Without spoilers, is the ending to the game as mind-fuckingly awesome as that of the first LoS? Enjoyed that game despite its length, but the ending was incredible and made drop my controller and yell "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!" at the TV (in a good way!).
Mediocre ending sadly.
The writing was never good in this game and on the last quarter of the game the whole thing goes full stupid.

I'm thinking of buying Metro: Last Light. Is the season pass worth grabbing?
I want my ref, Valve!
I want my everything Valve!
I don't feel like complaining or pestering them, because I still can play games, but they really need to do something about their euroservers or client, nothing works as it should.
There is still good to be found in this situation, steam annoys me so much that I'm thinking about dusting off my PS3 and finishing some games there, what I need to do also (><)
Your ISP. Switch to Google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8) for now and it'll be fixed.
No most of the DLC is pretty forgettable with the exception of the Faction Pack with the Library level. The base game is great though, one of my GOTY 2013.
Also the DLC goes on sale cheap and often enough that you can piece it all together after the fact if you beat the game but still want more Metro goodness.
I'd recommend sticking with Google's DNS servers, if only to avoid the issue occurring again in the future. I can't even remember the last time I used my ISP's own.
You won't notice anything different unless you're experiencing a DNS-related issue with your ISP. There's zero harm in making the change. Google's guide focuses on changing OS-level settings, but I'd recommend doing it at the hardware level (i.e. set the DNS servers in your router).

My favorite Tales game is Tales of Legendia, but that's apparently a really unpopular opinion.
ToS is cute if a little juvenile. Still really fun though! It was my first.
I don't consider Legendia to be my favorite but I honestly enjoyed that game quite a lot, so no, you're not alone. Most people apparently consider it the worst in the series when I actually felt Symphonia is by far the most forgettable Tales of I've played to this day.
Xillia is getting close to stealing that trophy.
I switched to Google's DNS servers after my last ISP started having an hour a week or more of downtime with their own. That was a few years ago and I haven't had an issue once with Google's. I also recommend this.
It's effectively a non-ending, if that makes sense...

After last week's bundle-geddon, I've felt a little empty this week...
Well if your ISP is anything like mine when you switch you probably find there will be far less look up issues. A good rule of thumb if you're having connection issues with mp servers is to try switching your DNS settings.
A timeless vintage of game design I'd say. They sure don't make em like this any more. It's moved up to #'13 in my most played games on Steam already and I haven't unlocked Separate Ways or Mercenaries yet.

Edit: welp, clearly wasn't paying attention. I must have expected the Steam UI to open my uncompressed directory, rather than it's own. Found my uncompressed pngs, yay.
Would be better if Steam displayed the pngs in it's UI.
I'm enjoying the shit out of it. It's nice to have mouse aiming as now I can actually hit stuff.

Google's DNS also typically updates/refreshes more often than those of most ISPs, so you're less likely to run into issues if/when sites and services switch IPs for whatever reason. Thanks also to Google for providing IT guys everywhere with the simplest IP address to memorise and ping to test connectivity - bless you.
I figured I'd go the sophisticated beauty route before diving into drugs and getting into limos while not wearing underwear.
Such a pretty avatar, Jase. Do you know if Saoirse is attending the Oscars tomorrow?

Your first time playing it? I played my flatmate's PS2 version and fell in love pretty quickly.
<3
I jumped on Tumblr earlier and some people had posted pics of her arriving at LAX, so I think she is. It'll be the first time she's attended the Oscars since being nominated for her role in Atonement, as far as I'm aware.

Keyboard aiming wasn't that bad, a bit of patience and you are on headshot spree.
I will take your word for it as I have only played the Ps2 version for length of time until this recent version. All my years as a PC gamers means i suck ass with the analog sticks. I think I was averaging about 63 percent accuracy on the Ps2 compared to 88 on the PC.
They really don't make them like this anymore. The depth to the mechanics, the way progression is handled, the puzzles, the aloof nature in which gameplay is presented (no hints as to how you are supposed to go about things optimally), etc.
Likely won't ever see a AAA game like it again.
I am enjoying myself immensely. I think I'm going to 100% this game.
I played it on the PS2 when it was originally released.
Its funny how vividly some parts of that game stick out in my mind, but it almost feels like I'm playing a new game.
Stockholm Syndrome
My overall accuracy is like 90-95% lol.
I would try that but Shadowrun and South Park will be calling my name. Though I might return when I am done with them.
Yeah I get 95 is some sections in others low 80s. It'a probably because I panic in large groups and miss more often. Still I have only played maybe 4 or 5 hours on the PS2 so this is pretty much my first time playing this game. Farthest I made it before was barely getting to the castle.

D'aww. Well don't worry, Vesperia and Symphonia are plenty good (although I haven't played Vesperia yet unfortunately)I've only bought vesperia and symphonia, didn't have the chance to play the other games
Good to hear you enjoyed it too. :') Yeah, Symphonia in retrospect isn't that great. Although the battle system is fun, the plot is kind of... stupid? If it wasn't my first Tales game, I probably wouldn't remember much about it either. I enjoyed Destiny and Phantasia over it, even though those battle systems are much worse.
Funnily there are quite a few hints as you go but they way they're handled by being blended in with the environment, text files you collect or how enemy's react. The church treasure puzzle for example is pretty much spelled out for you on the tombstones as you approach the church but not made glaringly obvious that its a puzzle solution.
I'm actually looking forward to The Evil Within now just to see if Mikami will be on top form (as always).

Nice, make him all the way to the 120/144Hz gloriousness.
Is there a date (or rumour of one) for the release of the high-end Maxwell? I know the first card was just released, but it's a 28nm part rather than 20nm.
And don't worry, it was worded a bit weird

Nah, nothing but speculation for the time being. The common assumption is Q3/Q4, depending on yields.

Repent by starting afresh on your PC. The game looks divine via Dolphin and, arguably, better than the PS3 rerelease.
<3 Ikaruga :O
yea I heard that which seems like good advice
I'm not too obsessive about that crap so it won't be hard but it seems to be a lot faster than ff12 (what with the fast travel and auto-complete thing on quests and crap), and I really liked ff12 tbh, story notwithstanding.
Looks like someone took the best part of Shenmue and made a full game out of it!
Damn, just saw this post, now I just hit a shopping spree:Hmm, I just noticed that a handful of other Bohemia titles are also 90% off. I may pick up a few spares of the Take on Helicopters Bundle -- just a few, though. Certainly not 15.
Ah, so the usual refresh date then.

For a moment I thought my Logitech G9 was ready to be retired. The mousehweel was acting funny but luckily it was just some dust that got in there. This badboy has been with me for over 4 years already :')

Buying operation phoenix pass for CS:GO is a really profitable purchace.Got it for 2 euros and sold 1st box (the operation phoenix case)for 3 euros profit and got my second drop now and sold it for 1.73 euros profit.
Got maps and 2.73 extra

Zenimax/Bethesda though...Such a garbage company to get in bed with.
There is always hope.
Actually, going by Sven's comments a couple years ago, we were closer to getting RE1-3 on Steam/GOG than RE4.
Akamai is a content distribution network. I've never seen an Akamai-related link on Steam, though.

It was the weirdest thing. I clicked on the link and it asked for an age check for Deadly Premonition and my account wasn't logged in. Then I hit back and everything was back to normal.
Some of Sega's MegaDrive games are linked to store.steamgames.com rather than store.steampowered.com. It's why they're not flagged as owned in search results.
