SR4 felt like a Prototype 2 mod for SR3. The skills don't feel anywhere as good as they do in P2.

The inspiration was probably more Crackdown.

Also Prototype 1 > 2. P2 was more polished but I felt they simplified it a bit too much.

Prototype 2 also had an annoying problem where it wanted to appeal to people who thought swearing was the best way to tell a story. Had ot play it on mute because of how tiresome and annoying it got.

Both 1 and 2 are great though, with 1 I think edging out just because I had more fun running and jumping off it's buildings, and I could better pretend it was a Spider-Man's Venom: The Game

It is unchecked, I have told it not to support Dualshock 4 or any other controllers.

It's 100% a Steam problem. Anything from GOG or any other clients works completely fine with DS4Windows. Basically, I can play via Bluetooth, run low on battery, plug it into my case, charge it, and the unplug it seamlessly. Essentially just like you can do on a PS4.

Steam's native controller "support" just hijacks it as a generic xinput device and then I get doubled inputs and other weird stuff like.... gyro camera (!?) on Dark Souls III. Then when I unplug it, it's no longer recognized by Bluetooth and has to be uninstalled / reinstalled.

Does anyone have a similar problem, or a solution?

Odd I don't have this issue and I use multiple controllers at the same time to play CoOp games and whatnot.

Guess have steam closed when you want to? Or you trying to play a game on steam?

Lots of RPGs to go through this month, something has to wait. Ys7 can wait, getting Ys8 and I haven't touched the Divinity OS2 beta.

Love the Battlechasers beta so far, the game just looks great.

Well, damn. I totally forgot about Battlechasers in early October. I wonder if I can finish YSVIII and/or DOS2 in September. There's also Elex in mid October, I kinda look forward to it despite the jank.

So, that Sakura bundle...

Tempted by the $10 tier, but Steam reviews are mostly focused on "Anime bewbs!", so I'll ask here:

Are the games worth it to play, or are they just soft-porn, and money is better spent either on better games, or better porn?

It seems that the thread on the main gaming forum has several more serious reviews.

Has it been mentioned in this thread yet that the NBA Flag pack for Rocket League is going to be removed from the store near the end of the month?

Started TW3 New Game + because of that anniversary video (I doubt I'm going to finish this playthrough). I almost forgot how beautiful the game looked on PC, all it needs is texture mod, and perhaps some ini tweaks for draw distance and lighting to continue to compete with newest games for the rest of this generation.

Prototype 2's main character is one of my all-time favorites. I loved him. I thought the game was much better in terms of execution than the first- I did back-to-back runs through the game while I barely managed to finish the first.

This is kind of a shot in the dark because I only kind of half remember this, but anyway...

Didn't Steam change something about giving keys away for developers? I thought there was something new about being able to give keys directly to an account instead of just handing out keys to fight key re-sellers.

A little OT, but any help / info is appreciated.
Click to expand...

Sort of. It's an upcoming change and limited to the curator system: developers will be able to register a game directly to the account of a curator rather than having to doll out retail keys that may just end up being resold. I'd guess the stuff Valve's talked about that's yet to materialise will be part of another Discovery Update, which itself will probably align with the release or at least the beta of the new client.

They streamlined the controls in P2, but in the process also removed some of the more subtle finesse of the controls in the first game, like timing the dash right as you land for a speed boost, or dashing around the sides of a building.

They also toned down the difficulty (admittedly the first game was pretty challenging) but as a result Prototype 2 was braindead easy and you could just brute force your way through everything.

There are texture mods but unfortunately the color of the new textures are different with the tone of the rest of the world. Especially everything that is made of wood.

Like this.

sadly most texture mods are like that

i spent a ton of time trying to get ppl not to use texture mods in new vegas lol

it's a lot of work to retexture everything but modders use too many shortcuts like those and i just want the wood in the game to look like the devs meant it

But that's only with Enhanced Steam, right?
Click to expand...

The registering a key thing I linked? Nah. Anyone with a steam account can do it online through steams website now
The other thing uh... with the drop down menu uh maybe?

Unless you guys mean the copy and paste and activate keys then yeah that's a Enhanced steam thing

Yeah I meant the drop down, cause I believe the link can't be found on the website and you can only access it directly (without ES).

Hey SteamGAF, I'm about to purchase a Destiny 2 PC code from the BST thread. Unfortunately I don't have a GTX 1080 or 1080TI. Does anyone have one that could help me out a bit?

I would just give you the code and my Nvidia account and you redeem it for me. It's important that you have not redeem a copy of Destiny 2 on that 1080/1080TI yet since they're restricting it to one per GPU. I'll give you a little something for your trouble. Thanks.

PM me if you can help.

.
How do I see what I have won in the past? How do I see what I have given away in the past? How do I know what I have unclaimed right now in ModBot? I won a game and didn't receive the PM or lost the PM with the key. How do I fix this?

- Send a PM to ModBot with the subject line my loot and any body text. You will get a response with a full accounting of everything you've sent to or received from ModBot.
