As a long time Steam user, while I still really like Steam and think it's the more consumer friendly platform, it has devolved greatly. Especially discussion forums are nearly no different than reddit toxicity where people exhibit their worst behaviors. I miss the legitimate discussions and love for specific games. Now it's mostly complaining and complete disregard for developers being humans.

The flood of garbage games has also been fairly obvious over the last decade. Some filters on your account handle a lot of this at least for the adult ones, but not all of it. It reminds me of the Wii shovelware era, but far worse.



BUT I would remind the Senator they STILL don't even have a fucking budget passed for this fiscal year we are already a month and a half into and they oughta stay in their lane and do their first basic god damn job before pointing at the supposed failures of others.

Elder Scrolls Online, as long as you find a good group of friends.

I also nearly have 1000 hours in MGSV Phantom Pain.

This kid in the story was walking around where demonstrably dangerous cars could hit him.

What are we arguing here?

Misleading headline.

From a different site:

with attackers demanding a $150,000 ransom in “baguettes,” an obtuse reference to the company’s headquarters being located in France. In reality, the attackers are looking for payment in Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

Saw a bunch in the store. Seems plenty available. Interesting.

Mine play the heck out of the Wii U and the DS. I still am occasionally acquiring and playing a new Vita game almost yearly.

I now play my Steam Deck most of the time and the PS5 hardly gets touched.

A lot of Ys games. Certain Metal Gear games in a way have NG+ with carryover stuff.

More games need a solid NG+ that feels fun and rewarding.

It's nice to see, but just some initial fooling around leaves more to be desired. There's basic ease of use things that other recording systems have had for years that it seems to lack. Such as a quick and easy way to just say "save the last x minutes."

No, you can either record far more than necessary and drop pins for later, or you can specify when to start and stop (as if you know when somethings coming up), or apparently grab only the last 10 seconds in a quick clip.

I prefer to save recent funny things, but sometimes they are varying time lengths. So it's a tad disappointing, but it's pretty cool for a start.

Also it's already crashed my Steam Deck once within like 10 minutes of fooling around with it.

You still have Forza, Forza Horizon, Gran Turismo, Wreckfest, F1, WRC, Need for Speed, Assetto Corsa, iRacing, MotoGP, Monster Energy Supercross, Hot Wheels Unleashed, NASCAR, and Lego 2k Drive just to name a few that have current or recent releases and are great and fill a wide variety of needs for racing.

Even Project Cars, The Crew, and Dirt had recent solid entries in the last decade that are still good today, and some obscure Saturday night local track style racing games like World of Outlaws, SRX, and various Tony Stewart dirt racing games have been released in the last 5-10 years.

There's also remakes like Burnout happening.

There's tons of racing games.

The Last of Us was released for the PS3 in June 2013.

The Last of Us Remastered was released for the PS4 in July 2014.

This game worked naturally on Steam Deck at launch. One of the first patches broke it. I don't want to go into beta mode or other tinkering to make it work. Disappointing.

 

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana for PS Vita. Fishing edition. Some random fishing pics I grabbed. I liked the fishing part of the game. It even slightly contributes to the story and progress if you catch them all.
