What the hell? SC is out?
Oh, you're referring to the chapters within the first game. Way to get my hopes up.

Are you asking if the rest of the season is as good as the first episode? Definitely.
And once again my IPS managed to piss me off with sped upgrade notification. In March i will get speed upgrade and that is nice news but then i saw that users who are using TV Receiver for DTV will get way better upgrade (and i don't use their Receiver for DTV because my TV has one). I already subscribed to package with Land Phone included for better Internet speed and i don't even use that Phone (it is not even connected to modem). Damn i hate my ISP but they are better then other ones in my city

Almost. Note that there was a long delay before E2 came out and in hindsight it's obvious they had to rewrite the story, there's a slight disconnect and some things that seemed important got dropped. Still one of Telltale's best seasons.
Also what's with Borderlands E2, any news?
I'll catch with time, just you wait! I actually planned to catch derExperte too, getting there slowly but surely (><)
nice completion rate, btw

Could be worse...
And no that's not an invitation for others to post your own results.
Been like that since the 9th and nationwide maintenance is still on going until the later half of today. Good job I don't play my Steam library.
could it really? (¬‿¬)
also red text doesn't mention dragons yet again, what's wrong with you, people?
They only know for games having cheevos, that's faulty system, but there is no better. The same is true for all online gaming services, btw.
Congrats
I'm at 64% I think with 22 completed games. It could be higher, but I started some of the games I already completed on consoles. When if I'll get around to finish them again, I should probably ne around 75%.
64%? *faints*
I'm not catching to you, that's for sure (><)

At least your upload speed is better than mine XD

Life is Strange started with a girl in art school wanted to become a photographer with her "retro" camera, it's giving off major hipster vibe.
They are always watching.

Who would want to force himself to finish a game he's not enjoying? I don't think finishing all played games is a good thing
Red, bold, underlined caps case text might be the calling of Dragon The Game but not when italicised.
I'm working from home today (whilst impatiently waiting for the postie to deliver my copy of Majoria's Mask 3D) and yet again my phone trumps my fixed line broadband speed. I've got to upload today's workload via FTP later on this evening and it's going to take flipping hours.
yeah, i guess it's decent enough
it doesn't really matter since half of the stuff in anyone's library is "trash" stuff i have as part of bundles that i only add to get the card moneys
oh it's like totally a hipster game
i think it's not that bad but people sound like maybe not how really people sound in real life?
i don't live in america and i'm not a teenager but i don't think that's how people talk?
imo life is strange sounds too much like it's men trying to write girls
i mean if you're already buying games you don't like, why not waste your time as well as your money :>Who would want to force himself to finish a game he's not enjoying? I don't think finishing all played games is a good thing

yeah, I'll be happy if I ever will reach 50%, but I'm not going to play games I don't like for it.
I saw red text, was expecting Dragons. Damn you Dogg
And that sucks man. I had a hard enough time with my old 10/5*
*We paid for 10/5, we got 2-4/1-3, hence why I had a hard time with it.
And I'll spare you the pain of knowing my current speed, ofcourse.
Hope yours is fixed soon enough

Well, there's finish, and then there's get 100% of achievements. If you're not adept at gaming and you play a hard game, or you play a game that has notoriously hard achievements, or has a lot of achievements (and Tales of Maj'Eyal hits all three of those notes, for example) then a completionist would/should not choose that game. Likewise if the game has multiplayer achievements and the multiplayer scene is basically dead (Oh hi, Tomb Raider.) I've played several games where I've completed the story mode and only made 20% of achievements, Sometimes I'll go back and pick the low-hanging fruit before I move on to the next game.

