I can get a Starbound four-pack for $24, which works out to $6 per head (and just to be clear, I myself don't see even a single cent of profit from this). I don't suppose three of you fine folks are interested?

I'm not, you welcome.

That is almost tempting, though I didn't care for the way Terraria controlled and it seems like Starbound didn't change much in that respect.

Arkham City's plot

Spoiler

was really smart, in hindsight.
There's lots of little clues throughout the game that get nicely misdirected.

Spoiler

It's worth appreciating that the big twist in Arkham City (clayface posing as the joker) is actually cleverly taking advantage of the Batman mythos rather than throwing it under the bus.

Exactly. (I'm looking at you, Arkham Oranges)

Consider me interested, Jase, if you find a couple of other like-minded chums - cheers.

sure, i'm in if you'll have me.

*edit* scratch that, i won't have access to my paypal for a few weeks. thanks anyway!

apologies. please don't hate me, lol.

 

[Crayons]

I wish I hadn't bought Starbound just so I can buy it again.

 

[JaseC]

That was quick! I'll PM you guys in a sec.

 

[Sajjaja]

Why are people excited about Terraria 2.0? How is it any different other than a space ship?

 

[Card Boy]

Wish they would make a Green Arrow game now that the show is really popular. They could very play the same since Bruce and Oliver both have similar backgrounds and they are both gadget based superheros.

I was playing Batman Origins and saw a Queen Industries shipping container and it made me wish for it even more.

The interface is a lot better than Terraria.

Ah, just as well there's a 30-second cooldown between PMs, haha. I need someone to fill your shoes!

 

[Sajjaja]

So?

 

[Turfster]

Fine, I'll do it, if only because otherwise duckroll will bully me.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

But how about construction, combat, movement and the like?

 

[Tesseract]

Ah, just as well there's a 30-second cooldown between PMs, haha. I need someone to fill your shoes!

phew, that would've been awkward. sorry about that.

 

[Miguel81]

I have Trine 2 Complete on Steam(unplayed). 1&2 are on GOG for 4-something--should I bite?

 

[Intheflorsh]

Ah, just as well there's a 30-second cooldown between PMs, haha. I need someone to fill your shoes!

I'm interested if there's still a spot.

 

[JaseC]

phew, that would've been awkward. sorry about that.

Haha, no harm done.

I'm interested if there's still a spot.

Sorry, Turfster beat you to the punch.

 

[Anustart]

It picks up once some legit story beats start happening there.

Yeah, to be honest, my interest picked up once I saw the flash back with the Kingslayer and the elf. Hoping I keep gaining more and more :3

Edit: Also, I thought I was supposed to be doing a quest for a dude behind the dude's house finding some contraption part, but nothing was in my journal about it and I couldn't find anything

 

[AScotAbroad]

Pretty excited, just redeemed my Kickstarter backer code for this. Really really really hope it doesn't suck, as the original game is probably my favourite game ever. Has a very special place in my heart.

I also don't want to regret backing it at a stupid level

Spoiler

$250

. As long as the game is good I'll be satisfied as I am looking forward to the physical swag that will eventually come my way.

 

[ClassyPenguin]

I'm interested if there's still a spot.

Sorry, Turfster beat you to the punch.

I will take it out of context and think this is something sexual.

 

[toddhunter]

The issue with the Escape Goat Alpha keys on steam has been sorted. So if you have purchased it, you should be able to play a bit now.

Wrote up some quick impressions at http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=92463679&postcount=187 but in short, I'm very excited for the full game.

 

[Turfster]

Sorry, but duckroll can be really scary.
I just had to do it.

Bohemia Interactive is having a sale of up to 80% on their games (basically 80% off Arma II Complete Steam and 25% off the rest)

 

[jshackles]

I just got done playing about an hour of Starbound.

The game is really neat but I can see why people are saying that it's basically Terraria in space. While it certainly seems that there will be more variety later on down the line, there isn't really anything new here. Not that that's particularly a bad thing - Terraria is an awesome game and this is more of the same.

I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't expand more on the core gameplay though. But then again, it's still in beta so it's hard to say what it'll end up as.

Long story short, if you like Terraria and are looking for a fresh coat of paint on the same game, check out Starbound.

 

[Intheflorsh]

No worries, I was going to wait until the game was out of early access anyways.

It seems so as if Escape Goat gets better and better, I will be definitely checking this in the future.

 

[denx]

I asked on the Steam forums and it seems like Starbound's price will remain the same upon launch. Ufff, pressure relieved then. I can wait until the game is more fleshed out before dipping into it. Steam wallet is safe for now.

 

[Turfster]

Long story short, if you like Terraria and are looking for a fresh coat of paint on the same game, check out Starbound.

Apparently it's already got a 500 meg update?

 

[jshackles]

Yeah it looks like it downloaded that as soon as I exited the game so they've updated it within the last hour.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Im bout to do something weird. Once I finish Batman Arkham Asylum main story Imma skip straight to origins then to city. It probably makes no sense whatsoever but imma do it.

Considering City takes place after Origins, it does make perfect sense.

I initially read "Bohemia Interactive" as "Disney Interactive" and my heart skipped a beat.

Let me love you, Disney.

 

[Sinatar]

If the game lasted any longer I'd have ended myself.

Keep dreaming, never going to happen

I can't picture Sherlock the same way now.

The guy from Arkham Origins got his own game?

 

[FloatOn]

All this starbound naysaying is lame. For one thing, not only do you have to survive enemies that the game throws at you but also you have to deal with your body heat not dropping too much AND keeping your hunger in check. It's like the best part of Don't Starve and Terraria rolled into one. Plus you get better art, music, interface and refined mechanics. Oh and the prospect of space battles and a storyline via quests on top of it. This game delivers.

 

[Anteater]

I mean 5hrs is still too long for a terrible game though. Maybe if it's like an hour like the bouncer...

Good point, yeah it's still too long.

 

[Jintor]

DX Director's Cut is great, but the way the commentary itself has been implemented is really annoying, especially when you're sitting in a room listening to the commentary and the NPCs are like "Why you not moving".

HL2's node point implementation yonks ago was the best.

Also, Max Payne 1 and 2 don't fucking work for some goddamn reason.

 

[ClassyPenguin]

Thanks for Faster than Light!

 

[Atraveller]

I had to disable MP1's AA to make it work.
