Didn't expect to enjoy the Balatro demo as much as I did. Been a hot minute since I played much Poker, but I picked up what it was putting down pretty quickly.

Any word on whether or not they're porting it to phones? Seems like a good time-killer for when you're trapped on the subway or sitting in a waiting room.

I asked at some point while I was in the playtest (though I can't find the post on the steam forum right this moment) and iirc they said they wanted to do mobile ports down the line but were focused on getting the PC version balanced and out the door before thinking about it too much. I hope it comes sooner after the PC release rather than later even though having Balatro on my phone feels dangerous, it's been a hot minute since a game came out of nowhere and hooked me like that.

Maybe 600 times, maybe 700 times, maybe 1000 times, and then just pruning out the most obviously messed up ones and throwing in the rest, I figure.

At any rate I checked the mod and yeah it's incredibly obviously all AI-generated, even without the disclaimer outright saying as much.

The main thing that brought Btech down for me was the mission design. Like every other contract boiled down to "go here to fight an enemy lance, whoops here's a second lance as well". It almost always devolved into a knock-down drag-out brawl, which in turn meant there was hardly ever any reason not to always bring the absolute heaviest lance you can field. Maybe mods help there, but at the time I hadn't found any that really helped there.

fake edit: I just double-checked nexus in case something interesting dropped since I last played, and literally the very first entry I see in the mod list is this loving thing :laffo:


The only mod you need is BTA3062 which isn't from nexus it has its own website

Eh, give it time and I'm sure the same group trying to deny gay people exist in books will set their sights on games.

They'll never get anywhere.

I wasn't trying to paint this negative, by the way. I honestly don't give a gently caress about what people do in real life, how could I care whatever they do in their video games?

The people have spoken, and Balder's Gate 3 is a fantastic, deep and well written game where choices matter and you can sleep with lots of people in various forms. This is how it SHOULD be. I'm not sure how far Bethesda modders can go past mind flayer sex.

AW remastered and AW2 are published by epic themselves so it's safe to assume they are forever exclusives

irrational grudge that I will forever hold, caused by Phoenix Point (a game I kickstarted) announcing that it was going to drop the steam store and be epic exclusive instead, when I backed it for the express purpose of getting a steam key.

Thankfully I was later able to get a steam key from that so all is forgiven... but the grudge continues.

e: oh and hitman 3 came out on epic first for a year too. so the grudge got reinforced. I don't mind alternate storefronts (ubisoft, origin) but the way epic went about it pissed me off and I can't let go of that anger.

not going to repeat the same discussion in here, but Fortune's Run's release date is up in the air as they were rejected by Valve. you can see the Game Industry thread (or Early FPS) thread for more details but it comes down to both a rape scene in the game and poor QA in the tutorial

also My Time at Sandrock's Act 3 Update is out now which completes the story, though the final 1.0 date is still November

and Rhythm Doctor, after a long hiatus, is releasing their Act 5 update on Oct 21st

Fingers are crossed that Final Fantasy 16 and 7 Rebirth don't have that year long Epic Store exclusive period that 7 Remake did when they come to PC. But I'm going to get Alan Wake 2 over there with minimal complaint. This sequel by all rights just wouldn't exist without Epic's funds.

I've hit a point with character creators where instead of trying to make myself or a character, I'll just find the silliest thing I can find and work around that. That way I'm no longer disappointed by body shapes or the inability to find the PERFECT hair style. :argh:

Street Fighter 6 is incredible for this, you can do all sorts of wacky stuff (and then go beat up random pedestrians with your creation).

It honestly made me disappointed with the BG3 character creator, which is basically just about combining different parts and doesn't let you edit body proportions at all.

I am constantly driven mad because character creators will lack a haircut that is just 'about an inch and a half long all over, slightly untidy'. You can be Fashion Anime Boy or you can be Stern Crewcut Boy but you can't just be a guy.
