Guys i just downloaded and installed Idle Master, and i have a question. Does it need to install all the games that i want the cards from...? It's currently idling in bad rats (which i installed), so i don't know what's going to happen when it reaches a game that isn't installed yet.

I'm asking because i don't see bad rats physically opened. So i dunno what kind of guru magic this is.

They don't need to be installed.

Oh my god so i capped my internet speed when i didn't need to? I literally downloaded like 70+ GB of Steam games in the span of an hour or so thinking they all need to be installed for this to work. I'm capped now. Goodbye 100+Mbps internet. I'll see you when you've recovered from what i did to you.

WHY AM I SO DUMB.

Higurashi When They Cry Steam Edition - Ch.1 Onikakushi will be out on May 15, 2015.

Also,


Game price looks to be roughly $6.

This game has the worst blurb I've seen

Higurashi When They Cry is a sound novel. The music, backgrounds and characters work together to create a world that is the stage of a novel for the user to read. They laugh and cry and get angry. The user takes the point of view of the protagonist to experience the story.

mmm new thread by australians complaining about their game prices and the exchange rate.

I dunno why aussies always get the short end of the stick.


I think SEA is one of the few regions that actually get digital games cheaper than retail.

played like 5 more hours of recettear than i shouldve but finally got through that 100 floor dungeon

was actually really quick cos i was running past most floors

finally some cool, dumb and adorable story stuff happened on that dungeon so i'm pretty pleased

unlocked yet another dungeon but i think this one's more like a challenge thing. i kinda want to play a bit with the other characters but they're so underleveled that i just don't feel it's worth the bother (you get arma at lvl 1 wtf -__-)

i also want to know what you get for merchant level 40 and 50 but no way i'm gonna grind 20 more merchant levels

but yea recettear is a pretty great game

Funstock is still down. At least they sent me an e-mail explaining that the problems with fulfilling my order were caused by "unprecedented traffic volumes". Just a heads up if someone else is dealing with the site as well.

It's always funny how you can go to a store and buy a physical copy of a game at a considerably cheaper price than an online digital version.

Just not 'ha ha' funny.

What have i become...
Derp

You could ask before downloading the games
I had absolutely no idea it was even possible to idle without having the game even installed, so the idea of asking something like that felt stupid. That is... Until i launched Idle Master and it said it was idling in Bad Rats and i couldn't actually see Bad Rats anywhere on the screen. It was at that moment, Derp knew he fucked up.

In the days before the steam transition into the SGD, we were paying US prices for everything and 72-80 sgd for full retail games. Exchange rate was better then so it came out to ~60-65 usd each.

And SG NEVER has physical game sales. NEVER. I have NEVER seen a single sale in my life.

RRP for most games here is $99.95 AUD but come launch day every retailer is trying to out do the competition and you can often save $20-$30 easily.

Nobody pays RRP here unless you shop at EB Games. And if you willingly shop at EB Games (without price matching) then you deserve to pay RRP.

I think SEA is one of the few regions that actually get digital games cheaper than retail.

Regional pricing is great. Obviously it's far from perfect (like you said some countries that should be paying more get away with it, like Singapore in SEA), but I think it's helped massively to get countries like Russia to pirate less. Then there's the regional pricing in Latin America, which hopefully also gets more people into legal PC gaming.
I just wish they wouldn't force people to pay MORE than the US prices that they paid before. That does suck for most of Europe, NZ, Canada and Australia. But that's up to the publishers.

~job interview soon~

I'm in that weird funk where I don't want to play ANYTHING but I want to play SOMETHING.

It's frustrating.

Go play some Dark Messiah or Arx Fatalis. That shit always gets me giddy.
I spent $30 some odd dollars on a pen and a journal. I'm actually trying to play games.

Could be worse. I have a £40 pen.

Aint got no journal. What'd you pick up? ;o
TY guys. I'm not a loli canine tho :/

Who's this lady?
My grandma. This friday it was 6 weeks since she passed. So a month and a half shy of 79 years. Not too shabby, but if not for sodding cancer she'd have made it to 89 with ease, and been just as much of a breeze as always.

Alas it wasn't so.
How does that kool aid taste?

iZ7rkbNHy2AmI.jpg


Cause you drank it

... I've never actually tasted Kool-aid D;

And well, I have a decent pair of cans, but also a great surround sound headset for FPS games, which I play too damn much of.

Also I'm not in a situation where I really need music headphones, because I have a great speaker setup for my music needs.

Ofcourse, not everyone can get that kinda thing going, especially if you live in an apartment complex or some ish.

Now, really, just how good is a modmic? Is it worth getting over a so-so headset mic?
 
Here's a little something I whipped up while watching Avatar the last airbender marathon.

Happy Easter everyone.

ps hopefully it all worked out properly

Fuck you EA.

Why the hell can't I buy the English version of Dragon's Age: Inquisition?
Why the hell I can only have either Russian (wtf?) or Polish subtitles?
English or GTFO.

Also, WoR in FF6 is a lot better than WoB was.
Finally out of the tutorial phase of the game, there's some challenge in the game as well (not much, but it's better than nothing)
Dunno if I'll do the GBA additions, they all seem to be grindfests (as with other TOSE remasters, remembering those Chrono Trigger DS things still makes me shudder). Probably not...

And that's why regions must go, we live in the world where someone born in France to british parents can live in Barcelona and that's just normal way of things, nobody can tell us which language we want to play in.

I would say I told you so, but I won't (><)

Where did you buy the game?
I think there's language pack available for download on the game information. Not sure though, it's been a while since I loaded up Origin.

I didn't buy it, just venting my rage that I won't be able to play the game I want in a legal way. :\
There's a free language DLC that has English audio. No way to enable English subtitles though. :\

Where are you based? Living in Aus helps, because when Murican's tease us for our slow internet (on average), it encourages us to upgrade. So in our house we make sure we have the best of the best when it comes to internet speeds lol.
