I finished Hypnospace Outlaw the other night. Man... The fact that I have not heard more people talk about this game is a travesty. I didn't even grow up with that style of internet, but it was so lovingly crafted and I had enough knowledge of it to see how true it was. I absolutely loved it.
Edit:
I can't decide on which game I want to start next: Eastshade, Heaven's Gate, or Pathologic 2 (for those Halloween vibes). Something to tide me over until Disco Elysium comes out later next month. Any suggestions?

Doesnt matter at all, but I think most play Leon first like I did. Although canon-wise its Claire, Leon 2nd Run then HUNK (4th Survivor).
It doesnt matter. I did Leon A Claire B at launch and last week finished a run of Claire A Leon B.
Its probably my GOTY.
Game definitely deserves a lot more recognition. I ran into a bug where I lost my progress in the final stage where you can get to every single website, and that I had extensively beta tested and had played ~35% of the game already, diminished my personal enjoyment. Still a fantastic game.
Eastshade seems like a light chill game so it gets my vote.
Done and done.
Started up Eastshade recently and it's really taken me by surprise. Sports a lot more depth than I initially anticipated, but maintains a Zen, dreamlike gameplay loop in a gorgeously lush sandbox that's like a hybrid of Skyrim & MYST. Really unique experience.
(Got Pathologic 2 on my shortlist for a future visit.)
Whoever is fine. However, pay attention to the menus and once you're done with a character (say, Leon A) be careful to continue with the B scenario of the opposite character (so Claire B).
A friend of mine did Leon A and Claire A and didn't understand what I was talking about.
Pathologic 2 is the best game released this year, but is a draining time.
Decided to start up Eastshade. It's a really interesting game. I feel so zen playing it. Excited to play more!
A bit of a weird request but is there a way to filter gog.com to only show "old games"?
Nothing against GoG but generally speaking, if a game is available on Steam I will pick it up there first but they offer a ton of old games that are not available anywhere else and I'm happy to buy them there.... I just kinda don't care to navigate that site having to manually ignore all those latest indie games on there.
I'd love to be able to just see what old games are currently on sale at any given time.

They used to let you filter by years but they unfortunately got rid of it.
Yeah, it's kind of a bummer browsing through GoG when you only want to see old stuff and you're seeing more recent titles.
Your best bet might be looking for old devs who are no longer releasing games and filter things that way.
Or go by genre and then sort by least sales. You're likely to find some obscure old games that way.
Can't believe how over priced it is considering the lack of any real changes.
so i finally got around to playing cuphead
beat the first couple stages/bosses
running into a weird thing where if im holding shoot i cant always get the higher (the hold the a down) jump and just always get a tap a shorter jump
its awful
i wonder if its my controller
googling it just brings up thousands of pages about people who cant parry correctly

High jump is not thaaaat higher. Maybe try switching your keybindings to test.
it works about half the time so it's really easy to tell
in the flower fight it's the difference between making the flower platform from the ground or not
also none of those discussions had an answer :(
Finished Blades of Time, pretty cool game for such a low budget title. A shame that we'll never see a sequel, the ending isn't that conclusive...
Now I've started Timeshift, I've already played it a couple of years ago (When i found it boxed) but I feel like it's the right time to do another playtrough on Steam, it's worth even if only to have some screenshots on the database.
Not bad for a 12 years old release...

So, Destiny 2 download size is almost 80gb in size. Do I need another 80gb of free space when it unpacks later?
I'm concerned about the Steam's unpacking mechanism. I remember reading that you'll need 2x times of the download size because while unpacking, you will need space for both downloaded and installed files. Steam will then delete the downloaded files after it's finished unpacking. Is that true?

That is cool then!
Yeah the quality looks clean and nice. Enjoy the game mate :3
I don't think its necessarily 2x the size but yes, you do need a hefty percentage of the game's size available on top of the preloaded files.
Valve fixed that in mid-2015. These days, Steam splits pre-load data into 1GB chunks that are deleted on-the-fly during the decryption process. You'll still need some headroom to account for compression, but you no longer need to ensure you've enough space for both the pre-load and the installation.

Cool, thanks!
I guess I'm safe with 70GB left for now.
Yeah would be interested in that as well, but i dont think theres a date announced yet.
Reminder: Cancel your Uplay+ if you got the trial and don't want to keep it, this is the last day to do so.
Yeah this is f-ing insane

It looks and sounds amazing! I never play Microsoft Flight Simulator before nor own flight gear, so I'm really happy that the game's gonna be casual friendly.
If the game's available on GamePass, I can see myself subscribed to the service for years just for this game.

Highlight thread is up everyone. There are over 200 releases between September and October I actually neared the image limit on era while making this hence why I am using 2 posts @o@

That looks incredible. Sounds like a really impressive simulator so far, hope it lives up to the promise.
