Thread: MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS - Official Trailer
She did mention in an interview that she learned some French for the role, but, at least at this stage, it's impossible to say whether that was for something that's still in the movie or because Rourke and co. were originally leaning towards giving Mary a French accent.

Nope. Gamesworks features were never advertised. It's not an Nvidia-sponsored game, and while that doesn't preclude the implementation of Gamesworks features, there's no indication they were previously present. Virtually all pre-release marketing was focused squarely on the X1X version. In fact, I think Centrestrain's very recent PC gameplay video was the first time Ubi let someone show the PC version. Undoubtedly false.

The DLC being what it is makes me wonder about Bethesda's future SP games. I think Doom Eternal is far along enough to sufficiently satisfy the craving of "More classic Doom", ditto for the Quake reboot that's almost certainly well into development (Machine Games' expansion + Scrags being added to Blood Covenant + Death Knight being one of the upcoming champions + an interactive if very basic version of Quake 1 being integrated into last year's QuakeCon stream on Twitch so viewers would have something to chew on in-between matches), but I can't help but get the feeling that the new Wolf game is going to disappoint. BJ being sidelined in favour of his daughters? Eh... Bethesda is pretty much the last bastion of traditional SP gameplay, unless you want to be super generous and count Valve on account of its promises and literally bottomless pit of money, so I do worry for the future.

The way it works is that you select your desired price for the US and the rest of the currencies/regions are pre-filled with Valve's recommended conversions. Sega doesn't use those ( Yakuza 0 and what USD$20 currently looks like by default) , so someone at Sega just hit 0 one too many times.

Thread: Yakuza 0 and Kiwami coming to PC
As I mentioned earlier, the way pricing works is that you select the desired US price and the rest of the currencies/regions are pre-filled with Valve's recommended conversions. You adjust those fields as you see fit (as Sega does) and then click "Save Pricing". The ridiculously high price in Indonesia was literally the result of someone hitting 0 one too many times. Discounting works similarly, although you need to be careful that the sale discount won't overlap with an existing discount as otherwise they'll stack. This is why, for example, the loyalty discount on Ori: DE was eventually changed to a coupon: Microsoft got tired of having to having to ask Valve to disable and re-enable it every time a sale was being prepared (loyalty discounts in particular don't stack atop existing discounts in a mathematically correct manner, so, for example, a 75% loyalty discount plus a 25% sale discount would result in a 100% discount and the game being unpurchasable).

Well, the Indonesian price was the result of human error, but the hikes in the other Asian regions were intentional, which is what Durante was referring to. Whether Sega wanted the game to be ~$30 and backtracked or there was some sort of communication error, however, who's to say, although I'm personally leaning towards the latter as I'd think that a bump up to ~$30 would be applied across the board rather than just Asia specifically.

Ah, right.

Only certain locations have items that count as collectables. They're technically "objectives". Once you've completed an area, it'll be ticked off on the map. Edit: Oh, I slightly misread your post. Once you've completed all objectives in a given location, there's no need to stick around as far as the game is concerned, but it doesn't keep track of lootable objects that aren't treasure chests. They're not really worth worrying about, though, as you'll only rarely (if ever) be compelled to part with your Ancient Egyptian Dollars and therefore don't need to concern yourself with becoming a walking, talking bank vault.

That denotes they're of a much higher level. You're likely to die in no more than a few hits and any damage you do is going to be on the small side.

You do. It's region-locked at both the activation and runtime levels. Your options are: - Finish the game while connected to a VPN - Connect to a VPN and switch to Offline Mode, at which point you can disconnect as Steam won't pick up on the IP change - Create a steam_appid.txt file in the directory of the executable and input a different app ID to trick Steam into thinking you're playing something else (but this breaks Steamworks integration and won't work if the executable doesn't use CEG/Steam DRM) - Wait three months following activation for the runtime restriction to expire Edit: Oh, sorry, I misread your post.

It sounds you moved the game installation folders but not the associated manifests, so Steam still thinks the data is in Steam\SteamApps and not the new library folder. If you navigate to Steam\SteamApps, you'll see a bunch of appmanifest_appid.acf files. You want to move those to the SteamApps folder inside the library folder you created on D: (e.g. D:\Games\Steam2\SteamApps) and then restart Steam. In the future, just back up the entire SteamApps folder. That way, you have everything you need and restoring the games is just a matter of moving the folder to its new home and restarting Steam.

Nope. 9am CET for everybody.

It's cross-region purchasing and circumventing region locks on gifts that Valve takes issue with.

Well, my admittedly fuzzy understanding of the underlying mathematics says that 8GB would divide nicely into a 512-bit bus, but I do know that bus width is not the be-all-end-all. Sorry, I know that's not exactly the informed answer you were seeking. I just felt that a response was better than no response. I can certainly see Nvidia making a lateral move... but something of a deliberate and downward punch? I'm not so sure. Even for such a blatantly confident company, that feels a little too risky. I should also add that 16GB has always struck me as too optimistic. 12GB would be my guess.

