Some great advice on the Baldur question, thanks guys. I haven't played any of the classic crpgs, got a lot of interest in the upcoming kickstarted games though and figured why not.
Stallion, enjoyed your thoughts on Thief and LoS2. I actually really enjoyed Thief coming at it from the angle of enjoying game slike bioshock, metro etc. and emphatically disliked my playthrough of LoS2 haha. I wouldn't pretend that LoS was a classic or anything but it was a sight better than what they turned out with the new game. Bland mediocre environments, resulting in boring gameplay and I have to say, I didn't enjoy the score as much this time either. Real disappointment.

I played the game many years ago using a DDR dance mat once.
It was brilliant.

I'm so happy about this bundle sale, and to my surprise, it was extremely easy signing up for Nuuvem!
What currency are they using? Brazilian?
Yep, Brazilian Real.
Nuuvem has quickly become my #1 browsing site for deals and offers. Some prices are outrageous.

These keys only work if you emailed your key to the dev, why they did it this way who knows?
Looks like i was beaten back to the grill with me.
you're not the first person to say this in this thread
I guess the episodes are something to look forward to. The main game actaully isn't bad so far, requires a lot of patience thoIt's like dark souls bro, but instead of losing souls you gotta drive again!

I hope you turned the music completely off for the sake of your sanity!
That was so obviously meant to be taken satirically that only the stupid and/or wilfully obtuse would have taken that comment seriously.
Well there you go.
Don't take it personally Copons; some people just have a bug up their arse about certain things and look to be outraged when there is nothing there to be genuinely outraged over. The prejudiced and bigoted come in many shapes and sizes. The "right thinking" brigade have plenty of their own. If you are being targeted over this you might like to consider reviewing your privacy settings and/or taking it up with Valve.
Glad to see South Park is doing well, deserves the sales.

The game tells you when no worries and you can do stuff after the credits too.
Take it there isn't a way to activate a bundle key when you have the original edition without messing with Steam support?
Bought that Tropico 4 collection from Nuveem for the DLC since it's far cheaper than buying the dlc separately. However, since I already owned the base game, it doesn't let me activate it.

Seriously? I did the same thing and it let me activate the key just fine. My original Tropico 4 key was from a Bundlestars bundle and is listed as a retail key on my account though. Did you originally buy Tropico 4 on Steam or activate it via a key? Would that even make a difference either way?

How long has it been since Prima pulled all of their guides from the Steam store? Was it around the time that Valve introduced the user created guides?

I hope so. I have a freebie copy too, wouldn't mind having it activate on Steam.
It was a key. I'm wondering whether it's family sharing messing it up. It states I do own the DLC through a friend who has the DLC. However, as far as I'm aware you can only share DLC if you don't own the game.

Just finished the first mission pack for Quake 2, The Reckoning, and... it is the worst thing I have played that was officially associated with id's shooters. I don't think I even want to go too much into it but it ranges from boring to frustrating with nothing in between. It is truly bad and I'm pretty happy I never subjected myself back to this when it was new. So much backtracking, and almost every new enemy type was bad. Ugh.
You made a stinker Xatrix. Hope Rogue's attempt in mission pack 2 is better, their Q1 MP was alright so I have higher hopes. Quake 2 was always pretty mediocre but Xatrix took it to a whole other level of bad.

They were removed from the store 7 months ago.
Community guides were introduced in December of 2012.
I were looking on Steam, that's why I didn't find anything.
Thank you kind sir.

Damn Quake 2 + expansion packs are all I have left of the series and now I feel like putting it off was justified.

