That durability bug in SotFS seems pretty brutal. 6 minutes of playing and a broken sword? ouch.

I don't think anything she brought up is going to change how fundamentally flawed I found the experience.
Pretty pixel art, good music, rest of it felt like a repetitive drag with more cringe-worthy dialog than Life is Strange's teen vocabulary.

It's the same as it was in Vanilla PC.
Is Modbot working? I entered for a key about 10 minutes ago and haven't received a message. I also have 18 posts in the March thread.

you have to enter for a key, then post 5 more times, then enter for the key again, then 5 more posts.
otherwise, modbot doesn't recognize the request

ehh don't sweat it. sometimes modbot has a brain fart and delivers keys like an hour later.
is this a troll
plz no
oh thats true
never noticed that
lol
i guess
it's mostly that she reframed the game as a positive female character situation which usually compels me to give games a shot since that's kind of all that i play these days lol

I actually really liked where it was in Vanilla. It made your weapon kind of feel like ammo in the early Resident Evils, where I'd keep an eye on the durability from time to time or be prepared to switch to a backup.
With the ease of access the bonfires gave, I never had a problem with it.

Really? I don't recall it being that bad when facing normal enemies. There was that whole problem is hitting the wall causing things to degrade 2x as fast.

That would make for interesting threads, I'm sure we'd reach the limit much more often.

Hahaha. I bloody well wish. I know I'm due for a pay review soon but I think I'm going to fall some way short of the 'average'.
Batman is a license, but that's a special case since 1) it's within WB's house and 2) isn't third party cars/etc. licensed like Dirt 2/3.
Dirt 2's license has expired. Codemasters can't do a porting if they wanted to, because they have to renegotiate the license. They could do that, but they have no intentions of doing it. Double-so when they just took a year to port Dirt 3. Again: People should give up on it, they've already stated they have no intentions of doing it.
Origin can go fuck themselves until they allow gifting.

BF:Hardline is already on sale too (not that cheap yet).
It's huge. Sales data for every game on Steam, updated every day. I think they're still trying to get their methodology right, so there's too much variance in their figures to draw too many conclusions at this point.
Look at Crimzon Clover for instance: The site estimated 56,348 owners last week, and 30,852 today.
Edit: Data on countries as well? Nice
Edit 2: They don't have data on games that have been removed on Steam. Can't track the Football Manager series or see how rare my copies of Mafia and Wolfenstein are.

It really surprises me that this is somehow not in Origin yet. Steam's gifting ability surely helped quite a bit in market growth, on top of everything else Valve did right at the time, so you'd think EA would take a look at that and want that in pronto.
Kinda crazy that a streaming suite was available in the Origin client before gifting happened.
Yeah, the data is incorrect, but seems to be close.

Anyone else getting black names instead of orange when using dark theme here? Freaking weird.

Is Gamestop still selling Riddick Steam keys for $5? If so, can someone grab me one and I'll pay him/her back via PayPal?
Well I definitely had more than 5 posts since my last Modbot win.
Someone else won the key so it doesn't matter now. Thanks anyways.

If anyone is interested I managed to do it. Humble Bundle gives you a key that you have to redeem here
You then create an account and if you link your Steam account they activate it for you on Steam

It's also possible that someone else won before you did. ModBot seems to be slow with the updates today, as I received the giveaway receipt 14 minutes before ModBot edited my post to show that the key was taken.
That's possible too. Oh well, congratulations to the winners!
Those Crimzon Clover numbers are incredible.

plz dont tell me you entered for the torchlight 2 key
that game is great and anyone who wants to try it should just buy it
Interesting - did Valve reinstate oauth activations for keys? That might solve some of the issue with, say, Frontier's lack of interest with distributing keys to past Elite: Dangerous purchasers. Eliminates concerns of a secondary market without a lot of back-end work anyways.
edit: Now that I think about it was probably just set up before Valve ditched support for key redemption, so it's "grandfathered" in like the older Humble bundles and such.
All Valve has to do is spam free weekend, those are returned by API long time after free weekend ends.
I had similar project and it's one of two main issues.
Bigger issue being ability to handle very large database, I have scanned around ~5 million users and it's slowass and tends to crash due to out of memory.
There's other API to grant packages.
Oh, nice! Thanks, I had no idea they'd provided another option in the API.

Free weekend most likely. I recall there was one last week or so.

so turning it around with the magic of taking this site as straight fact, 230k sales for eternity at the cheapest of its stupidly named editions at $45 each, with steam's 30% off is about 7m.
probably less since paypal and a lot of those owners might be backers but still
pretty nice

Duck Dynasty needs a 75% sale. Will buy immediately.
I imagine Pillars has a much bigger percentage of GOG owners than the average PC release too.
