Picked up 3 Switch games. Pocky & Rocky Reshrined (used) Wild Guns Reloaded (Used) and The Ninja Saviors Return of the Warriors (new). They are just remakes of old games from the 90's. A few videos I watched on YouTube called them pixel art games. They do look pretty nice on the Switch. I knew about Pocky and Rocky from years ago thanks to SNESDrunk on YouTube. I didn't even know there was a remake of that game. I have ROMs of the first Pocky & Rocky and it's sequel for the SNES. I couldn't pass up a remake and a Switch port as well. I also have the Pocky and Rocky game on the GBA also a ROM. I have an Everdrive for the GBA loaded with ROMs. 3 more games added to the collection.
 
Some really good deals right now and I can't decide:

* Rainbow Six Siege
* Rainbow Six Extraction
* Dead By Daylight

I really can't decide...
 
Settings>Friends & Chat>Chat>Remember my open chats? Changing it so that not sign you in when the client starts might also work.
It didn't work. It's weird because I disabled the friends & chat window in the previous version of Steam but since the update it opens a window anyway.

I don't like the way Steam looks now. It looks stupid.
Vermintide 2 is fucking great. You don't need to know shit about Warhammer to enjoy it.
I have a bunch of Warhammer games and I don't know jack shit about Warhammer other than some small details.

Will Jade Empire even work on Windows 10?

I remember a while back someone in a thread on here was looking for a good city building management game. I can't remember if it was this thread or another. But if you want a good city building game that has more management to it then Theo Town is a good one. I bought it last night. It reminds me of the older Sim City games like Sim City Sim City 2000 3000 and 4. It has more of a pixelated retro look. It's doesn't look as good as Sim City 2013 or Cities Skylines. As I said in previous posts about this Cities Skyline is kind of weak on the management part of a city builder. It's ok if you just want to build a city especially a nice looking one. But Theo Town has almost Sim City levels of management. It's an indie game so it's not that deep. But it will probably run on less powerful computers. You can also just get Sim City 4 as I said before.

I played the Broken Roads demo and liked what I saw. It's in the style of the old Fallouts but set in Australia, and with an interesting morality system. Definitely keeping an eye out for that one when it comes out. In the meantime, I'll just chug through Morrowind.

I didn't even know about that game. It looks really good and interesting. Fallout had some Mad Max inspiration as well. It looks like Wasteland 2 as well. I have Atom RPG and Under Rail on Steam as well. So any new Fallout like games are good.
 
New Aliens game out tomorrow. Looks interesting...
Reviews are pretty positive that it create the enviroment and feel of the aliens movie but still has some bugs that kind of drag it down at points.

What I didn't expect is that it has some Darkest Dungeon elements where you have to manage your marines stress vs the longer they are out the more exp they get along with the longer the game goes on the harder it gets.
 
I started playing the Aliens: Dark Descent game. It's alright, but definitely a bit rough around the edges. Lot of texture pop-in, incorrect subtitles, <string text missing>, that sort of stuff.

I did find an interesting glitch by accident. In the first level, down in the mines, there's a door that will give you a warning that you're about to fight a big bitch. When the game gives these warnings, it makes an autosave. I had a sentry ordered to be placed down, but not started yet, when I reloaded that autosave. The holographic/order sentry was still there, but I could order a new one to be placed, and it didn't remove the old one, which could still be activated, letting me spawn a second sentry out of thin air. I haven't experimented with it much (maybe you could do the same thing before resting saves?), but maybe this'll help anyone else playing who gets stuck on some parts.
