Most people use 50ppp.
Haha, I was about to say the same thing. Pity it has no collectables.
This is your Tumblr, isn't it? You can't fool me!

Good ol capra demon
All three!
I have had Invisible, Inc since day one early access.
Transistor with playfire money.
The Forest with wallet funds.
I didn't know Invisible, Inc was this close to a full release. Knowing klei, there will still be frequent post launch support.
I received an email from then 1-2 weeks ago that it will hit early access in the next 10 weeks.

Noticed this during the new Wolfenstein trailer....split second after a guy gets blasted in the face...
Looks almost like his entire facial skin was blown off.

Most people are wrong.
Capra Demon being hard is just a little in-joke. You actually meet director Frank Capra and play with two puppies while watching It's A Wonderful Life (Arsenic and Old Lace if you're wearing the Old Witch's Ring).
Not until the 1st
I better get Mr. Orange my Forest blurb for the thread.
I've been busy with Souls and Finals and it slipped my mind.
Ok downsampling fans getting Child of Light, this gets a much better benefit than Rayman Origins even on 2D forground art.
A bit hacked together and sadly only pics of the menu screen but I am still at work and having to faff around with RDC
I'll let the pics speak for themselves.
1080x1920
2540x1440
3200x1800
Couldn't get GeDoSaTo to work but will have a proper play around when I get home. Saying that though even through a remote spotty internet connection and just using 3200x1800 over 1920x1080 really is a marked improvement and really looks like it can make the art shine, moreover if you have a higher resolution monitor.
To be fair I wasn't expecting much but the artbook did at least look like it might have been a bit better in the promo shots but they always end up being renders of something in progress. A hard backed one would have been nice (and from someone that speaks to a variety of printers daily can tell you they aren't that expensive to make) but the quality of the selected artwork is very good. A mixture of character and concept art with a few promo pieces. Though as I said it's not really worth the £4 extra or more if you're importing unless things like this appeal to you.

I loved Brothers, man that game almost break my soul as it really close to home.
Mediocre game? Try Remember Me, good music, so so fighting and awesome visuals and locales.

What games are in your backlog?
Dark Sector is supposed to be a very average game, though. It's probably a good one to play if you want to play a mediocre game.
Do we have an updated list of what people are working on?
I'm debating on making one for Tabletop Simulator but if someone's already working on it..
Dark Void.
Have a look through this thread and see if anybody has claimed it. The OP finally began updating the opening post again but use the search function just to be on the safe side.
I like my feet how I like my cheese.
Out of this fucking planet
Weren't you the one who posted that in a previous thread? You won't fool me!
Just finished ep 2 of Narcissu
Second game is considerably longer and with more character development than the first, and I enjoyed it a lot more than the first, being in setsumi and himeko's perspective I think were a lot more interesting than the protagonist of the first game.
I think it's worth the time and they are also free.

I haven't played Dark Sector, but Velvet Assassin is a neat if you like stealth.
Can be a little too hard sometimes. Setting is great, story is mediocre.
Chusma! chusma! pffff!
If you are a good person with good taste, you will fucking hate Velvet Assassin after 15 minutes and remove it.
It's a game crossed off you backlog in the quickest time possible!
There's always humanity asset. I quit that game after seeing the title main menu.

Have played nothing but Dark Souls 2 and Croixleur this week... With four days off coming I have no idea what I'm gonna do. Need to plan classes and finish articles as well as prepare for upcoming game releases.
There is just so little time available, argh.
And I keep finding keys from past bundles bumping up my game count and, therefore, my never ending backlog...
I REALLY want to declare war on backlog but not even before declaring it I must admit I lost it.
Maybe you guys can help me, any games that are easy to clear or 100%? (aka, no more than 6-8 hours)

Dark Sector. As a forewarning, both have awful AI.
Alpha, Dysfunctional Systems is easy to get all achievements for.
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
I played through Dark Sector. It's not very memorable. It's better than, say, Dark Void, but I can't imagine you'll be able to remember anything besides "it's black and green and you can throw a spiky blade at bad guys and it's like gears of war sort of but the last boss sucks" a week after you play it. Give it a shot.

The only memorable/cool stuff in Dark Sector got pilfered for Warframe anyway.

Hmmm... Saoirse Ronan confirmed to play Lux in live-action LoL movie? >.>

Do you really want a mediocre game or a just a small good game?

Go play Ultionus: A Tale of Petty Revenge, while we go through your backlog and make a list for you.
Editville:
Most Telltale games are like 2 hours per episode and don't require any special attention to 100%. Wallace & Gromit (4 episodes), Sam & Max S3 (5 episodes, but you should play S1 & S2 first), Hector (3 episodes), and Back to the Future (5 episodes) are 17 games right there.
Lume and Trauma are both very short and easy to 100%.
The 39 Steps is literally just a book-on-powerpoint (and a pretty fantastic book at that), so no missable achievements there.
I'm assuming the stuff you played less than an hour of was idling for cards? In which case, Stacking is also easy to 100%.
Green Light Bundle finally sent out keys for Beware Planet Earth a few hours ago. Here's mine:

Beware Planet Earth --MB-3873B9B43733E9AA- Taken by Cth
I've had quite the streak of excellent games.
Resident Evil 4 -> Call of Juarez: Gunslinger -> Year Walk -> Fez -> Portal 2 -> Dark Souls II.
Thanks, I was thinking more about Steam Recommendations as opposed to an |OT| though.
Speaking of which, thanks for Beware Planet Earth!

What about Stacking? When not going for every solution it shouldn't take too long (says me who has only finished the first chapter).
Or Cryostasis. Though not a spring game.
Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP?

Funny enough, I did try to play Stacking as you saw but it didn't click much with me... I may try to go back to it.
Thanks for all the recommendations!

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
Speaking of mediocre games; I put a lot of time into Lucius for some reason.
What weird little game. The mansion is a pretty great setting, in that it has a lot of believable little lived-in details. The deaths are all enoyably grisly. But It's surprisingly rote and humorless. Rote, as in it's really just a puzzle game with one solution per level. There's no riffing on where, who, how, or when of your murders, so you're really just following vague instructions.
And for such a ridiculous concept, it's surprising how seriously the game takes itself. Or maybe it's just incredibly dry humor? I expected a lot more levity for playing as a mute, murderous six year old with a cartoonishly evil devil dad. The most amusing things so far have been glitchy cut scenes in which people sitting inside bookcases have conversations, or curse Lucious as he (unintentionally) hovers two feet off the ground.
I haven't beaten it, and could see forgetting about it finishing it for months if I didn't think I could knock it out in another sitting. I don't know what note to end on other than a half hearted shrug. Seems like a real waste of a fun idea.

Ah so Gamer's gate has the cheapest it's been so far. Any chance it'd go for 75% come Summer or Winter sale?
Yes
