Any change to the site = shit. The next time a mod gets removed, people are going to scream again, that this would never have happened with the old owner.
Probably, but the other points still stand.
BTW this is about UNIX, not Windows. Also, only about driver optimizations, security updates would still get released for a few years, if the past is anything to go by.
I've always wondered, and guessed it comes from consoles or maybe a Japanese thing, why is it called Title Update? What other kinds of updates do games get?
Although not in this case, often it would also be clarified that it was a free update. Do people pay for game updates? For me an update is the same as a patch, mainly fixes, sometimes new stuff. Then you have expansions/add-ons or DLC that are mostly paid.
I know you said allegedly, but the article explicitly says that a policy like that doesn't exist, and the only thing that would happen (if the game is cheaper somewhere else) is that the game wouldn't be advertised during a sale.
When pushed on official policy in his deposition, DJ Powers claims that the ‘if else’ is normally this: “If we get to a situation where a partner is telling us that the price needs to be lower on other platforms than it is on Steam, then we will typically choose not to run curated marketing during times where that game is being discounted.”
He also notes that suggesting a game can’t be on the store at all - if not at parity - is “not our typical process”. Which is semi-believable, because a) it’s not in the contract and b) nobody at Valve has time to check and enforce that. But has it happened before, multiple times? Sure. And Wolfire’s lawyers will use that in the case.
In justifying the $450 price of the Switch 2, Nintendo executives predictably pointed to the system's upgraded hardware specs, as well as new features like GameChat and mouse mode.
GameChat is truly a revolution. We haven't used voice chat for games for like 25 years, definitely not.
Nobody asked for the mouse mode, it will probably be used by two games, made by Nintendo themselves, then just be forgotten.
While this is classic Valve non-communication, apparently the devs were hacking or reverse-engineering some closed source stuff, that Valve might not have agreed with.

Just so we are clear on how the mod works on our side, there is no leaked code involved. We're using a build from 2020 that has security exploits and a hacked dedicated server to be able to even play online while working on it internally.
The mod cannot be released in this state
This is all just some third-party information, I have no idea about this and don't really care about Counter-Strike.
The Steam Awards are mostly just "what's my favorite game" or "which game have I heard of" for all categories. It doesn't matter if the game fits or not. For Wukong it's additionally "where was the game made", since it's one of the few high profile Chinese games (outside of China) and Steam has a lot of Chinese users.
I watched the trailer and the evolution they're going with is apparently not making an RTS anymore, but an Action Roguelike. If that's the kind of evolution we're talking about, I feel we've already stuff in a similar vein (dunno specifically about roguelike though).
You'll never catch me using filters like these voluntarily. Inject those crisp pixels straight into my vein.
Unless you're making some Nvidia = green joke, that's some setting on your side. The crashes might be as well, some unstable overclock or PSU issue.
The main things that's been plaguing the Nvidia drivers is black screens, which are seemingly finally getting under control for the last two driver releases, along with Windows Updates.
Value of the 50-series is definitely shit though.
