The bottom of the page there is a countdown that will expire at midnight Eastern standard Time tonight. This company claims to be in Boston. They've received federal grants. I've done a small amount of digging, but it would be entirely within valves resources to set up such a company. They have a LinkedIn, but it doesn't really seem like anyone really works there? It seems like a viral marketing campaign. There was a Reddit thread. A while back. Some people noticed classes in the HTML that referenced other half-lifey things. But, some people in that thread shut it down as nothing out of the ordinary. Then, there have been recent leaks with regard to a new game being developed. Someone found a resume suggesting that a person had done voice-over work for an unreleased project with Valve in 2023. There was also a leak of some files with .hlx file types, and I guess prior to the half-life alyx release some .hla files leaked. In the .hlx file leak, I guess there was found references to things like the EV suit. Here's a YouTube [video](https://youtu.be/36gF6eiCsqU) that touches on all of this.

Biggest thing is this: >We’ve eliminated the requirement that disputes be resolved by individual arbitration. As always, we encourage you to contact Steam Support when you have any issues, as that will nearly always be the best way to reach a solution. But if that doesn’t work, the updated SSA now provides that any disputes are to go forward in court instead of arbitration. We’ve also removed the class action waiver, as well as the cost and fee-shifting provisions, that were in prior versions of the SSA.

Not long to go now :) Frostpunk 1 was one of my all time favorite games and I think everyone should check out the sequel. It's been getting stellar reviews.

Early yet, but has potential I think. https://youtu.be/K4svlfnGIzM?si=jw8KPX7_OpOvW1VT

What are people's recommendation for their favourite FPS single player campaigns that you still enjoy playing a couple of levels once in awhile? No multiplayer suggestions. My all time one is Medal Of Honor 2010 reboot. I don't play through it every time but I have a couple of favourite levels.

There is a cool new rover in Planet Crafter. This game just keeps getting better. They also announced a new DLC! https://youtu.be/NOJRp3wV9_8?si=W0m1jX4Tul4piacp

Playing #blackmythwukong since yesterday. Wonderful game. Too bad they placed horribly difficult boss at the very start. I suggest looking into guides about defeating it. On the tehnical note, it's one of the very few games where FSR frame gen does a pretty good job without input lag causing too many issues #gaming #games #pcgaming

These just build and no real goal type games are on the rise. Here is a house building one with retro graphics. Anybody else play this one? https://youtu.be/mZH7XGK-C_o

Reviewed at 42 hours. Played it for another 80 hours (in the past two weeks) In my mind, their actions speak louder than words, and this game is worth it.

Immediately what comes to mind for me is the [The Someguy Series](https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/48925) for Fallout New Vegas. It's a bundle of voiced quest mods that mesh well with the base game. There's also [House of Horrors](https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/57172) for Fallout New Vegas that I recall being pretty good. I played it probably about eight years ago so I don't recall much about it though. I've also heard a lot of good things about [Stardew Valley Expanded](https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753). --- What about you? What's your favorite quest mod? I'd also be curious to hear people's thoughts on content targeting a specific theme. For example mods that are good with horror or comedy. They might not fit in well with the base game but they can be fun.

The games and their results Hades 2 - Result: No data loss. Still Wakes The Deep - Result: Absolutely fuckaw. Dread Delusion - Result: Getting very bored of entering my Windows password. Cyberpunk 2077 - Result: Regret starting this pointless experiment. Alien: Isolation - Result: Just glad this is over, to be honest.
