I'm not sure I've seen it but has there ever been like a steam key giveaway thread? I've got a few extra keys laying around and I'm not really sure what to do with them.

Blattdorf posted:Blasphemous is getting some free DLC on August 4th, and it looks to be massive in scope. It adds new monsters, bosses, sidequests, story, areas, you name it, while also revamping the map and combat to make it more palatable. Plus it will have a Spanish VO because why not. It's basically looking to be Blasphemous 2.0. This ain’t the switch thread but the game is half off on the eshop and people say it runs great on there as well if someone was looking for a portable version! Gonna add it to my steam wishlist as well though because the game looks great

Kragger99 posted:Just a general question to people that have moved from 1080p to 1440p. Did you notice a significant difference? I have a 1080ti, but will most likely be moving to a 3080ti when they come out, so I do (or will) have decent hardware. I have a 1080ti and I’m kinda regretting getting my 4K monitor lol and I’m thinking about going down to a 1440p monitor because games run so much better at 1440p. Maybe getting a 3080 when they come out will help some but 1440p still looks great to me

I think I was too focused on the one shot kill curse. Thanks! I added it to my wishlist. I also saw they have it on their roadmap for switch and iOS! Looks like a lot of fun

SSD's help with literally everything though. Loading windows is incredibly fast. Opening chrome. Any applications load way faster. Yeah taken one a time it might not seem like much but when you add things up over time the SSD is so much faster.

MonkeyforaHead posted:I really don't intend this to sound like a thing and will readily concede that every OS has its weaknesses, but a year or two back when EOL was announced for Win7 I finally made the jump to Linux and basically got the sort of performance boost people describe with SSD's. Then when I put Linux Mint on an SSD I basically noticed no difference because it was already taking ~10 seconds to load off an HDD OK well that sure explains a lot!

Saoshyant posted:I'm not in favor. This is the Steam thread. People actually talk mostly about Steam stuff than general PC stuff. Other storefronts have their own threads too like GOG's. Morter posted:I think it's better to keep it the Steam thread, since that's the basis of most release news and also gift giveaways. I'm sure plenty of general PC chatter/advice goes on in other threads, too. It's not terrible, but the focus of this thread is based on Steam. I absolutely agree.

Kanfy posted:The very cool lightweight roguelike Golden Krone Hotel got a major update today despite earlier statements of it no longer being updated while also being 70% off at the moment, I can recommend it for anyone looking for a roguelike that's easy to pick up while still rewarding playing smart. Nice this looks pretty nifty for $2.99. Thanks for the heads up!

Blattdorf posted:Nvidia has finally unveiled its new GPUs. It's perhaps not super pertinent to the thread, but it looks like a pretty big leap in many areas and their super big 3090 lets you play at 8K 60FPS. The 3080 is a huge jump over the 1080 for real. Here is the DF look at it https://youtu.be/cWD01yUQdVA

Black Griffon posted:I mean you're probably gonna get your hands on a real cheap 1080 at the very least. Tbh I’d be on the lookout for a 2080. The 1080 is still a good card but it’s a little long in the tooth and DLSS is pretty sweet.

Ugly In The Morning posted:It’s insane. I have more storage in SSDs than I ever did on platter drives. I can’t even remember the last time I bought a platter drive on its own- I have a few as external data drives but they’re all ones I salvaged new/like new out of things I was upgrading. I literally have a stack of platter laptop drives from people I’ve helped upgrade to an SSD and its like a night and day difference for them. A $50 upgrade from a 500gig platter to SSD is great and a no brainer for most systems.

sebmojo posted:They took the book out of the bundle when they were told about it. It's absolutely an over reaction. Sorry that’s unacceptable! I am going still be angry and do absolutely no research to see if they actually made changes to correct the issue! Anyway! I think this bundle looks pretty good I haven’t subscribed to humble before but for $12.99 it seems like a solid deal every month? Forager seems like a lot of fun from what I saw of it when I looked it up.

I get good, then some new game comes out and distracts me, I don’t play it for a while, and when I go back I’m terrible at it again. Oh I feel you. There are so many games I want to go back and play but I’ve forgotten so much. You aren’t alone.
