Nice. Curious to see how it looks given the talk of DLSS and RTX being used.
I’ll probably blow through it tonight.

By the way about that post about that one Japanese executive and PS5 sales and PC stuff
I'm pretty sure that's it's some one from Bandai.
I have to say I enjoy this video of the funniest comments found in Team Fortress 2 back when the source code leaked:
Yeah, i suspect it's the original script that Hot Coffee reinstated.
The GTA Trilogy shipped with the uncompiled, unencrypted script file to all the missions. It's the original Rockstar file not the GSG file so it's the original Rockstar comments too. lol.
Mutli billion dollar cheap-ass company and the PC Launcher is STILL down. I'd laugh if it wasn't for the fact that people can't even play the games they bought issues or not. Wonder if they'll blame DDOS?
It's a tale as old as time.
There's been some golden comments in source code going back to the dawn of computing.
The early 80s and 90s were gems for disgruntled coders to write scathing comments about their colleagues, the management or life in general but there's also some gold there too.
I think the Cutting Room Floor site has some but there was a site that had lots of coder comments. The ones in the 90s on Amiga & ST aimed at the crackers and hackers in Pirate crews were especially funny/angry.
Yeah. Don't be like me and, in a rush of fury, write 'fuckingstring' in your code.
That wasn't a fun day.
Tell me your company is a terrible place for women to work at, without telling me your company is a terrible place for women to work at
I believe it's due to both names consisting of a single word, both are verbs that refer to a spoken act, and they are both verbs used as an adjective.
So 320 copies sold on EGS.
Damn. Like, holy fucking shit damn. As long as he is not joking.
No wonder a lot of indie devs don't bother advertising the EGS version for multistore releases. So despite the lower cut, EGS doesn't do much unless Epic manually advertises it aka pays a shitload to streamers and manually puts it on the front page.
nah, not hot coffee, thats referencing Sweet (CJs brother), apparently thanking CJ for something and then leaving to have sex. Must be a cutscene after a mission.
but yeah theres about a million ways to comment this in a more professional way.
Sweet departs with a lady to copulate
I wonder what Epic’s share of games like Let’s Build a Zoo would’ve been if they’d spent money building a platform and signing their own games to publish from day 1 rather than antagonising communities by signing third party exclusives like Metro Exodus and Shenmue III?
Patience and a slower but more humble start would’ve worked better for them vs going for headline-grabbing exclusives that only led to negative word of mouth.
I really think they had a golden opportunity (i.e. money) to build something really interesting with the EGS but instead decided to just fling shit around and needlessly toxify communities.
People didn’t want console style exclusives on PC. They wanted new features and quality of life improvements. I don’t think they could’ve read the room any worse than they did.

... all thanks to Sergey
The only thing he’s good at is grift. He’s still getting £10,500 a month from the Steamspy Patreon (despite that site being terribly inaccurate), not to mention Sweeney’s cash for running the EGS.
It'll still be the same old tired ubisoft formula
Well with him there is still hope. Ubisoft wouldn't probably pay him sh*t ton of money to come back if new AC was going well. And if he is excited about it that means that he got to work on things he really wants so that means that there is some hope.
The only thing thats gonna change is that all your loot will be NFTs.
Not a joke it seems.
So Steam is after all very valuable for indies. Huh.

much appreciated :_
Nice sales thread, shame about the issues they had with Steam too but are those really lost sales, like there's a non negligible amount of people that won't try to buy this or other games ever again because Steam was having issues at launch? Someone link Tim to that so he buys a million EGS copies to change the %.
I almost asked about it here recently, actually. I tried it a while back but I found it kinda rough and amateurish and bounced off of it pretty hard. I know there was a massive update recently, though. Has it been significantly improved?
Looking a bit stiff but nice job with hopefully fun gameplay and AI interactions/possibilities. Boomer sneaking, haha.
Yeah I'm not super surprised it's not really worth it to put some of these smaller games on EGS.
The update turned the game into a real metroidvania, fine tuned the controls and added several new areas and weapons. I like it a lot, and recent user reviews seem to be very positive as well. Definitely worth a second chance!
Geez, DLSS continues to be dark sorcery.
Tried out Bright Memory Infinite. Settled on Medium Ray Tracing and Quality DLSS on 1440p. Mostly 50-60 fps though it does drop significantly when a lot more goes on, probably need to drop something (I guess either Ray Tracing or DLSS)
But anyway, I wanted to compare DLSS Quality with native, so I switched that in an area where I had locked 60 fps.
Without DLSS those 60 turned into 4.
Four.

I don't know why companies keep sabotaging themselves by not releasing Day 1 on the biggest PC platform and making us use their shitty launchers. They take so many anti-piracy measures that end up screwing over paying customers. Pirates are having a better time playing the game.
But remember, it's just another launcher.
