Can we choose TWD Season 2 as GOTY even trough it has only one episode?

At the pace Telltale is at now you can probably vote for it as GOTY in 2014 and 2015 too.

 

[Grief.exe]

I have and want to play 3 games that require Uplay, I'm so scared of it, I haven't even tried, even for HoMM 6
Too many horror stories are loose on internets. And really... why, oh why Ubi thought it's good idea, I'll never understand.
Odin bless gog daily.

I'm actually in the same boat.

Fuck it, Ubi obviously doesn't want my money that badly. Too bad I will miss out on The Division, hopefully Destiny crosses over and fills a similar void.

 

[Arthea]

I had blasphemous idea, how much BioInf would be better if it was an adventure game, it even looks like one! I mean nicely.

 

[Annubis]

Is it better to sell holiday cards asap or keep them hoping the value picks up eventually?

I'm looking at my summer sale card and they are still worth less than dirt =/

 

[nexen]

I had blasphemous idea, how much BioInf would be better if it was an adventure game, it even looks like one! I mean nicely.

Should have been an FPRPG, then the combat would've been a bit more forgivable I think.

edit: I really like FPRPGs though.

Exactly! I used to play lots of Ubi games, not anymore

Little Inferno -- MB-C5FF4EAF300E9B96 - Taken by OcarinaOfDoom

 

[jaundicejuice]

Uplay needs to burn and die in a fire. What a horrid piece of software that's not even fit for purpose. Despite getting Blacklist for nowt I think ill pony up for it on Steam just to get it to run without being caught up in an auto patching loop.

Even if you buy it on Steam, it will run through Uplay.

All Steam will do is launch uPlay.

 

[Dr Dogg]

Even if you buy it on Steam, it will run through Uplay.

Yes but it patches correctly on Steam and avoids the useless jank and hoops Ubi makes you jump through. I'm having to manually download 3 patches from their 56k server and install them one by one on top,of each other. It's like it's the bloody 90's

UBI and EA games are pretty much console only for me now.
Pull network cord before I start playing and go with a minimum of hassle.

Well with Origin you may be selling your soul to the devil but at least EA come up with the goods. Uplay causes all the problems people still associate with PC gaming. Is a fragmented mess of a system.

 

[OcarinaOfDoom]

Nice little game.

Thanks!

 

[neoism]

b


yea but bio 2 is more fun than infinite

infinite is really not fun to play at all.

but... but....

lol i loved every second of infinite

 

[jaundicejuice]

Yes but it patches correctly on Steam and avoids the useless jank and hoops Ubi makes you jump through.

Yeah, about that, that was not my experience with Assassin's Creed 3 on Steam. uPlay client still gave me issues.

 

[Tellaerin]

I had blasphemous idea, how much BioInf would be better if it was an adventure game, it even looks like one! I mean nicely.

Hey, if Telltale can turn Borderlands into an adventure game, I imagine they could do amazing things with Bioshock Infinite. There's a lot more for them to work with, for starters.

 

[Arthea]

Should have been an FPRPG, then the combat would've been a bit more forgivable I think.

edit: I really like FPRPGs though.

I prefer third person actually, and it has RPG elements, kinda. I still think it would make a good adventure game, but then again... big devs-publishers making huge and shiny adventure game?! How ridiculous is that!

Hey, if Telltale can turn Borderlands into an adventure game, I imagine they could do amazing things with Bioshock Infinite. There's a lot more for them to work with, for starters.

you have a point!

Spoiler

I still can't believe they are making borderlands adventure game (><)

 

[Dr Dogg]

Yeah, about that, that was not my experience with Assassin's Creed 3 on Steam. uPlay client still gave me issues.

As I said it's not fit for purpose. Here's their SC Community Developers response on their own forums.

Hey guys...

So it turns out we're having some issues with the PC version and the Patch auto-Installer.

First off... this does not effect anyone who purchased the game via Steam.
Any other PC version (disc or digital) needs to MANUALLY install the patch.

That was posted in the 8th of August and guess what it's still not fixed on their end. The Steam distribution on the other hand doesn't have this issue (though there are a few others). Why they bother I don't know.

 

[rainking187]

New Indie Royale as well.

The Nutcracker Bundle includes
PixelJunk Monsters
Fester Mudd: Curse of the Gold
Prime World: Defenders
Dungeon of Elements
Legend of Fae

Pretty tempting. Glad I didn't buy that Bundle Stars bundle now, Prime World Defenders was the only game in it that looked somewhat interesting.

It had me at "3D action game that allows you to leap and climb through sprawling levels as a ninja rabbit".

The only thing I could ask for is the ability to mod in Usagi Yojimbo skins.

17%. what an odd discount number

17%. what an odd discount number

based on the age of the average furry

Salsa-feels incoming, I hope!

his cold dead heart is beyond saving i'm afraid.

 

[jshackles]

17%. what an odd discount number

Must be in league with Activision

 

[Turfster]

17%. what an odd discount number

Well, it's very early access.
If they make the discount too big, they'll get even more idiots dumping verbal diarrhea on them then they will already.

I've been following Overgrowth for a while. It looks pretty amazing.

 

[Salsa]

overgrowth is basically new lugaru right?

like, the game that was made by that one kid

 

[Smash88]

Overgrowth looks awesome, shame it's usually related to furries.

I know. I was tempted to preface my post saying I'm not a furry, but some of that fur-art is just too good.

Same not a furry, and actually find that sub-culture extremely weird, and somewhat broken, along with the whole MLP thing.

I hope this game does well, looks amazing in terms of combat techniques and modding capabilities.

I went to play the Walking Dead Season 1 DLC the other day but it looks like my saves disappeared when I moved over to a new hard drive.

I was really looking forward to season 2 but now I don't care as much anymore.
