I actually miss stadia, but I won't miss luna. Yeah, I'm weird like that.

Oh, nice, I hope they fixed the achievements, as I remember some not working.
Will the native build be updated, though?

Valve recently confirmed Steam game pricing updates across different regions

I hope devs (and especially publishers) warm to the Purchasing Power Conversion method, it's the only fair pricing really.
I also hope that it won't be abused by the users, unfortunately I have little faith in that...

[edit] I took a peek at https://partner.steamgames.com/pricing/explorer [External Link] and multi-variable conversion is totally broken as of now. Exchange rate is fair (basically it's back to pre-2022 prices for PLN), Purchasing power rate is great, but milti-variable is way higher that both of them, for whatever reason. And it's not only for PLN, same goes for euro and GBP prices. It's almost like one of the "multi variables" was greed. 🤔

Breath of Fire IV plus classic Resident Evil 1-3 from GOG arrive on Steam - but with DRM
2 Apr 2026 at 8:11 am UTC Likes: 5

I see a convoluted marketing ploy here...

GOG modernised the games and is listed as a developer, explicitly as GOG.com...
They themselves carry DRM-free versions of the games...
The Steam releases have an intrusive DRM...
Therefore they hope that people who learn of the re-releases only because they got listed on Steam, see that they have DRM, but also see the GOG.com badge, jump over to GOG and buy them there...

...but maybe it's just me. ;-)

First we lost physical contact with people and replaced it with virtual one, now we're losing virtual contact with people and replacing it with AI interactions. GG humanity!

Less Miserables, a point-and-click parody of Les Miserables gets a demo
30 Mar 2026 at 2:59 pm UTC

Quoting: whizse
Quoting: pbThe artwork looks suspiciously sloppy, especially the backgrounds...
From the Kickstarter page "Everything is hand made, with no AI used in any part of the process".

I don't know what is worse, if that turns out to be a lie or the truth. ;p
