What are the benefits of playing with original game CDs?

Please don't take me in the wrong sense. I am not advocating for piracy. In fact I want to know about the advantages of playing with original game CDs so that I can attract gamers in my region, in India, to join my server.

Downloading windows version of steam games on a mac to copy over to a pc

I am sharing an internet connection with a few roommates and have a data cap. I would love to be able to use my MacBook to download games onto it, create Steam backups and install them on Windows. I have crossover, but Steam refuses to render the library pages and instead shows me a black screen. And the overall experience of using Steam in small mode is terrible. I can't uninstall installed games, adjust download queue order, and much more. Question from user Blaine at stackexchange. Answer: You have two options:. Game File . . . [More]

In Tears of the Kingdom, can you activate only certain devices attached to a vehicle?

In TOTK, I was doing the quest where you have to get the fella and his cart out of the hole. I attached the balloons and flame emitters to the cart, then added a fan. When I activated them, they all turned on at once, which meant the cart hadn’t gained enough height before the fan pushed it into the side of the hole. Is there a way I could have only activated the flame emitters first, and then the fan once it was at the desired height? Question from user Darren at gaming.stackexchange.com.

Where can I find a steering stick in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom?

I'm looking for a steering stick so I can save a hoverbike design to Autobuild. However, I haven't found any and don't know where I would encounter one. To be clear, I'm looking for an easily accessible steering stick just lying around. I don't need it as a zonai capsule, I just need 1 to build the bike for the first time. Question from user User 23415 at gaming.stackexchange.com. Answer: I found my first one on the Great Plateau, but a very easy one to get to is right outside Outskirt Stable, just to the South West . . . [More]

Are Distances in the Zelda Tears Depths Smaller than on the Overworld?

I have nothing to prove it but it does feel like distances in the depths, like between 2 lightroots, are smaller than if I was to walk between the 2 associated shrines on the overworld. Is there a thing like the Nether in Minecraft, where distances in this underworld are a fraction of the overworld? And if so, what is that fraction?

Hogwarts Legacy, What the hell was that?

Okay.. I was just running around doing some easy side quests (or so I thought) and saw a cute little house elf selling a shop.

In the Witcher 3, Will I always get the warning that quests may fail?

Before traveling to the Isle of Mists you get a warning specifying that some quest may fail if you go past this point. The first time I was about to cross this point I double checked that I had completed all the quests listed on the Wiki. After crossing I got a quest failed notification for Berengar's Blade (I had already discovered the quest before crossing). I loaded up an old save and completed the Berengar's Blade quest, and crossed again. I haven't gotten any quest failed notifications after crossing but I did get the war . . . [More]

What is the Concerned Citizen in The Witcher 3?

In Novigrad I keep finding sheets of paper with messsages involving the "Eternal Fire" and Novigrad's church. They seem to be written by someone who is against Magic, Witches, Mages and anything involving the Conjunction (pretty much like the talk you usually skip when starting the game). I remember I once found a corpse in a road and Geralt said: "It wasn't Nathaniel. S••t" . Nathaniel is Vegelbud's murderer that Geralt managed to track down and kill.
