Stop buying Steam games that are already on Game Pass — I found an extension that does the work for you

Gamers often face the issue of purchasing the same game multiple times across different platforms like Steam, GOG, Epic, Ubisoft, and EA, especially with services like PC Game Pass offering a rotating selection of games. During the Steam Summer Sale from June 26 to July 10, many gamers bought discounted titles only to find they were already available on Game Pass. To address this, a browser extension called Is It On Game Pass was created by Reddit user Orion_DEIL. This extension works with Firefox, Chrome, and Edge, displaying indicators on Steam game listings to show if a game is available on Game Pass, upcoming, or leaving the service. It also highlights better pricing options at GG.deals. Users can customize the indicators and set their region for a personalized experience. Installation is straightforward, and while an alternative exists through the PC Game Pass curator page on Steam, the extension offers more convenience.

Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition is an excellent, subtle remaster and my new Steam Deck game of the summer

Neverwinter Nights 2 has received a remaster that enhances the original 2006 RPG, making it appealing to both returning players and newcomers. The remaster is compatible with existing mods and fan campaigns, and it allows for play on the Steam Deck. The game maintains its real-time with pause combat mechanics and isometric camera view, with controls adapting well for gamepad use. Performance on the Steam Deck is impressive, achieving a consistent 60fps, though some areas may cause frame rate drops, and battery life is limited to under three hours. The Enhanced Edition features sharper textures and a user interface that scales to HD resolutions, while also being more efficient in CPU usage. It supports cloud saves and retains compatibility with old save files, allowing for a seamless transition for players. The remaster focuses on delivering a polished experience without aiming for flashy graphics, preserving the original's charm and quirks.