I like that look much better than the standard version.
Gotta find some time for it next week, you make me excited about it.
I'm also thinking of buying either Dark Souls or Fallout 3 at Nuuvem for R$14.99 which should amount to $6.40. I haven't played any of them either.
Ah well, South Park is completely based upon disgust, so of course you're not the right audience for it.
I instead, began watching it in my teenage, when I was more fond of the disgusting side of the show, and I became a true fan only when rewatching it years later I started to get all the sociopolitical commentary hidden under dozens of disgusting layers that I believe are there more to confound and repel most people than for their simple crass and "coprolalic" comedic value.
Also, I guess that, being a somewhat (amateur) satirical author, I'm hugely inspired by South Park style, even, of course, if I'm totally aware of the fact that the deep and to-the-point writing of Parker and Stone are waaaaaaaay far beyond my dream skills.
Oh no, I'm not that anal myself!
It's just that while in Italian I've a perfect understanding of both language and culture to be able to just ditch this kind of disapproval (and where possible I'd do it with an even more outrageous answers
), when writing in English for a worldwide audience I always fell I'm on the edge between ironic and bothering, without a correct grasp of where my boundaries actually can be.For example, while the C word in English is a huge WOAH NO, in Italian it's rude but acceptable, rarely used for true sexist offenses (disputable, especially thinking about all the unconscious sexism, but still we Italians have a habit of using the worst words meaning no harm at all).

Thanks to both Stallion and Stump for taking the time to document their thoughts in such detail.
I'm really looking forward to playing through all three of those titles sometime soon, despite their respective faults and shortcomings (and I'll simply pretend Thief is in no way associated with any titles that may have worn the same name in the past). Cheers, guys.

I'm just going to fire up Colonial Marines for the first time.
I may need some counselling shortly :/.
^^^^ As long as you were just venting and are genuinely not upset about it all Copons then that's the important thing. I have come to the conclusion that whatever one says and however one tries not to be upset anyone there is going to be someone on the internet that takes offence to what one says.

So in the last week or so I finished Thief (2014) and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 so I thought I'd write up my thoughts to help summer sale planning/price-point purchase decision making.
....
Thank you so much, that really helped me. I've been wondering if I should bother with Thief.
Why? Why would you do this?
Protip: Ranting about it and taking screenshots of every single thing that fucks up helps
Still enjoying Prime World: Defenders. I'm kinda addicted to crafting/unlocking new cards...
As easy as any other website. Make an account and pay with CC or PayPal.

Yep, you just need to create an account and enter a very few basic details (username, create a password etc), and you can pay with PayPal. I only bought from their for the first time last week and had no problems.

Keep an eye out for GOG running sales on the D&D collection. You can basically pick up the Anthology version for cheap.
Also, out of that collection, I very highly recommend playing Planescape: Torment. It's an absolutely fantastic RPG.

Because I'm a masochist like you with Thief?
Actually it's because I saw a few fellow GAFers mention that they were playing it recently and I'm looking for a new gaming love since I have decided to take a break from my XCOM obsession. [I hate that post obsession period where I don't know what to play; I feel so lost
]Anyway, I've stopped it now as despite it clearly being really pretty crap the sounds were bringing back the tension from the movie and giving me a headache. I was going to put it in my "Okay, I'm done, turn it off" category for games that irritate me and I'll try again at a later date when I have found some patience. However, I am now in a perpetual exit game/start up game loop so will reboot my pc and delete the game instead. Take that Sega.
EDIT - SUCCESS!
It is now in my "not installed LOL" category, where it belongs!
Now what do I get my gaming teeth into? :/
So tempted to fire up XCOM and give Impossible a whirl :facepalm:.

Thanks for the suggestion
. I was just thinking just the same funnily enough. I'm in that horrible "Bah! I can't be bothered to 'learn' a new game" mood though :/. I can easily understand why so many gamers buy loads of games and then just go back to CS or DOTA or whatever.lol that's gold

Dude, get One Finger Death Punch, it's $4 on Steam and totally worth it at that price, or install and play it if you have it (check your bundles the Steam codes are out for it). Game will make you feel like a total badass.
You can thank me later (unless you start yelling like Kenshiro when playing and waking everyone up in your house or appartment building)
What is is this from, originally? Hilarious stuff.
