I am a few hours in to this game, and I am really, really surprised by it. Everything from the graphics to the story to the characters and writing has had me smiling from ear to ear the whole time. It feels like they took the best parts of Uncharted, Mass Effect and the GotG movies and put them all together. The combat itself is servicable but not amazing, but I can overlook that because I am having so much fun with everything else.
I may even like the Guardians from the game more than their MCU counterparts. Especially Peter – I remember really disliking him in all of the promotional material, but he really grew on me. At first, I had my reservations about not being able to play as every Guardian, but the more I play, the more I think that was probably a good call. While every character has their time in the spotlight, Peter is the clear protagonist and if you could choose to be Rocket or Gamora for a majority of the time then you would kind of lose that feeling.

Hi all, wanted to post this mod news because I found it quite interesting. In perhaps a first, a modder/team has been able to create a mod executable which is able to combine the gameplay of two very mechanically different games.
I think this was first announced in March 2021 but a lot of people were skeptical since it seemed like an ambitious plan and the developers were radio silent for quite a while. But today they’ve released what I assume is merely an early version of it. And allegedly it works, although it’s not perfect; the numbers are quite flubbed and the assets aren’t all there for an accurate translation.
I was wondering if this is the first instance of such a mod, and what your thoughts are on it.
I don’t mean that to be a blanket statement that applies in every scenario, or to suggest that all other displays are inferior. I just mean that, personally, my first experience with HDR was on a Sony X800G that clocks in around 400 cd/m² (formerly, nits), and I wasted hours of my life fighting with the settings to figure out why HDR in so many games looked barely different than SDR, or even objectively worse in some cases. Even though I bought this TV strictly for its HDR capabilities, I ended up just reverting to SDR for everything.
Until last weekend, when on a whim I started researching what HDR actually is, and what it was about my TV that was so underwhelming. If you don’t know, HDR is all about producing brighter highlights and deeper blacks while preserving detail in the entire scene. To do that, you need a display that can make individual areas of the screen really bright, while keeping other parts almost totally black. And you simply can’t do that …
Here are the fresh batch of games from Prime Gaming.
For anyone unfamiliar with how this works. If you have Amazon Prime and link your Twitch account, you can go to https://gaming.amazon.com login, and click “Games with Prime”. They also provide bonus loot to a number of F2P titles which I’ve not listed here.
Where I’ve not specified a launcher, that game will be available via Amazon’s own game client, download available here
Hi r/pcgaming!
My name is Martin Svoboda and I am the sole developer of a new open-world survival game inside the human body called INSIDERS!
This is my 3rd game now, and I have learnt much from the previous ones, which were the AstronTycoon Duo. Before I go deeper, I would like to thank the community management team and the players who have helped me playtest Insiders. It is my ultimate goal to provide an in-depth exploration experience of the mellow yet intense microscopic world of the human body. Here is a short summary and the trailer for the game:
The cancer rate of human beings in this era has increased dramatically, and the only cure is inside our bodies. The technology to shrink certain objects and human beings into microscopic size has recently been discovered, and you and your ship have been shrunk to find a potential cure inside one severely ill patient with multiple diseases. Since the technology is new, there is no way to unshrink you back so this mission is a one-way …