Even just 8GB VRAM makes this dubious. There's no precedent for Nvidia going backwards in VRAM from a Ti to the subsequent x80; the entire point of the bump is that it gives Ti owners a reason to upgrade beyond just a modest increase in performance. I don't see Nvidia putting 1080 Ti owners in a position where they have to choose between extra frames and a larger frame buffer.

I'd imagine owners of Tis tend to be enthusiasts who move up to the x80 and then the Ti and then the x80 and so on (I have a 1080 Ti myself and that's precisely what I've been doing since purchasing a 980). But, sure, I've no doubt some owners intend to hold on to theirs for longer, perhaps even until the 1280 or beyond.

If I were to guess, I'd say the maps aren't cross-platform because the limitations within the editor aren't universal.

These days, I think it'd be a matter of characterisation more than anything. People coming up to her while doing promo for Brooklyn to say how it made them reflect on their own thematically similar stories changed her outlook significantly. I mean, I gather she's always been a bit of a film buff, but literally coming face to face with the relatability of Brooklyn seems to the point at which she truly realised just how powerful a film can be when people can identify with the experiences of its characters. She still makes some room for roles that are appealing more because of personal interest, of course (e.g. Mary Queen of Scots), but crossing that threshold with a superhero character who's expected to become part of an ensemble strikes me as a tall order.

I have one ready to go. Well, readyish. The graphics settings section will probably have to wait as unlock o'clock is 6am here and there's no pre-load.

Thread: Shenmue I & II Remaster (2018; PC/PS4/XB1 - $29.99)
While true, the release of 1+2 will offer tangible insight into the distribution of the Shenmue audience and it therefore stands to reason that the success -- or lack thereof -- of the X1 version will later inform Ys Net's decision of whether to belatedly port 3 to the X1.

Thread: Shenmue I & II Remaster (2018; PC/PS4/XB1 - $29.99)
Oh, I'm just saying that's why people are making a link between X1 version of 1+2 and the possibility of an X1 version of 3, not that it's why 1+2 is releasing on the X1. Sega has no real way of knowing where Shenmue fans are, so it makes perfect sense that 1+2 is hitting the three platforms that can easily support it, and similarly, with an X1 version of 3 not currently on the cards (as far as we know, anyway), it's only logical that Ys Net will be looking over sales data when the opportunity to port 3 to the X1 presents itself.

At a guess, probably not (see: Crazy Taxi). Re-licensing the brands would likely cost too much for what's a relatively low-budget project.

Thread: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon |OT| Dracula's Circle
Not that this negates your point, but in the case of Steam, there actually is. Well, the button is green, not red: It's why you sometimes see an unreleased game listed as a new release: it's supposed to be available as the date and time the publisher selected has passed, but somebody forgot to flip the switch. It's also why rolling unlocks are rare, even among larger publishers, as there's no system in place to automate the process ().

To add to R8tedm3's post, the beta build is almost two years old (that's ignoring the language update that was released in May 2016 since, well, it was a language update) and has next to no content. It shouldn't be used to judge the game; you're much better off watching the .

That's not a Firefox issue but rather the way the forum software itself loads images. It's known as "lazy loading". Tech is looking into the possibility of making it optional as part of the ResetEra 2.0 update.

I imagine that's because the "lazy" image loading behaviour that's currently enabled makes the thread a bit of a pain to browse, and I also think it's partially due to the occasional mild drama these threads have a history of attracting when somebody attempts to police the direction of it and designates him/herself judge and jury of what constitutes a screenshot worth sharing.

Gamesplanet is no longer selling the game for some reason, not that it matters either way since the key would be region-locked and CD Keys is selling the very same ones for ~€22.80.

While the SSA technically prohibits using a VPN at all, in practice Valve cares only if you're using one to engage in cross-region purchasing on the Steam Store itself or circumvent region locks on gifts specifically, and it stopped banning/suspending accounts back in early 2012 in favour of a restriction-based penalty system that merely disables access to certain features (well, ).

Those in Europe can pick up the game from CD Keys for ~€22.80, but otherwise it's full price or nothing as the retail key subs are heavily region-locked and the only authorised distributor selling keys is Gamesplanet.

If I may make a small suggestion: replace the image in the OP that shows how to find the URL of a post with an updated one that says only to click on the post number. The teeny-tiny problem with using the full URL directly attached to a post's date or number is that, with the exception of the first 50 posts, any such link is going to be invalid for those using a different PPP setting. The shorter URL that's returned when you click on the post number redirects people to that specific post regardless of whether they use 50ppp or 100ppp.
