Sir, this is patient gamers. The Alters came out like a week ago.

More likely lined up for Switch 2 launch. My local Best Buy barely carries anything for pc parts, and I don’t think mine is the only one.

No, it will be on steam day one. They had to figure out a new way to shoot their sales numbers in the foot.

Slay the Spire - a roguelike deckbuilder is a lot of fun.

I haven’t actually tried it, but Balatro has made a lot of waves recently and I imagine you could play that with only mouse.

Also, what kind of mouse are you using? If you’re still on a no thumb buttons mouse, you should definitely upgrade. If you only have 2 thumb buttons, as is most common, I’d recommend looking at something with more. My mouse has 3 thumb buttons, and two extra index finger buttons. and while some people like that mouse (i do) some don’t, so I can’t say whether you’d like it, but I will say the extra buttons have allowed me to set up a lot of games that would normally require a keyboard as well into a more mouse only friendly experience.

For slight further clarification on part 2, when checking for the GPU in device manager, it will be listed under “Display adapters”.

It certainly performed better than Concord.

Ok, but what didn’t perform better than Concord? I don’t know if that’s a legit metric to use.

I would agree with that, but I’d also be surprised if Prey was a financial gem for the executives.

Last of us part 2 is a great story as well. It gets a lot of hate online, but a LOT of that hate is cuz the game not only has lesbian characters, but it also has a trans character, and a woman with muscles character. And that’s just way too much woke apparently.

Yes, 2 had a lot of re-used locations. Some of them did make sense, as the story was almost entirely set within a single city, so certain locations are bound to pop up multiple times, especially as the game takes place over a decade or so.

But the real reason, 2 was developed and rushed out the door in like a year or something? It was a ridiculously short amount of time to develop a sequel to a game as big as DA:O. Unsurprisingly, this led to a LOT of re used assets and locations.

But though it obviously had failings, I, like some others, would probably put DA2 as the high point for the series telling really character driven stories with the most compelling cast of characters.

Honestly, fair criticism, as it is still a $60 game and in my old timer’s brain that means everything should be unlockable through gameplay. Unfortunately, that’s just not how the market seems to work anymore, so I’ll just be glad their extra monetization is only limited to cosmetics and not gameplay stuff as well.

On the upshot, that season pass and the DLC stuff is all cosmetic only. All gameplay additions will be free for all.

I mean, it kinda is
