Not for me but I'm sure people will be interested.

It's a free upgrade, which is all I wanted to know.

Higher minimum requirements? I dunno, it's been too long since I played W3 to know differences. I suppose I might finally be getting around to doing 2nd playthrough at some point in the future. Also:

Fable reboot looks great

Regarding The Witcher increased system requirements, if the developers locked the new story DLC behind the new version, it is a rather user-unfriendly move. They are welcome to ship a new GPU, an SSD, and a few RAM sticks to all affected users, of course. Given how it went with previous "upgrade", I am somewhat sceptical of the performance.

For what it's worth, the developer left the pre-upgrade version available as a separate download on GOG (under the Extra panel) and as a beta branch on Steam, so that's something.

But I also somewhat dislike the series, despite playing it back to back, including the DLC, so neither purchasing nor replaying in any event.

Edit. Checked GOG, now there are 2 editions (Complete and not) and 2 editions (default and classic) under each. The not-Complete classic takes 10 files + separate DLC (3 files) to download. The Complete default takes 22 files. 1 file is up to 4GB.

Fortune's Run - Valve Removing Access - Steam News

Valve is removing my access from the game. I've made it 1$ and discounted it maximally. Goodbye everyone. -DZ

I hope that the developer will recover from it, providing that the information shared is accurate. Fortune's Run is definitely $1, though.

From the store page:

THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT FOR THIS GAME HAS BEEN STOLEN BY MY DOMESTIC ABUSER AND VALVE IS REFUSING TO TRANSFER THE RIGHTS BACK TO ME, THE SOLE DEVELOPER. NO ONE MAKES PROFITS FROM SALES ANYMORE, VALVE KEEPS EVERYTHING. BUY AT OWN PERIL. THERE WILL BE NO MORE UPDATES.

Discord has said that it has not yet been served a subpoena from Take-Two regarding Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks. On Friday, it was reported that the Rockstar parent company filed multiple subpoenas in a federal district court in order to obtain a wide range of user data from Discord and Microsoft relating to the leaks.

Some Discord users fear the scope of the subpoena is so broad it potentially affects all users of the Discord servers where the leaks circulated, which number in the hundreds of thousands.

Discord's marketing director, Ryan K. Rigney, has now responded, saying that the company has not yet received a subpoena from Take-Two, and that every request will be evaluated

"I can share an update on this: Discord has not yet been served with a subpoena from Take-Two," K. Rigney wrote on X on Monday. "When we do, we'll evaluate the validity and scope before responding."

It's worth noting that filing a subpoena is separate to actually serving a party with one, and that companies are not required to respond to a subpoena until they have been formally served it. The subpoena itself has been filed by Take-Two, and so it would seem Discord is simply yet to receive an actual formal service.

According to the filing, Take-Two is requesting data that includes registration emails, registration and last-login IP addresses, phone numbers, linked connections and associated device identifiers for "all user accounts that are/were members" of multiple Discord community servers, including Ødyssey.gg, "! Odyssey", and DarkViperAU from 1st June.

Well, here is to hope that Take-Two and its CEO will have the same privacy they wanted to "grant" to random Discord users.

Former Rockstar staff currently embroiled in a legal battle with the company over their firings last year have asked supporters not to boycott GTA 6, but instead to consider helping cover the costs of their fight against Rockstar by buying specially-designed union merchandise.

On a positive note, Well Dweller is releasing on 22 September.

The cat game, Fable, and the D&D action-adventure look quite nice as well.

Warlock game reminds me of Forspoken, but with far less dynamic gameplay.

Ravenloft (?) setting is a bit unfortunate, though.

Hm. I did buy Witcher 3, years ago, via GoG (no dlc's). I never got past the first hour or three. It's one of those games where I might like the actual exploration/gameplay parts, further in, but I couldn't get into early Mr. Manly Gruff for some reason (I normally am fine with angry/snark/machismo etc chrs but I also prefer when they don't talk a lot), or all the cutscenes etc. If/when I get bored of my current 7 Days fixation, might download the enhanced version and see if years later I can "get into" it this time. Probably not, but eh, if it's free, doesn't hurt to look.

Btw, is anyone else tired of the male "super gruff/low" gargling cotton and stones voice cliche in so many media now? I mean I loved Dean and Castiel (his actors natural voice is so far removed from Castiels, lol) in SPN, but that's what I mean. Or Geralt. Or Kliff in more recent Crimson Desert. Low/deeper voice, fine, but it's getting a bit silly/extreme/way overused now.
