I am kind of interested in seeing how bad this bug was that they needed to do a last minute delay rather than releasing it and making it a known issue; I am guessing it is easy to do even if you know about it already.

I for one will play BG3 definitive enhanced goty all-DLC edition like 4-5 years from now when it's at a 75% sale, just as Gabe intended.

I’ll get to it as soon as I finish this first time playthrough of Fallout New Vegas, and then maybe Cyberpunk 2077. And Divinity Original Sin 2. And and and

Whatever it was it was bad enough for the Gamespot review to go into the forbidden numbers when reviewing the advance copy.

From the current Visual Novel sale, I highly recommend GNOSIA.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1608290/GNOSIA/

It's primary gameplay loop is a pretty interesting single-player implementation of Wolverine/Mafia with a good overarching story.
I honestly blasted through the whole game in a couple of days because I was fascinated by the gameplay. Never played anything like it before or since.

Also wow, I didn't expect Steam to actively promote the porn game category.


I thought they were a little bit more hush hush about it with AO games being hidden by default.

I guess that makes sense. I didn't expect Valve to have so much foresight with their features.

Still, I'm pretty sure this is the first time ever that I've seen a porn category featured in a sale.

I assume they just have fetishes too advanced for us to even recognise them as being porn.

hm, I'm going to say there barely have any crossover with the story based VNs though.

Are there any VNs with gameplay similar to Analogue: A Hate Story?

I really enjoyed it but other VNs feel so passive in comparison.

A tangled skein of bad opinions, the hottest takes, and the the world's most misinformed nonsense. Do not engage with me, it's useless, and better yet, put me on ignore.
The only visual novel I've ever played was Doki Doki Literature Club.

I enjoyed doki doki enough that I read a bunch of other VNs. Having done so doki doki isnt like a deconstruction of VNs or anything it literally is just a VN and high school slice of life -> hosed up poo poo is the most common VN formula.

I ended up grabbing a decent amount of things in the Visual Novel sale (Steins;Gate , Muv-Luv / Muv-Luv Alternative, the Key bundle). I figured they would be great for the steam deck.

My visual novel experience is mostly limited to like Phoenix Wright / 999 / 13 Sentinels but I enjoyed all of those so hopefully I'm into some more. I've been meaning to play through Steins;Gate for years.

I've seen only sparse reports of crashes and bugs in the BG3. They just posted a patch that addresses some crashes and other things.


IMO play it now and then Starfield next month.

You might need glasses if you've only seen sparse reports. There are tons of bugs, some of them already reported years ago in the Early Access period are still not fixed.

But it's still a great game. Just wait for the Definitive Edition some time in the future if you want fewer bugs.

The One True Oden

I really enjoyed Umineko, but it helps a lot that it has full voice acting (with the mod https://07th-mod.com/home/, which also replaces the godawful pachinko art), I find myself getting bored with games that lack that or some sort of minor interactive element. I was really fascinated by the plot of like The Silver Case and Misericorde, but it's tough having those long, long stretches where you're only reading text.

Honestly, a steam deck might help....

I can't help but giggle at this comment because maximum flashiness and attractibility is THE biggest thing getting butts in seats at pachislot parlors. Ryukishi07's art is the exact opposite of what these addicted lever hitters want!

The pachinko/steam release doesnt use his art. It's redone art that adds some uh "enhancements". https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/4/49/Kyrie-pachinko.png/revision/latest?cb=20181205214045

They made a whole new set of sprites for every character for the pachinko machine! It's absolutely terrible.

Extra baffling because they already made perfectly good non-Ryukishi art for the PS3 version. They just decided to do it again, but worse.