I don't think anybody buys games he doesn't like
except JaseC
Sometimes you buy a game thinking it looks or seems cool and it turns out to to be bad, or the game is good, but it simply is not for you... in those cases I wouldn't torture myself playing a game I don't enjoy, I have enough games as it is to waste time on games I don't enjoy.
you have a point here, I haven't touched Tales of Maj'Eyal yet, exactly because it has scary amount of achievements, I don't see myself spending that long with any game (><)
And multi achievements for singleplay games are evil, true.
I think some steamgafer did, stallion perhaps? not sure
It might be possible, but one would need to decide to either play something horrible or skip a game entirely.
I mean, has anyone played the Tomb Raider 2013 multiplayer and completed the game? I don't think that any sane person did
i mean, i think i'm comparatively low on games at 400ish and i can't possibly say i like most of those
we all have our regrets

Trying to, the games I like less take longer to finish, sometimes months.

No it's just the free weekend, check the dlc tab in your library

From the article said:
I'm not mad at the guy, he's had a hand in some of my fav games, but he's his own worst enemy. His enthusiasm, whilst infectious, combined with a cavalier attitude to over promise on concepts only fleshed out in the interim were always going to land him in hot water. As much as I like hearing him speak he should really heed his own advice and not speak to the press and stick to being creative (at least until his idea has had chance to form). Then once the idea is fleshed out into something of a working prototype that is at least tangible then start to talk about it.
Only have 80 on Steam, and even then I doubt I'll complete all of them. Some are re-purchases from my console days.
Indiegala does Happy valentine Hour for Darksiders bundle (2 bundles for price of one), if someone want to jump on it I'll take second bundle of you let's say for... $4.5?
I still remember times when I thought 80 games are too many

i mean, i think cases like those show a lot of the issues with how developers publicize their kickstarters
kickstarter is not an investment, it's patronage. a lot of people fail to see that, and not just players, but also developers. developers should stop treating it as a marketing thing you got to sell to players like it was a finished game. i imagine there would be a lot less disappointment if people weren't lead to believe they're pre-purchasing a game
people should be smarter about it and realize that pledges are a way of helping out developers you like, and that's about it. it's just not a sure thing. and developers should stop taking advantage of people's nostalgia and start being more upfront about the dangers of development in general. stop overpromising and stop treating kickstarter projects like done games.
ugh

Yup. Molyneux's fall makes me pretty sad for the guy. He's just too enthusiastic for his own good, and too open with the press.
There could be huge flashing red letters on the top of every kickstarter saying 'IT'S NOT A PRE-PURCHASE, THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES' and people still wouldn't pay attention.
it's not entirely on people's fault
if you're a huge fan of one of these old forgotten genres and you're promised a new one from one of the creators of the original and better yet to be able to participate in its development and see it get created from the beginning, and also see it make five or ten times as much money as it was asking for and see its scope grow in size tremendously, you're likely to be hyped as all fuck
developers are super guilty of tricking people into thinking of it as a pre-purchase
A possible future AssCreed leak not from Kotaku but accidentally Ubisoft themselves?

Here's where I could say something like 'Here's what's best for Peter' but to be honest I don't really fucking know at all. If they have the funding to cover production getting Godus up to a level where 22Cans can save a little face could be an option but honestly that's stating the obvious. I can't imagine morale is particularly high there either. But hey you never know, they might do a Double Fine and have a internal game jam of sorts and turn something out that's talked about for the right reasons.

That was code name for ACIv Black Flag.
Kind of makes sense seeing as it's set in the Golden Age of piracy. I want a straight up pirate game please Monsieur Guillemot.
ACIV Game Director is working on secret project so maybe you will get one soon
Also if there is pirate game Ubisoft Singapore should be studio that makes it (they did all naval tech).

i really liked what double fine did for massive chalice by not having stretch goals at all. all the extra money just goes towards making the game better as the devs see it fit, and people can choose not to support the project beyond the original goal which should be enough for development
more devs should follow that line imo

Right MM 3D has turned up! So if I'm not posting here for a few days I'm not dead I've just fallen down a Zelda shaped hole.
I'd be happy if Sofia and Singapore (the Rogue studios along with Montreal) got a chance on something like this. The level design in Rogue is some of the most fluid and naturally laid out since the Assassin's Tombs from II/Revelations, maybe even better and the naval combat is cracked up to 11. The Legendary Battles are soooo good.

That just made me think of this thread, and it's on the front page again. JaseC posted in there, probably rolling his eyes too.
