Not PS4 owners, Bloodborne is great!
It is pretty dumb stuff, but I wouldn't worry about steam review upvotes and downvotes. For every TB downvote there will be some upvote from somebody who was a tester.

It's my birthday giveaway
Happy birthday Khaleesi!
But it's not like they are voting based on merit. That review has only 100 more votes than the next review which isn't nearly as in depth. They are upvoting every negative review and downvoting massively any positive review. For a few days only negative reviews were even showing up on the first page because they were all like 90 percent helpful and the positive ones were downvoted into 50 percents.
It's balancing out now because people are realizing what's happened.

My vacation gave me a chance to experience the Steam GAF chat.
More people should hang out in that cool dude zone.

Some of those complaints are weird or exaggerated (like the time you need to get back to most bosses, also you can skip some and still complete the game) and I disagree with all of his three major points but yeah, I'm not talking about those reviews and if it helped you to avoid a mispurchase then that's cool. At least he tries to explain his issues.

Would be cool if I could connect to it via IRC like the Twitch chat.

But then you wouldn't have totally rad Steam emoticons.

But all we're doing is just spamming emoticons.
It's not like I have the "totally rad" ones on Steam anyway.

Will steam games find my save files if I relocate (via Properties) the My Documents and Saved Games folder ?

Thank you all for the birthday wishes.
Yeah, alexandros getting junior'd while derailers got away untouched was sad to see.

It's a shame that Bethesda never bothered to go through the effort to rerelease Prey considering they own it. But with Prey 2 being canceled I guess it makes sense. No point in reminding people.
I dunno, the time to get back to the bosses DOES add up. Double so with the frustrating bow-charge and arrow-magnetpull mechanic that makes you a sitting duck. Just going by the "prototype demo" that was more than enough to put me off the title.
I mean if you want to beat me in two seconds on entering the arena until I figure out "hey I need to roll here" fine. But when I'm trying to prepare my attack only to get beaten because the game actively hinders you to make it more "difficult/frustrating?" I dunno, I don't really care for that.
I mean compare Titan Souls combat (as "shallow" as it is) to D. Souls or Bloodbornes combat where you're able to roll through most attacks to cancel them AND avoid enemy attacks if you want (wonky hitboxes aside). There's a pretty telling difference between the two when it comes to combat design.

Welcome to the Cool Dude Zone.

A "journalist" like him and a fanbase like that? Truly a match made in heaven.
This developer is so cute, he didn't say about credits before.
Hey there,
Fantastic. Thank you so much. One final Q… This one is for the NOT A HERO credits. How is your name spelt in English letters?
Cheers!
Best,
Jamie Wotton
I understood 3 things from your post. There is a cute developer, Not a hero has credits, Someone's name is not in English.
ya, that about covers it.
I won't even ask how you figured that out from the post in question (><)He probably was in beta, helped with some bug or something and they want to list him in the game credits so the dev is asking for his name

I don't think moderators are divided into teams, lol
Of course.
I'm a big Firefly (and Joss Whedon in general) fan and I'd love a game about Firefly, but why an MMO? Make an adventure, an action game, an RPG, but an MMO? Why? :/

So this glitch works indepedent from one's store regions. Very nice.
Now to test if it works for Germany I need to test Wolfenstein New Order. Folks, just send a Steam key via PM.

The enemies' attack and move patterns are designed with the player's limitations in mind, make him more agile and every fight would become too easy. Sure you could introduce several phases but then people would complain about doing the same thing over and over again (
the very last boss was the worst because of exactly that
Not officially of course but there's a war waging in the shadows.
Now you will play GTA V in the way it's meant to be played XD

Top 5 selling games of the past week in the UK (at least)
Rather surprising that MKX outsold GTA5
Remember that's not taking into account digital sales.
yeah, singleplay (+coop) RPG would have been nice to have, seems fitting too.
what do you mean?.
Oh ha, bloody, ha. I've always been adverse to compression artefacts and that ain't going to change any time soon!

Well I'm guessing that's just retail. It's £39.99 everywhere I've seen selling it physically in shops so Steam or other digital retailers are offering the same deal or better.

Retail is stronger in Europe than in America, but still only a small piece of the total sales.

And it (barely) was when I posted, so everything is good
Oh, I see, I don't have much to recommend then since I tenf to play for the gameplay rather than the story (obviously having at least a decent one helps but definitely not the focus for me) so I'll ask a friend who has a similar taste (but more into VNs) for suggestions

I think that was the case since the beginning, given that Italy was an option for me right at the start.Edit: Also, I'm no longer given the option to change back to RU. That was a one-time thing. Now the list is IP-based:
Top to bottom:
- Current store region
- Current region as determined by IP address (if different to the above)
- Steam Support link
Marvel or DC threads have gotten way worse, except without banning anyone which can be pretty grating since it's always the same bunch of people shitting up the threads with "us vs them" garbage.

1.6m on Steam alone if you take into account SteamSpy's stats. Last report from a Take 2 quarterly they said GTA V has sold 45 mil across all 4 platforms at the time where I think the data for 360 was ~19mil and PS3 something slightly lower but that's just going off wikipedia citations and not digging through earnings calls and what have you. What I'd be interested to see is how well the PC version sold compared to the PS4 and XO version each. They were marketed up to the eye balls and had a 6 month headstart from the joint announcement and subsequent PC delays.
