https://www.dsogaming.com/news/days-gone-releases-on-the-pc-on-may-18th-first-pc-gameplay-trailer/
Sony has announced that Days Gone will be coming to the PC on May 18th. In order to celebrate this announcement, Sony also released a new trailer showcasing the PC version.
>> We'll see if it's a better port than Horizon.

To save people a click, here are the list of improvements:

- Ultrawide monitor support
- Unlocked framerate
- Increased LOD
- Foliage draw distances
- Graphical Customization
- Super Resolution Photo mode
- MxK supported
- Full controller support


Quite a nice list. Hopefully the fact that it's Unreal Engine means that they won't goof this one up.

Those with ASUS motherboards with X570/B550/A520 chipsets can download the new BIOS that fixes the USB problems:

Asus updates X570 and B550 mobos to fix AMD USB problems
https://www.pcgamer.com/asus-motherboard-amd-usb-bios-fix/
Asus has joined MSI by releasing BIOS updates for its X570 and B550 motherboards designed to fix the USB connectivity issues affecting AMD's latest Ryzen 5000 CPUs. Asus announced the updates by way of tweet, although there are no direct links to the motherboards that have received the updates.

Your best bet to see if there is an update for your particular motherboard is to head over to Asus's main support page and then search for your model in the big search box at the top of the page. You're looking for a BIOS update that includes the line: "Update AMD AM4 AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.2."

I am waiting till it gets out of Beta for my Dark Hero. I don't have any issues with USB devices yet so I am not in that much of a hurry.

So I did buy a 2TB western digital blue Sata SSD for gamepass.

Why am I dedicating an SSD to gamepass you may ask? Well you see, Windows Store is kinda shitty... A while ago, I was troubleshooting my laptop where I had Windows Store games stored it's second SSD. I eventually reinstalled windows on the primary SSD and I figured that it will be similar to steam where it will re-detect the downloaded games on the second SSD. But instead, not only did it refuse to detect the games installed on that SSD, it also refused to install any Windows Store games. I had to reformat the SSD and redownload all those Windows Store games and Steam games.

So yea, fuck Windows Store but gamepass is good enough and the SSD was cheap enough to where for now, this will be my solution for my PC. God I hope Gamepass does come to Steam one day.

Another reason to avoid the Windows Store.

The only reason I ever opened the Windows store was to get Minesweeper and Solitaire back since they are not preinstalled on Windows 10



Unreal Engine is getting robust as hell and I'm very curious to see more of and what comes of MetaHuman. Tempted to download and start playing around, myself.
