Not sure what's worse, people with free early copies already selling DS3 cards for like 1,50€ or people actually buying them at that price point heh

Cards? Is that a first for a Souls game? These better be some quality emoticons

 

[cyba89]

Let's see if DS3 can beat XCOM 2 peak of 130k.

 

[Kurt Russell]

no one should buy WOTS 3 or 4

no one should buy anything until the summer sale, unless it is a new release you've been anticipating.

Ozium, why are you doing this

I bought Contradiction when it wasn't on sale!

Not sure but you might be right. Unless SOTFS had cards, I can't recall I have gotten any.

Seems fake to me? The store page doesn't mention it having cards at all.

 

[Messiah]

Probably put as much effort into the emotes as they put into the shirts.

not fake

just search the Market for Dark Souls III

Six card drops. Six letters in "Git Gud". They could've done something special.

Wow, it's true. Never expected them for a Souls game.

What are the odds DS1 and 2 retroactively get cards as well?

 

[MUnited83]

No way DS3 hits 200k. That is like Bethesda territory.

DS2 peak was 79k. As long as it does higher than that it will be good news.

Probably have to wait until the weekend to see the peak anyways. That is how it was with The Division which got 113k.

DS2 was released one month after consoles. As well as the downgrade talk, AMD after one motnh people were already saying how it wasn't as good as 1.
DS3 has huge potential. At the very least it will do double of what DS2 did.

 

[chronomac]

There's a new demo for Return of the Obra Dinn.

 

[MUnited83]

They better have a Solaire emoticon.

 

[Teggy]

OK, Steamworld it is. I think I'll play it on Vita for the trophies/relaxation factor.

 

[Ucchedavāda]

Talking about short games, I'm too tired today to play anything, anybody knows any relaxing game that is not bad and I haven't played it yet?

Since I just finished it, I'm going to recommend Papo & Yo, which is a rather unusual (very light) puzzle platformer, that takes about 3½ hours to beat. It is unusual both in terms of the underlying theme, and that aesthetics are African in nature, which makes for a visually very distinct and very pleasing experience (IMO). Notably, you manipulate the environment using calk lines, which transform the fantastical shanty-town around you in many strange ways, such as making parts of the ground peel away, or make houses sprout limbs and move on their own accord:

oh i know a short game

squarecells!

I got that, at your recommendation I think, and I ended up putting 40+ hours into the trilogy .. I suppose if it'll fit the bill if you only get the first one.
EDIT: Misread as "Hexcells" .. derp.

 

[bbd23]

Oh shit cards for dark souls 3?

nice

Fantastic game and a pretty stunning visual experience too!

 

[iosefe]

i guess it is finally time to buy Squarecells

 

[Amzin]

Ah, that's another one I half finished. I have been wanting someone to come up with a cross-reference between your library and howlongtobeat - that would be so good. I mean, the work must basically be done because there are those sites that will tell you how long it will take to finish your library.

You can import your library into howlongtobeat actually, if you make an account. I found it a pain in the ass to manage which game I'd beaten but you can do it, anyway.

to be fair i wasn't sure how many hours each lasted and i was thinking around 8ish but i just checked and im at like 10-20 each lol

except hexcells 1 that's a solid 5 hours, so i guess that one fit

Whenever I hear the word despair I just assume it's dragongrandpa related at this point.

Yeah, but it's been a while since Xseed mentioned something about it, I think. Just hope that it hasn't been cancelled in favor of the 3DS version or something.

 

[freshVeggie]

Never did a pre-load before, so I don't know how long it will take. Hope not too long.

There's a new demo for Return of the Obra Dinn.

Wow, this looks nice. Very atmospheric! Will try out some time.

 

[Nyteshade517]

Dark Souls III is unpacking now

 

[e90Mark]

Dark Souls III is unpacking now

Same here. So excite.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Took about a minute to get 1% unpacked.

The real Dark Souls starts here.

 

[Vazra]

The House in Fata Morgana Demo It's quite beefy for a demo

 

[Parsnip]

Unpacking...

 

[e90Mark]

Took about a minute to get 1% unpacked.

The real Dark Souls starts here.

On an SSD? Moving pretty fast for me here.

 

[impact]

Dark Souls 4 preorder bonus: pre-unpack plz

 

[Nyteshade517]

we're all fighting the Unpacking Demon

 

[LurkerPrime]

Regular HD with an SSD cache thingie.

It's moving a lot faster now, but it'll still be a good ten minutes at this pace.

 

[mp1990]

Are the Endless games from 4X worth grabbing, considering they're on sale? Endless Legend looks pretty cool so I'm tempted to at least buy that one.

EDIT: guess it wasn't a smart choice to question this right now, considering everyone's on the souls fever and this will probably be overlooked lol :|

 

[zkylon]

yea i should buy a ssd

idk if redownloading it would be faster lol

 

[Parsnip]

And it's done, woo.
See you suckers in a week.

 

[bbd23]

took 8 minutes to unpack

WE IN!

 

[zkylon]

wait what is going on lol

 

[Uzzy]

Yup. Endless Legend especially, it's a fantastic 4X, probably the best in recent years. I love the setting for it, really strong flavor and aesthetics.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Got the steam controller as a birthday gift from a friend. What is a good first game to try it?

 

[cyba89]

Still 10 minutes of unpacking.

steam pls.

 

[LurkerPrime]

wait what is going on lol

There's a few people in the DS3|OT| that have a reported 1 year+ wait, so consider yourself lucky.

 

[morningbus]

Imma need to see them Steam Controller DS3 official configs.

Drop 'em out.
