well both games are coming-of-age stories about teenager girls. gone home deals more with sexuality and lis seems to be more about accepting yourself, confidence and such, tho i felt the first episode hinted a relationship between chloe and her other friend

i've heard people call both games hipsterish a lot, because of its subject matter and their art styles with like folksky friday night lights americana thing or its 90s throwback casette tape stuff in gone home's case

also that doesn't mean lis isn't also very much like twd since both games play so similarly, it's why most people's immediate reaction was to think of both twd and gone home, they're not mutually exclusive!

I guess I can understand that. Didn't think of it that way.

For you.
People are posting docs from Police in Mgs thread. I'm out, they also provided a wrong translation, I'm pretty sure this can cause problems for Gaf, mods should close the thread.

They didn't post the docs, another site did. It won't cause any problems to GAF at all, and it wouldn't even if it was a GAF member posting it directly on GAF. Police reports are public information. No law against publishing them online.

From the four roguelike games recommended t me, two are first person and I just happen to be semi-allergic to FP games in general (plus I really disliked Tower of Guns even though I got it for free). Sunless Sea and Abyss Odyssey look awesome though: I've added them to my wishlist for now as they're barely discounted, though. Thanks all!

i mean, as someone that really liked mass effect's universe i'd definitely be interested in a new game

tho i don't have much trust in bioware being able to replicate what made me1 great, i would like to see what they come up with for the series and how they figure out what the next step is after shepard

also shut up

The science genre must be one of the easiest to write for - it doesnt need to be anything groundbreaking either.

Also NEVER!

As much shit as CoD gets the mission where you're assaulting
Spacey's (come on you knew he wasn't a goody toe shoes)
villa has some better stealth mechanics and options than fully fledge stealth focused games. Granted they have gone the way of the dodo as of late.
 
Yeah, I don't like the new style they are going for.
The old style was very nice because it wasn't afraid to use colors.
The new style is getting closer and closer to DA2's shit mountain brownification.
(Because brown is serious and LoL is serious gaming)
I like how my eyes no longer bleed with the new pallette.
Cant say I'll bother with paid mods.

Dota 2, CSGO and TF2 almost run on user "mods
hats
".

Certainly not. But... you should seek the Nox Special. Even without the series it's an amazing piece for itself. The story of a clockmaker slowly plunging into madness.
maybe

got too much anime on my plate right now to add another one

i dunno about that

part of the thing mass effect was so cool is because the universe bioware created was super interesting and well developed with lots of cool races and cool conflicts and lots of mystery. the reapers were scary as fuck in me1 and the galaxy really felt like a weird and wondrous place to me in me1 and to a lesser degree in 2. also the visual designs of the races and the whole retro-futuristic-classic-but-kind-of-modernized look of the armor and guns and tech was really cool, as was their take on magic. and similarly the music was really fitting too, as was the voiceacting and the cutscenes and everything. the production values of that series is amazing

overall the design of mass effect as a series is fantastic and in no small part that's thanks to the confident writing of me1 and how good bioware was in me1 and 2 to make you feel like you were as much of a badass as shepard was supposed to be

like for the most part they really allow you to be like a super future beyond-the-law space magic badass cop that like punches whoever she wants and sleeps with gross looking aliens and shit

Ah, sod the haters. COD games are fun if you're not expecting anything other than Call of Duty. Sure they've got bigger, louder and sillier, but sod it. It's like all those people who think they're film critics and can't dare bring themselves to enjoy a good Friday Night Action flick because there's not some deep hidden message that only intellects can understand.

Same with people who bemoan 'college humour' in computer games. If you don't like it, fine, but it doesn't mean other people can't like it. Variety is the spice of life and all that.

good lord idk who was watching but I was sweating blood and when I finally got it the game gave me just 2 stars

fuckin lovely planet ughh



also I really wanna grab Rebirth, but it's dumb that after release I still dont' get a discount for owning the previous game. The price that's on now is basically what I could have paid for it on release isnt it? only time owning the previous game amounted for something

might still grab it. dunno

Wow Rhaknar! 45 games, 15 minutes, not a free-for-all.

This is some serious game theory shit. Still, great giveaway. :)

I thought if you didnt put in any rules it WAS a free for all?

oh well, I got so much shit from past giveaways Ive long stopped caring

Maniac mentioned that some of the mods he's been using got pulled and transitioned to the new subscription model. Even if this sort of thing weren't automated on Valve's end, it would be trivially easy to remove an existing mod and add a "new" one (the same one) with a subscription cost.

I mean if you still have the files saved that's one thing, but I think the Skyrim launcher will look at your existing workshop subscriptions and (maybe?) even delete the ones you're no longer subscribed to.

Bingo.


We're also seeing stuff that's discontinued and unsupported pop back up with paid versions whilst the free are left broken, despite the fact that it directly affects someones' enjoyment if they have a save with the mod installed already.

It's quite a douchey thing.
I was going to reply and then Stump stepped in.

And correct me if I'm wrong but has anyone explicitly stated that if you've already downloaded and used a mod you'll have to pay to keep using it? I thought this was for future downloads and updates.

You can't change a previously uploaded mod to be a paid mod. Seems like a fair bit are simply removing the old ones and only implementing paid ones.

not gonna lie was hoping for $15

I was gonna say its 5€ too much

but its actually 10€ too much

also sorry for the dupes, but I did have the disclaimer for a reason. it was just bundle spring cleaning, and I guess I forgot to check the little "used key" box on groupees a few times.

Ending aside, it's not that bad. It has a lot of great moments.
Make sure you check out the dlc, with the exception of Omega they're great. Leviathan is crucial to the story, it's a travesty that such important content isn't in the main game.
Citadel is one of the best pieces of SP dlc ever made.
