tales of the boredlands is pretty entertaining so far

i really like the setup and characters and story has been a blast so far

actual playing of the game tho, ehh, leaves a bunch to be desired

qtes are like, pls no, and my dumb brain can't read as fast as the timer wants me to

wish there was an option to slow that down

In Mushihimesama, is unlocking achievements bugged? Because beating the bosses achievements seems not to unlock for me
 
The last two NVidia updates (AC Syndicate one and now Just Cause 3) all crash especially for laptops. Dunno why NVidia is not resolving it.

I hate this shit so much. Just give me the option to use 360 prompts, please. Pretty please.


Don't think I forgot about Option and Share. This generation sucks. All hail the Steam Controller.

Speaking of which, it's the best controller available right now. Don't listen to IGN and other garbage sites. I'm just about done with Return to Castle Wolfenstein, about to get started on the second mission of Hitman 2, and the F.E.A.R is all set up and ready to go. This controller is so legit.

Truly your generosity is boundless >_>

How's the "D-pad"?
Tried any 2D games?

Check this year's OP's perhaps? That should give you some ideas.

Anyone pick up Technobabylon during the sale? I'd read some mixed reviews, but I'm actually really enjoying it. Setting is neat, story is good enough, and the puzzles are decent.

Also grabbed The Fall, Dungeons of the Endless, some CK2 DLC and Elite.

It's one of games I probably will pick during winter sales if price any good, another would be Subject 13. Both seems like something I'd enjoy.

there is a good Daedalic bundle on sale on steam, not sure was it on sale during Autumn sale, I just noticed

It's among my GotY contenders though I can't say if it'll make it to my steam or overall GAF goty list :3
 
You know that there's something wrong with the game when the number of posts & views in the OT are just barely above the one in PC performance thread.

I bought that game on Summer seal because of you and haven't played it yet, in fact I forgot about it.

That's not a game you start and play until finished, I know Knurek did it this way, but that's kinda waste of what it is. You play it when you wanna relax or chill, are stressed or tired and can't sleep, inbetween the other games, that kind of thing.
As I said before, strictly speaking it's not a puzzle game, it's a zen game, it only becomes puzzle game near the very end on last few levels that are complex and require much more thinking and planning ahead. Also try daily levels too, when you'll get around to playing it finally.

Actually before or together with Danganronpa would be nice to get 999, as it has iOS version, no problem with porting also.

Let's not talk about the abomination that is the iOS version of 999.
What sense is there a room escape puzzle game without room escape puzzles?!

Rainbow Six Siege is reviewing well on Steam. And there are nice impressions in OT. Same goes for AC Syndicate. I guess Ubisoft did something right :D

ERMYGERD!
I'm looking to repurpose an old HTPC as a game-streaming unit (streaming games from my desktop Gaming-PC to my HTPC), the obvious choice was to install SteamOS, but now I see it requires 250GB of diskspace? Can someone eloborate as to why it needs so much? From what I remember from Linux-distros, OSs were quite small. As I only have 120GB available in this unit, and not interested in upgrading any parts, just to achieve streaming, I'm considering to install Windows and make it start to Steam Big Picture mode through a registry key.

It's like your usual car insurance, basically it covers your ship in case it gets damaged or destroyed. It will cost in-game currency, but there's no need to worry about it, won't be expensive at all.

EDIT

Like in real-life insurance should be a relatively small part of your regular in game expenses which will also include paying landing fees, trade tariffs (if in a system with lots of infrastructure and law and order), fuel (if you don’t collect it yourself from a gas giant), buying cargo to trade, hiring help, making upgrades to your ship or even buying a whole new ship.

Woah, Foxtales is a very crappy DLC for 4€, a crappy DLC even for 1 or 2 € actually.
AI is even worse than Never Alone, controls are clunky as usual and the boat control sucks too (why you can't just push B+ left or right to control the boeat?), plus is like 20 minutes long in which, guess what, it also delivers a repetive gameplay (two levels are basically the same, solving simple puzzles while controlling your boat, last level is a "boss fight" you can solve in two minutes). Actually I don't know if the lenght is a plus or a minus, for sure I wouldn't complete two hours of this stuff, but for the price asked, I think 30 additional minutes of gameplay is a pretty poor addition, compared to the fact the full game is 15€ for around 3 hours of gameplay. Eh, if you consider this, the price is in line :S

I still prefer Last Inua over this.
