How themist of you guys.
Dark theme really doesn't work for me, strains my eyes more and when switching to most other sites which also use light colors, going from dark to light hurts even more.
To all this add the fact that after 13 years I've grown used to the base color of this board. Switching to some other color just feels wrong to me.

Weird, did Senran Kagura not have any trouble like that?
No, provided the package isn't set up to be purchasable/non-purchasable in select countries. There's no way around that.
The solution is obviously to not visit sites with a light theme.
People are willing to spend 375$ on a dress for a virtual barbie doll...
Just nuke the planet. We don't deserve to live anymore.
Yo guys, so there'll be a PC version of Ni No Kuni II: King's Edition available in Europe, pre-ordered one on Amazon DE, but I just realized it says "Full Game - Digital Download".
So, if I'm in Mexico, I won't be able to redeem it on Steam as it will most likely be region locked... right?!

where is Vindictive Drive a spare from?
You could just open up a bank account in Europe, make a payment through it to the Steam Store, switch your accounts region, then activate it, and then reverse it and hope Valve doesn't get suspicious. Maybe don't do the switching back thing.

Wow, another good soul!!!
Considering there is a cooldown/period of time (after switching) you can't switch to a different region should be fine. Not worth it though....
Better have a friend buy it that you know and VPN activate key (NOT VPN BUY).
That is if its activation restricted only and has no runtime restriction.

I am new to PC gaming, and I have a question. when is the next steam huge sale? BLackfriday? Is steam blackfriday sale usually very good like the ones we see for consoles at bestbuy, walmart, amazon? is usually lightning deals, or lasts several days?
I'm currently unsure if there is a Fall/Black Friday Sale but I'm sure that there will be a Halloween sale. And there will definitly be a Holiday Sale.
But check out Key Seller like Humble Bundle, Gree ManGaming, Bundlestars or cdkeys. They often have low prices and sales for Steam Keys.

Thanks.
Seems like too much trouble lol, so I think I'll just cancel it and get the PS4 version instead... And I'll just grab the Steam version later after selling the PS4 disc haha
Thanks guys!!
Additionally to what has been mentioned isthereanydeal.com shows you if there are currently any deals for any games. Can even link it to your steam account and get mails when something on your wishlist is on sale somewhere.
You should know that 3rd party sites often have better deals than the Steam sales (all the sites on isteranydeal are legit)

Hmm that's crazy. Seeing these prices makes me want to buy PUBG to sell the crates and items. How the crates works in this game?

I guess it would be hard for people new to the genre.
When compared to other similar games, I'd say it's average.
Both BG games are definitively harder.

I only made it ten hours into the first Baldur's Gate before I got distracted by something else.
Plus, the magic system is confusing to me as someone who's only done a little magic in actual D&D, and only in 5e.

Pfft, I gave up ages ago. Got about 10k coins and haven't gotten any games

its like csgo, but easier . Instead of playing the game waiting for lady luck to smile at you, dropping you the latest crates and leaving you to buy the keys which costs 2-3$, in PUBG you could play for a bit and directly buy the gamescom crate with ingame currency and just buy the keys for 2-3$. I spent none since the gamescom crates update and profited 80$.

I don't like dark theme. When you switch to something else you still see the text outlines.
Lain ignored me,
Ahaha, I just looked at the PMs... you gotta PM modbot not me XD
I think it's definitely the easiest of these style games to get into just because of the UI improvements over something like Baldurs Gate or Icewind Dale. I also think the combat systems are more understandable than most of the D&D systems those were based off of.
That said it's still a pretty dense and complex game in a lot of ways. Certainly don't be afraid to ask questions if you don't understand something or are just getting wrecked. The current OT isn't too active but if you post something there you'll get a response pretty quickly I think.
I have a reminder set on my phone to do it every day. Probably isn't worth it in the end...but I can't stop? Hoping they throw something awesome out there one Thursday.

I am enjoying Path of Exile so I was like I will get something from the store. Then I looked at the prices and now I am like no thanks I am good staying a leech.

Got over 18k coins on my account. Previously I also had an alt account which I don't bother to use anymore since there's rarely any games worth redeeming.

The drops are color coded by rarity and the drop rate on the higher end is really low explaining the absurd prices on the rare items, so you may luck out and get a sweet miniskirt or something but you'll more likely end up with a pair of $.10 shoes, I wouldn't feel bad about selling the boxes.
