Anyone else's Steam client stuck on the verfying login information screen? It just times out for me. Been happening for the last 15 minutes or so.

Edit: Restarting the client several times seems to have fixed it.

Hello everyone, it's been a while.

I just wanted to pop in and say that Dishonored 2 is a very good game and all of you should play it. I'm currently playing through it.

On that note, Deus Ex Mankind Divided is ALSO a very good game that all of you should play. Just finished it a few days ago.

That is all.

very disappointed that deus ex is being put on the backburner for Marvel stuff :|

I'm assuming the dev team that made and released the shmup side of the game weren't sharing revenue?

Last I talked to them at PAX the reason they released the Shmup side was because the team who did it cranked it out super fast and the adventure game part of the mashup was and still is under development.

Ah, possibly. I'm sure Playism will comment on the removal later today... especially as it's selling keys via its own store that no longer work.

What about owners of the game?

Nothing changed there. They still have access to it.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
ESO Morrowind Gameplay trailer

seems the new class can shoot out Cliff Racers at enemies heh

There is already so much stuff to do in the Elder Scrolls Online - and now we're getting what appears to be a full-blown expansion that looks massive.

I would say that the current existing "Gold Edition" ESO is easily the best value in gaming available right now. Morrowind is gonna be nuts.

Spent abooouuut a half hour re-cropping that top sophie so you all can use it in HD. :p Protip for future smug faces, capture in high res with no anti-aliasing. That makes things much easier. Once I'm outta class, I'm gonna waifu2x it and scale it down for smooth edges.

Done all the Resi 7 DLC now
apart from Ethan Must Die mode (fuck that)
and it's mostly fairly throwaway stuff but pleasant to play through.

Alot of it is essentially challenge remixes of locations from the campaign, so how you feel about resi 7 combat could really affect your outlook there :p

Nightmare: wave based horde mode bsaically set in the basement of the main house. Neat diversion but I'd be shocked at anyone but the staunchest completionists playing through this more than a handful of times.

Bedroom: puzzle based scenario, much like the "happy birthday" tape from the main game. Good but you'll only play it once.

Ethan Must Die: argh!! >_<
Randomised and remixed scenario from the main game where you must explore the mansion to open the greenhouse and then take down Margurite. You rely on randomised loot, and everything kills you in 1 or 2 hits. In a word: unfair.
I've not even managed to get to the boss yet, and am sick of trying at this point.

21: Everyone seems to have a downer on this mode, but I actually really liked it! yes it's blackjack, but it's dressed up in that macabre Saw-like manner from many other spots in the game. Plus there is an almost CCG-like quality to it given the use of special ability cards. Only thing I'll say is it's rather slow to play, it could do with being sped up.

Daughters: Basically a prologue to the game. You'll only play it twice to see both endings.

Happy Birthday Jack:
A dumb but fun time trial mode, emphasising resource management. Could see this being played a lot by fans of it as they try to perfect runs and get all unlockables.

It's fun but nothing here is worth £25 though (I got a really good deal on the season pass though, so that's why I picked it up), so it'll be down to the mystery story episode to really determine whether it's worth it.

PS: I have no idea why the vol. 2 DLC is more expensive than vol. 1 on Steam, they both offer similar scope of gameplay and content =/

Question guys, a friend of mine accidently bought RE7 again on cdkeys. Not sure how it happened but he tried the key on Steam thinking it was another key and it just reinstalled RE7 again. The question is, is this key now considered used or can he sell it?

If it didn't activate anything, then it's unused. He can find his list of product licences/activations here if he's unsure.

how do you accidentaly buy the game again, and then how do you use that key thinking its another? o_O

Anyway, the key should still be good I believe, ask JaseC, he knows for sure.

edit: speak of the australian devil

I loved 21.
 
Night in the Woods falls apart in the last act in a way I've never seen any game match, and that includes Mass Effect 3. Absurd, full of plotholes, incomprehensible, and so on. Really hope I'll sleep on it and realize I missed something.
