Be as it may, this doesn't invalidate user reviews as a whole. I know that's not what you are saying, but it makes me remember how this works in the wider gaming industry discourse. I'm a bit tired of the one bad actor out of hundreds of thousands of reviews suddenly being used to make them sound undesirable.
It feels more like an excuse to remove the ability for customers to signal others when something isn't right with the product - or just indicate its general strengths and weaknesses - than anything else. Incidentally, server issues are part of those, so yeah.

yes volvo, please take away all of Frost's games and give them to me
no need to rush ... take your time
If the devs of Fall Guys don't make particular mistakes, I see it becoming the next "Rocket League" in terms of traction and players. Considering also that rocket league will leave steam...
Night School Studio (Oxenfree, Afterparty) is seemingly exclusive to Apple Arcade.
So in other words I will never play it unless it's timed.

I'm just noticing that the Fall Guys devs made the remake for Hatoful Boyfriend... then got the artist behind Hatoful and made Murder by Numbers... pretty cool.
btw, and i'm just putting it out there, but i'd play a fall pigeons game.
Get your money, but whew, kill all your Steam momentum in the process

It's probably timed. I think Apple wants more Grindstone, and less stuff like this. I wouldn't be surprised if this hit PC 6-12 months later (...I didn't say Steam.)

you sure yoiu want all his anime games?

I think some people also just guffaw at the idea that 'layman' opinion is featured so prominently on a store page. Big pearl clutching and gatekeeping energy, to me anyway. I've said it again and again when user reviews come up, but that stuff is the most important thing on the store page to me. I like reading a critic's review, but that's also just one person's or a group of people's take, not the objective end-all-be-all opinion on a game. Even if players only contribute a few poorly phrased sentences about their impressions of a game, that becomes purchase-relevant input once you synthesize it together with what a large number of other people -- critics and non-critics -- felt about a game. The people that dislike user reviews and are vocal about it tend to zone in on micro issues like joke reviews, politicization, disingenuous reviews, technical reviews, overly simplistic reviews, etc. but miss the macro view value of the system, perhaps because not every user review has something profound to say about a game, and so write it off entirely.

Someone broke the embargo it would seem :

"Indeed and as we could intuit, Horizon: Zero Dawn works like a charm on PC . We had no problems keeping the game in maximum graphic quality and always offering 60 frames per second in a tower whose main components are an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 and a Ryzen 7 2700X. Everything must be said, at a resolution of 1920p ."
I wonder how a 2070 will fare at 1440p.

Your cat foresees the bugs and glitches doesnt it?

Just means the full release, patched and upgraded will hit proper pc digital stores next year.
Seems like HZD really likes cores and threads. Guess I should hold off until an upgrade.
Good to know and I'm glad I didn't jump the gun on it. Very informative! Thanks, Durante

My cat foresees the possibility of this having lots of fun branching choices! I can live with the bugs :>
Lol, just take a gander at the twitter accounts of sports stars!! Most of the time its vs their own fans!!!!
Social media has brought an uncomfortable amount of access, going in both directions.
If I was famous, I'd have a twitter account by necessity but I'd have a professional publicist in charge of it and I wouldn't even want to know the password. Don't tell me about it, don't let me see it, nothing.
Anyway, Steam reviews are here to stay, steam has the best system for controlling "review bombs" bar none.
Whew. I forgot what early 7th gen games looked like in high definition on computer monitors.OUT OF NOWHERE!!!!
Jesus wept.
Seems like a very well-executed port.
I love that Durante's review actually goes into PCIe bandwidth usage. That's the first time I've ever seen a reviewer do that and it's something I can't commend enough.
It's also very heartening to see how well-parallelized that game is. I know it's something that the console's design required but it's still a beauty to see function in that way.

Haha. That Fall Guy twitter.....

The full story for that is that Dictator and I were seeing significantly different performance results on our 2080ti's and couldn't figure out why. Yesterday, while writing the article (and always thinking about that in the back of my mind) I remembered what a pain it was to get a consumer-platform mainboard where I can use all my NVME storage and peripherals without reducing the number of lanes to the GPU. And I also had the significant impact of loading on multi-core scaling fresh in mind, leading to the idea that the game streams a lot of data. So we used a small program to measure our respective PCIe throughput and there it was.I love that Durante's review actually goes into PCIe bandwidth usage.

I believe Alex will have a more in-depth look at the precise impact of it in his analysis.
At first I was like "it's not so bad..."
And then I remembered why I stopped caring about these mid 2000s PC games being re-released on Steam like 15 years later (for the most part).
Yeah.... First pic looks ok, then the horror of bloom, 2003 era character models and what can only be described as "grey green" appear.
Fallout 3 and GTA IV needed emergency pc modding intervention as not to burn retinas.
This is actually quite crazy, it means people might be sitting on a lot of performance and not know it. So who had his GPU plugged into the 8x PCIe port? Or was it a software problem?
This was a fascinating anecdote by the way, thanks for sharing.
Nice!
Alex had a 8x connection due to the 16x port the GPU was using sharing lanes with the port he used for his capture card, IIRC.
The thing is that existing analyses of lots of PC games show that people aren't really sitting on a lot of performance, because in the vast majority of games switching between 8x and 16x does very little (or nothing measurable at all).
Mortal Shell. Release date trailer, 18 august.
Not sure why it's taken down, breaking embargo, perhaps?
Awesome! Experience DRPGs are always a good time, and I had completely given up hope on a release of SoSC:R outside of the Vita.
(Now I just need the Demon Gaze games to escape the Vita's orbit)
If I ever make a game (which I doubt) I really want this to be the core message of the game. I doubt AAA devs would do it.. since it would piss off investors and that stuff.
And I guess even if they did people would maybe just not pick up on it at all and ignore the point of the game.
Seems like the Steam version of PSO2 is out now (I can't check though since I'm working xd).
Is it that bad? The video is down?
I thought that the game sounded cool and all that when they announced it.
Was this the new version that was only on Vita? And it's now getting ported to N/S and PC?
That's actually really surprising to me. With how much memory bandwidth and near zero-latency copies were supposed to matter, in games streaming stuff in and out so much I would have thought that port to be bottlenecked all the time.
