Where's the spoiler tag? I was hoping to unlock this in a game menu by collecting 30 Playboy issues.

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
I can't play these during lecture.Lol thats funny, but cmon, this is steamgaf, why would anyone play solitaire on their pc when we got the witcher 3 and disgaea in feb?
I know this is going to sound weird, but I'd rather pay STEAM's price and have a guaranteed way of getting my money back due to this being a Koei Tecmo game.

Nah, FO3 was much better to me =/

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
That actually doesn't sound weird at all, and was going to mention that in my post also lol
That's a funny looking 'monster'.
Though seeing an ACE Team game I was kind of expecting a brawler of some sorts.
Turn in your badge and your gun. You're suspended from Steam GAF indefinitely!!!

lol, amazing. Do the DLC decks cost less, about the same or more than an actual deck of cards. Also, how do they justify ads? Because it's free? I'm on Windows 7 still, I don't see much point in upgrading at the moment. I kind of dread building my next tower.

Please, please, please, don't pre-order a PC port where Koei is involved. I want Japanese games on PC too, Dragon Quest in particular, but don't reward a company with such an awful track record with money blindly.
Ha, amazing. A subscription fee to play ad-free solitaire. They create a problem that didn't exist before and charge you for the solution.
Want to play solitaire without ads? That'll be $1.49 a month or $10 a year.
Maybe having Xbox Live Gold in the future will give you premium access for free...

Cheaper in the Norway Steam Store in a fantomena near you
This looks actually fun. The reveal was rough but it looks pretty nice.

I would pay that if they improved their marketplace. Hell I would make that back in a week selling cards faster

you browse neogaf during lectures that way you feel less guilty, afterall, you're talking about games during class not playing them

Not at all. It doesn't feel very much like Fallout 3. With the talking avatar, expanded color pallet, and making VATS useless along with the community building / crafting, it feels like a very different game.
Hmmmm this appeals to me in strange ways

that describes what every ACE team game does to me.

VATS useless? It is more OP then ever. You have a 95% to get a headshot at all times. Combine that with the luck tree and it is non-stop headshots.
Chance Hale

Depends on your stats I suppose, I kept out of the last two trees and I never got good rates for headshots so I just kept to my mouse aim skills. Which was perfectly viable and I think that's a good thing.

Maybe its how I specced my character but shots in real time are insta hit whereas VATS almost always waste more ammo.
Sure can, Norway has always been region free.

maybe that is it, I also have that Macready perk. Oh well I have 3.5 days played I am not complaining.
not really, there's enough to differenciate it, like the new (worse) dialogue system and the new (worse) character system and then the poorly implemented base building and crafting systems
at least the power armor stuff is kinda cool?
but i'd say it's more similar to skyrim than fo3
Bethesda going to dumb down to the point where Fallout 5 plays itself.
The less player input, the higher chance a player will get lost or confused.

So essentially Fallout : A Telltale series with worse writing.
Haven't you heard? WRPGs are confusing.
As a person who played a lot of JRPGs over the years, including Akitoshi Kawazu and tri-Ace games... Fuck that thread.

Based off other Koei games will people be able to work past the 1080P resolution max for Dragon Quest or will it be stuck there for eternity?
Besides Resonance of Fate and Star Ocean 5 port begging. I also beg for Exist Archive - The Other Side of the Sky
More Valkyrie Profile like games are needed.
yab , its $36 here is SA

Is fantomena or anyone else entertaining paypal gift purchases?
i think this is a bad read tho
fallout 4 might be streamlined, but it's not a simple game. it's more like complicated but shallow.
fallout 4 has a ton of systems that have a ton of moving parts and are actually not really that accessible. best example would be the base building system, it's got many resources to manage that work differently, water has to be extracted from different sources, electricty must be connected by wires to be useful and people have to be assigned to food to gather it. and then there's happiness and defense and all of that. and then this system feeds into your looting because ur settlers find scrap for you that you can use to build up new stuff. and you can also make supply lines between bases to share resources etc etc
it's super complicated and very poorly tutorialized, but it's complicated. the thing is, none of these systems are actually deep tho. people need beds but you can just make a maze of beds and that's ok by them, you can assign anyone to do anything and it doesn't take into account their base stats or anything, things like that
the game is also really bad at giving you tools to interact with these systems. there's no settlmenent hud that tells you what everyone's doing or that allows you to easily set up someone for a task, you have to personally walk up and guess who's free to work there. ppl have come up with really creative solutions for this problem lke outfits but it's still something that's really bad from the design side
now an old system like the dialogue has been for sure streamlined, but i wouldn't really call it dumbed down, just poorly implemented. alpha protocol and mass effect both did a ton with very few choices, and the witcha 2 and 3 games have done summary text for dialogue choices and it's been mostly ok. that's just poor writing and poor design on beth side to not be able to go beyond "sarcastic" and different ways of saying no or yes
so i wouldn't say the game plays itself at all and i don't think that's beth's direction, i just think that they're really bad at systems and ui design and they're really bad at writing and unfortunately those things are core elements of rpg games so it makes sense for them to go in a more actiony direction with something like fo4.
i think that's a right move for them and the more they stay away from things they're clearly incompetent at the better for everyone
edit:
tl;dr - if they're trying to make the player less confused they're doing a really poor job, fallout 4 has some of the worst tutorializing and some of the most obtuse systems i've seen in years, things like not being told how to get off ur power armor or how to turn on your pipboy flashlight or maybe what legendary enemies mutating means or how to remove upgrades from weapons you just have to build them lesser upgrades to free up the old ones just prove to me that accessible might not be their #1 priority. it's probably high but u know. and im not against that direction because they clearly are crap at making actually working complicated sensible systems
Yes, when you put it like that, it kinda makes sense. I wouldn't pay for it, but from what you said it's not hard to see how someone who's currently paying on Xbox would take advantage of these features on PC. They could even get some of their friends paying too. But still, it doesn't seem likely that it will be widely accepted outside of those cases.

Was it said that Titmouse was one part of the Studios who would work on an opening if the Stretch Goal is made for Indivisible?

Weird, apparently Heroes won't support achievements even though Square and Koei's other games do.
You'll have to be a bit more specific.
Chance Hale

Just looking at their page Samurai Warriors, Dynasty Warriors, and One Piece all have achievements where it's not a listed feature for Dragon Quest: Heroes. Who knows, maybe they will show up at launch.
http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamU...evementPercentagesForApp/v0002/?gameid=410850
It does have achievements, they just didn't add to store page.

Neat then!
"Dick Starspeed"
I am already interested in the game. That is a character coupled with nothing but a good narrative
