There is always next time. Just means Keyrock has to post more to get the next thread started sooner.
-
Crushed. I wouldn't have said anything if it was just a single post like that. But TWO posts on the same page with only some form of "LOL" as text, and only those two posts, deserved a comment. You act as if you are completly new to this forum and expected something different

Have to be after that new storefront
-
I don't know. I love the new Steam crap. It is so horrendous and unintuitive, I am bound to actually miss out on more stuff I'd otherwise have been tempted to buy. I predict saving a lot of money from now on

Awareness or unawareness does not change my brokeness

They should just hire Hassat Hunter for that and be done with it
-
I always felt that Spec Ops was trying to be to military shooters what Apocalypse Now was to war movies.
-
Just did a pacifist game of Age of Wonders 3. Only explored dungeons etc, cleared independent critters in my domain and allied with all AIs. Everybody lived... well, except for those monster dens and bandit camps.

Humble Store is giving Tropico 3 for free for another 10 hours or so. (I know, I know, the series has reached 5, but free is free )
-
Physical rewards seem to be something a lot of kickstarters have trouble getting right. MAy have to do with it being something so removed from the jobs they have experience with. They don't consider at first just how much effort can go into packaging and sending hundreds of parcels around the world

Was clearing out my spamfolder and noticed that Topware was giving away free Steam keys for Knights & Merchants Enclave East India Trading Company The email was from the 16th. To get the games you need to register at dlh.net a site I have no experience with, so I don't know if you want or want not to try if the offer is still going.

I have this image of npcs sitting around a tiny livingroom, sports or something on the tv. They each hold a can of their drink of choice and one, extremly bitter and angry, is ranting about "Those artificials stealing our jobs. I had this sweet gig with that new game in the Divinity series. Good pay, good hours. And then those bastards went and replaced us all with artificals." "Bastards..." agrees one of the others. "As if an artificial level 9 could ever do the job of a natural." "Cheap npcs... it is ruining the industry," says another. "You know what we should do?" says npc 2, "we should form a union." "Cut that $#!7 out," npc 3 growls "what do you think we are? Communists?" "What's that got to do..." npc 2 tries to ask puzzled. "It's all that artificer's fault." muses npc 1 "You know the one who lives just past from Config.sys in that old rundown dir/ ?" "Someone should do something about him," npc 3 says gravely "about that whole dir/ actually." Npc 2 starts to open his mouth but doesn't even manage to make a sound before npc 3 rants on "It used to be that you didn't even have to encrypt your access. But today? A natural npc isn't safe to walk the code alone with all those artificals out there. And they multiply like... like mallware. That's what they are, mallware!"

I realized how I truly hate it when games take control away from me. My first impression of D:OS was very positive. So I went into the city and started "investigating" the murder. Walked into the crime scene and woosh... *cringe* I was in the middle of something? Best way of getting me to not care about a story: ripping me out of something I actually am interested in.
-
Fascinating at first, with the various votes and interactions on the ship, but the combat is so forgetable, you start slugging through it just to see how different choices in the inbetween bits on the ship work out. The little flavour bits become more interesting than the game proper.
-
That was quick.
-
Nice! Also picked up EU4 for 8 bucks I think I still have a gift code for the Pruple Phoenix DLC left over from Gamescom if you want it for EUIV
-
The free game for today on the Humble Store is "Receiver"
-
$40? Not bad On another note, as a heads-up: in about 10 hours the Humble Store will apparently be giving away some game for free again as part of their summer sale.
-
Finally beat the quest I was stuck on in Desktop Dungeons. Took several attempts even after comming up with a working strategy because I was getting extremly unlucky (walls randomly shifting me into deadends). But all that made beating it so much more satisfying and the final attempt went so well, I even had more than half a dozen healing potions to spare.

Finished Child of Light. Fantastic game, though quite sad.

Adult females overthrown teen males as largest gaming demographic
melkathi replied to Bryy's topic in Computer and Console
Ugh, saw this advertisement gif today. Seems they still target the teen male audience.
-
Again, can't remember what keyrock already posted. (And that screenshot with the whale in the post above, somehow makes me think of a certain mission in XCOM: Enemy Within)
-
The only "challenge" is when you get unlucky in a fight against two Cradocks or Threshs and they start the knockback spam.

Romance? Obsession more like. I pretend that Christoph spend a month or more bedridden, giving them more time together and justifying just how strong their bond is. Otherwise there is something seriously wrong with those two kids /wanders off humming: "Hey, I just met you and this is crazy, but I see you're a vampire, so bite me maybe."
