Quoting: PackRatThe day i heard this news i installed windows 10 the same day. Wow so this is what unreal market place looks like! VisualStudio already setup! No more compiling unreal engine 4 and setup codelite accessor.Valve created SteamOS as a response to the windows store. The Universal Windows Platform does not require $5000 to develop windows games and xbox games .Linux what a waste of time...
Just read the same on Steam [External Link], how often are you posting it?

And who wants 5000$ from you?

Well, to begin with, they're not all coming out at the same time, you should have plenty of time to finish TToN before the other games come out. Second, D:OS2 has not been confirmed for Linux. Even if it does come to Linux, given how long it took the first game to make its way over to the penguin, you may be waiting a few years.
I didn't even get to Shadowrun Hong Kong, Pillars of Eternity Whity March and Tyranny yet, and wonder if I should play more of Divinity Original Sin (or give up on it)...
I don't find enough time, there's so much else to play (Infinifactory, 70 hours at the moment X) ), and when I've played one big roleplaying game, I don't like just plunging directly into the next one. I guess I'll need to pass over some of them.

Quoting: GuestI'm not here to research for you, you are not that important.
If you feel what you want to say is not even worth your own time, who am I to object? Just don't expect others to find it worth their time then...

Bye bye

Hyper Sentinel, a throwback to old-school arcade action is seeking funding on Kickstarter

Quoting: rustybroomhandleIt's weird they don't mention Uridium, since that's exactly the game their throwback is throwing back to. I just fired up Uridium again the other day for a spin, and daaang it's smooth.
It was the definition of smoothness to us back then!

NVIDIA 378.13 stable driver released

Quoting: jnriversI think it's pretty sad how vsync has become a lost pinnacle of technology that current developers struggle to once again reach and achieve. Remember 10 years ago when our graphics draws sync'd with the monitor refresh? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Then again, in (hopefully less than) 10 years we will wonder why it was ever different from the monitor refresh being sync'd to the graphics draws.

Of course, it is a "Luxusproblem"! :)
(Does this translate to "happy problem"?)

Quoting: M@yeulCWoops, I screwed hard on this one. I wanted to get back home and use my Linux PC to redeem the keys (Linux purchase and such), then realized that games that I wanted were gone from the bundle (No time to explain and nuclear throne -- maybe subnautica if I have a vive in the future and it get ported to Linux. Strike that. Every game I missed. I'm up for a trade with someone else on these (against key from other bundles I might not have redeemed)).
But what's heartbreaking is that, as I rushed to press purchase (greedy reflexes), I forgot to customize my split :/

Don't do the same mistake as me, but be aware that their steam keys seem to be in limited supplies. I don't know what it means for the game that "may" come soon.
It seems both games are back in action!

Wait - you don't believe someone who has done a complete one minute search on the internet?!? ;)
