That sux. I wish they were transferable I'd beg for them. I could buy a lot of years of GP with all those points :messenger_beaming:

On a positive note, if they ever do open them up to your region you have a lot of free shit coming your way.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
The PSN March sale's been pretty good to me. Was able to get Catherine: Full Body and a bunch of weeb shit on the cheap.

Speaking of which... I probably have time to play through Catherine before RE3 and FFVII hit. Maybe I should do that this weekend.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
There are tons of free games being given away on itch.io. Unfortunately there isn't a very good way to aggregate them all into one place, but this link should catch most of them that are -100%.


Pokemon Go has a deal in response to the Coronavirus: get 30 incense (Pokemon come to you, instead of you walking around) or 100 Pokeballs (so you don't have to visit pokestops) for 1 Pokecoin each.

Ah man I played Cities Skylines to death on Xbox. I bet it’s even better on PC.

Not played much of it myself since these types of games are a bit too much of a time sink for me these days (and I can get unhealthily addicted to them) but people who play it seem to love it.

The mods available make it an entirely different beast:

They are showing their age, but that doesn’t bother me in the slightest, though. The devs did a great job updating the UI and controls for console. It takes a bit of initial time, but once the controls become second nature, they’re great. The games can be old school hard. As in, they don’t hold your hand and lead you by the nose. Expect to Google stuff a lot. I enjoyed them immensely.

I loved playing them on Switch, but KEEP IN MIND: Both games had a severe bug where the game could crash to “home menu” with an error code and the result is you could lose your save game.

I worked out a way to prevent this by only saving when there was not much action on screen and not immediately after I had been using inventory or chests/barrels. I think it had something to do with inventory lists populating in the background while you are trying to save. Also, keeping multiple save files and saving often.

I sent a bug report to Beamdog and they said they are on it. Not sure if that was an automated response or not. That was months ago, but last time I played, the bug hadn’t been patched out.

It’s up to you.

Like I said, I’m not sure what the current situation is. They may have patched it by now.

If you follow what I said (save often/keep multiple save files/only save after exiting your inventory and waiting 3-5 seconds), then the bug is a rare occurrence and if it does occur, you’ve hopefully got a previous save file from a few minutes before (it only deletes your latest save during the bug) and you won’t lose too much progress.

Either way, I hope you get to enjoy them at some point.

That was great to know before I get stuck in, cheers :)
