I am impressed with how many indie games support Ultrawide resolutions out the box. I wouldn't even stress it if they didn't fully support my stupid res, but I think I've been pretty lucky. The only time I have 0 expectations is with Unreal Engine games. The default way that engine handles UW is garbage.
The last few games I played through (Death's Door, Flower, Salt and Sanctuary) all fully supported it
21:9 is the sweet spot, but this monitor landed in my lap so I gotta make it do what it do. Don't judge.

Was eVolve no good? Maybe they just need to get out of the PvE/L4D mold a bit more to see what they're capable of?
Had the Steam survey pop up today and i dont have my Index plugged in so it wont log my one.
some weirder small reelases of today:
Set in the town of Beardsville, where the law requires every citizen to have a beard, you wake up one morning to the horror of all horrors...someone has stolen your beard!
"It's basically Dragon Quest meets depression, but with the choice to make a party of dogs." -Liberty of RMN.

I always thought that evolve was meant to be a decent game let down by being carved up before release so they could nickle and dime customers.
Never got a chance to play the game. So could be wrong there.

Call of Duty sale on Steam. I know it was probably scheduled in advance but what fucking timing... they should leave and never come back.
It could in theory be the new BioShock, or Ghost Story Games (Ken Levine's studio)'s new title, they've been in development for a while, but I get the feeling those are still a bit further off.
Finally playing Below, digging the explore mode a lot. It sands down some of the biggest bullshit the original mode had.
Below was so close to being great for me but there were some design decisions that just annoyed me and made playing it a chore.
I need to give it another try since they added Explore Mode. The atmosphere, sound and art design were fantastic, i loved exploring and figuring out how to progress but it was just too harsh when you died and had to do a corpse run with no resources.
Now you've mentioned Below i'll bump it up the list of games i need to go back to and try again now i'm in a different mindset or they've been patched.

Naked muscular man with a black hole as head. Unless this is tied to lore, there has to be other design choice than this main character of Grime, right?
Normally art style won't stop me from playing a game, and the gameplay looks pretty cool, but that naked man certainly isn't pleasant to the eyes lol.

Aside from the awful fishing minigame (that thankfully on PC we can do something about), I'm enjoying Nier Replicant so far, even the "old game" parts.
But I really have to turn a mental "Anime filter" to ignore one of the characters outfits. Makes the one from Automata's 2B look like a regular military uniform

Nonono, it's not a man, the character is the black hole and he just uses rocks as a body!
The game has a demo, it was pretty cool and you get armors that make your rock man less rocky
Are you telling me that he is actually muscular Kirby...?
Edit: Downloading the demo now

I finished it.
It still has a lot of bullshit, but they made the corpse runs more manageable because the campfire teleport doesn't burn out, and normal fires last until you die. There's still a section there though that's just real shit even with the changes and just like makes you wonder what they were thinking.
Here's the Steam announcement for what the explore mode contain if you are curious for the full list.
Humble Choice day, it will be good one right? Right?!
Depending if the previous one was good or bad, the next one will be opposite
Tried Grime demo on a whim.
Can't attack. With Xbox Controller or Keyboard. No mention of it in the Steam forum, just an old June 15 post mentioning the bug to the dev, which replied they would look into it.
How to unsell me your game.

Went full keyboard, tried to change buttons, nothing, couldn't get out of the 'assign new button' windows. UNINSTALLED.

I don't know
Not sure if this should be good or bad news
Tencent stock plummets after that a state media called gaming is like opium.
Tencent Sinks After China Denounces Online Gaming
Shares in Tencent and rivals plummeted after a state-owned newspaper criticized online gaming as “opium for the mind,” fueling concerns that the companies’ games could be swept up into a broader regulatory crackdown.

Bad news since CCP is so good at ruining it's own culture and business by destroying it by themselves
Did you progress a tiny bit?
Because the game does not give you a way to attack early on, only parry.
I readily admit I can be dumb, but hey !
That being said, as I had absolutely nothing to play in the 1300+ games in my library, and was super bored, I tried something. Turned out it was the stupid wireless dongle from my logitech keyboard that was making the game go mad.
Finished the demo and now I'm not sure of myself. On one hand I like the weird aesthetic, on the other yeah, it's fucking 2d Dark Souls and I'm not really in the mood to rage and maybe ultimately not being able to finish the game. Annoying, I liked the demo.
...
Mmh, Death Door + Grime = 30 something euros on Humble
But that's not how I will be able to afford a Deck

About the not want to rage thing, it's worth noting that all the games that tempted me to install were Souls-like. Like Blasphemous or Hellpoint. I have issues. But is it my fault if I don't care for hard bosses but love the sense of adventure in these games ? Well, yeah, probably. But my point still stands ! Or something.
I played Grime Demo for half an hour. My biggest takeaway is that they should have shown armor in that freaking trailer (they do show them in screenshots). I really thought we need to stare at a naked man throughout the whole game!
The gameplay is indeed pretty good. I like how the game revolves around the absorb ability. It has three uses so far: (1) parry (even ranged attacks), (2) absorb enemy to build up breath, which can be used to recover HP, and (3) absorb each enemy for a number of times to grant you access to skills. This is definitely an indication of a good design.
Developer says it lasts for 15-20 hours. At the moment I crave for meatier experience so I will get it down the road.

I am very interested in both Blasphemous and Hellpoint, but I need to really sit down and play Dark Souls first. It has been sitting in my library for a while but I always prefer starting other games over it. My plate is kinda full right now, maybe I will start it around the beginning of next year.

I believe it is extraordinarily good/bad. But I guess in Humble's case extraordinarily bad.
My main issue with a potential remaster of vice city is it will be the usual deal on pc. We will have to wait the year plus for it to come out.
Also fuck em for being so heavy handed with the modding community.

Now that we now more of how badly EGS has been doing, at least in certain time periods, I wonder how bad PC game pass is doing. As in, how many are only subbed to PC game pass, not ultimate.
No doubt Valve is the one make profit on PC. Epic pouring out money for exclusives that don't sell and multistore releases that doesn't seem to sell (at least devs don't seem to care about advertising for the EGS version) and then Microsoft who is pouring money into game pass PC, definetly losing money.

I think Gamepass PC is probably doing alright, it's a good service weighed down by the awful store app.
Definitely. The service is great, the app is abysmal. A true embarrassment for a software company.
Thats... actually scarily apt, not gonna lie.Are you telling me that he is actually muscular Kirby...?

I was going to buy the Expansion pass for Shadow of Mordor since it's quite cheap on Humble Store. But seeing that the reviews are mostly negative I might hold on buying it. Are the dlcs really that bad?
