I thought about buying it, before being told on the product page that I already have it. Don't even remotely remember buying it, but it's apparently been there well over a year.
-
Yeaaaaaaaaaaah. No. Now that the timeframe for that has passed, he will be suggesting people watch Sharknado for the true prophecy of the future.
-
Dammit, I should have quoted for posterity. (I also had to look up who Keith David was *hides*)
-
Wow, Keith David is playing all those characters?
-
Ice, it's being broken.

In hindsight I would not have even fought that dragon, activating the whole dragon plot just adds annoying distractions everywhere while you try to play the fun parts of the game.

Yeah, the level scaling was done reasonably well - which is to say, it was disguised. There are two types of scaling employed: some creature types had both a minimum and maximum level that they wouldn't scale past, but do scale at and around the levels you're reasonably likely to encounter them - this includes all bosses I think. Other creatures have multiple versions, think Heroes of Might and Magic, where as you get to the higher levels, they get replaced by upgraded versions (though it's also partially randomised, the lower level version will still spawn for variety). Zombie King instead of Zombie Peasant, that kind of thing. I don't think anything in the world could be uglier than Oblivion though...

Well if he could turn water into gasoline, he probably would be the saviour of modern civilisation.

So that leaves King's Quest as the sole Sierra franchise to still lay dormant - and I believe it will stay thus. Talking their adventure games of course - I'd love to see a new Jones: In the Fast Lane. :D
-
The spinoff game/series which dropped the Tomb Raider branding has more tomb raiding than the mainline series which retains it, yeah.

Was hoping Monaco would have won the voting for the next community sale, but it fell short. But then visited the dev's website and they're selling the four-pack for $30 which would have matched the $7.50 price it would have been on Steam had it won the vote. But then their website failed under load. So I guess I'll come back later.

Received an e-mail from the Torment KS to register a shipping address for the delivery of the Numenera rulebooks. I kind of thought it looked like a phishing e-mail, heh - and I guess it still might be (though I've since found that the sparkworkz URL it links to is indeed owned by inXile): went direct to the website instead of following the links to register an address.
-
Just missed the daily sale for it - though I suspect it'll be back. It's included in the Season Pass if it works out a better deal for you that way.
-
I haven't even created a Steam Community ID, so I haven't even got that far....

BREAK BREAK - Fallout New Vegas in Steam sale
Humanoid replied to Walsingham's topic in Computer and Console
Well having to manually remove all the silly item pack DLC was annoying, but that's not really a reason not to buy it. -
It seems kind of arbitrary what Steam's new not-quite-offline mode can do: it won't grant you cards while playing, but will now save achievements. It won't update games, but will update itself. It won't take screenshots but will show the store homepage. Paranoid perhaps, but it makes me wonder what other data they're slurping while I'm nominally offline. Aside, wacky EA pricing: The Sims 3 by itself: $39.99. The Sims 3 + the Pets expansion pack: $44.99. The Sims 3 + the University Life expansion pack: $19.99. Oookay.

And by brown you mean something like an off-white or ivory. Or bright pink.

I'm awful at texting, it takes me a good few minutes just to compose a short one. But I've communicated to (in person, natch) most people with reason to contact me to not expect responses unless it's something that specifically requires an answer. I'm also limited to 100 messages every six months anyway due to my minimalist prepaid phone account ($30 per six months) - but then I probably only do one or two a month anyway.
-
If that works, I'm going to go play New Vegas again, for the heat. ...almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
-
No one can doubt my surgery skills now!

26°C? People in normal countries set their air conditioner thermostats to cool to 26°C!

I assumed it was meant to be dry British humour, but then I see articles that call that weather hot unironically. http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/hot-weekend-for-london-birming/15188283

Even after the umpteenth time you get captured in a cutscene?

I have an answering machine built into my phone (which I have mostly as an afterthought), I've maybe checked it twice in five years since the landline is really only there for DSL and no one important ever calls me on that number. I haven't changed the stock message so the caller has no way of knowing who they've reached. It was awkward when I found one of the ancient messages was a wrong number from a hospital trying to tell someone that a relative of theirs was terminal. :|
