I don’t remember what it was like with the Deck but Index and now Steam Controller both went straight to shops to pick up without option for home delivery. Is this not something that is usually done in your conuntry? I can only wonder why Valve would prefer to leave the packages outside over them being in a safe place if it’s available
If you’re wondering if I’m insane or something, just reply to the comment I made since I’m dyslexic and it might just be that I wrote it weird. Skipping letters, words or even sentences is very regular for me.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•[Steam controller] Anyone hear back after the May 8th reservation blitz?English
3·2 months agoI was there pressing the button when reservations started. Got the email on May 15th and it was shipped on 18th. It’s arriving today and I’m quite certain that it’s in a pile of other packages in a store near me.
Edit. This edit was typed with the “New! Steam Controller”.

AI Generated Content Disclosure
The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:
During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Reviewers giving high scores to poorly optimised games really grinds my gearsEnglish
2·1 year agoI don’t even see the optimising problem as bad probably because I’m used to it. Evil Within for example ran terribly on launch but since then I have upgraded my setup and played through it. Checking the benchmarks just is something you should do on PC. Reviewers usually are pretty out of touch with rest of the world or average gamer just doesn’t care about drops and sub 30 framerates.
I feel like a worse problem currently is how games are made with TAA in mind or with forced TAA so you just can’t make them look good even with time and more powerful hardware. It’s either blurry mess with artifacts thrown in or something that doesn’t even look like 1080p on 4K resolution.

6·1 year agoSure it wastes your resources but the devs don’t need to do much so it speeds up their workflow. You are a sacrifice they are willing to make.
My favorite overall is Black Flag but it’s not really an AC game so Brotherhood. AC really died with Desmond
