Definitely, but according to Steam, it looks pretty good.

800+ reviews, Overwhelmingly Positive (95% positive).

According to the Wayback Machine the banner looked the same as for all other big game releases (like right now for Where Winds Meet).

Even on my 1600p screen, with the window on full height, the Daily Deal is halfway cut off. You might as well argue every big game that gets featured on the front page is ruining some sale or another. Where are the clickbait articles for those games?

Saying Valve ruined the sale is weird to me. Are the Daily Deals from today ruined, because there's a banner for Where Winds Meet on the front page right now?

You can also see on SteamDB, that the game got a (relatively) sizable increase in players, following the sale.

I mean, it's supposed to have touchpads. If you don't need or want those, there's little reason to choose this controller over a more standard one.

Still grinding that World of Warcraft: Legion Remix. New phase started this week, along with the next raid. I've been playing so much the last couple of weeks, that it's definitely getting stale, but I've been saying the same thing for a few weeks already, and I'm still playing, albeit a bit less.

Game distribution platform Rokky has just released the results of a study it conducted with 306 senior managers of PC game developers (all from the US or UK)

Unsurprising that they find this, since that's what their business is about.

I basically skipped Legion back in the day, because of how ass the Legendary system was on launch, and never went back, so I never really did any of the raids.

I guess you mean getting knocked around by some orbs, which might instantly kill you because you fall off the platform? Stuff like that is basically the only thing that could be an issue.

From what I read in different comments, the final raid, Antorus, is supposed to have another boss, that could be a problem, Eonar.

Blizzard has actually changed one boss so far (Il'gynoth, where you have to use some blobs to blow up this big eye), although that was probably more because people deal too much damage and would regularly blow up the blobs on accident, the second they spawn, which was just annoying and extended the fight needlessly. Maybe they'll do more changes, since you can clear these raids daily for the time of the event.

Still grinding World of Warcraft: Legion Remix. Less raiding this week, I'm only clearing each raid twice a day, instead of three times, but did a couple more Mythic+ dungeons to knock out achievements.

The next phase will start in a few days, along with "new" quests, but more importantly another raid to farm every day. At that point, I'll probably only be running the raids on the highest difficulty, and skip all the others.

The Finals is rated Playable on Steam Deck and also uses Easy Anti Cheat, just like ARC Raiders.

The latest ProtonDB reports (~3h old) for ARC Raiders also say it works, but I don't know if that's for the playtest.

At this point, it would be weird if it doesn't work on Linux/Steam Deck.

The Copilot part for the Game Bar is a Widget, that you can independently disable.

Even then, from what is written in the thread, it's not like it actually does anything, unless you specifically use the Copilot feature for the Game Bar.

The only thing that might rub people the wrong way is that the widget is enabled by default.

The source is one single user on ResetEra, that doesn't post any proof.

Another user refuted the claims and posted logs, that show what gets sent, which seemingly doesn't include any Copilot data. The AI part only happens, when you actually ask a question to Copilot (duh). So the thread gets closed.

The article omits the second part of course, and everybody in this thread is just foaming at the mouth, because it's Microsoft, so it has to be true.

True, we've seen the exact thing with WoW and Overwatch, after the teams formed Unions. Both games were immediately shut down.

It's only a matter of time until the Diablo team forms a Union, which will of course also be the death knell for that franchise.

 

The game has been released, and the Steam store promptly shit itself. Took me 10 minutes to buy the game, the download speed is normal though (2GB download).
