Putting some of the Steam game keys that I need to give away before they expire in the Subathon thread (with some characters removed with a hint to them, to avoid robots grabbing them) - feel free to grab if any you want, will add in a few batches over the day

I personally use Wallpaper Engine from Steam, it has integration with Steam Workshop and itās filled with thousands of community wallpapers to fit different sizes of displays as well. I currently am using several animated Overwatch wallpapers myself, but I like to change them depending on my mood and season.
I highly suggest to check it out and itās not that expensive, or you can always wait for a sale!

Yeah, but this one is free and I can use any video or gif I want like Wallpaper Engine too.

For me the steam workshop integration was what made me go for it, t hereās just so much very well made stuff available, it made the purchase worth it for me. If itās mostly for using your own content then I can understand though.

I guess the reason it doesnāt seem better for me is the fact Steam isnāt a factor for me, as I only use it on rare occasions.
Iām surprised windows doesnāt have anything built into settings for live wallpapers. They should work on that while theyāre trying to win back good will.

Crimson Desert definitely can be frustrating, Iām seeing what Jesse meant.
First area Iām free to explore, the blacksmith wants two iron ore, I go mine it but despite it saying hand it over you canāt give it to him - it turns out the map marker is for his assistant in another village you have to give it to, despite him never mentioning the assistant.
I didnāt notice the map marker until I looked online - I was ready to kill the bloody blacksmith by then grr

Also the fact you bump everyone by touching them even lightly is so fucking annoying - I pet a dog then go to move away but it bumps them and they yelp and growl at me, or I piss off someone Iāve just helped.
Equally there seems to be no button re-mapping for controllers (only keyboards), which is frustrating as every other game uses the āselectā button to open the map but on this game it changes the view (which could probably have been a menu option rather than a button) and X does way too much.
It also explains some stuff in way too much detail, then fuck all in other bits - arm wrestling it says mash X, forgetting to mention every 3/5 seconds you have to do some QTE using the A button, which is a surprise the first time it happens.
Weirdly despite being frustrating, just like Jesse Iām enjoying it (despite wanting to break my controller).

Havenāt cared too much about MS putting games on Playstation since the first announcement, but with Sony withdrawing from PC, partly because they consider that platform is competence, honestly im hoping to see some Valve/MS stuff being only on PC/Xbox, at the end of the day, i think there are reasons they could consider Sony and Playstation competence too

BTW added more Steam keys to the posts in the Subathon thread - if anyone has a PC, enjoy - thereās a wide range from WWE 2K25, The Thaumaturge, Tomb Raider remastered series, Evil West to Destiny 2 collection and more, assuming theyāve not been claimed already

I see that Game Pass removed Mad Streets.
This was a game I used to play quite a lot whenever my nephews came over. To my surprise and disappointment itās not available for purchase in the store. So itās justā¦gone? Or was this never available for purchase in the store anyway, forā¦.reasons?

I can see it in the store still in the UK at least:
Not here in The Netherlands, damn. And I donāt dare using the DNS trick anymore since MS can ban people for that now. Damn.

That normally just means itās a licensing issue specific to a country / region (UK now separate to the EU one since the foolish Brexit fuck up) - hopefully itāll be back soon once sorted
Mario Movie was great, loved it.

So when adding a new wall paper for Lively Wallpaper I noticed that it had a youtube link at the bottom, so I decided to link the DayOne Subathon and while it was a little wonky to get it started. It worked well enough, it responses a little bad because were actually clicking the screen with extra functions.
But I was able to login, chat and even pause the stream after much clicking of course, right now I have the Helix video as my background.

Didnāt want to make another thread for this, as itās another employee airing out their grievances, I think he was someone that said he would have more to share when he was able to on LinkedIn.
