Bamco randomly publishing Freedom Wars on Steam was not in my bingo card but hey, "don't look a gift horse in the mouth "

I've used Intel CPUs for as long as I can remember, but I'll be going AMD here in a few months when the 9800x3D releases. I'm surprised I've kept this i7-6900K around so long, but at 4K it's held up pretty well.
This fixed it lolMy framerate issues specifically relate to all parts of the game, but i had some stuttering during the opening cutscenes in the tutorial area (that generally run well) too and this helped: GitHub - Lyall/FFXVIFix: A fix for Final Fantasy XVI that adds ultrawide/narrow display support and more.
Watch them updating it for free on PC and delisting the old version.meanwhile at sony:

Let's be serious here, the one and only reason is money. They want to extract additional money from Horizon fans and the only way is to remaster the first game since 1) the second game is still too new 2) the 3rd game is still too far away and 3) the gaas could do good, but it could also be another ConcordI honestly have no idea why you would Remaster HZD of all games, at least on PC. Its looks are the least of its problems, it still looks great.
I don't get the frequent Sony remasters either. Their story driven games are (for myself at least) inherently not replayable. I played HZD on a PS4. Nothing would get me to replay it on PC, remastered or simply ported.Let's be serious here, the one and only reason is money.

The FFXVI Port seems really bad to me.
I'm getting between 25 to 40FPS (depending on the environment).
What settings you ask?
All Settings!
Low Quality to Ultra Quality, DLSS on or OFF, Dynamic Resolution ON or OFF.
Seems like none of it has any impact on performance whatsoever
€: Getting about 5-10FPS more after updating the games DLSS files at least

After not giving an ass about PC for 11 years Rockstar decides to include BattleEye for GTA5 online. Breaking Steamdeck support for anti cheat that will be broken at release. Offcourse Linux is not a supported platform but this leaves a really sour aftertaste. Thank god I dont care much about GTA online but this sucks for people that play it on the deck.
The Old version being just 4 years old and still being used as a PC performance benchmark. Who tf asked for this shit? What about the Nathan Drake collection? What about bringing the old Greek GOW games to PC. Just bafflingWatch them updating it for free on PC and delisting the old version.
The catch? Mandatory PSN account

It wasn't about optimism, just the only way for them to have people upgrade to the new version and make new PSN accountsAh the optimism of youth! Here's what will actually happen;
No it won't be free.
The list is all true.Is this list fear-mongering BS or did eastasiasoft's Tokyo Clanpool PC release get blocked by Valve? It was to be the first port eastasiasoft has published on Steam
Banned Steam Games List
Considering the screenshots on Gematsu's site shows Ghostlight's 10+ year old keyboard prompts in them, I'm not holding out any hope for this rerelease if I'm being honest. They have a terrible track record on PC. I was looking forward to it based on the fact that EastAsiaSoft was publishing, but this is a massive red flag.Is this list fear-mongering BS or did eastasiasoft's Tokyo Clanpool PC release get blocked by Valve?

I remember years ago asking them in their Discord about a Seven Pirates H PC release and they basically told me they didn't see that as being profitable. Tokyo Clanpool being published on PC by them gave me hope of a change of heart, but, well, I'm sure this won't help!Considering the screenshots on Gematsu's site shows Ghostlight's 10+ year old keyboard prompts in them, I'm not holding out any hope for this rerelease if I'm being honest.

I'd like to know how Reverse 1999 got onto this list.
Maybe it's just me, but I see Sony (Crunchyroll, Funimation, Right Stuff, etc) essentially monopolizing the majority of the western anime distribution space as a huge mistake, and I'm shocked that they haven't been broken up yet. The same people who talk up about Microsoft consolidating a bunch of studios are mysteriously nowhere to be seen when it comes to this, and actually outright defend it in some cases. Crunchyroll already delivers a rather terrible user experience, and the price they're charging doesn't really go back to the pockets of anime studios.
I was reading this one thing about anime/manga and how an anime site closed down and I'm just reminding about how piracy when it comes to media, helps give access to people that otherwise wouldn't. Also the original thing is about cartoons and well American cartoons are treated very differently then anime, since companies like Warner will just straight up get rid of their stuff as use them as tax write off, you had a whole animated movie that was completed but because they feared it wouldn't do well that they never released it and just used it as a tax write off.
Are video games companies able to use games that bombed as tax write off, like the movie industry is able to? I know that video game companies do abuse tax write offs, Rockstar abuses UK tax write offs that are meant for smaller videos game studios but since they still qualify for those tax write off they make use of them.
The store bonuses for DERQ Code Z already look rather sauceless compared to their previous games with lower age ratings, and it's been that way ever since Neptunia x Senran Kagura. In a Famitsu interview, there's a part that Gematsu left out of their translation of the article, that effectively says that their new CEO is an ex-Electronic Arts employee, and they've had new policies set in place since NxSK. That was the first red flag for me.This has been a weird year for Idea Factory on pc, regardless of what happens with Tokyo Clanpool. Most of their upcoming 2024 and 2025 games are skipping PC (Death End Z, their Touhou game, Neptunia Riders, Neptunia Gamemaker), despite them being one of the first to start porting their console titles on Steam. Hell Gamemaker came out on Xbox for some reason
And yet they randomly released the Date-a-Live Ren Dystopia on Steam alone, and honestly I don't think that game is less "spicy" compared to most of their latest releases
It saddens me to read this because I think there was a period where Idea Factory was heading into a good direction, but it's absolutely true. Both Idea Factory and Nippon Ichi (the japanese side) have been very bad in "adapting" both to current trends, but also to their fanbase needs and wants. It's especially obvious when you compare them to other "Niche JRPG" developers who instead not only put more effort in giving fans what they want, but are also slowly escaping the "niche" like Gust or Falcom. At this point it has gone beyond "self-inflicted wound" and it almost feels like intentional sabotagingI would rather put $60 towards a gacha game like Zenless Zone Zero, Nikke, Blue Archive, R1999, or Snowbreak than to buy a new Compile Heart game at launch at this point. Been burned way too many times.
