Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Nobody cares, right?
Right.

I do. I love Humble's mobile bundles because the games they include are usually stripped of their in-app purchases which is really nice. In this case, Kingdom Rush Origins is the standout here since it comes with all heroes unlocked.

Riddick is trash (unfortunately) and I haven't really heard of the rest of them.

Speaking of Android in the Steam thread, I really, really want a new Android Steam app. With all of these movies being put on Steam it seems like it'd benefit them to have a new app with Fire TV, Android TV, and Chromecast support to play them as well as game streaming.

You're right. That's not a shitty thread. More on the line of shittier or shittiest. There's no discussion other than "...right?" or the whatever the opposite of that is. That's just a posit. What's the point in responding... right?

Edit: new games for Humble Indie are tomorrow... right? ;)

I don't know if saying it's NSFW allows for straight up bare tits. TiTS, maybe. Might want to edit that~

In similarly NSFW news, IndieHaven did an interview with Christine Love on her new VN "Ladykiller in a Bind" which is going to focus heavily on the sexual antics of more lewd VNs while criticizing the way they've become accepted tropes. The subject of Steam comes up:

J: Ladykiller in a Bind may be the first game on Steam with outright sexual content. That’s a huge thing for the service and could possibly open doors to more developers if that happens. How does that make you feel? Would you like seeing more explicit games, even if that opens the doors for less …”mature” games?



C: I have no idea who’ll be distributing Ladykiller or not, right now we’re just at the “wait and see” phase. I will say that I’m not going to cut anything in order to get on a particular platform, since the sex is absolutely crucial to the story.



Personally, I’d love to see more games attempt to handle sex without being embarrassed by it. I think, frankly, what’s immature is the persistent atmosphere of female characters being sexualized by default in bizarrely inappropriate contexts—not games trying to actually deal with legit sexual themes.

With the way Valve's been putting their foot down on explicitly sexual content lately, I wonder if she'll be able to get by. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that a few heads at Valve were fans of Digital/Analogue, but I doubt that'd be enough for them to just give her the OK. She even mentions how just a few years ago, she had one of, if not the only, VNs on Steam at all. And now there's a huge market for it on the service.

If you're one of those people who buys crappy licensed Activision games when they get cheap because you're afraid they'll get delisted and you'll lose your chance to buy a crappy licensed Activision game, Fast & Furious™: Showdown is 75% off ($7.49) in the week longs.

u should just post that stuff here

it's an interesting question you bring up, and it's definitely a bad thing since i don't think it's ever prompted a positive reaction on anyone. it's always like "ugh i fucked up" or reload.

if you care about immersion having the character ask you "ARE YOU SHURE YOU WANNA DO THIS" might be a bit jarring, but i guess that's the most diegetic that you can get

the problem often is that you're not told what you have to do to progress, but there's not a reason for this. like, it could be a srs design decision to have you kind of walking in the dark until you stumble upon the solution, but often you're told to find someone and it's just meant to get you running around a town or whatever, and that stuff could be better done. it could be a multiple step solution that's not triggered automatically, for instance, so it's not like you randomly "interacted" and suddenly you have made progress against your will heh

i think videogames for the most part have gotten around the issues of this problem by slowly removing missables and making missions replayable and such. if you can go back then it doesn't really matter all that much

Just look at those incredibly accurate physics. I mean, that's more or less how I drive to work.

I have played around ~20 hours of Pillars Of Eternity in the past 7 days (and couple of those days I didn't play at all).

It's very addictive. And good. Very good. Excellent.

We chatted a little bit, and he ended up showing up at my PAX booth with a sketch he’d done while watching a panel, of *Mute with a mouthful of jizz. I am not sure he would have been able to get away with this if he wasn’t, frankly, pretty hot—but he was, so it was pretty fucking amazing.

You're talking about a company that thought it'd be a good idea to announce an FF7 re-release at a PS4 event using nothing but the standard FF7 logo. ;)

I guess Deques got banned for that boobs post. Not exactly surprising, but still a shame. RIP in Peace. Hope it wasn't for too long.
