gaaaaabe!

awesome giveaway jase, maximum boss

 

[Knurek]

I'm not going to be around much today thanks to corporate auditing my 4th quarter audit.

Sounds kinky.

 

[JaseC]

[ashecitism]

Skimming the Steamworks YT channel I thought more people would be interested in the SDD videos. Same goes for GAF. The thread just died after 1 page.

No Half-Life, no party, I guess...

I'd guess pagefile.sys has removed itself. The file is practically vestigial in nature these days unless you have less than 6GB RAM.

Sounds possible. Can't really think of anything else. Haven't done anything on my notebook the weekend, save for playing Titanfall, which is on D:

 

[Tizoc]

Story in 1 & 2 are mostly self contained, but still...I would recommend starting with 1 as it's more inviting and great at easing you into its complex lore and world.

Plus there's an import save function.

Aha thx i hav the game thru gog.com so i can import my save for use with withcer 2 on steam.

 

[Arthea]

steam is down? or community only?

 

[PandaPedinte]

His ban gets lifted today I think.

Should be today-ish

Thank you.

 

[Knurek]

*empties desk suggestively*

Hush, you hussy.

 

[Tesseract]

steam is down? or community only?

no problems here.

 

[The_Super_Inframan]

Well, let's all bend over for inflated prices, I guess...

yeah, the only reason i would buy something in the humble store was because i could pay in dollar...

now it's the same as everywhere else... *sigh*

Thanks for Guns of Icarus, Jase!

Prey key giveaway. MS Paint contest. 24 hours. Blah blah blah.

In honour of all the bans in SteamGAF lately, the title of this content will be 'What Happens If When I Am Banned from GAF'. Profound sadness? Burning rage? Horrible, horrible freedom? One entry per person but you can make it whatever your little heart desires be it a single picture, multiple comic panels, poop flung at a canvas, animated JIF, etc. Funniest and most creative wins the fabulous prize.

Have fun kiddies.

[The_Monk]

Oh I can't wait for those MS Paints from you all. Thanks for making the contest Man Puncher, fun as always!

Hope everyone is good in this fine day although a bit cold in here.

 

[Sub Zero]

Thanks for Viscera Cleanup Detail JaseC. I loved the Shadow Warrior version so I am sure to enjoy this, but I think I'm keeping it for next Christmas

 

[MMBosstones86]

I did want to wish you all luck in beating Ikaruga though, I was never able to. It comes out today.

and audit of an audit? Audit-ception? hm...

Good luck.

 

[Fuu]

Thanks for 3089: Futuristic Action RPG, JaseC. The art style is totally giving me a Body Harvest vibe, haha.

 

[Ban Puncher]

I got this.

Disqualified from current and all future Prey Giveaways for submitting the same entry twice in a row.

This ain't no game.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

FYI: Humble Store now has Euro and British pricing.

Crusader Kings II for £69.99? What a steal!

Looks like I'm not buying anything from the Humble Store from this point on, good job at expanding your library of games that I can purchase anywhere else online for the same price or cheaper.

[Faabulous]

I just hate EA so much. For fuck sake, they simply stopped selling retail PC games here in Brazil so they can charge us more because by law they can only charge 99 Reais on retail PC games, they did this with Battlefield 4 and now they are doing it with ALL their catalog, including Titanfall and The Sims 4. If I ever want to buy EA titles on launch now I'll have to shell out 120 Reais. That is really fucking steep, and it was steep already at 99.
While most publishers used digital distribution to cut costs and have more penetration on the market (a digital full price title from Square Enix is 80 Reais) EA is exploiting the law and pulling this shit on us. EA went digital only, JUST so they can charge more while having less costs. This is just awful, why do they hate their consumers so much?

Sorry for the off-topic rant and the awful english.

TY for Zombie Shooter, Jase!

 

[vermadas]

Thanks JaseC for Universe Sandbox!

Unrelated; I've been playing Rayman Origins. It's one of those games where I'm not really having fun with it but I'm having difficulty understanding why. The controls are tight, the levels are interesting, and the game is gorgeous. Despite all that, I'm getting bored fairly quickly.

I had the same issue with Origins, and now Legends. Not sure why, but didn't enjoy either game. Probably because I suck at them.

I feel bad for the our Euro friends with the changes that are happening in the digital gaming stores, I know the feeling to well of being screwed by taxes and shitty conversion. Anyway, regarding the new HB thing:

Along with the currencies, we’ve introduced what we call Humble Pricing. Humble Pricing is an automated price that is updated every night based on the US dollar price of the game. Humble Pricing doesn’t scale up for VAT or other charges. It simply translates a single worldwide price to each currency.

I hope they don't do it with Reais or I won't be able to buy directly from HB anymore. Current Brazilian credit card policies make it so that you aren't able to purchase from sites that show a conversion of the price while still selling the products in dollars. The reason is that banks want to have control of what exchange they'll be able to apply when they bill you.

Real fun in Rayman Origins is in the Red Crystal levels. That differentiates men from pussies.

Also, from what I've seen Humble Pricing so far is $1 = 1€

I felt that Rayman Jungle and Fiesta Run were much tighter experiences. I didn't care for Origins at all.

...Motherfucking sales man.
I just now realized I have 99 Spirits thru Groupees but bought it with its JPN audio ver. off of a site recently.

These sales man...

Nice! I really couldn't wait for another site to charge me more for no reason at all!

Good thing its not an entry then

(though I could've used paint to put the images together and add the text)

Damn I need a new idea.

 

[wetflame]

It'd be interesting to see what the actual price comparison between US/EU/UK is on the Humble Store, hard to believe I'm not being ripped off in some way here.

Edit: Here's a few different price points, can anyone provide US equivalents?

Cubetractor £1.49
Papers, Please £5.99
Broforce £8.99
Starbound £11.99
Overgrowth Alpha £17.99
Broken Age £18.99
Mortal Kombat Komplete £24.99
Planetary Annihilation £32.99
Crusader Kings 2 £69.99

I was just going to put up a blank, white picture for the contest, but I'm even too lazy for that.

Are people still interested in Prey keys? I'm planning to do some large giveaways to eventually celebrate getting out of a bad spot. Might stockpile

At least it isn't a .gif.

I've posted this earlier today:

Yaaaa~y, Crusaders Kings II collection is up from $79,99 to €79,99 ($110)
What a steal, great deal.
At least they don't convert it to £69.99 ($118) like the dicks at GMG do. Still, choke on it, Humble.

 

[Sir Blaming]

done. time to go to bed

 

[HoosTrax]

Thinking about Alpha Protocol. Can you play it mostly stealth (silenced weapons etc)? Or does the it have stupid boss fights that require you to get shooty like DXHR?

Odin bless gog, I hope they never give into this temptation.

The latter. Stealth/pistol is kind of a broken class anyhow so the bosses aren't a problem.

Up until the cokefiend Russian that is.

Stealth is OP and some boss fights can be VERY tough depending on how you build yourself, but it's doable.

Buy it, dope-ass game.

 

[wetflame]

I wonder if it's possible to use a VPN to get US pricing and go through Paypal using that?
