oh wow that's really cooloh, look zky-zky - you can play Hand of Fate now
i wish more games did this
lol i watched a single episode of that and i was like
ok matoko has blue hair and a sick jacket, i can kind of get into this but damn that episode was boring as fuck
i'm considering watching stand alone complex in the near future, i'm between tenchi muyo (<3), bakemonogatari (this friend of mine keeps telling me to watch it and tbh i'll probably love it) and sac (mostly cos i love gits1 so much, even tho i think sac artstyle is kind of a huge step down)
is that what ithink it is?!?
I'd wait until version 2.0 hits and buy it during the inevitable sale that will come along with it.
Well crap I can't buy shit from GMG =S
Will keep those in mind, thanks. Also. it seems like decision making plays a very important role in the game which is great to be honest. Its rather annoying when a RPG says our in game decisions matter a lot when actually they dont.
Lol, that sounds amazing. Kinda excited about the game now.
we waited more two years for Wild Season to come to EA... Stardew Valley is our last hope now.
ya that was one of only two Rune Factory alikes in the making for PC, other is Stardew Valley also to be released this year, but now I'm way less sure it'll actually happen

So it seems.
i mean, let's be clear
there's a set story, some things happen despite of what you choose, or at least a direction in which things have to go. but there's a lot of things that can change in the meantime, who you're allied with, who becomes your handler, who you're allied with, which weapons, intel and perks are available to you, missable cutscenes, missable character bios, lots of things
the order in which you complete missions has an effect on story events and people will comment on the way you're dressed (say you went with full armor to a mission that was just meeting a dude in a bar), it's really a super detailed game in that aspect
but yeah it's not gonna be completely different, but there's enough meaningful variations and flavor stuff that makes you able to have very different playthroughs
i beat it i think 4 times and managed to get different end bosses, i got doublecrossed by people i never suspected of in my other playthroughs, i killed pretty much every character, you can do lots of different things
yeah it's pretty hilarious. you're gonna get backstabbed a lot if you play like this, but that just makes it all the more fun
so much hype for this
i've been wanting a new harvest moon thingie to play for like a decade

I was hyped until I saw that price.
Never pay more than 20 bucks for a computer game ;__;
I'm pretty sure Stardew Valley won't be any cheaper. We know that Rune Factory/Harvest Moon games are way too much work for indies, that's why it's taking so long, and the price is in accordance with that.

Am I imagining things in a drunken haze or did someone say Obsidian had hopes to explore the Alpha Protocol universe in the future? Always makes me sad that the game was launched in the way it was, and that a sequel seems nigh impossible given how open ended the endings are.

Dang. Amazingly when I searched multiple keywords to see if it'd been brought up, none of them were in either of these.
well then .... looks like creating scambots is going to get pretty expensive
I should have thought to try "scambots" or "already" instead of "invite", "phishing", etc.

It was 1989... twentysix years ago... oh my...
Almost fake edit:

Koei Tecmo: One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 PC version might not have online play
... aaaaaaand here we go ... another quality KT port ... as expected
... aaaaaaand here we go ... another quality KT port ... as expected
obs said they would love to go back to ap but that it's unlikely for it gonna happen because of budget
like you can't really kickstart an alpha protocol because of how many cutscenes you'd have to make
tho maybe like a demake that keeps the amount of reactivity but is just 2d and maybe just has floating heads instead of full blown cutscenes
they'd still have to keep it relatively short in rpg terms and i think vo is kind of a must for something like alpha protocol
but of course if a big publisher showed up it would be awesome to have like a full blown sequel
but nothing of this is gonna happen, so i'll just keep f5'ing the nexus to see if there's an anti-spider mod for eternity released yet...

I didn't know musou games have online play.
Is it co-op mission or something like that?
I've read Wild Season EA disclaimer and according to it and my understanding, a game is not even half done, it has only one season and lacks almost all features, that's after two years, yet they plan to finish and fully release it in 5 months while on EA. Why I can't believe it?
Oh well, we'll wait more and see what Stardew Valley will offer and when.
It's clear by this point that KT games can't have online on PC for reasons

Can't buy anything. They blocked Taiwan, can't even access the site unless I use a VPN. And most of the time they rejected my US cash fun accounts.

