yeah bluestacks works fine if you like how it constantly randomly downloads and advertises games you don't want to play, and never stops needling you to activate hardware virtualization and i'm like idgaf about dropped frames

It doesn't download the actual game, it just puts a random game on your "desktop" which you can easily ignore. Can't speak about the hardware virtualization thing.

yeah at least there's that

otherwise it's a kind of meh year for pc aaa. i may be the only person who liked wolfenstein 2 so i'm interested in youngblood but that's about it. borderlands 3, no. rage 2, no. control, wait and see but also epic store. jedi fallen order, who cares. code vein probably sucks

i guess there's whatever ubisoft announces at E3, but unless it's rayman ubiarts 2 i dont care. they're probably going to announce watch dogs 3 with aiden pearce back as the protag. and the next asscreed is probably coming 2020

AAA games are boring. I'm more interested in The Sinking City, Blacksad, Sea of Solitude, Pathologic 2, Void Bastards, Outer Worlds, Katana Zero, Sable, Phoenix Point, Ori 2, Biomutant, and Rebel Galaxy Outlaw.

In the shadow of AAA games failing left and right the rise of the "AA" game is coming back.

I sure hope they add manual saves into Pathologic 2 because that crash eating the entire day will suck a whole lot at like day 9

P excited for it otherwise

I'm not kidding when I say shakedown Miami is May's game of the month, it looks better than a lot of AAA open world offerings right now. A game that didn't forget it's a game is always a good thing.

i haven't really looked into it at all because retro city rampage sucked and it's main point of interest was the dev porting it to everywhere just because they could

i'm fine with that, i just meant there's not a TON of games to push my gpu that fall into my line of interest this year. i'm in wait and see mode when it comes to sinking city, outer worlds and biomutant

e: actually biomutant is THQ so gently caress them

I'll probably have to make an exception for Desperados 3 which THQ is distributing but it's developed by the Shadow Tactics team and they deserve money as a small studio.

On that thought how about May Game Discourse Be With You (Game Chat Thread) :v:

I was the same way, but some early access streams changed my mind. It looks really fun. Gonna get it day one to support the crazy man for getting it out so quickly compared to last time.

The new Valve VR headset coming out in June, will developers have to release updates for their games to support it?
nope, any game built on steamvr will just work, they do have to explicitly support the new controllers if they want finger tracking but valve has been sending beta controllers to practically any dev that wants one for years so a ton of stuff already supports it

RE2 is incredible on PC + it's got a randomizer mod, and Iceborn will be coming later this year if you like MonHun
