So here I am doing windows update for the first time in almost 2 years. It's failed to install and is now reverting the changes

What do?

it's too late

you're already hacked

So here I am doing windows update for the first time in almost 2 years. It's failed to install and is now reverting the changes

What do?

Somehow find out which update is causing the problem, there should be an error message after the rollback. What OS are we talking about? And why didn't you activate automatic updates? Not installing them for that long isn't a very good idea in general.

 

[iosefe]

Do it in sections.

Didn't think of that

I just realized today that it was off

[Supaidaman]

P4 doesn't have Junpei Stupei tho

True that but it has worst girl Fuuka =p

 

[corrosivefrost]

I need this game.
It's looking great to me and reminding me a bit of Splatterhouse Reboot which was all kinds of bloody fun.



I forgot all about this. Thanks for putting it back on my radar.

Sorry I keep dying... those one hit deaths are punishing.

Oh he's streaming DOTA 2? I thought he was gonna play Yaiba

I need 1 more for CSGO. COMP. anyone interested?

You know, as much as I like playing Dota 2 I can't stand watching it even at a professional level. I'm not sure what is is about it.

I would love it if Persona games came to Steam. I don't think it's ever going to happen, but it would be lovely.
Though who knows, because Sega is kind of a wildcard I think. Suddenly doing some work on the Dreamcast collection? Who saw that coming. Maybe they'll farm ports of Persona games to some western porthouse that specializes on PC, like Nixxes or Qloc, to pave the road for Persona 5 on PC.

Right!? Guys?!

P4 doesn't have Junpei Stupei tho

 

[gabbo]

So The Long Dark is coming to steam!

I thought this had already dropped, so thank you for correcting me. Will keep an eye out for.

I always have automatic update off, but I make sure to update periodically.

Anyone enjoying firefall around here?

I am looking for friends!

Name is ichigo in game

edit:
Just a bit about my history with the game:

I started playing the game in closed beta very soon after it started. So like 2+ years ago. I have every frame except bastion unlocked but only 1 to max level which is 40. Most of my frames are 10 and below and I'll play whatever.

I was in interested in the game, but some people have reported load issues, so I'm waiting to see if that clears up soon.

Yeah I can't watch moba at all. Really only character action games, fighting games, and the like I can actually watch.

I enjoy watching professional dota, but even then usually the first 10 minutes is fairly boring

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

999's Junpei is the best Junpei for sure.

But that's Jumpy, not Stupei. Both are awesome though.

 

[MrTeachwell]

I don't have a wife. Must be why I seem to co-exist with uPlay most of the time.



How often should I be adding notes to my request asking for a response?

I waited about 4/5 days before getting a response. If you didn't initially provide the transaction id I'd add that otherwise wait a couple days. Once you get a response though respond as often as you like since at that point you have someone's ear and they should be able to respond in almost real time

uPlay-chan is talking to me again and letting me access my account again.
Of course, now my account is 'empty'.

i really should play p4 someday

it's kind of a big commitment since those games are so long

i should also read the wiki on that extra content on p3 fes

i never felt like beating that since i really liked how the original ending was a bit left open to interpretation

To be honest, those sort of ambiguous endings are often better left in the dark. When sequels flat out explain them, they're usually disappointing/half-assed, and will at the very least ruin the mystique.

Anyone who's watched Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes knows what I mean.

 

[Skyfireblaze]

Oh dear what am I doing? D: Thanks to IDLEM@STER I should have enough cards to get Trails in the Sky soon, I have a Astebreed OT to finish, exams are this month, I'm still a bit ill, Sword Art Online Vita releases soon, I play Dynasty Warriors 8 every now and then and I just managed to snatch a ArcheAge beta key, is there any Hyperbolic Time Chamber I can download on Steam?

one of the many things about the megaten games i really like is how they leave completely mysterious shit up in the air for you to give meaning to.

i love that in general, i wish more games had more strange stuff shrouded in mystery and left up to your imagination

 

[Turfster]

Did someone list the gamesplanet dailies yet?

