Installed it recently and did anyone try to play in node mode with unlocked cursor? I didn't really it that way, felt badly implemented. Locked mode is OK, I guess.
Anyone got any of those Steam Wallet deals?
Remember buy 1 get 1 50% off @ Target? Those were the days. But yea Steam is way too popular now Valve don't care for that stuff anymore.

The last good deal I remember was b1g1 for 50 percent off.Anyone got any of those Steam Wallet deals?
I miss that. Best buy Pls
That's mainly to do with retailers, not Valve.
Whenever the opportunity arises I always grab $100+ in cards as the wallet deals only come around once or twice a year.
At least this time you know going in that the story is trash. You can focus on the god-tier gameplay without any distractions. I've been itching for a replay for a few months now but I just know if I reinstall it I'll lose another 50+ hours to it. That time would be better spent playing stuff from my backlog.
I thought it was always some crosspromotion type of thing. I haven't seen that deal in a long while now.

wbacon made another post on the Steam forums about the RE7 demo situation
said they still haven't figured out what's goin on and may just have to wait until tomorrow when Steam can help
makes me question the decision to try and launch this on a Sunday knowing that if there's any issues you're basically out of luck until Monday anyway

Yeah, I believe it's all on retailers.
Here in Indonesia, we've had this 'national online shopping day' event last week. Lots of local retailers are giving big deals like 50% off for Steam wallet cards.
I still have a good amount of Steam money, leftovers from the summer sale. I barely bought anything on that sale. Maybe I'll spend some this time.
Someone asked Valve to change the Free on Demand sub to Unavailable a week-and-a-half ago, presumably because they mistakenly feared people would otherwise be able to download the demo early, but forgot to have it changed back to Available in time for release.

yeah me too, its now working for me!
Oh god, I tried it with TitS.
It's so smooth.
I want to cry.
I spent 70 hours with the choppy mess the game was under Win10.
I should have waited.

Tried a bit of Mordheim last night.
Seems like a complex game, I'll start with the tutorial. The tutorial consists of a couple of mouseover bubbles tha say this is where you start a mission. How do I recruit people? What's the difference between leaders, henchmen and the other one? Now I'm in a mission, is there a Map? What am I doing? Overwatch? Perception? How come I'm getting massacred in two hits while my weapons are as effective as a pool noodle?
I know I've gotten lazier since the old days with massive manuals but c'mon...

Played a little of it when it came out, made a lady who walked around in underwear, ate roasted mushrooms, killed my zombie self, was kind of cool. Too many other games right now, didn't want to get too involved especially with the FTP part of doing daily logins and stuff. Plus me and souls-likes is frustration waiting to happen.

Good news--though I wonder if they will do it. Doubling the discount seems like something that doesn't happen on Steam anymore.
Unfortunately(?) I'm not desperate enough to try TellTale DRM... especially given their engine woes.

listen to the mad man
You would have got there eventually. The first island isn't too hard. If you use paper, you'll be able to track the rotation of the rotating room -- if you didn't get that far then try going under the locked wooden gate by clicking the path under it.
The truly unfair parts of Riven come later; one magic pixel puzzle (
the level to open the cave mouth
the machine hidden such that it requires you to close the door
the species symbols
the fire marbles
The difficulty is way less balanced than a souls game so it feels way harder.

at 1440p with everything at it's highest the RE7 demo runs ok but there are some dips...but setting the AO to SSAO instead of HBAO+ gets almost double the frame rate in some areas
that's with a 4690K/1070...don't have whatever the newest NVIDIA drivers are though so dunno if that would make a huge difference...just changing that one setting though for anyone that may have any issues could be a big help (full game with more polish and newer NVIDIA drivers in January could make this all meaningless anyway)

Why is everyone in such a hurry for a demo?
Yeah Let it die is good, wish it was on PC too though

yup Day of the Tentacle still completely holds up, its as smart and funny as it was back then. Cant believe I remembered like 90% of the puzzles too (I did play it multiple times back then, but still). I bet ill remember even more of Full Throttle when it releases, I played that game all the time when I was a kid.
47 games now, guess I will finish the challenge afterall.

Rogue One is pretty good, its like a war film set in Star Wars universe. It's a shame DICE's Battlefront is such a bland experience.
Well, someone in the world hates me right now. I received a refund on one of the blacklisted Last Survivor keys I purchased on G2A (I'm waiting for a ruling on the other one), however the seller was convinced that I'd redeemed the key on an alt. account. Trust me, Mr. Mystery Person: I didn't spend the past couple of days trying to fleece you out of your ~USD$1.70.
i didn't love rouge one so much
i found it had all the same pacing issues as that other new star wars movie but none of the likeable characters and classic star wars charm
it does make me wish there was a kotor 3 tho

After playing it, Im officially hyped. I got the bad ending but damn I really enjoyed my time with it. First person is an interesting take that works. I feel like if it was still third person, shit would be more like RE6

RE7 demo for me is puke central, severe motion sickness. But the thing is I played it on a console, I was sitting meters away from TV, I shouldn't be getting this.
Oh and I can play KOTOR on my phone, it's pretty neat.
It's about the everyday little guys in the Rebellion, who lead unfortunate and depressing lives. None of them is a Skywalker or friend with one. They are not charming but they are definitely likeable.

Tip: Try playing again but using what you learned in the VHS tape BEFORE you watch the VHS tape.
Did you try changing some of the movement settings around? RE7 has a lot of different options, including for the camera.

Haven't seen it yet, but I want it to be the adventures of Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors.
And I want a new Jedi Knight game. Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 3. It's time!

Anyone played The Secret World in recent years and have any idea of how it's come about? Director left a while back but Dreamfall Chapters was honestly pretty awful now that it's finished so it's not like Ragnar is perfect.
i get the feeling that rouge one would've worked much better as like a game, where you get to see a bit more about each character rather than the "this guy is kind of a jedi", "this guy is a smart ass robot" you get in the movie
i do think it was cool how they explored the greyer side of star wars but the movie itself is kind of ehh
not terrible or anything, but i'll forget about it soon enough

This 2D game looks interesting
From the trailer it's a Castlevania-like action adventure game.

Both Free Weekends ended several hours ago. No pop-ups; instead, "License Expired" was added to the app names in the client. I'd say "SubscriptionExpired" either refers to actual subscription packages (e.g. EVE Online's 1/3/6/12-month subscription plans) or simply isn't used.
It's not instant (usually during next week, but I haven't kept tabs on it).
While I'm not 100% sure if that url used, but at least pattern was same/similar. (using Wireshark to determine where page is loaded from)
I assume Steam doesn't instantly delete expired licenses server side, which is why it's delayed.
As this is fairly recent, it could be related to change for free weekend to use Free On Demand subs.(Meaning it was ignored for "Free Weekend" type subs)
