If GOTY Edition of Automata ends up being a seperate entry on Steam, will you double-dip?

Also I'm super curious if it'll be updated...

If it's just the game + dlc it'll probaby be free for users who have both anyways.
That said, i already bought five copies, why not add a sixth.

I sure hope it'll contain some fixes, would certainly be a grade marketing point for the release, but i won't expect it.

How's Monster Hunter World these days? They address the performance and networking issues?

They did for the most part. Runs well enough for me, but I also managed to sidestep most performance issues somehow. The really glaring performance drops that happened with certain alpha effects have been patched. As for network issues, I very rarely encounter one nowadays. At launch I dropped out of the majority of my sessions, but now it's maybe once every thirty hunts or so. More likely to be instability on my end, I think.

Forgot to further expand on my recommendation for Unavowed ^^;
It's a Point n' Click adventure game that lets you tackle missions with any combination of 2 partners letting you solve different puzzles depending on the partner you took along with you.
The story and characters are great and it has a nice Young Adult fantasy story.

The House In Fata Morgana. it's a visual novel. you click, there's text (alongside music/background art/character sprites), you click again, more text. It's one of the best stories I've ever experienced.



System Shock 2
Very old, but it's basically a precursor to most immersive sims (Bioshock/Prey '17/Dishonored...)

How is Shadow of War these days? Curious how it holds up with all of the DLC or if it's better to go for something else.

Celeste discount is such weak sauce. Can't really blame them I guess as they are gonna be riding that game awards wave.

There is gonna be another sale during the Keighley show on Dec 6 like every year and hopefully by winter sale it gets a much better drop because 20% is meh.

I am tempted by a 1070 Ti for £375 in the UK Black Friday sales, currently have a 650 Ti (lol) so don't do much PC gaming recently. Is this a stupid thing to buy right now? I think this is a good price, I've been looking casually for probably a year+... is it?

The GPU landscape at the moment is messy and confusing. Main thing with this card is it has 2x HDMI, and DVI alongside displayports so I can run my screens without needing DP converters for now. My monitors are 1440p also a 1080p projector where occasional PC games might be played with a controller. I mostly want an upgrade as I'm starting to learn Unity dev and shader programming etc, which the 650 might be ok for but I doubt it (don't know yet). I game on a PS4 Pro / PSVR with good friends and owning such a GPU might cause internal conflict too lol.

I want to play X4: Foundations (if it's good) and the 650 will certainly not suffice for that...

Rest of the system is an FX-8350 with 8GB, Win 8.1 (not convinced on Win10 yet so Radeons are out)

Already picked up a pair of 500GB Samsung Evo 970s in BF sales (and a PCIe adapter card to run one, as my MB is too old), those were a much easier decision! Half of me wants to hold off for 7nm. Though if a 2070 was £400 I think I might have snapped one up without much hesitation.

Voidu has a 30% off code BLACKFRIDAY that works on everything but Ubisoft games.

For example it brings Bomberman R down to 14€.

Will the steam winter sales be better or at least same pripri as the Autumn sale?

I would assume most publishers will stick to same discounts since the two promotions are close to each other.

Capcom will stick to same discount rates. We'd want to avoid pissing off customers who just bought our games during Autumn Sale only to find out it's cheaper three weeks later.

There was also rumors that dailies and flash deals might return so it can get a lot crazier. Tho irrc it was debunked.

One thing is certain is that saliens game should be returning.

Is the DLC for Rise of the Tomb Raider worth it? Did the Steam version get (perfomance) patches, that the Windows store version didn't? Edit: I guess that i should do more research.

Blood Ties is legitimately great, and the best thing from the entire reboot series. Highly recommended if you're in anyway a fan of walking sims. The Baba Yaga stuff was alright. Not played the other one.

I'm probably going to get that Diablo deal. The Battle Chest doesn't come with the Necromancer DLC, right?
