So if Shovel Knight is in the humble monthly this time, is it safe to assume that it will be a version that won't include the upcoming DLC for free?

YMMV and all that, but I wouldn't spend €7 on it to replay it. My experience with it on the PS3 was... pretty disappointing. Aside from the fresh looking setting and pretty fun Arkham-ish melee combat, I found everything else to be rather mediocre. Uninteresting main story, fetch quests side missions, repetitive encounters, etc. etc.

If it's included it will almost certainly be just the main campaign.
They're talking about the new campaigns added to the game post launch, Plague Knight and the upcoming Specter Knight.

Not here! I'm keeping updated on the game on my phone though, on the train.
We only watch REAL football here, American football.

It's possible to avoid nearly every fight in the new Torment?
cRPGs are something I always want to like more than I typically do, and a large part of that is the combat, so this is good news to me

Unfortunately the open world sucked compared to the Assassin's Creed games.

Is the rumoured Windows 10 mandatory non-Store program install (?) scareaway confirmation box a real thing? That... would be one annoying thing, to say the least.

Thats kinda sad that you would be pissed that a developer got $20 for a game you describe as jaw dropping.
That "Gold War Chest" tho.

Urgh, does anyone actually know how to access the new DLC content for Icey? =/
Now you got me confused, Shovel Knight had such updates I assume? Because none of those are dlcs
I bought it at launch and thought and still think it's worth the money, *shrugs
It's matter of perspective, really. I wanted such a game, and so far we didn't really had any, it's no Journey, true, but it's pretty darn amazing in its own right.

If there's one thing I dislike about Atelier Sophie it's the rumor system when it comes to the optional bosses. If you fulfill the conditions you should always be able to just buy it instead of having to pray to the RNG gods.
Defeated the Light Elemtal earlier and spent like 3 in-game months trying to get the Evilking rumor to pop up, but no luck so far so far, urgh.

I'm using a different computer with Windows 10 and Firefox 51, and I don't have the same emojis as with the other computer. Some things are just crazy. It is ruining my experience of NeoGAF.
Edit: Based on the "thinking face" (🤔, I used to have the Apple ones and I currently have Emoji One:

I actually prefer shorter experiences that are more tightly crafted, than busy work meant on extending the life of the game.
are you absolutely sure you killed all bosses? I'm almost 100% sure he only shows if you killed every single one. Because he showed intermediately for me when I killed the last one and not even once before that.
Shadow of War looks like a good 4€ game for its GOTY edition.
I won the first one back in days and man if it was boring...they didn't even try to put some buildings in and there, it was just this infinite wasteland (ok, Mordor is like that, but the location was boring, the gameplay was boring with nothing else to do if not killing orcs).
Regarding Abzu, I think devs knew the game was bloody short, in fact now the game is 10€ full price.
I think the game lacks some emotional impact, the one I found in Journey, there's nothing like that here.

A lot of demoscene products are also jaw dropping.
They don't cost you €20.
Graphical fidelity is nice and all, but I'm looking for gameplay quality when I'm playing a game the most.
What rumors are that?
You're not talking about that free Chromebook rival, are you?

It shows a Balrog on the cover, but I'd expect that to just be like those giant ogre things from the first game. Or else a unique QTE boss, Sauron style.
At least it's not zombies.
But Zlatan.
Seems the dev was successful enough, according to SteamSpy. So there are enough people out there appreciating shorter, more crafted experiences.
we all do, but some games are not about gameplay, IDK how you can say that when you play VNs and like them, even those without choices, right? And VNs aren't cheap too.
And we knew this game is not gameplay heavy before release too, so those who paid full price are fine with what it is, and you haven't bought it because you knew you aren't. Simple, no?
As expected, complaining on GAF always helps.
He has shown up now
yup, complaining of gaf works so well it's scary
If a game with actual gameplay gives me characters as great as, say, Joshua and Estelle, I'll be one happy pony. Till then, I'm happy with
Well, Mass Effect did. Not much else though, of what I've played anyways

I've grown to like shorter games as well, I still love my big open world slogfests but a short narrative experiences are great too.
I can appreciate that, I just wish there where more games that I could describe as jaw dropping, I would be happy to pay whatever they wanted because those type of games come by very rarely for me personally.
That's great to hear, I look forward to what they do next.
Yeah the shitton of different emoji sets is annoying. I was looking into crafting a font for the superior Apple ones on Windows 10 for consistency across my devices but I eventually gave up.I'm using a different computer with Windows 10 and Firefox 51, and I don't have the same emojis as with the other computer.
