More time for backlog blah blah, but I'm still mad.

STEAM | February 2015 - Steam GOTY results still delayed

At least one of those guys has an axe to grind. He changed his avy after getting called out for shitting on action RE, thinking everyone would agree with him.
Yeah well... Atleast I had the privilege of knowing her for almost 20 years, y'know? That's always something!
I take whatever solace I can in that fact.

To be fair, if preorder items were the tipping point, you probably should've stayed away to begin with
it wasn't just that...but yeah if that was the only issue I could have stomached it
People on GAF can be ridiculous when it comes to reviews. Last week it was "How dare they give bad reviews to a game I've never played" and now this week it's "How dare they give decent reviews to a game I've never played."
That's fair. There's no way you could go into a review of DOA5 Last Round not knowing exactly what the series is, and expecting this one to be any different would be incredibly naive (especially since it is a remaster, not a whole new game). I think it makes sense to mention that the fan service can detract from your enjoyment of the game, but hinging a whole review on "hey guys, there are still bouncy boobs in DOA" (if that's what the review actually did) doesn't really tell the audience anything they don't already know.
You can install it since the subs weren't emptied, but you can't run the game (unless the executable isn't tethered to the client). Off the Record is in the same boat. Good job, Capcom.
You can just go and check manually.
Folders are (almost always) named as the game and if not, it's usually an acronym of the name.
Any folder with a game name you know you won't play anymore can just be deleted.
Also, if you try demos, I've had issues with demos not uninstalling correctly some times.
Hahaha, amazing.

They haven't made a game since Poker night 2 almost 2 years ago and the last adventure game they made was Puzzle Agent 2 in 2011. I don't seem them ever returning at this point. They struck gold with Quicktime videos with occasional dialog options and this deal seems to only cement that as their future products..

That's my thoughts, too.
They should have just kept quiet about the game until they were about ready to release it instead of delaying it 3 times.

Last week? It's always been like this for hyped up games, especially exclusives.
More Disney games are coming out today, heh, this one is interesting:

I thought the cleaner only removes leftover stuff.
What about those free weekend games?
On an unrelated note... why did Falcom stop making PC games? ((
I really want this: Tokyo Xanadu (coming to Vita this summer in Japan).
Oh well, at least it looks like the english version of Xanadu Next (which is on PC) will arrive soon (as Xseed registered a domain for it last month). For now, I'm having a blast with Trails in the Sky.

So how many hours will it take before this game gets tagged as a Psychological Horror with Nudity?

Because Japan has practically no PC market and no one ever thought that us gaijins would create such a big demand for those games.
Could be that they marked it private (SteamDB can't see anymore, since they don't own).
Oh I know, I was just talking about the Order insanity. It's not that people are any more insane about reviews now than they have been in the past, it's just remarkable that so many are worked up over such an unremarkable game, especially when they hadn't played it at the time.
And with Rev 2, I can understand being skeptical of the quality, but I just don't get the outrage that it could possibly review better than The Order of all things.
Hah, yeah, I remember they saying that they won't release the Steam version of Ys Origin in Japan because "It might not even sell 1/100th of that, or 2k copies" (that was when they were announcing that it sold 200k copies on Steam).
I mean, they aren't even willing to give the Japanese PC market a second chance

Ah, so it's the salt that drove them crazy.
Well, let's see how their 'release a single episode each three months... maybe... if we like it' flies with the weekly schedule of most TV shows.

It might be that the Japanese retail is fully owned by Yakuza, and Falcom doesn't want to mess with that.

Well, more and more Japanese companies seem to be willing to do PC ports just for the western audience. I'd say things are looking pretty good.Hah, yeah, I remember they saying that they won't release the Steam version of Ys Origin in Japan because "It might not even sell 1/100th of that, or 2k copies" (that was when they were announcing that it sold 200k copies on Steam.

Oh, that's what you mean by "game".
For me, The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us and all these productions are games. The gameplay is not about mashing buttons or being skilled, it's about making choices. It's different, but that doesn't make them lesser games.
In this case, yeah, I'm sorry for you, but TT probably won't make any more "classical" games.
If the app went back to being private SteamDB would say it's been deleted, and SteamDB's bot does own the game since you can view its depot contents. Also, the game is now showing up in my shared library (along with Off the Record), which means exfgls has indeed been removed as per the history tab.
Something interesting I noticed, though: Capcom added a few DLC apps, which I'm going to guess relate to, at least in part, the DLC that's presently exclusive to the X360.

It's not that simple. Japan hasn't ever really had a big PC market (at least not since console gaming came on the scene), outside of extreme niche titles and porn games. But now, even console games are struggling to sell in Japan, where the audience has moved mainly to handheld and mobile. If even consoles are in trouble, I can't imagine the PC market is particularly stable.
While it's a shame to see Falcom abandon PC development after so many years of being one of the last remaining holdouts, the move to PSP/Vita has done well for them. It would be impossible for them to justify going back to PC if they are trying to appeal to Japanese audiences. I don't know if Western interest alone is enough to justify a port, though I suppose these days a lot of console only, niche JRPGs are getting PC ports, so that might be a possibility.
I think one of these days I may need to pick up a Vita to use as a Falcom machine though.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I am suddenly reminded that Gearbox made Colonial Marines.If you were at the PAX Prime Gearbox panel two years ago, Homworld keys are now here
Except the part where it's literally just text that says "<< Test Steam Code >>"
TT only makes 3D VNs nowadays, really.
Actually, no. That's an insult to the gameplay that can be found in various VNs.

As with all the other modern King's Bounty stuff, it's literally more of the same. If you liked those and want more of that, this will do.
If you're hoping for something new or improved, look elsewhere.

Not everyone can travel halfway around the world for stuff like that.

You are right, and I might get a Vita just for Falcom games as well. Also really looking forward to Ys 8 (although I might end getting the PS4 version instead lol).

Good to see Capcom taking out GFWL. Knew it was happening but it has been pretty silent as of late. I hope that they work on getting the whole series on PC. Suck that the 2 stand alone stories and 1 are still only on xbox.
