Just wait 10 Days do level up your pins... lol.
Better play Dota2 against noobs if you want to feel powerful.

Or I could try some grinding, and see if there's better equipment to buy. Still, that boss... I think I hit a roadblock, there's absolutely no way I could defeat it.

I see what you did there! Fuck it, I'm going to give it a try right now. Wish me luck!

[dark_inferno]

Do you have any tips? I die on the second level (after the first teleporter). I just can't do enough damage. Should I be letting things spawn on the first level and grind more before moving on? Does money carry on from level to level?

Money doesnt carry over. Just try to find the exit as soon as possible. Then activate it while killing all monsters. After its activated and you are ready to go go search some chests and buy items. If you get the hang of the items you will have better runs. Do that on every run and you reach the end level in 20 minutes. There are alot of items to buy so make sure to buy alot. Facing the boss is the hardest part but at first try to survive until the last level.

Also jump alot to avoid the smaller monsters.

[DocSeuss]

Anybody has or are going to pre-order Age of Mythology HD?

Don't have the money to, but I am going to get it. It'll probably be the next game I pick up after Tropico and Wolfenstein, which themselves are waiting on me to earn enough Playfire credits for.

 

[Shade]

Thanks for this. I'll be sure to send you the bill when I inevitably put my mouse/controller through my monitor in frustration

Haha, you're welcome. I just about wanted to sacrifice my controller in Demon Souls, thought maybe it would help!

Sweet, I won. Thanks so much for Dark Souls Shade!

Enjoy!

Thank you good sir! Should i play Dark Souls now or wait till it gets patched?

You're welcome! I personally wouldn't wait, but as you can see, there is people on both sides of that fence.

I won? I WON? I actually won something!

Thank you so much.

I'll be sure to try and pay it forward when I have more money.

 

[RionaaM]

This piece of crap refuses to launch. Oh well, guess this is the point where I'm completely done with this franchise.

 

[MehsterChief]

I just beat Ornstein & Smough. I just beat Ornstein & Smough. I JUST BEAT ORNSTEIN &SMOUGH!

Dark Souls is truly amazing. I must jump on that Dark Souls 2 wagon soon, but I think I need a bit of abstinence after finishing the first one, otherwise I'll go insane.

 

[JaseC]

Daily Don't Starve 66% off

3 day deal? Huh.

The DLC launched with a four-week 20% discount, which expires in a few days, so I assume Klei decided to extend the game's Daily discount until then, too. That or Steam's just confused and thinks because one discount is ending in a few days then the same must be true of the others.

[Stallion Free]

Annoying? I think you mean wonderful.

 

[MehsterChief]

Congrats! Most annoying part of the entire game right there.

I agree partly. Yes, having to fight them again and again (I think I fought them around ten times) was annoying. It was also annoying how difficult it was was to summon other players/Solaire because of the tough enemies in the room before the bosses. So I did it on my own.

But the fight itself was fun, I thought. Trying to control them, getting into a position where I could fight Ornstein alone for a few seconds. Amazing. And then the final act with superbadass Smough. All flasks empty, half of his health still remaining...And I did it.

I was literally shaking and screaming in triumph after the fight was over.

 

[Kaper]

Thanks for Hitman, louiedog!

 

[Deleted member 125677]

God Damn that show was awesome. Well the first season anyway.
Cool thing the VHS "movie" which was just the first 3 episodes I think. Had a VCR board game inside of the case. Recall it being pretty fun but it's not like you can replay those sorts of games a lot.

Played a bit of VVVVVV got to this odd area and gave up. Music was kick ass though.

Don't give up

Finally caught up to the thread. Spent all day playing Dark Souls 2 with a friend in co-op. A vendor in Majula sells a ring for 5500 souls that makes co-op summoning of friends an almost 95% guarantee. And anyone who's still hung up on the downgrade should just look up a video of Heide's Tower of Flame for some great artwork and level design.

Also took Unmechanical from your giveaway Lain. Thank you!

 

[Chance Hale]

I beat O&S on my first try because at the PS3 version's launch there was a laser shield that had a magic beam attack that scaled to the damage of your right hand weapon(which I had upgraded a ton) so I was doing 3000 damage per shield blast. Lol.

And damn Dark Soul 2's weird little platforming moments that are terrible.

Heide's is either the first or second level in the game. You haven't seen the literal shit that some of the areas look like. The more beautiful areas make it stand out all the more.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Don't give up

i plan to get back to it. Think i can pass it.

Some of these have been sitting in my spreadsheet for a little while, but they should all work.

Thanks for PA3 now i just need the 4th

Yes I will concede it's only the second area. It looked breathtaking to me though. And the game is pure joy to play through. My point was that the downgrade shouldn't dissuade anyone from playing it.

Hmm playfire is not sync'ing my handful of achievements for the game.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

Looking through the older stuff on Greenlight is more depressing than I anticipated. So many games that haven't even been updated since they were first put up. Some of the games have their developers responding to posts in their game's comments, but the lack of communication for some of the titles on Greenlight is just dreadful.

Here's the thought process:

 

[Sendou]

So even after Trials Fusion launched the store page has no mention of Uplay DRM. This also means there is no 3rd party DRM alert provided by ES. At least I can't see anything like that. Apparently this "feature" is still in the game, yes?

Weird since the store page for Trials Evolution mentions it. Maybe Ubisoft realized nobody really wants it and decided they don't have to mention it anywhere. Pretty dodgy.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Thanks Milamber for STCC!

I really hope this game will be good, I love the music already. Here's a copy for anyone interested -

Amazing giveaway! Entered!

Another 2013-indie-game I wanted to play for a long time and it's now a Daily Deal on Steam. Bought. Now it's just Papers, Please and Gone Home left.

Haven't been keeping track on this years indie games, but I am looking forward to Hyper Light Drifter, Transistor and Below.

I hadn't heard this, what a shame. I was hoping to play it this year, but oh well.

When are we going to know of Valve will be at E3? Is it usually something that gets announced or do people have to pester them?

Wait I'm going senile seems to be moved to late 2014....close enough I guess.

 

[ashecitism]

I think the devs said they're targeting 2014 Winter, but if it gets delayed to early 2015, then so be it.

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

Half Life or Half Life Source?

 

[Milamber]

Half Life or Half Life Source?

Yes




EDIT: I prefer Half Life. Just because I can max it. Easier too.

 

[ashecitism]

Just go with the original. HL:S is not that good when it comes to bringing HL1 to Source. Black Mesa did a better job with that.

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

Thanks .

That seals it.

Thanks fellow SteamGAFers, Half Life vanilla it is!

So, I lost my game in Civ V. I was so worried about the Uns (who were lead by an idiot. He didn't even try to attack the continent I was on, despide having an entire continent for himself) that I didn't pay attention to Hollands. I built the UN, and they won the vote because the had all the city-states in their pocket. And I was this close to a scientific victory.

Starting a new game is so awful, you can't do nothing.

 

[DocSeuss]

What's with Hitman Contracts going on sale in Europe way more often than in the US?

 

[Miguel81]

Did anyone catch the Uplay deal the other day for Skyrim Legendary ($13)? I'm kicking myself because I was unaware they gave Steam keys.

Congrats, did you solo?

I did too! Although I was a White Phantom helping a brotha out. It still counts, holy shit huge Smough goes down fast. Surprised how many times I got summoned. A Brazilian guy messaged me and asked me if I was high, most likely because I failed all my parries on the silver knights due to the insane lag.
