Has anyone ever experienced game crashes related to steam cloud saving? I kept getting crashes during Witcher 3 until I disabled cloud saves, and I'm trying to make sure I can play a game on one PC, finish, then import the save file in steam on a different PC for the sequel.

Ciaphas posted:confession: i've never played a streets of rage Additional confession: I've never played RCR or any of the modern remakes/reimaginings/etc I'm not really sure why, seems like something of that general ilk would be a lot of fun right now. I banged up my knee today - kneecap look like a goddamn melon, it's kind of rad  - so the recliner is the place to be for a while, with a controller, not a keyboard.So... what game should I start with? I'm biased toward newer games if that makes a difference!

My suggestion is free! Streets of Rage 4 is also on Game Pass

I highly recommend Streets of Rage 4! Just so you know what you're getting into: It's built to be similar to Streets of Rage 2. This means: no universal dash/run, it's a slower, more deliberate beat em up pace. The emphasis is on crowd control and enemy management instead of dashing in to take out enemies and dashing back out, which I feel Streets of Rage 3 and Remake do. There's nothing wrong with those styles! But if you know you like one more than the other that might make the difference. There other key difference between 4 and its predecessors is the existence of green life; basically refillable health when you damage enemies. You get green life by using your specials, whereas in previous games you just lost the life immediately. This encourages a high risk high reward factor where you can just stack up green life and it's okay because you can gain it all back if you don't get hit. Haven't played RCR so not sure what its strengths are but seems like it's generally well liked too! The other game that might pique your interest is Fight N'Rage, which is a lot more combo heavy and dash heavy. And of course, there's like a million classics if you want to go the old games route.

If you enjoyed Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark like me, you'll be happy to hear they just announced the expansion is releasing on June 23 for $13. The store page is also live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYe85S__H1k

I'm going to do some basic research, I barely even know what makes RCR distinct besides `BARF !!` and a vague sense that it's got a lot of RPG stuff - and maybe is nonlinear? Where Streets of Rage I guess is more Final Fight, kinda? That's the last game of the general archetype I can remember playing right now.

Ciaphas posted:Additional confession: I've never played RCR or any of the modern remakes/reimaginings/etc As much as I like River City Girls, Streets of Rage 4 is on Gamepass and if you don't have Gamepass you can get it for $1 for a single month. If you refuse to use Gamepass for some reason, than get River City Girls. Ideally you should get both.

Where Streets of Rage I guess is more Final Fight, kinda? That's the last game of the general archetype I can remember playing right now. Streets of Rage is a linear arcade stage designed game. If you played any beat-em-up ever at the arcade, it plays like that. River City is really an adventure game as you explore a city and backtrack through it to different branches Metroidvania style. They're both excellent games. I just am shocked that SoR4 is often seen as the superior game of the two. punk rebel ecks fucked around with this message at 05:13 on Jun 8, 2020 |

Artelier posted:I highly recommend Streets of Rage 4! Just so you know what you're getting into: Fight’N Rage is a very solid, unsung example of good modern beat ‘em up. It just feels good to play, and the introduction of parries and techs makes it feel more modern than the sometimes clunky or unfair feeling arcade classics. Great music, too, and a veritable ton of branching stage paths. It is a little too horny though, someone needs to throw some cold water on those pixel artists.

I think I like what I'm seeing as far as personal interest first in RCG, then SoR4, then SoRR in roughly that order. Suppose that's as good a reason as any to actually use that megalixir of a Gamepass deal instead of sitting on it for the "Right" time

A bit further from the genre is Aces Wild. It's basically a modern Astro Boy on GBA.

SirSamVimes posted:Have you tried verifying the file integrity? Thanks for the suggestions but neither helped get MO:Astray working. The crash report mentions my graphics card in a memory dump, and the crypt.dll in a log, which presumably is part of the unpack and DRM process when you run the game for the first time. I'll see if Google has any ideas, or maybe a full reboot. I'll update my Nvidia drivers, but that seems pretty unlikely.

Through the Itch.io launcher, I can add games to my library just by visiting their store page. You don't have to commit to a download. I'm not sure if the website can do the same thing. vvv Yeah.

If anyone has the game installed, do you have just 2 items in your Steam install directory? I have MOAstray.exe and a MOAstray_Data folder (with loads of stuff in it). Is that how it is supposed to look?

Trying min-max a new game is simply going to suck all the fun out of it, and Dragon's Dogma is pretty flexible in how you approach it.
