Support NeoGAF

[StrangeTaco]

So, I recently built my own pc and I have 2 questions:

Is it possible to move steam games from my SSD to another internal drive? I only have 250 GB SSD and its size is shrinking as we speak.

And what are some must have games for me to play? I like RPGs like skyrim, RTS like total war and the walking dead (I own the above games).

Divnity: Original Sin I would take a look at, fun RPG.

The Witcher and Witcher 2 are solid and might want to take a look at those as well.

I'd also keep an eye on Wasteland 2 which is launching soon.

I keep forgetting things, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic is awesome as well.

 

[Consequence]

Whoa, lovely planet sure looks....lovely. Why can't more Japanese developers make FPS?

It does look awesome. I would kill for a level editor in it.

 

[Shadownet]

That's pretty nice of you. And luckily for a few people, Shadownet's big giveaway was less than a week ago.

But sadly Transistor wasn't part of my giveaway. I wish it was now that I think about it.

I'm quite happy a good mix of both old and new members won something though

 

[Genki]

On SF4U does anyone else use Juri?
For her being so high on the popularity poll I rarely see her online.

I'd like to, but she seems kind of hard to use with the whole holding projectile charges, especially on a pad.

It's not Japanese developed, is it?

Every thread? I thought it only counted the current and previous thread.

Also, I noticed a few pages back that Might and Magic X - Legacy is on sale on Macgamestore, and includes a Steam key. Does this include the windows version? And is Uplay that much of a hassle to play this game?

It's a steamplay game, so it includes both versions

I got that SpeedRunners itch. Anyone up for a few rounds?

Would love to join, but I'm not home now

Yes, it includes the Windows version. Every MAC game on Steam gives you the Windows version too, except for Black Ops.

I never know who half these characters are that you peeps mention in Street Fighter as for the past 22 years I've been pretty much press start, enter character select, cursor is already on Ryu, press select, fight! Works for me (well most of the time).

I have a weird issue with Street Fighter games recently. I really liked the old SF2 and it's characters because they all felt interesting and unique somehow. Now I find all these new characters just fly right past me. They don't seem inspired or leave a lasting impression or depict an interesting personality.

Oddly Mortal Kombat characters (with the exception of past MK4 to MK8) seem immune to this despite some of the characters just being the same but a different colour. I at least seem to separate them out based on moves that match them and their personalities that are portrayed even from the ridiculously small opportunities in which they are able to do that. Maybe it's because their move sets are often related to a theme, where as some of the new street fighter characters are just all over the place?

Have you played Transistor? You should go play Transistor! Finished off two more of my CS:GO missions this morning, got crap skins on both lol. Had to play the crazy Arms Race mode, was actually fun for a little bit for what it is, but only 3 maps in the rotation kinda sucks

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Speedlunky? That doesn't sound healthy. Don't make me do that.

You gotta get those achievements...

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'd like to, but she seems kind of hard to use with the whole holding projectile charges, especially on a pad.

I play her with a pad and haven't had too much trouble. Though I'm not a high level player either though.

 

[Genki]

Wait, it's not? I blame the Katamari-like visual and the header image:

Took a bit of digging, but it seems not.

The hook: Lovely Planet is a first person shooter game of jumping and shooting set in a cutesy abstract world with its gameplay and setting heavily inspired by everything from Contra to my recent obsession with Japanese pop music videos.

I play her with a pad and haven't had too much trouble. Though I'm not a high level player either though.

I'll definitely give her a shot.

And sites are reporting that it's a Japanese game. Ick.

No sadly I haven't play Transistor yet. Its on my must play wishlist though we need to do more CSGO today.

OT

I feel like I can't even count on my best friend anymore. The amusement park trip that I've been looking forward to for pretty much the entire year has been cancelled because he "can't go". It was the only thing I wanted on my birthday.

 

[MRORANGE]

Well that's interesting.

Game looks really great, I would have picked it up if I didn't buy all those PS3 games.

Edit: it also has a OT

 

[Link Man]

Ah okay it might just be the previous one and the current thread. I forget sometimes myself . Still it's only 5 posts so I don't think it's all to much when the thread goes for 20k posts.

Also I've had trouble with Uplay in the past back when like Blood Dragon came out, but it's not all that bad now, just another program running that you have to launch the game through. Don't know how Might and Magic works with it though.

It's a steamplay game, so it includes both versions

Thanks, might have to jump in at that price then.

