Am I one of the few who never registered for an Epic account?
I had to create one a few years ago for work but haven't had to work with Unreal Engine since so i haven't used it. I created a new email & account when i signed up to EGS because i had a suspicion shenanigans were about but i haven't used it since that first login.

If anyone has VR, free open beta for a few days.

Looks like Ubi copied Echo Combat and gave it some more simple to digest, mainstream trappings.

Ubisoft sale. Wasn't there one only a short while ago? They hungry for the Steam money.

FC:New Dawn -60%
I know Valve doesn't like to react to anything, but it seems a bit absurd that they keep promoting these Ubisoft sales with front page displays, instead of other developers or publishers, especially after what they have been doing.

As for Far Cry: New Dawn, if anyone is interested in it, I would seriously recommend you wait further for a lower price.
I really enjoyed Far Cry 5, but New Dawn didn't click with me, at all. and after not playing it for a month, I uninstalled it without even finishing the game.
It looks pretty, but the game bored me to tears.

Far Cry New Dawn -60% - 40€. So it's 100€ game now?
It's the Far Cry 5 + Far Cry: New Dawn pack that is on sale, not the actual game.

I was wondering why Ubisoft suddenly created regional packages for Odyssey. Guess for this.

I know that Sony pays for every game that a PS+ subscriber adds to hisher account but here, doubtful. And you pay. With your data. And by adding to their numbers. Getting played by Tim and China like a fiddle. Merkel is disappointed in you.
We dont know how they do it, but I guess its like with sony, humble and others that they only pay for claimed copies, everything else would be... strange....
and hey, it was just a thought I wanted to put out there, of course nobody has to do it.

and mama merkel loves me very much ok!


when is the valve stream?

Am I seeing things or is this article not trash but hitting all our talking points and asking the right questions?

The ones below though, don't scroll too far....

I THINK i managed to get Velocity 2X to run with as little stuttering as possible. Its launcher is annoying though, and it won't let me play windowed at 1080p since only the launcher chooses resolution etc.

Non the less I still like it. It's a fast paced and simple action game with a nice mix of light platforming+shoot'em-up.

EDIT: Actually stuttering might be the wrong term; it gets random 'freezes' or pauses form time to time and it gets annoying ugh =_=

"Alden steps to the mic. He works on the design side of features.... Wants to help you connect with your customers to make them happier"

That's nice, but seeing how some indie devs (at least) are like, they ain't gonna like what they gonna hear from their happy customers :V

Jez Corden is an excellent writer imo. He's also one of the few journalists who dared to complain about the Windows Store.

Sigh, like these features aren't built on Valve time and so in the making for a long time, no, everything on Steam ever from now on has to be a response to Epic, cos we can't help but pimp Epic and how they're the source of all good ever even when discussing something positive on Steam, lol.
