52 of the Steam Frame’s 130 Certified Games Run Through Valve’s Android Layer

Valve's registry reveals that Lepton is an Android app with aliases lepton-stable and fauxdroid, translating from android to linux. Steam pages for Pavlov Shack, Table Space, and Action Hero show no PC build, indicating they are VR-only. Existing PC VR pages are adding Android depots, with some titles certified on Lepton. The porting process for Quest builds to Steam Frame is easier than rebuilding for PC VR. Valve is favoring the Android path for porting software to the Frame, despite initial intentions to bring PC VR library to standalone hardware. The release date for these titles is still unknown.

Resident Evil 2’s director believes Capcom has become ‘completely numb to how scary’ recent games have been and wants a ‘non-horror mode’

Players of horror games, particularly those with extensive experience, are becoming desensitized to fear, as noted by one player who found the latest Resident Evil installment lacking in genuine scares. Hideki Kamiya, director of Resident Evil 2, believes Capcom has become oblivious to horror elements in recent titles and admits to his own inability to handle scary content. He humorously suggested a lighter version of the franchise with non-scary modes. This raises questions about accessibility in horror gaming, as many players find it difficult to introduce friends to the genre due to its intense fear factor. Kamiya expressed a desire for a non-horror mode, highlighting a disconnect between developers and their audience. The player hopes Capcom will maintain the horror essence of the franchise, longing for a return to the intense fear experienced in Resident Evil 7.

‘I would love that but we’re cheap and poor’: Jeff Kaplan speeds through everything players should know about his upcoming cowboy survival game, The Legend of California

Jeff Kaplan discussed Kintsugiyama's upcoming game, The Legend of California, set in gold-rush-era California around 1849. It is an open-world survival multiplayer game that combines exploration and player interaction, categorized as a first-person shooter rather than a simulation or traditional MMO. Players can engage in activities typical of a cowboy's life, such as trading, fishing, mining, and ranch building. Private servers will allow for player-versus-environment settings, while public servers can host up to 100 players, featuring competition and combat, but not building destruction. Server resets will occur monthly, changing the locations of key points of interest while retaining player unlocks. Future enhancements may include holiday events, pets, and horse breeding, with the potential for a "Toys to Life" concept. The game will undergo at least two more alpha phases before early access.

I modded GTA 5 into a life-sim RPG with mining, foraging, a mini-economy, and the ability to fall asleep in the middle of the road

Grand Theft Auto 6 is expected to offer an immersive gaming experience that blurs the lines between the virtual world and reality, surpassing the immersive potential of Grand Theft Auto 5. A notable mod for GTA 5, called Roleplay Alone, transforms the game into a pseudo-life simulator, introducing quirky tasks for characters like Michael, Franklin, and Trevor, such as mining ores and distributing cannabis. In this mod, players can see Franklin mining with one hand while wearing a stylish jumper, and the gameplay includes humorous moments, like collapsing from exhaustion. Although the mod does not make GTA 5 fully immersive, it provides an entertaining diversion with mundane tasks, including fishing, which adds to the exploration and creativity within the game.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is expected to offer an immersive gaming experience that closely resembles reality. In contrast, Grand Theft Auto 5 seems less immersive by current standards. To enhance the experience, the Roleplay Alone mod was used, allowing players to engage in various activities like mining and cannabis distribution with characters such as Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. The mod introduces tasks that include using a two-handed mattock for mining, with an energy meter that adds realism. Players can assign blue-collar tasks to iconic characters, providing a unique and entertaining twist to the gameplay. Although the mining efforts yielded minimal in-game currency, the experience was enjoyable and highlighted the game's potential for exploration, including new activities like fishing.
