The reviews I've seen for Stalker so far look really good. Sounds like there are some bugs to work out, but overall the game is solid and lives up to the name and legacy. I'm anxious to try it out tonight, but I might wait a week or two until the bugs are squashed to really dive into it. Glad to hear its mostly playable though and isn't another Cyberpunk type release.

Eh, I'm hearing that the review builds had some pretty terrible bugs (and in Eurogamer's case, they're partly responsible for a delay on their review), but that the day one patch should hopefully fix a large amount of them.

Sooo... It's S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 alright, lol.

Remember, they're not bugs; they're anomalies in the Zone. XD

Apologies if this was posted when it was revealed, but I didn't know WotC opened a new studio with Drew Karpyshyn and James Ohlen. I'm way more interested in seeing how this turns out than anything new from Bioware.

This kinda snuck out and it sounds like it's pretty great:

No offense to down underers, but I cannot fucking stand GManLives' sneery voice. I hear the Indy game is great, though his opinions about it running well on his PC are... well, the sponsor on that video is nvidia, so imma take that with a boulder of salt. It needs DLSS3 and framegen and a 4080 to run at 60 FPS at 1440p with full fat RT, according to the official requirements. Not a great state for things, but curious considering it'll run at 60 FPS on both Xboxen. Anyway, game seems to be reviewing well elsewhere, too.

I agree on GMan's delivery (and some of his stock "jokes" are downright awful), and the paid promotion part was indeed cringe-worthy. But this still pretty much sold me on the game.
It looks like the next evolution of the style of game that Machinegames / Starbreeze started with Riddick, and I am all-in for that sort of thing. It's a nice middleground between straight-up FPS and Immersive Sim, and their games have always featured some stellar performances.
Guess I know what I'll be playing this weekend.

...or maybe not. Fuck this "Advanced Access" bullshit.
So I'll be playing from the 9th.

After 17 years of development, in a story very similar to it's sister game Dwarf Fortress, Caves of Qud 1.0 finally released yesterday.
I thought the idea of 1.0 was a myth in itself, but here it is!
Live and drink, fellow travelers.