Yeah when I saw the game for the first time I loved it, the art, the music and movement all looks so good.

That OT sucks to hear, Shadow, sorry : (
He either has a good reason or won't be your "best" friend anymore if he's actually just flaky, because you'd find better ones.

I pretty much always expect it to be a coupon now

With most games you can choose where to install them.

It's a go for go.

That also reminds me that I need to call my best friend from high school. It's been a while since we've hung out.

Yeah but for some reason steam wont let me. Keeps saying something along the lines of: cant create a steam folder (or something)

His reason was 1) because his girlfriend couldn't go. (Honestly she wasn't even part of the plan originally. It was just us two. 2) he said he's training for a new job this week. A job that I did not even hear about until 3 days ago. Which make me suspicious if it is even real.

Honestly it sounds like a bunch of BS, because I've been friend with him for so long. I know how whipped he is when he has a girlfriend. If she can't come, his interest take a nose dive because he rather be spending time with her. Example: his last girlfriend got him so whipped. Whenever it was guys night. He ALWAYS has to go home early because she needed to talk. One time we just got to the bowling alley. He picked up the phone and said "I have to go home... Cause my girlfriend is having cramps." She lives 2 hours away. Even if he was home, there was nothing he can do. Goddamn whipped I tell you.

Ha. Classic. Gets me falsely excited everytime!

 

[Tellaerin]

Oh, no.
Do yourself a favour and replay the PC version with a fresh renderer.

Deus Ex 1 on the PS2 was not a bad experience at all, despite purists slagging it off. Personally, I ended up enjoying it more on the PS2 than I did on the PC.

Woo, happy august!

It wasn't *bad*, but it wasn't as good as the PC version

I'm spending my Friday night arguing with Sonic fans rather than playing more Shovel Knight.

Why?

 

[Dr Dogg]

My Steam profile is proudly saying I've played quite a lot of hours in the past 2 weeks. Hahaha yeah, no that's not really the case. To be fair at this rate of my drops I probably will have the maximum 336 hours until I got everything.

I have a friend who's the same. Ryu,ken, and Akuma only. I try to stick with shotos as well since I'm horrible at charge characters. Though Q in SF3 made me learn at least somewhat.

I have a weird issue with Street Fighter games recently. I really liked the old SF2 and it's characters because they all felt interesting and unique somehow. Now I find all these new characters just fly right past me. They don't seem inspired or leave a lasting impression or depict an interesting personality.

Maybe it's because their move sets are often related to a theme, where as some of the new street fighter characters are just all over the place?

I have no idea why I do it with SF as other games I'm happy to try mixing it up. Tekken for instance I would either go for Paul or Law or for really special occasion when I could remember how to chain 10 throws together I'd play as King. But come Tekken 2 Lei was my go to character and I started to put some work with Jin as well. By the Time 3 came out Hwoarang would be my clutch character if things we're going well with a mixture of Bryan and Eddy if I was feeling particularly cheesy.

Marvel is a whole different kettle of fish as I'd pick some random combinations just for giggles.

Mortal Kombat has always felt to me like something worth exploring each character because the amount of specials and finishers unique to each was worth seeing first hand (though Liu Kang or Baraka are two I know the movesets off the top of my head).

Ah well seeing as Ultra is out in a week are we doing anything SteamGAFfy to celebrate? Latency and time related issues aside. Thread wide question so free feel to chip in anyone.

I hope so. Perhaps a night of Super to send the old game out, then a night of Ultra.

I plan on putting up a lobby (with direct link), along with a stream for others to laugh at. It should be fun.

I hope so. Perhaps a night of Super to send the old game out, then a night of Ultra.

Not a bad idea.

Yes but there have actually been recent Mega Man games that weren't burning garbage.

 

[jshackles]

For some reason, Google hasn't published the new version I released last night yet. This is the longest it's ever taken for them, so I'm not sure what the issue is on their side.

Hopefully it'll get pushed through soon.

As far as Megaman goes, trust me, you think you do, but really... you don't want a resurrection to come. Ever. Take solace in the fact that his creator is now making a spiritual successor in Mighty No. 9. I awaited Strider Hiryu's resurrection for over 20 years (since I missed Strider 2 on PSX) and I now I wish he'd just stayed dead outside of random cameo appearances in the MvC series.

Sonic is a different story though. I don't even feel like starting that debate up though.
