the mic not picking up background noise, fan vibrations, keyboard taps and such. Also makes it more adjustable, although the included stand is pretty good and has some nice weight to it.

You only need the Pro if you are buying a mixer, or see yourself getting a mixer at some point since the major feature is that it has aux ports and such.

I haven't looked but I imagine most indie multiplayer games are in a very similar situation.

Have you heard of our lord and saviour, Playerunknown's Battlegrounds?
it's an indie, early access, multiplayer game. Supposedly quite popular, no GOTY material though, that's to be sure

You can't afaik. I think Steam has always scheduled the updates, it just it didn't always tell you about the scheduling. You can always manually initiate a scheduled update, but that obviously doesn't help if you are at work or something.
