Every few years I give it a try, but I can’t really feel it.



Changing the language of “Hogwarts Legacy”
The game started in German, and I couldn't change the language. Multiple sites told me how to change the language of the Epic Games Launcher instead. WTF?? Here's the solution: Find `GameUserSettings.ini` in `%localappdata%\HogwartsLegacy\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor` and add these two lines: ``` [Internationalization] Language=en-US ``` Now the game is in English. **CAREFUL:** The game is overwriting this file. You need to do this every time you want to play the game or set the file to read-only. Which prevents you from changing some settings.

Oh, I think I put GoW on the wishlist because of the few hundred hours of “The Outer Worlds.”


“Horizon Forbidden West™ Complete Edition” or “God of War”?
Choice paralysis can hit you even if it's only about two things. In this case it's about two games that you will play for hundreds of hours. I had “Horizon Zero Dawn” in my library for 3 years before I finally started a serious game and finished it this year. Currently replaying it again. The successor is now on sale on Steam: €36. I put “God of War” on my Steam wishlist after finishing “Horizon Zero Dawn” for the first time. I was looking for more open-world games of this kind, and it got recommended by fans. It's now on sale on Steam: €20. I can't play them both at the same time. And after playing one of them for 100 to 200 hours, the other will be on sale again. What would you do? GoW, so that you don't stick in the same world for too long and have some variety in your escapism? Or HFW to see how the story continues without wasting any more time? Would HFW disappoint me on my GTX 1070? Compared to HZD?

I just realized that “another operating system” can mean so many things that aren’t Windows.

We need to be patient and wait until some crazy people defile their Steam Machine for Internet points.


I found an answer on the Steam Machine page: Yes, Steam Machine is optimized for gaming, but it’s still your PC. Install your own apps, or even another operating system. Who are we to tell you how to use your computer?


Was it confirmed that you can install Windows? The video said software, I don’t remember that you could install any operating system. It comes with an Arch Linux.
