Any date for MGR release?

Konami has yet to clarify the "soon" remark.

 

[Stallion Free]

I was expecting something quick and dirty, given my earlier supposition that the DLC was rushed out to appease the cranky early adopters of the Season Pass.

It doesn't feel rushed so much as it feels misguided and uneducated.

Hope this works, it's not a Steam link... PM me if it doesn't.


Unrelatedly, I just beat

Capra Demon

in Dark Souls. On my second try. Feels good. (Having a powerful sword with good range that doesn't eat up all my stamina is a huge help)

How did you give away/get the key without the email address?

I wonder what the over under is on narco terror being better than the expendables game

Considering the game in question, that certainly sounds rushed.

 

[Deques]

Now that Dunder is quitting, who is now gonna sell me Castlevania for dirt cheap

Correction: Dunder has some Castlevania for sale, and they are dirt cheap

Speaking of Stallone, is Steam not getting this hotly-anticipated game?

Also, Capcom should be offering Lost Planet + Lost Planet 2 for LP3's third tier, not Lost Planet + Bionic Commando Rearmed.

How did you give away/get the key without the email address?

Support sent me a new link after I told them what I'd done, and I just sent that to ModBot. I think the way you're supposed to do it is buy it several times for yourself, the site detects that you already have it and sends you the email with a similar link (that you can then register with ModBot.)

yea I know. but like the doc suggest, his Store is offline for now :/

I have no idea what Starseed Pilgrim is supposed to be. I mean, I kinda get what I have to do, but it's still strange. I've got a feeling it's a pretentious indie game, cryptic on purpose to appear smart and interesting. That notion is helped by the reviews and posts in the Steam forum that basically say "We can't tell you what this game is about, you have to find out for yourself." Not sure if I like it, I think I don't, but with less than 20 minutes played I can't really tell.

 

[MMBosstones86]

I thought it meant that he was Offline. Could be wrong though.

 

[Deques]

It says offline. But I bought Castlevania when it was offline.

it's back up! might be a glitch

gah. Castlevania for $14? i must resist

Not sure if I like it, I think I don't, but with less than 20 minutes played I can't really tell.

Everyone thinks that at first. The first part of the game is really about that confusion and discovering the game mechanics. It usually takes 60-90 minutes until it clicks for people. Just watch the reactions in the game to what you are doing closely and you'll eventually get behind it. I really liked the way the game made me explore its mechanics instead of a game world, and it reminded me of the sensations of exploring games back when I wasnt someone who already played what feels like every game concept that ever existed. I guess it just just confuses people because they arent used to exploring mechanics anymore without being guided, which is also why I think its such a terrific little game as it does a remarkably good job at pointing that out. Once you get over that initial phase, it becomes a very challenging, even a bit traditional puzzle game, but I stopped playing then. The highlight was the beginning.

I recommend letting it rest for now and setting aside one hour eventually to just playing around with it when you are in a relaxed and unhurried mood.

As soon as you try something that's a little out of the ordinary you're bound to be seen as 'pretentious' by some. I really don't think it is fundamentally though; it's just that a huge part of the experience is finding out stuff for yourself.

Basically it's a game that tries to push the concept of "discovering and understanding the game's mechanics" to its fullest, so you do have to think about what you do and what the consequences are and you'll start to notice the patterns and understand the game's system. And it's not's just an 'experiment', under all that occultism lies a game that you can truly master and is fairly challenging, with elements of puzzle and platforming. Just throw out your expectations of what a game ought to tell you and start thinking!

I shouldn't have indulged, but I couldn't resist!

 

[Stumpokapow]

Just woke up, gonna throw this out there again. Hopefully I'm not annoying people too much. Drawing will be over around 1pm EST. Also, is this gonna fuck up ModBot trying to find all these posts and cross them off? If so, I can manually go in and there and edit them a little later today.

It won't screw it up, but it is only going to edit one of them. For a 24 hour giveaway it's going to go back around a day of posts and start searching. Hopefully it finds the initial post.

Yep, eight new achievements:

Okay. Sounds good. I'll go back and manually update the rest of them when I get home from work (around 2pm or so). Again, I'm not trying to spam up the thread, but I know how fast it moves and didn't want a really cool giveaway to get lost in the shuffle.

Wow thanks guys, I didn't know that there will be a DLC, I can't see a release date yet, it only says "this summer"

I had no idea DLC was on its way. With that in mind, I should probably put Just Cause 2 on the backburner (again) and finish my initial playthrough.

 

[Fireblend]

Who is Dunder?

He's the good in our hearts.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Heh, you were the one who alerted me to the achievements.

If the achievements are already up, I'm guessing the DLC should be coming out pretty soon, too.

I saw them yesterday but I thought that I could get them after I beat the game in New Game Plus, but now I know that they are part of the DLC

At this point everyone should know who Dunder is

Oh shit man, I remember now. He offered me a cheap Bioshock Infinite as well.

That gif will never get old

 

[Gbraga]

Can't wait to get home from work to stare at my steam library for a few hours and not play anything.

EDIT: Holy shit Dunder's price on Lords of Shadow is pretty damn good. I need to check his store more often to see if he has more copies.

 

[Fuu]

Now I can finally resume the actual campaign... after completing the faction missions.

Ffffffff, one day. This map gets the OCD spinning, I'm always wandering off to 100% random locations. Lol.

 

[wetflame]

Sorry if it's already been posted, but it looks like the bonuses/added games for the Humble Bundle are going to be Metro 2033, Sacred Citadel and Risen

 

[Dolor]

Monday: 168 titles on my wishlist
Tuesday: The Great Purging
Wednesday: 60 titles on my wishlist

Feels good.

Shame, those were the 108 games I was just about to gift to you.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Ffffffff, one day. This map gets the OCD spinning, I'm always wandering off to 100% random locations. Lol.

i think i've played for 12 hours and have about 10% of the story done. Always get ADHD and bust up random places. Such an awesome time waste of a game.
