Kolanaki, rok temu do games w Has anyone else noticed that Steam no longer requires self-updates that restart the client?

I still see it semi-frequently, but more because I don’t use my computer as much and it’s usually off. So after a week of non-use, Steam has often accumulated enough updates to necessitate a reboot.

It is still not nearly as frequent as new Nvidia drivers needing a reboot, though.

I don’t think I’ve seen that update window in years.

I’ve seen the same thing. Seems like the new behavior is to just let me login, play, and it will get what it needs in the background and automatically update on next launch.

Makes sense not to bother me to update a 0.1 release change after launch (unless it’s urgent) when I just want to play Tetris.

Isn’t this the same behavior web browsers use? Background download and update on next launch?

Not complaining, I prefer this update cycle as default.

yeah, it updates at every launch basically, like Spotify app

This was a fun one. Never finished it, but really liked watching the partner play.

Factorio. Probably for the next month or so as well.

Personally I check steam’s popular new releases and upcoming releases lists to stay up to date

Found this, can’t vouch for its accuracy but it has an .ics version: game-releases.com/calendar/

Appreciate it, though this one to seems to be a little short on upcoming games.

Yes! There’s opencritic.com/calendar which is available in ics format. It usually only covers big releases though, not many indies on the list.

Sunny, rok temu

Appreciate the find, but doesn’t seem to be very up to date. Hasn’t included either Stalker 2 or Path of Exile 2, which both launch during November.

anyone else getting 403 for the feed itself?

I just tried and got it. Might be worth shooting them an email.

I suspect there should be something using the IGDB API, if not it ought to be possible to make one. I found this (I didn’t try it) but it’s not quite what you want: github.com/omoosey/video-game-calendar

mox, rok temu do games w Is there a video-game .ics/calendar that I can subscribe to keep up with recent releases?

If you don’t find one, you might consider looking for RSS (or Atom) feeds that list new game announcements or reviews. Maybe one of these, for example.

Ok…this thread has Sunny, Chris, and Mox…I cannot be the only person getting pro-wrestling vibes from this post.

Grangle1, rok temu do games w Sonic x Shadow Generations | Review Thread

The original got overshadowed (pun not intended) by high profile releases such as SKYRIM and a new Mario Kart at the time and was followed up by the very mid Sonic Lost World, so here’s hoping the good reviews help people decide to pick this up and actually see 3D Sonic done right.
