So, looking at some post here and there Year Beast Brawl is defo considered pay2win. Good job Valve. First you do paywalled events, cooldown timer shit, now this. Nothing, but cynical monetization after cynical monetization, and this is counting silly things like music kits in CS (lol). Basically as an RPS article said, it's a mercenary attitude towards the playerbase. Very disheartening that this is what their efforts amount to nowadays. Actual exciting gameplay ideas, community requested features, critical bug fixing, improving the servers? Nnnnnope.

Alright. Dark Souls is almost done.
Just took a more couple tries with Manus and once I figured his moves it became much easier. Getting the timing on the Silver Pendant took me some time though, hah.
Supposedly he is the toughest of the DLC bunch, so I waded willy-nilly into Kalameet's valley.
Wrong.
After the required first death experience, Gough doing his stuff, I went back at least half a dozen times. But that badass just isn't getting easier :/
I figured when to dodge his head-sweeps and his flame attacks did become much easier with my black knight shield. But damaging him is so, so hard! At most I managed 15%!!!
No clue what to do. And to think his tail drops a good weapon. Oh vey. How am I gonna get that I have no clue.
He takes so few damage whether be pyro or my maxed out holy claymore.
Hm. Had enough though. Gonna take a break. Still need to savor the sweet victory taste of Manus

They dislike money and enjoy downsizing their company and laying off dozens of people at a time.
Huge ass maps, you can generate custom maps with the use of heightmaps (for example, the ones you can export from SimCity... 4, I think it is?)
And... Other things. It looks neat! Also the water simulation. So good.
I NEED IT
It's still cool to idle games for card drops now, but then play the game later right? Because sometimes I want to get those anime cards while they are still selling for a lot, but I still plan on playing the game later.

Kalameet is tough, but he definitely gets easier with practice. The tail cut on the other hand is ridiculously hard. You have an incredibly limited window where you can hit his tail, and only after he uses one of two moves (and one of the moves requires him to land in a very specific way after attacking you, so it's not even guaranteed).
It took me at least a dozen tries to get the tail cut on my first playthrough, but I beat him on the first try on my NG+ playthrough, with the tail cut.
Edit: Don't use Pyromancy (except maybe Power Within) on Kalameet, he is highly resistant to Fire. What kind of build are you running? I'm guessing Faith heavy if you are using a Holy (Divine?) Claymore.

For Kalameet try to use have <25% equipment load. Rolling and running is your best friend on that fight. Especially if you want the tail weapon.
I was starting to doubt myself xD
Killer choice
I know, same here, but I thought it would be easier to present the question like that.

Exceed 1,2 and 3
We're getting critical bug fixes and community requested features though.
Wouldn't know about Year Beast though... Haven't bothered playing it yet. I should though.
Glad to see they've managed to make you a cynic too though!

Is it the kind of intimidation that prevents one from playing the game or is it the good kind, the one which makes you play more?

Well, I am not in the position to judge. I idle a lot too.
In my case it keeps me from playing, because the most creative thing I created was the dancing cube thingie of doom.

i just feel terrible when they add cards to a game i loved a lot and i end up idling it

My character is kinda all over the place but I mainly am a pyro.
Kalameet is pretty quickly changing his attacks, so I should probably get a faster weapon. I do have a maxed out lightning Iaito.
Good to know he is fire resistant. He's the penultimate boss and I was kinda hoping to breeze through with my overleveled SL115 character, haha.

It's crazy how the survival genre has exploded on pc.

Seems like every foil I get are the worst ones to get.
Well the main thing with Kalameet is learning when to dodge/block, and when to just straight up run away. His fire breath attacks will pretty much kill you in one, and since they hit multiple times this applies even if you block. But most of them have a limited range, so when you see him doing certain attacks, just run away as fast as you can to get outside their range. The one exception is the fire breath that fires in a line in front of him. That one has doesn't have a range limit, so you need to side roll out of it.
I don't think Claymore is necessarily too slow of a weapon, you just need to not get greedy with it. Maybe only swing once or twice, and don't use strong attacks unless you know for sure you have time to pull it off. I was just surprised you were using a Divine weapon, as you really only see those on Faith heavy builds, and I didn't get the impression you were using miracles. If you don't have a ton of faith, it's not a great way to do damage (although they are useful in the catacombs). Stick to Fire/Chaos/Lightning weapons if you don't have much Dex/Str, Normal weapons if you have high Dex/Str, and only use Magic/Enchanted/Divine/Occult if you actually have a lot of Int/Fth.
But yeah, Kalameet is definitely not a fight that anyone breezes through.
not that is crazy, why it did is crazy, isn't that opposite to fun or something?
it is for me (><)
The smugglers are your ride out, so turning on em might lead to some problems later in the mission. That's all I'll say to avoid spoilers.
Seems like every foil I get are the worst ones to get.
you haven't even come close to worst, my last foil isn't even wort 8 cents!
And last two boosters I got were for radical roaches and these are literally worth nothing and when I unpacked them I got only doubles.
I wish I was joking, I'm not (._.)

Same, maybe I just don't have any imagination then, but I need narrative, goals and/or structure in my games.
Fork Parker is an amazing human being, and his compiled works should be a required reading for all of people.

At that point you might as well get the others and craft a foil badge.
He seems pretty upset about something he "doesn't give a fuck" about so I'm not that inclined to agree with you.

Indeed. I enjoy the idea of survival games, but very many fail to create a truly compelling gameplay loop. I'll point to DocSeuss' article on why S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is head and shoulders above the rest.
I would love a book of Fork-isms.

Also, very cheap on Nuuvem. I couldn't resist.
Finished REmaster invisible enemy mode. Wasn't as hard as I expected.
Also, Kalameet isn't all that. The tough part comes if you want the tail weapon and are soloing, thankfully you don't need it for any achievements and it kind of sucks anyway. Other than that it's not too hard.

Other than that it's not too hard.stalker is also really enjoyable cos the survival elements are there to add nuance to an already functional gameplay of shooting stuff
when survival is all you got i just generally don't find it too entertaining
Alright I guess I'll stick with them. thanks for the advice.
Yeah, there's just nothing engaging for me about the cycle most games have where you have to find resources so you can live longer so you can find more resources.

How does Nuuvem work if I am in Canada? Do I have to use a vpn? May jump on the lego bundle http://www.nuuvem.com.br/produto/2657-bundle-lego
the real question is... why would anyone want The Culling Of The Cows foil badge? Those foils are so cheap for reason (><)
In case you guys think I'm kidding here is my foil collection:
The most expensive there is worth something like 15 cents. 3 of those foils I got first on market too, oh irony
the moral of this story, when you get foil worth 30 cents, be happy!

Can anyone help me? Sorry for only popping in sporadically these days
My girlfriend had Godus on her laptop and it froze on her last night with an error She says "S3E" something, I think it's this one:
And I've wiped the game off the drive and reinstalled, and verifying the integrity results in ~160 or so files failing to validate. Doesn't matter if I delete and reinstall again.

That's a really awesome deal, I may have to double dip even though I already have them on xbox. For me (in the US) as long as the key isn't region locked (It will tell you if it is) you just check out normally and redeem the key like any other. Someone correct me if wrong.
If it's not region locked, you don't need VPN, if you can't add it to the cart or buy it, it's locked one way or another, not necessary on steam can be on Nuuvem, then you may need VPN, I just don't bother in such cases.
Not sure about lego games.
