I remember, Starfield came out during a time I didn't keep up with video games and video game news at all. I literally heard of that game for the first time on the same day it was released - in my Steam launcher. Saw that big shiny in-launcher ad, thought "oh, a Bethesda game", downloaded it and absolutely loved it for some 50-60 hours.

Then I looked into the internet about Starfield for the first time and was surprised just how much hate it had garnered. I am pretty sure, had I tried the game with a negative mindset (or with high expectations from someone who waited for it for years), I would have enjoyed it far less or not at all. And I hate that part of me that can be influenced by the opinion of others.

Either way, despite its shortcomings, I will definitely give this update a try. If they somehow fixed the immersion factor of traveling, this would be a huge step into the right direction. The other one would be having more diverse procedural generation, so I could finally have my Daggerfall in space.

How come I never heard of this game? 1998 was my heydey and bought every gaming magazine there was in the 90s.
I must have been too busy with Baldur's Gate, Fallout 2 and Might & Magic 6 🤔

But can you oversalt the fries so people buy more soft drinks?

The only Sony-exclusive games I wanted to play in recent history were Gran Turismo and Bloodborne and they never ported those anyway. So I guess not much of value is lost for me.

So is that the reason they completely pulled the other BSG game from Steam a few months ago?

Either way, as a huge BSG nerd I will definitely check this one out. So say we all.

Someone told me it's "impossible", because of reasons I forgot.
But oh do I wish the Total War Warhammer series would come to GOG...

Alone in the Dark 1 was the first 3D game I have ever seen and I was blown away. I also remember the raving reviews in the game magazines when it came out, because in 1992 this felt like a jump 10 years into the future of gaming.

Not sure I would play this again, but I love free stuff, so I will add it to my library.

Nice, the Forza Horizon in Japan that has been rumored/hoped for the last 10+ years.
Hope it runs on Linux, I would actually play that.
