I'm still cautious but hopeful for NMS. Not buying it until I see some good word of mouth.
there's a lot of good word of mouth, and that was on a month or two old Gold build.
imagine what final release would be? sounds great to me
You can really see the Riddick engine in use for the Darkness 1.

This would be one of my top releases to see on PC.

Same, work is going to blow this week as I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to put in some OT. If reviews and impressions look good I'll pre order it Thursday and rest from a crappy work week with some NMS all weekend

Just finished the normal campaign of Torchlight II. I liked a lot of things better than the first game (the gameplay felt slightly better, the graphics more polished,) but the music was way better in the first game.
Not sure if I'm gonna bother to keep playing it for more achievements. I put 25 hours into it and I'm like 1/10 of the way for some of the achievements. (Fish 1,000 times!) I guess that's for the people who get hooked on multiplayer or something and that's not me.

Shogun II is not Total Waaagh and that upsets me; time to try something else. I suppose it's time to finally start Dead State: Reanimated. For real this time.

I'm looking into VPNs today. Anybody use them? Leave them on all the time?
There are a couple posters here that wouldn't surprise me if they popped up. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

listen to the mad man
I use them, not for Steam stuff--I mean, I leave it running while I use Steam, but I don't use it to buy Steam stuff in other regions. I use PIA (PrivateInternetAccess.com). It is adequate. Speed is good but not great. Price is good. I pay with a pre-paid credit card. There are servers in many countries, which is handy.
I'm curious about this as well, it seems pretty cool but the recent video almost made it look MMO-ish? I don't mind an extra challenge solo so long as it's within reason.
AFAIK you can "solo" but the game is part of the PSO-clone genre, where you want to party-up as you grind. If anything to make the grind a bit less dull. If you're not into PSO-clones, avoid it.
I would also like to know that actually. From what i've gathered, you can go on missions with either AI partners, or with human-controlled ones (up to 4 players) - it doesn't seem to have any kind of co-op campaign or anything of the sort, but it looks like you can do all the game's content in co-op.
People also seem to mostly praise the co-op experience in God Eater Resurrection, which is already out on PS4.
...or Peter Molyneux.
I play new releases blindfolded so as not to spoil myself.
Seeing as it is unreleased, it is technically a spoiler? I dunno.
What I do know is that this won't be Moly-2.0
I can't wait to rename a star system The Molyneux System
There was someone advocating in the "Save games deletion" thread that people that play early should be banned because he didn't like that there were Spoiler Threads on the forum. Just other people discussing spoilers in a separate area is enough to upset some of these folks.

How would I go about installing Steam games on a brand new (external) hard drive?
after it is hooked up and recognized by your computer go to steam and then at the top select steam -> settings -> downloads, top choice is content library folders, click that then add the drive and folder you want for steam content then when you install a game you can select where to install
Servizio
I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
Right click > Backup Game Files...
is probably what you're looking for. Or just select the external drive during a normal install.

I feel stupid for having asked this because as soon as I installed something, something like occured.

Some people were getting mad at e3 leaks being posted on gaf, because those would spoil the e3. I remember one guy even saying he'd like to see the FBI pursuing the leakers and punishing them.
You know, I'm all for spoiler tagging story spoilers and twists and all, but we're really going to far into the videogamers spoilerphobia bubble if we have to start spoiler tagging industry news and real life events.
I started playing it yesterday, so far it has been really interesting. The cop work is kinda fun, but not very deep. 3 hours in I haven't even unlocked all of the mechanics yet mind you.
The game is really charming tho, the way you select and unlock the Soundtrack is really cool and the writing reminds me a bit of max payne with it being such a melodramatic film-noir thingy.
Since I haven't unlocked all mechanics yet in what seems to be a rather long game, I dont feel like I can really give a proper opinion about it, but so far I really liked it!
I've only played a little bit of the PSP one, but from what I remember:
Yes, the other people are either AI controlled or other players. You can choose yourself which NPCs you bring to a mission, and go completely solo as well if you want (I think some mission had fixed partners for story reasons though).
The AI itself was pretty competent already. It's very good at staying alive, giving you support and distracting things, but not good at actually killing things without you doing anything, which I think is perfect. You don't have to waste all the time just keeping them alive and and they also don't just play the game by themself if you only stand around.
But keep in mind that I don't know if this is still true later in the game, as I only really played 2 chapters, I think.

Big space mess --
I don't know how long. I randomly decide to do the lvl 20 stuff. It just asks me on game launch if I wanted to spend gold to buy time.

If you own Kingdom: Classic, you will get Kingdom: New Lands for free tomorrow, and Kingdom: Classic will only be accessible through a duo bundle.
If I am not mistaken, the game was nominated at IGF, and got the seal of approval of Jonathan Blow in a series of tweets.

Yes! And it's ridiculously cheap if you live in North America. Everyone else has to pay at least twice as much per month.
Speaking of WoW, Demon Hunter early access begins this week.
How do you even find it? It was 39K for me. Other places? My battle.net account was started in the states, do I get the benefit? I can't use local currency to buy gametime.

I decided to buy a copy of Dead Rising 2 from Games Planet since I have a feeling it won't exactly have a huge discount after DR1 comes out. Will probably be in the mood for replaying it after beating the first game again.

Is that all you have for doto?
shit well I guess it's hard to criticize the better game
yeah of course you say "prize pools don't matter" since Dota is destroying League lol
FGC, Call of Duty, Hearthstone, Pokémon, World of Tanks prize pools aren't worth discussing
most played game in the world that's been out for 7 years and it's just overtaking Starcraft 2, sad
and riot 'salaries' not being disclosed means there's obviously money that isn't going to the right people
The designs look like generic Korean MMO characters. The women are rail thin with revealing outfits and suffer from same face lol, it's always awkwardly sexualized poses with them. The men look like the same Blade and Soul template but they're given gigantic shoulder pads, overstylized armor plates, robes everywhere. Riot just took Dota's designs and made them too anime.
And those in-game models? Jesus christ, everyone looks and animates like Warcraft 3 characters. Can they at least sharpen the resolution of the models or something so they don't look like a blurry mess.
League received several graphical overhauls over the years and it still looks like that? And good god all the information everywhere, Dota is a more complicated game but even that has an easy to follow HUD and alerts. This is just an ugly game
Valve adds in new shit all the time, and it doesn't even slow the game down. League always takes forever to load the map, and it's so needy that it freezes my pc lol. What a joke.
Those other maps don't get as much rotation as HOTS does
You better leave my GotG alone, Rocket will blow anyone in League to smithereens.
If you can say League is the best game then I can say it's garbo, which it is.
And Riot programmers are terrible; the client won't let me change the settings for when I'm actually in the fucking game, the map takes ten years to load and G-Sync doesn't even work right lol. What a shame.

Powers supplies are weird. Mine has blown twice in the last couple of years and a couple of hours later it's working fine again. I'm not questioning it.
