I am afraid that if I buy Dark today, it will be bundled tomorrow

Always a significant worry!

Yes. You are a bad person.
DARK is so shit they didn't even bother animating climbing, you just teleport around the place (including halfway up walls as a way of 'climbing')... and the writing is emo 13 year old level. The stealth is a joke and the combat is horrible.
Avoid.

Aw yisssss. Those sound like some horrible mechanics alright! The writing being god-awful is just going to enhance how wonderfully terrible it'll be!

It's been on my wishlist for ages, it looks cool. I have no idea why it's supposed to be bad.

Yeah mine too! It looks like a budget stealth vampire hybrid game, and it was critically torn apart. All the intrigue! I figure I may not bite, just because I might not have time to dive in right now! But I sure do want to!

Cancel my Darks Souls II collectors edition and buy the base game from GMG or keep it and wait a week/pay more?

Then again I'm full of work regarding college for the next few weeks....

Decisions decisions.

That's a quandary I'm facing. Wait a week and get extra swag but be wound up something chronic if I even set foot on GAF or take the plunge and cancel my physical order and grab a digital code now. But yeah I'm quite busy next Sunday and the week there after so I might end up cutting off my nose to spite my face.

 

[Ruruja]

Would be nice.
Didn't Gabe Newell say something like people will be able to open up their own storefronts and curate it themselves?

Can't wait until that happens so I can find someone who has tastes similar to mine and just bookmark their store and go there.

Wasn't he referring to devs/publishers, rather than us?

 

[Arthea]

someone has anything to say about Big Brain Wolf? The description is...

The player takes upon the role of an asthmatic vegetarian wolf studying to become a genie.

... interesting? (><)

Vegetarian Wolf.....HAWH
That's like having a Vegan Velociraptor.

He was referring to...

...everyone!

Valve see storefronts as UGC.

 

[zeroOman]

Can someone from Russia help me get Tropico 5... I will pay him with paypal

 

[Madrugador]

I still haven't played the first Dark Souls because of GFWL

Hope they remove it before I finish Arkham Origins.

 

[AlphaProspector]

Holy shit, screw work I just opened Steam and activated this fucker.

It says "sub 36517", huh. Anyway, yeah, preloading as soon as I get back home. One thing is activating stuff, another is download off work's network, which is basically a death wish/sentence.

DARK SOULS II: PREPARE FOR SMOOTH AND SILKY, DURANTE APPROVED EDITION

 

[Exuro]

He was referring to...

...everyone!

I really wonder how they're approaching this. I'm assuming there will be a complete makeover of the store for a more modular approach so users/pubs/devs can easily set up their own storefronts.

don't forget asthmatic too! (><)

Spoiler

I'm curious, really

it's only 2&#8364;, but reviews are bad, it can be another bad rats, that's stopping me.

 

[RionaaM]

They got the voice of Geralt, and the script is so bad he's just phoning it in (or so I'd like to imagine. Judging by the horrible sound mix, it's probably just incompetent direction)
Enjoy the start of the game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foeYkL1s5Ak

I'm at work, so I can't really watch it now. That said, I read your previous post, so it may be bad indeed.

It's still staying on my wishlist for now. Maybe for a buck or so it can be enjoyable.

Skip the game altogether and finish The World Ends With You instead!

It's definitely due to a revamp, yeah.

oh shit my dks2 nuuvem key is up

THE HYPE IS REAL

 

[The_Monk]

As soon Dark Souls II releases someone will need to feed me pretty screenshots and entertaining gifs, please. I'll be sure to check the PC thread for it every now and then.

If you want to let go, then it's time to stop posting about dinosaurs. It's time to move on.

Don't delay it. You'll only hurt yourself.

all caps is pretty dumb

That's the store sub as well, kind of weird they don't have a separate retail sub

I just can't help myself.
I don't even realize i'm doing it half the time.

 

[Rhaknar]

morning gaf (technically its already almost 8pm but I just woke up)

any new bundles around?

 

[ChimpanzeeThat]

I'm pretty sure I reached my final form:

The combat in Batman Origins is god-tier.

Highest i've reached is about 42, the double counter keeps screwing me over because the animation for it is broken on my game for some reason.

 

[RavenValor95]

Wasn't he referring to devs/publishers, rather than us?

