A personal favourite. Just one man's opinion, of course, but I bought the game again on Switch to have it portable.

I can't fault you on this. I'm embarassed to share the internet with the hypersexed games - I certainly don't want them on my account. Someone bought me a copy of House Party as a gift and I feel like a wanker even though I've never played it. I'd rather have had a digital version of the board game or the 1990 film with Kid & Play.

When did people start calling loosely structured open world games immersive sims. I keep hearing reviewers calling the new Zelda game one as well and it's driving me nuts. :arghfist:

For what it's worth, the better part of a decade ago I was watching Warren Spector shoot the poo poo with some of the other Deus Ex dev team veterans and he mentioned that he thinks Fallout 3/NV are immersive sims or at least adjacent to the genre. While Spector is absolutely full of hot air, his opinion on this matter does carry some weight.

And to be fair, the things that Bethesda-era Fallout games are best are the parts it shares with immersive sims. Bethesda is honestly really good at making interesting environments and letting you learn about the lives of minor characters while crawling through their vents. The parts of the games that fail are the RPG mechanics and the writing.

Annoyingly, even though every installer knows how big every game is because they tell you as soon as you click Install, they don't give you the option to sort games by install size. What if I want to download only the smallest games!

Steam let's you know the install size of any game that isnt installed already on their profile in your library. I don't believe that you can sort them by size though.

Edit: I'm talking about the PC app here.

Apparently you can sort them out by size on Steam. I'm not at home to try it out but apparently there is an option to sort by "Size on disk".

That option only sorts the games you have installed. Everything not currently installed is at the end of the list in alphabetical order.

I know EGS has a boogie man rep, but this doesn't make sense simply because there is so much loving money invested in EGS for them to knowingly do something to jeopardize it like that. Of course, dumber things happen all the time, but that would be the fastest way to completely kill everything they've invested in.

If a game is free on EGS you can post it absolutely, you can discuss the game, you can enjoy or dislike the game.

You can no longer talk about the pros and cons of EGS. Either make a thread about EGS and discuss it there or try to find the one that used to exist and post there.

No more derails about EGS in this thread.
