Ugh. Stearncornmunity scammer keeps adding me from different accounts with maybe a week's interval. Pretty damn obvious but still kinda annoying. I goatse'd the last one but it's obviously a bot so they probably don't read any chat messages they get.

Hmmm, can't decide if I want to pull the trigger on Dishonored GOTY or not. I've already played it numerous times on console, but after the disappointment of Thief I'd really like to play it again with all the DLC. Do you guys think $10 is a good price, or should I wait for better?

Yeah, today I got 2 random friend invites from people with 0 common friends. I just instablocked them. It's weird because I don't have any expensive items in my inventory. Seems they just go for everyone these days.

I personally enjoyed the DLC more than the base game, so I'd say it's worth it

We must get this to the top.

hey guys ... I'll be streaming some Shadowgate shortly ... if anyone's interested - feel free to drop by

Shame I'm going out again or I would watch. Last one I saw was KiD for awhile, but had to go to. I'll just check the archive though.

@Gianni Merryman - Don't want to look like X05 with all them quotes, but I'll try not to miss the dailes for LYNE. Its really been a long time since I've enjoyed a puzzle game. It's just so good! Having a lot of fun playing it, and it really is relaxing. Puzzles don't leave me reaching for a bottle out of frustration. Not to say that they don't require any thinking though.

Anybody playing invisible inc? It looks really cool. It's kind of tempting me...

Yeah, it's real good. Pretty hard to get started with though, as the difficulty is very unforgiving. I've not managed to survive my first day yet.

I used to have a text file somewhere with an ASCII art goatse, I wonder what happened to that.

OH god why would you save that!?!? I remember an old forum I used to visit, enter topic, get ASCII Goatse. Please... don't find it.

In other words, I'm about to start the Dark Souls DLC. Am I about to die horribly? I just heard a boss has lightning resistance, and I have an Lightning Uchi+5, so I'm probably gonna have to replace that before I go in >_>

Best news of the week.

Dota 2 got an update today with support for all the new currencies coming to Steam. Here's a list and conversion rates for $10.

Their implementation on the main Steam store should be coming very soon.

I already could buy in euros. So what changed?


Up for preorder.

Beautiful!

Edit: Apparently, worth 6 keys and 2 ref from Russian sellers.

you can buy Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition for $5.1 if you own gold edition
but it wont last for ever, this promotion only for 28 August

How have you built your character? Lightning weapons are generally only good if you have no points in physical stats, because they get 0 stat scaling, while Katanas normally get some of the better stat scaling in the game. Depending on your build it might make sense to rethink your weapon choice, regardless of the DLC.

I personally used an Enchanted Uchigatana on my Mage build though, and while the bosses in the DLC all resist Magic I think, I still seemed to manage fine. You can probably keep going with your Lightning weapon if it's worked for you so far, but it might take longer to kill some of the bosses, leaving you more chances to make mistakes and get killed.
 
Oh congratulations MMBosstones86 for being my 100th Steam friend. You would be 101 but for the unpleasantness with MRORANGE.

OH god why would you save that!?!? I remember an old forum I used to visit, enter topic, get ASCII Goatse. Please... don't find it.

I have no idea why I kept it, it might be because I have the sense of humour of a 12 year old.

Finally managed to lay my hands on the last card for the Black Ops 2 set... I'm unsure, do I craft the badge? Sell the cards? Sell the cards for foil cards of the same set?
After 770+ hours, the latter is tempting...

Ziggurat is legit... so legit.

The game's been out a week in early access and already has had 3 updates and the dev posts a progress report every other day on the forums... Why can't all EA devs be like this?

the circle strafing is real

will have more detailed impression after I play it more this weekend.
 
Castle of Illusion is good in the sidescrolly bits, but anything with 3D depth is super tedious. A lot of the times, I would jump and have no idea where I would land.

Probably worth checking out if you're interested, but those problems stick with me more than the rest of the game. It brought down an otherwise fun experience.

Also hey SteamGAF. I've been away making my movie thing for the majority of the summer, but now I'm back to talk mess about licensed sidescrollers. Hope all is well.

I picked up Rock of Ages last night. For $2 that game is a huge deal. I'm not big on tower defence games but I am big on Monkey Ball, and how can you not like a game where you have to shoot Michelangelo's David in the dick with a giant rock?

The extra credit bundle is so get

Another awesome thing about Italy: bars in small towns still has arcade machines running. Today, I played Street Fighter II Turbo on a machine in Trevignano - I suspect it was a bootleg, it had like 50 classics installed. :)
 
Lol, I am currently watching your archive stream of this..

Man, Hitbox has sublime video quality. Amazing actually!

I am gonna get on your Shadowgate stream now though. Your streams are pretty good quality I have to say, please continue doing them, yo ;)

Someone has to pick up my slack, right?

--

I could swear I had a conversation recently with a SteamGAFer about wanting to play Stick It to the Man... if you are that SteamGAFer (sorry, my senility is acting up today) and you never acquired Stick it to the Man, please IM me via Steam chat.

I'm a Dex/Vit/End build. Got Str 14 and Dex 37 at this point. Had some people give me tips to revert the Uchi back and get it up to Uchi +15, and some tips to probably go for the Great Scythe from the Catacombs, which I don't think I picked up yet.
 
Oh god Guacamelee super championship edition has a separate card set...

those look so much better than vanilla. It's like they tried this time.

I loved guacamelee and finished it before the redux was announced. It was really, really fun but i'm done with it. I don't have the time to replay a metroidvania, even if it is a gem of a game. If it's your first time, though, then what a treat for you folks!
