Sounds like we want DQ Builders over FFXV from Square.

Sounds good to me.

I definitely would prefer that

 

[Last Baron]

Card glitchers, anyone else notice that as you get down to the last 2-3 games the glitch becomes super hit or miss?

 

[JaseC]

Has the EU flag. I take it that means it's region locked?

Yeah. All of the game's retail key subs are runtime-restricted, even those for the US and Canada.

The one FF game I want from them is World of FF.

I just love how fucked over my platform of choice gets by SE

Just a bit pissed after their latest shit with Nier.

I see that private server is returning. Stress tested with 10,000 concurrent players. Quite impressive.

My man

I want to play that so much

 

[Saty]

Is Cdkey's EU flag = Steam's EU distinction? (Which is what exactly?).

Publishers are free to region-lock keys to whichever regions they like. Europe, in this case, refers to:

Germany, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Great Britain, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, Monaco, Andorra, San Marino, Holy See (Vatican City State), Faroe Islands, Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey, Aland Islands, Greenland, Gibraltar, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, XK, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Falkland Islands (Malvinas), New Caledonia, Reunion, French Polynesia

Card glitchers, anyone else notice that as you get down to the last 2-3 games the glitch becomes super hit or miss?

Yeah, usually once I get down to 2 or cards left, I can't get the trick to work anymore.

I've found a new way to get all the cards though. This only applies if you don't have to the 2 hour idle first restriction. What I do is I set Idle Master to idle the cards for 2 hours first and then every few minutes I just quit Idle Master while it's idling. I usually get cards each time I quit, even if I've only been idling for a few minutes. By the time I'm done with all the cards, I've typically only idled each game less than an hour. Games with more cards tend to screw it up though. The only bad thing about this method is it takes time constantly restarting Idle Master so you can quit it. At least for me, it takes a few minutes for it to read my badges page.

 

[Hektor]

I think I missed something. What did SE do to PC users?

Most probably delaying the pc port. Nobody knows for certain tho

 

[Spirited]

I think I missed something. What did SE do to PC users?

Delayed PC version. At least it's not "early 2017" anymore and instead just "2017" while the ps4 version got a release date.

Got one, kind of wished I backed this on KS. Oh well! Can wait.

I don't know if this is the right thread or I should search from something Humble-related, however...

Some NIS-America games are on sale on HumbleBundle Store. Disgaea sales isn't irresistible, imo, but Stranger of Sword City at 22€ seems very good.

[Lashley]

So tempted to get Watch Dogs 2, even though I've got a ton of games in my backlog.

Then don't.

 

[Lashley]

Then don't.

I'm waiting on the Christmas sale, but the game looks great.

 

[Monooboe]

It disappoints me that Watch Dogs 2 lacks a completion tracker and incorporates a distance-based icon unveiling system in lieu of "towers" that unmask everything within a particular area. I realise this was done so players wouldn't feel compelled to overwhelm themselves by seeking out each and every little thing, but I hope AssCreed 2017 is more in line with Ubitradition.

I agree! While I kind of like that discovery by the unveiling system but I really miss a tracking and sense of complition of collecting things. Also I do like that many of the collectibles are enviromental puzzles.

Also I miss the minigames from the first one, feels like a more empty world.

That said, I am really liking the game.

 

[morningbus]

The game looks good, but your desire to play it is 100% correlated to the hype that exists around a launch of a game.

The game will be there for you in the future. The only thing you will be missing is a too-forgiving communal dialogue.

 

[Nyteshade517]

I've played about 27 hours so far (mostly doing the side missions/activities and some of the main story)...I really like it

there are some things that are frustrating (which happens with any game) but the pros outweigh any cons for me

Enough of this logic!

You're right, it's just the hype. I'll wait for a sale, same with Civ 6

 

[JaseC]

Yeah, even the network node puzzles are incorporated into the environment now, which is a nice touch.

What the hell, I just got an invite to attend the Nintendo Switch hands-on reveal event in January. It's a legitimate invite, but I don't know why I was invited or why the invitation is at the London venue of the event (I live in America, and there's an event on the same day happening in New York and a third one in Japan). Might be some odd connection I had or a mistake, but I would take it up if I had money and time right now.

Not very Steam GAF related, but was a bit confused and guess I just wanted to somewhat be confused and stealth brag in place of me not being able to go.

Glad to help. Set a goal to beat two games you've been meaning to play before buying Warchdogs 2.

Find a London Steam-Gaffer, make him or her an official representative of your company and give them the invite.

Accept but only under one condition, that you may make a Youtube video about it and monetize it.

 

[Dusk Golem]

That's would not be a bad idea if it wasn't for one of the details which is talking collaboration on the Switch. I'm assuming I got invited because I make games, small games though. It wouldn't be impossible for me to make ports for the Switch on some of them, but I'm surprised they even reached out to me.

If you're suspicious of it, just contact nintendo.

I'm not suspicious of it, it's actually an invite though they may have had a bit of error in location there. But I couldn't attend at this point in time, I'm in a bit of a financially tight position right now and I'm busy in January, so would have to pass, but wasn't what I expected to see in my email this morning.

Steamgaf, I can't decide which game to play next. Which one did you guys like best of these:

Prison Architect
Shadowrun Returns
Valdis Story
FFXIII-2
Ys VI
Technobabylon

Or I could finally try to understand how to play Crusader Kings II.

valdis story is a pretty straight forward side scrolling action game with some rpg elements, I'd go with that, but honestly all of those games are in a different genre lol, so just the matter of whatever you feel like playing

Technobabylon is the shortest among those IMO and is a really neat Blade Runner-like adventure game.
Ys 6 or Valdis ought to be the short of those taht fall into the action or rpg category so play either afterwards.

Ehh, having a pretty rough week.

I thought I'd ask if anyone had any recommendations for a game to play to take my mind off things for a bit.

Spoiler

Getting a divorce, and my best friend just had a stroke and can't talk

It doesn't help that I recently played SEEN (https://basedgamer.com/review/2669/seen-by-polychroma-games-learn-to-love-again) either I suppose.

Anyways, here's my list of games:

Ask the contact if they could switch you to another location. Sound very official and important. Make sure you tell them you are doing international business.

Also close the letter with the switch pun from earlier.

Cth: play Intrusion 2. It's the 2D shooter equivalent of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, at least as far as boss battles. Super fun game.

Technobabylon. Or dive in CK2.

A good place to start in CK2 is in Ireland somewhere; the isolation and size of neighboring counties gives you a slow start and will introduce you to a bunch of core concepts as you conquer the island, and, hopefully, move into Britain.

That's really rough, sorry you have to go through that.

I'd recommend Puzzle Agent if you want to play a very quirky and fun Adventure with Layton-like Puzzles.
Or Civ V if you want to forget the world for 7 hours at a time.

Or dive in CK2.

Thanks a lot for that tip, I'll keep it in mind!
