God Eater 2 + God Eater Resurrection is $14.99 over at Humble Store. $13.49 if you are a Monthly subscriber.

Humble Monthly title confirmed!?

are those games good? maybe i'll get it since it's 2 games

I'd say skip playing the first one and go straight to 2 since it's a much more improved game. Not to mention they reuse areas and enemies from God Eater 1. Not calling the first one bad but I played so much I was burned out and never got to finishing 2.

Can someone tell me how to get to ending Y in nier? I heard its missable or something.

i'm only on route B right now so dont try to spoil too much pls

 

[Ladekabel]

Without knowing anything about Dirt Ralley and the rest of the series I launched it because I thought it would be an arcade racer that I could enjoy while laying back. It isn't and I should check out the store page before I start a game.

Is there a mellow arcade racer on Steam? Not looking for a futuristic one or Burnout Paradise.

 

[DunderHassan]

Anyone wanna play something?
Speedrunners? Rocket League?
Or maybe Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed if we can get together enough people?

Might even chip in a game to the winner, so you fake gamers stop collecting games on Steam and start to actually play them.

Something that I've not beaten before.

what about ridge racer

I think it's the one you where have to find and upgrade all weapons, so.....yeah.

as far as I know I think the missable part is that you have to

Spoiler

let the secret boss do its special move and explode, it leads to a joke "Y" ending, if you do it properly without letting it explode you beat the quest and you can't get that ending, I could be wrong though

activating the quest isn't missable unless you go and erase your save, but basically you do the emil quest, find his house, take some item, beat a boss, upgrade all your weapons, and fight another boss and let the boss explode, just look it up after you're done scenario C or/and D lol

I never got very far either, just too stressful lol. I hate being chased.

I had to look up how to get the Google search and I can safely say I never would have gotten it otherwise. Chain doesn't work but the plank does? Ugh

To make sure you get there ending since it's missable

Spoiler

when you fight Emil in the desert either use A2 or turn your companion's fighting style to passive before the fight. If you end up killing Emil before you let him self destruct then when the game asks you to save don't do it and reload your save from before the fight. If you choose to save it will complete the quest which cannot be repeated in the same playthrough.

ahh okay thanx

damn, finding all weapons is one thing but upgrading them all? dang it lol

It wasn't as hard as I was expecting it to be, there's a couple items you'll likely be short on short on after a normal playthrough. You can also buy some items from

Spoiler

Emil's shop after defeating him outside his house. If you load a game from the chapter select the state of entering Emil's home will reset and you'll have to talk to him in the field and then go steal his mask again.

It's probably the closest you'll get to Monster Hunter on PC, if you enioy that franchise. Plus it's a good port due to QLOC working on it.

I was so tempted until i read about skipping the first one lol, that'd be 1 game for 15bucks! but if they're good ports.....

i am down for Rocket League, Speedrunners, or Sonic Racing

but i need an hour. gotta do stuff

bayonetta (for the gameplay)

i think the story is pretty fun too actually, its the good kind of dumb.

 

[catabarez]

Anyone down to play some Sonic Racing Transformed?

 

[Anteater]

honestly i still have no idea what the story was about lmao, dmc was simpler but I was still lost, but the cutscenes were shorter and more entertaining

I'm stuck on this freeway in Full Throttle in a loop of terrible fights and it's so awful ;-;

Very easy part, you can beat it in 10 minutes when you know what to do.

Spoiler

Smack someone's face until you get a weapon, your goal is to get a chain so you can grab the engine from the duede. You can also collect other weapons, to get the chainsaw you need the fertilizer, to get the wooden plank you can use the chainsaw or another weapon if you are fast enough, to get the goggles you need the wooden plank,
use it when the dude raises his head AND when you are on that ruined part of the road.
If you fail, just use left shift+V to skip the fights, lol.

 

[Chance Hale]

Full Throttle forcing you to go back and forth between the stadium and minefield at least 3 times......what a game.
Editne pixel off so now I have to go get two more sets of bunnies and pick up six of them individually. Another terrible LucasArts game.

 

[cyba89]

It's kinda fun but I think the game spends way too much time on telling a story that is mostly nonsense.

 

[pantsattack]

I was just reading an official Outlast comic from the developers website (it's free to read), and in Issue 3 I think they made a jab at GAF.

Look at the blurry page on the screen, am I crazy?

Is not Dark so of course not.
Funny though.

? I beat that section rather quickly-
Use the first bunny to get the battery.
Go back and get rid of the salesman to get the box

Go back to Minefield and place the box on the ground, but pick up all the bunnies before they move out.
Use each bunny to make a path through the minefield.
I didn't need to go back to the shop to get more Bunnies.

Also for the Secret door; I found it on my 2nd try. In the remastered visuals there should be a protruding rock that if you kick it at the right moment, the path opens up.

 

[GoldandBlue]

Well honestly 15 bucks is a steal for the game, I put a lot of time into just one.

I had to get a second box both times as 6 wasn't enough, fucked up the first time tho by letting some of the bunnies out on the right side whereas the box bunnies go straight up.

Was just annoyed that I had to go back to the stand 5 times before I got it lol. The name calling in the next scene was great tho.

That section is very easy, you usually end on having 1-2 spare bunnies. First you need to use the box on the minefield, after that grab quickly all bunnies except one, see where he dies, go here, use another banny, repeat. The game never forces you to backtrack three times, you need to backtrack just once, after you get the battery.

The time where I tried using just the picked up bunnies I was no where close. Oh well tho, more the annoyance of having to go back and forth while trying to figure out the solution. Controls on the derby too, woof.

If we can appreciate Planescape Torment for its writing, the same goes for Trails in the Sky.

The writing is good, easily some of the best in any JRPG, but it's not PS:T good (nothing is).
Luckily, the battle system is pretty good too.

What would make TitS:SC (and FC for that matter) significantly more enjoyable to me would be a way to speed up or skip battle animations (like spells etc.).

 

[Dinjoralo]

Note that this "Closest thing to Monster Hunter on PC" is actually so far removed from MonHun that they might as well not be compared. It's more like Devil May Cry, but janky and crap. If you want MonHun, I'd recommend waiting for Dauntless, that looks far better so far.

I have a sudden, inexplicable urge to play Forza. Was Horizon 3 ever fixed to not stutter so bad?

CheatEngine is your friend.
Just set up a speedhack hotkey with your desired speed modifier, and voilà.

Fata Morgana must not be forgotten

 

[Chance Hale]

Full Throttle's ending was bittersweet, but a nice way to go about it. Definetly enjoyed the tone and characters but God if the action elements aren't absolutely abysmal. The controls for the demolition derby were shocking.

 

[Tonton]

Looks like XSEED put out the patches for FC and SC doing the Zane -> Zin change and some other suff
Blog detailing this and other changes

Fata Morgana must not be forgotten

People would need to know it exists to forget it

 

[Corpekata]

Trails FC doesn't hook you nearly as well as something like Planescape does, and even then the actual quality of writing is not anywhere near Planescape. It's kind of a bizarre comparison

Trails' writing is both HEAVILY steeped in cliches (granted, it's well done cliches) and extremely back end heavy when it comes to actual interesting developments. Torment drops you into a weird ass world with interesting mysteries from the start.

The default desktop config for DS4's should be the one where you can control your mouse cursor and stuff, so yes.