• Total War Rome II 67%
• F1 2013 67%
• Super Meat Boy Ultra 77%
• The cave 75%
• Bound By Flame 40%

(and a couple more uPlay deals that would be okay if they were only Steam keys too =p)

Yeah I never really touched the answer either, especially after I heard it was just more of the pre generated dungeon crawling again. Only thing I didn't like about the Persona games were the dungeons, just should made them more like Nocturne or Strange Journeys dungeons

In a lot of cases, I agree with you, but I don't think that's really the case with P3 FES.

I wouldn't say The Answer (the Chapter of FES that is set after the main story) is really about explaining mysteries. It's more about the characters (and the player) coming to terms with the way P3 ended. In that respect, I thought it was quite well handled.

Spoiler

The story justifies why the main character had to sacrifice himself, in a way that is completely consistent with the story of P3, and honestly makes more sense than the way it was presented in vanilla.

On the other hand, the fan-fictiony main plot, and the character assasination of certain characters I could have really done without.

Yeah I can't watch moba at all. Really only character action games, fighting games, and the like I can actually watch.

StarCraft 2 is also very clicky like MOBAs, however the gameplay is much more enjoyable to watch, more tactical varieties and more tense.

P3 FES ( specifically the post-game story where you play as Aegis) explains the ending of P3 IIRC. So warning, if you're perusing the wiki.

EDIT: Delius beat me to it

tbh i think ideal thing would be to do a mix of randomized and dev designed floors. i think having the tower be different every time was a cool thing even if it was always the same in mechanics (like either monster, chest, megachest or return thingies)

but having special developer floors for bosses or unique random encounters would be really cool

EDIT: Delius beat me to it

yeah i mean i don't care which one is the ending the developers chose, i like this ending and this is the one i'm sticking with

i'm interested in knowing what the answer was all about but not interested enough to play through it specially since the little i played was pretty hard

I always forget how depressing Persona 3 is in comparison to 4, wonder what route Persona 5 will take. The teaser images seem to hint a return to a more grim atmosphere at least.

This reminds me that we are due for a new P5 trailer

 

[TheSeks]

It's not that "hard," you just need to grind cards for fusing. It takes a while. For me, I like the exploring the dungeon part/fusion of demons parts more than the S. Links/dating sim elements of Persona so I was fine with doing more dungeon crawling. Double so with Aigis.

But, SMT is "grim" in general. That's kinda the motif they go for. P4 is generally the outlier in both SMT and Persona.

Spoiler

"everything works out perfectly, except you have to move back home which you knew would from the beginning of the game."

In comparison to Persona 3's ending, where it was depressing, yes, but it was also very appropriate. It was basically the only way it could have ended (outside of complete destruction of humanity), without feeling like a complete deus ex machina.

 

[rtcn63]

Nevermind, I think I just reiterated the plot for P3.

Yeah, we've just had so many Persona 4 spin-offs and multimedia running for so long now that it's what sticks out in my mind as representing the Persona games. Which is kind of silly because Persona 2 IS came out on the PSP around the same period. Was interesting to see SMT IV having more developed characters compared to Nocturne where people were mostly just ideology voice boxes. Really hope that whenever the next mainline SMT comes around it gets a bigger budget as SMT IV really felt a bit cheap in places. Some towns would be 3D, others 2D navigation. And of course all of the monsters being sprite based instead of 3D models.

You get some artwork with it and can play as alien hominid when you get 30 bandages, used to be XBLA exclusive.

Edit: Ozium also pointed out you get the soundtrack with it as well.

Hrrrmmmm...

(1) Alien Hominid should be brought to steam. C'mon Behemoth, your other two games are here now.
(2) That's awesome.
(3) I wonder if the upgrade is cheap -- I'll have to look next time SMB is ridiculously discounted on Steam. Love the soundtrack and Alien Hominid sounds like a huge plus.

As I recall from playing the Xbox version, Alien Hominid wasn't a very useful character.

Bound by Flame is the sleeper hit of 2014, fabulous game.
