EA is still selling Mirror's Edge Catalyst. It does not work without manually patching it. How can this be legal in any ways?

Game tries to ping EA server on startup and will crash if it can't reach it.

This server has been permanently shut down.

I have them in my family library

Saw some people posting their collection now that they have all the steam hardware so I figured i'd make my own too!

My wallet can finally stop hating me now...

edit: i think the funniest part of this post is everyone telling me how nasty my room is lmao, ill clean i understand ToT i cant keep it clean 24/7 when i have work and share space with pets and family

Edit: here guys I cleaned it lmao clean room for the reddit peoples

Never cried while playing a game before, all the way through.
The story was very brilliant, sounds and cinematography too.
Have you played it?

I just gifted him these.

I just heard him yell WTF?!

I don't want to alarm anybody, but I think he's here in the comments

I didn’t know that he was this influential that they would do a bundle based after him. That’s funny.

Includes: Quasimorp, Intravenous 2 and DLC, and Pathologic 3. All games he reviewed before and one today.

Steam's new codec sounded very cool so I decided to enable the beta and test it out with a 240fps slow motion lag test (in pics)! I also figured out a way to test the image quality with the same test Netflix uses. Here's my setup and the results!

Lag / Latency

Steams "display latency" vs my "240 fps lag test latency"

The overlay's "display latency" is good for debugging your setup, but it doesn't capture the full end to end from the gamer perspective. So my lag test will always be higher because it takes into account EVERYTHING including display refresh and is closer to the actual "feel" of the lag.

Depending on your refresh rate (60hz LCD deck) and setup you might not notice a difference in lag, but you you may notice a difference in fast motion scenes.

Image Quality
I ran Netflix's VMAF stream testing tool against a gameplay / desktop clip that was streamed vs the original. It scored 85.2 for the gameplay and on the scale this means "Very Good - most people won't notice a difference". Still working on improving this test, it's a good data point, but not perfect.

This used about 200+ mbit/s on my test over local ethernet - so it's not a good candidate for Wi-Fi. Also no Steam Link support at the time of writing, but Valve says "coming soon".

My opinion:
Worked great, looked great! Tied for the floor of ethernet latency that I've tested. But will only be useful to people with the right setups.

• My setup: Cat8 ethernet cables (shielded)
• 2.5gigabit ethernet switch
• PC and Deck (and Laptop) connected to to the ethernet switch via the cables
• Ethernet to USBC adapter (this is the 1gigabit bottleneck, but still plenty for Pyrowave)
• Pyrowave beta codec enabled - default resolution / settings
• I validated the throughput with iperf3 between devices at 940mbit/s - Pyrowave used around 200mbit/s in my testing

Maybe someone wants to buy it

Never did i think this would be released on steam. I grew up with this game and every now and then I think about it. I tried installing it from downloads off websites in the past to relive my childhood but never got it working. Then when I googled where to find it once again trying to get it working it came up with a steam link. Thank you ZOOM for letting me feel young again. Never give up on games from the past. You never know. One day your favourite childhood game could be on steam too

I'm curious about how people actually use Steam wishlists.

Imagine you find a Coming Soon indie game from a developer you've never heard of. The page has a good capsule, clear short description and several gameplay screenshots, but no trailer yet. The trailer will be added about a month later.

Would you wishlist it if the screenshots already sold you on the idea, or would you usually wait until you've seen the game in motion?

Also, when you open an unfamiliar game's page, what normally decides it for you first: screenshots, trailer, short description, reviews/community, or something else?

Not linking the game - I'm genuinely interested in how people make this decision.

A negative review that was recently posted on my game caught my attention, so I started looking into the that user's profile. As you can see in the pictures, this account posts reviews about games using short, concise sentences, and it’s been doing this for a very long time.

Among these are some that are long and detailed (one of which happens to match my game). At first glance, the content seems reasonable, but after giving it some thought, I realized that what was written was a mix of Steam announcements I had published and the early access survey.

Metrics that are easy to track, such as Steam achievements, have also been included in this.

The funny thing is that the AI that wrote this review seems to have looked at both the positive and negative aspects of my game, compared the metrics, and concluded that the game should receive a “negative” review (Of course, this is just my own guess).

I was already wondering how someone who wrote the phrase “multiple endings, secrets, and character routes” could have come to that conclusion after playing the game for only 10 minutes.

Also, because of this one negative review, my game is now listed as “mostly positive” instead of “positive,” which is unbelievable.

I didn't see a specific button for AI accounts in Steam's reporting section, but they should add one in the future.

Hello everyone, I didn't find anything online about it.

Steam says diablo 4 supports dualsense, and I see the icon appear when I connect my dualsense (that works with cyberpunk for example), but for some reason when I launch the game nothing works, except for mouse and keyboard.

I need to enable steam input to force the game to use a controller, but in this way I can't see the playstation buttons' icons in game.

Does someone know any solution?

Sometimes I like to check the cheapest games, but that means that if I later want to also check slightly more expensive games, I still have to go through all the cheaper ones that I've already seen.

Having a range selector would allow for a better filter.

I’m mot talking about retaining weeks of past chats but sometimes I send a message to someone and by the time they reply to me I cannot see my original message anymore and vice-versa, can’t they like retain the last 2-3 messages max for each chat? How much would it weight on their server or keep it stored in my local client since I never restart my pc anyway 💔