Was he? I could've sworn he used Yahtzee as an example of someone who could open up a storefront, not sure though it's been a while since I last heard his talk.

 

[Knurek]

Sigh, Game|Life, Give Us a Modular Console We Can Upgrade Like Google’s New Phone...
It's called a PC, you know?

my OCD senses are tingling.

Check monday indie gala.

Almost 8pm? Don't tell me you were celebrating a certain victory last night...

 

[Mavromatis]

Seeing that "Love" on indiegala monday bundle I remembered that I got it from some bundle. But when did it got greenlit and where is my key?

 

[Anteater]

They're japanese, that's just how they roll.

http://gamingonlinux.com/articles/linux-steamos-earn-the-400-games-badge.3529

at this rate 500 titles for the Steam Machines launch is going to be an underestimation by Valve

 

[Fox318]

DEVS ARE JUST REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THEIR GAME

 

[Rhaknar]

Check monday indie gala.

no, I work graveyard shift, and had to work extra too last night.

but I was celebrating it in my heart nonetheless o/

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'm still waiting for my Cards Konami.

 

[zkylon]

REALLY EXCITED™

 

[VikasNarula]

Why i haven't received any email from GMG about my Dark Souls 2 pre-order.
*feeling unlucky*

 

[Milamber]

I'm still waiting for my Cards Konami.

You'd think they'd support cards because half their revenue comes from card based games but they didn't.

REALLY EXCITED™

PLEASE UNDERSTAND!

 

[Grief.exe]

Check your GMG library for the key.

 

[Firebrand]

Nuveem key was ROW, don't know whether to be relieved or disappointed that there won't be any carnivals of the damned.

 

[corrosivefrost]

GMG and Nuuvem have released DS2 keys, just have to go to your account to access them.

Waiting on mine from Direct2Play now...

 

[Ruruja]

Was he? I could've sworn he used Yahtzee as an example of someone who could open up a storefront, not sure though it's been a while since I last heard his talk.

You're probably right then, I only quickly glanced at the cliff notes someone made on it.

 

[Echoplx]

Waiting on mine from Direct2Play now...

I wouldn't expect keys until release from an unauthorised key reseller, they rip them out of retail copies.

 

[VikasNarula]

Check your GMG library for the key.

Got it, thanks sir

That's a quandary I'm facing. Wait a week and get extra swag but be wound up something chronic if I even set foot on GAF or take the plunge and cancel my physical order and grab a digital code now. But yeah I'm quite busy next Sunday and the week there after so I might end up cutting off my nose to spite my face.

I'm mostly considering the 40 vs 80 euros at this points, I think it's best to assume I won't be playing it much this week.

Skip the game altogether and finish The World Ends With You instead!

Man, just finished putting 27 hours in Virtue's Last Reward this last few days (and a few more hours in New Little King story [ugh the framerate] and some Project Diva).

I'm ready to go back to my PC gaming and play a challenging game.

 

[Mavromatis]

STEAM | MAY 2014 - Your DARK SOULS 2 keys arrived!.

 

[Kiru]

oh shit my dks2 nuuvem key is up



THE HYPE IS REAL

SEXY BEACH REVELATIONS any good ?

 

[AlphaProspector]

They're japanese, that's just how they roll.

KING OF FIGHTERS XIII also features caps. Same as MGR (which was mentioned already) and ACE COMBAT ASSSAULT HORIZON.

Because I guess Japan loves CAPS, they differentiate enough from the entagled network of kanji everywhere.

There must be something in the Steam docummentation that is telling them to go full on caps, heh.

edit: Oh, yeah, SEXY BEACH REVELATIONS. Xenosaga, Xenoblade on that game library. If only, IF ONLY!

 

[zkylon]

SEXY BEACH REVELATIONS any good ?

almost as good as the saboteur!

 

[Echoplx]

I asked about the caps in an MGR thread and apparently Japanese companies think caps are "compelling"

See my most above. Glad I have confirmation but, yeah, it's a thing that stands out a lot over a stream of kanji and, moreover, helps a bit alleviating the katakanization (or the permanent, constant use of english words in katakana form). Not that they'll stop using them since english words are cool, except for my japanese professor who wants us to use all the original terms, lol.

i like it, japanese devs being comically clueless about pc development is one of my favorite things about them lol

you wish your library was half as hot as mine
