I switched to AMD after all the bullshit Nvidia put me through, so... yeah.

Just finished my 25 hour long Extra-Life gaming marathon and I gotta say, I'm pooped.
That's some quality game marathon.

I dickride for Nvidia, but even from a balanced perspective I always find it hard to believe serious complaints about either company. 99% of my video card issues have been manufacturer (MSI, etc) problems (fan breaking) or my own useage (running that motherfucker into the ground). I happen to be pro at installing drivers and using them too.

It does. It is the initial tutorial mission and is a good enough way to get a tiny idea of what you would be letting yourself in for. tl;dr play demo am gud
Guess we need a update on the Thread Title concerning errors and Community acting poorly lately.
STEAM O|T: If you won't read the OP or use ctrl+f at least read the last few posts before you ask a question or post something that has already been covered a million times already *stern stare*
Wait...are you telling me that it's your birthday today Accent?
Just finished my 25 hour long Extra-Life gaming marathon and I gotta say, I'm pooped.
Ya done good, man. I don't think I could survive 25 hours of gaming.
Word on the street is it's pretty clunky right now but has promise.
I guess it is!

Nah, it's easy. Just stock up with Sid Meier's games and your good to go.
25 hours will be done before you even know it.
Happy Birthday my dear semi-neighbor Accent ! (Grenoble here ;-)
By the way guys, have you noticed how clunky is Steam tod...
But seriously, I have a badge of Outlast to craft GabeN ! Work on that shit !
And about the game, yesterday I said I didn't see how they could ruin the game in its final hours except by introducing aliens... hmm, they didn't (ruin or introduce) but fuck if they come close to it. Can't comment any further because spoiler but the thing behind the mystery is... I think we could say divisive. Not really my thing but hey.
My main gripe is that, maybe I'm an idiot as a lot of the plot is written on logs, I'm growing tired of big mysteries like Outlast or Amnesia, playing (and loving every minute of them), understanding the fractured plot as I play along and arriving at a final point where I can't head or tail of it as a whole. Like there is a line, the writter throw muds at it to make it mysterious, but poor old me can't ultimately see the cleared line at the end.
In the case of Outlast, in light of this week news it is evidently done in part to sell us a prequel but come the fuck on : would it be to hard to have a place on the internet where when you finish a game it is explained to you just by facts, without having to drown on logs subjectivity and blurriness. Yup, I imagine this wish could upset a lot of people, but seriously, Outlast final hours and the word convoluted, so made for each others. Same thing for Amnesia, plot as classic as they go, but hell if some character's motivation flew right over my head.
Yes, naked truth and mystery don't seem attractive at first, but I would sometime like to finish an horror game without a 'what the hell did I just play' kind of look on my face.
Edit - About truth behind convoluted mysteries, kudos to the steam user that tried to explain the game with a straight face while missing or mixing up some elements. Idiot.

Then you get to watch 5 hours of awful cutscenes and 2 more hours of poorly written monologues that would make me seem like an optimist by comparison. There's a few hours of repetitive gameplay thrown in there somewhere too.

Does the Y button not work for anyone else in bpm? Decided to try it out while playing Sleeping Dogs and I can't use it with the daisy wheel.
I had a similar problem recently after reformatting my pc. Just uninstall and reinstall the controller drivers.
daylight savings time dude. It's only 12:30.

After blowing through Red Faction: Armageddon, I've gone back to RF: Guerrilla, which I never finished. So I'm probably going to be taking a sledgehammer to half of Mars again this afternoon. I'd like to start an RPG, but I can't seem to decide on anything - I started The Last Remnant, but that sort of stalled out a few hours in, and nothing really seems to be jumping out at me. Maybe I'll try to get back into The Witcher. (What little I played of it seemed interesting enough, but the combat just wasn't clicking for me.)
So the new deal will show up in... 30 minutes?
I'm not in the us and I have my own daylight savings to take into consideration.
Before my Daylight savings started, deals would go up at 2 PM for me. Then, My Daylight Savings started, and deals were going up at 3PM. Now that yours ended, I don't really know what happens.
It's 3:38 right now. I think it'l start in the next 30 minutes, right?
It also usually fucks me over on TV Series. It's a 2 hour difference between me having daylight savings and you guys not having it. It's crazy.
Awesome that fixed it.
20 minutes now, yes.

The writing for the kids was nothing short of fantastic. There are a couple exchanges that were easily some of the most inspired writing I have seen in videogames.
I did like the dialogues, it's kind of charming, would probably play another game if they made one.

nice, I had to split my play session up but haven't been anywhere near as productive as you so far ^_^
I just clicked on it and saw "You already own Grand Theft Auto IV: Complete Edition" but on my games list it's only "Grand Theft Auto IV" and there's no tab for downloadable content. Is there a way to make sure I have those extra episodes without installing the game?
Check whether you have Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City in your library
Thank you fellow GAFfer, I don't have them. Did Steam just lied to me? Because in that way I don't have the Complete Edition.
Hopefully that opinion doesn't change later on. Some of the enemy types. Urgh.
Eh. I think I paid more and I never played them, because GFWL and R* Social Fuckup never let me actually run the game when I want to try it, so... Yeah.
Lol, I'm not in your head but I feel I can safely say : hated them too.
Everybody must hate them actually.
That never happened to me yet. Maybe one day, who knows?
Think I'm gonna fire up The Swapper now.
Yup, can't access it.
You should be able to get it for around 2.5 keys on outpost, which would be about $5 in real money. Always find this offer really underwhelming when compared to the old GTA complete pack you could get for £5.
The GTA episodes? Well the lost and damned is just more GTA 4, pretty much nothing to do but story missions and hanging out with buddies. Ballad of Gay Tony is the longer expansion and packed with a bit more content but it's still mostly missions. Thankfully the missions are a bit crazier than 4 and Lost and Damned but nothing like the ps2 GTAs and some missions in GTA5. You can do parachute challenges too which are decent fun. I recommend playing Gay Tony at least.

i found lost and the damned's missions better than BOGT and the vanilla missions. that's not saying much, but i did enjoy the road rage/biker vibe. i would only consider rebuying it some CAG traders get if for $5 though cos the vanilla missions are awful.
