Steam is now rolling out age verification in Australia for R18+ games, and the method Valve chose is already getting a lot of people annoyed.
The system asks users to add a credit card to prove they’re 18 or older and people don’t have a credit card and normally use debit cards instead.
Certain debit cards actually work and others not depending on the bank, which makes the whole system even more confusing.
And there’s another issue, people say they can be blocked from even viewing the store page for games they already own, including games like Cyberpunk 2077.
I understand that Valve need to follow Australia’s new age-verification rules, but making a credit card the main way to prove you’re an adult when for some people their account is over 18 years old feels unnecessary
@FNAFHypeFan2 Cannot count Galaxy as I haven't watched it but movie 3 missed alot of SA2 content.
- No GUN truck.
- No pyramid base.
- ARK was a midget.
- No Maaaaaaria! scene.
- Rooftop Run/Tokyo instead of City Escape/Radical Higway.
But hey here's 3 lame latina jokes instead.
@MrSillySunshine I played Ristar a month ago and was surprised at how good it was.
I still think the devs were on something when they made the 4th world though.
I also want to know how they got away with stealing so much SoundFX from Sonic. The final boss was Carnival Night zone lol.
@PersonthePerso2 ...and then Superstars removes them and Sonic proceeds to become the most dogshit character in that game.
Sonic needs them they are integral to his kit.
They also buff weaker stages such as Marble zone(Flame shield buff).
@InfiniteNights_ This game is just very mechanical, high skill ceiling. Once you get past that frustrating barrier it becomes a decent game.
I beat this act in 5 mins. Skyscraper Scamper is the level that took my skill up to KO the rest of the game.
@strung_cheese If I were to introduce someone to Crash I would tell them to download a PS1 emulator and play the PS1 versions first. The PS4 versions are artificially harder via poorer physics, random plat relics not needed for Crash 1 & 2 + Stormy Ascent shouldn't even exist.
Fuck VV devs.
@JameArtz03 We need a team of ppl to rip the assets to The Textures Resource website. Nobody has done it atm.
Then you can copy the assets and make a stage mod for Sonic Mania.
SA1, SA2, Heroes, Secret Rings, Colors stages can all be modded into Mania if anyone wants a go at it.
@AdriWindGB This is the only Sonic game where the backgrounds are intentionally blurry. I don't get why they did that but it makes the levels look souless. They have also added a layer in front of it where random objects (ie cactus, sand hills) are spammed and it just looks tacky.
If you want to see Marble zone kick ass.
- Download a Marble zone mod for Sonic Mania.
- Obtain a flame shield.
- Its now a solid 8/10 level.
#MarbleZone
@Proto_arts I swear everyone shows off Sand Sanctuary and maybe a Sky Temple - cause they're the only 2 decent stages in the game.
That guy has been playing the game for 100+hrs he's gonna make it look good.