Seems like KT don't know how to implement online play for their PC ports.
that's pretty weird, it's a pretty cool game
i wish someone taught me the secret to success tho
from my own play i've been focusing on food and the building resource (the red one) and trying to asap get one of the characters to learn the skill that lets them work on a machine (i think the sword lady gets it at level 4?)
so i leave that character working on the machine while my other character that's more fight-oriented just walks around exploring rooms desperately trying to find some more people to add to the party
i haven't found that much use for the science stuff or like the drones and shit, except maybe upgrading the food machine
I'm really puzzled by some publishers behaviour...
Steam got the bigger userbase nowadays, but Steam users are still 2nd class citizens for most japanese publishers...
And this proves it too...
I really can't understand... with bad ports you potentially harm the size of your customers base. And what about the missing ports? There are thousands of games which could be ported, kept "alive" and monetized which are frequently requested, but rather than porting them to Steam it seems they prefer to kill the games, kill the IPs, kill the franchises, bankrupt the company and commit seppuku. Why?
Furthermore since a lot of these publishers own hundreds of games, if they make a port in the blue every 3-4-5 years, it'll need hundreds years to port everything... dat foresight... (come on Sega! go on with your awesome ports!)

Japanese pride.
Yeah it's silly, but I think there's already a pattern.
Japanese devs are still testing the Steam market in the past couple years. They're just slow at making up their mind, is all.

I know that are a lot of content on these games and I'm glad we are finally getting a Harvest Moon like on PC, but so far Wild Season haven't been able to caught my attention. Maybe after it's out of EA I may buy it.

I remember DOA:LR having the same exact problem. The one with special characters.
Gotta give it to R*. They do patch quick.
Jedi Outcast is so good
I really loved that in the beginning you were forced (heh) to use guns and only later the lightsaber and jedi-weapons were unlocked. If everything was unlocked from the get-go, I would have never bothered with traditional weapons but instead I cycled furiously through all my arsenal.
Such a great game.
I think it was a mistake that they abandoned traditional singleplayer campaign with one character. It hurt the sequel.
Very nifty. Awesome work!
I ran out of compliments for all the cool stuff you add constantly
Yeah, totally reads like slowly easing the people in on the idea that the trailer fidelity won't be reached.
The inevitable downgrade thread will be really quite something.
Why do pubs/devs do such things with initial teasers/trailers anyway?
It's not like folks would be outraged with a trailer being not CG-level but less. They only hurt themselves. Maybe they actually want to induce "graphics-drama" ala no news is bad news, publicity is all that counts?
That is what Valve should be doing! Great of them.well then .... looks like creating scambots is going to get pretty expensive
I am not joking. In the past 6 months I had only one legit friend request among hundreds of phishers.
Almost blocked out of muscle-memory.
What a nice sight real life humans can be!
Congrats on the waste of time & money !
i kid, i kid
you are Portugal's Steam-MVP after all
Yeah, I focus on production resource too, there seems to be no other way as you need it for attacking drones too.
The problem is with not being able to power rooms at any sane rate and having too many dark rooms is asking for death.

Man, for all the negative rep Xbox division garnered over the past, I gotta give huge, huge props to MS with their incentives with Dreamspark.
The things they are giving away are just awesome. It really is.
There are so many software-packets, I don't even know what 70% of them do but I see some super nifty stuff like Visual Studio Pro, XNA Game Studio, Kinect SDK and so much more.
MS does some cool stuff. Just not gaming-wise imo

yeah, the way i've been playing is basically if there are more than two or three dark rooms then i'll probably just stop exploring and move on to the next level
you can use your dudes to prevent dark rooms from spawning baddies so you can just leave your support guys in a dark room while your beefy guys keep pushing forward
but yeah power is the most critical resource and i'm not sure if some carries from floor to floor?
