Why do I have 150 games installed?

It sounds suspiciously close to number of my unfinished games. Does it answer your question? :)

Assuming you already have the Uplay client downloaded and installed, you should find an 'Activate Product' option hiding (unintuitively) in its settings menu (the gear icon in the top-right corner).

Open Uplay

Wait five minutes for a useless update

Click on that gear icon on the top-right

Activate Product


Finally got back home....there is no Activate Product option in settings menu. I hate Uplay. The only options from the drop down menu are:

Is Legend of Dungeon really good that people want it?
As far as this most recent wave of randomly generated dungeon crawling rogue-likes goes... it's bottom tier.

I'd take Hack, Slash, Loot, Teleglitch, Risk of Rain or Sword of the Stars: The Pit over it.

It has probably already been mentioned, but since there is some Deponia discussion going on the last few pages, if you buy the trilogy, it is cheaper right now to do so individually ($16.97) rather buying the bundle ($23).

Great to know, it might be a better experience during the Halloween but any time is good. It's also a game that it's not for everyone. Many will not enjoy the game or the story. I think it was quite clever to be honest.

After seeing it on a giant bomb quick look I was sold on it. Hoping to see those dollars stretched a little further, but 50% will work.

Yes, above Account Information you should have Activate Product as the first option in the dropdown menu.

You're not trying to activate a key from within one of the individualised instances of Uplay that launch when you run an Ubisoft game from Steam, are you?
 
woke up today, voted, got a snowglobe foil and had a Pit foil from idling. nice. :b After selling, should have enough for both legend of dungeon and deponia, which of course both have cards as well....argh what a cycle.hhmmm what tto do

I'm probably the only person in the world who hasn't bought sleeping dogs, so I'm leaning towards getting the complete package. That deal is around for some time yet, so I can ponder it, do not want to go too overboard.

Actually put off by the fact that Legend of Dungeon is a rougelike with generated dungeons and permadeath. I feel like Rogue Legacy scratched that itch already...

I could overclock this before but a Nvidia update broke MSI Nvidia Overclock and havent cared to look for a solution.

No...yes. Are you implying that there is more than one version of Uplay? What was Ubisoft thinking?


Sigh, where do I go to find the actually useful Uplay client?

Tempted to buy Sir, you are being hunted. Is it worth it at 40% off the usual price?

I've heard good things, apparently a lot of fun and most succinctly described as a single player DayZ. I'm not sure I want any more early access kit right now though, googling around it looks like they're adding co-op to it, that's probably when I'll bite, that'd be a blast.
 
I finished 3 of those, and actually enjoyed 2 :(

I don't think Blades of Time is really that bad.
Even finished it on the 360, which has much worse performance.

Playing through Guacamelee.
I got the dimension-shift ability and well I think my 360 controller is boned. The R-trigger acts on its own after being pressed.
*sigh*
 
After selling off 61 cards, I now have an incredible $10.98. That's right. One crisp Alex Ham', with nearly enough left over for a Mr. George Washington. I'll never forget you guys even though that I've struck it rich. Stay warm in the poor house.

I could use more space:

The 807GB free is essentially just wasted space since I'd only use it if I did a major organisational reshuffle (I don't actually have terabytes of gifs ;)). The other drives sorely need to be replaced with the next rung up, though.

No...yes. Are you implying that there is more than one version of Uplay? What was Ubisoft thinking?

It's installed alongside the game launcher. C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\Uplay.exe.

I'm just thinking that I might try a new playthrough of Dark Souls now....

BROTHER

i got this on GOG as something to play for halloween. i put about 45 minutes into it and couldn't really get into it. it had a few great jump scares, cool art and great atmostphere, but i feel it took the "figure it out on your own" thing a bit too far. i feel like the majority of the time was spent wandering around the woods with no clue what to do next or how to get back to the house.

i'm going to give it another shot, though

Yes, it's like I said, it's a game to might not work with everyone and the reason is exactly what you wrote. I hope you can give it a second chance, who knows, it might "click" this time around. If not, no harm done. ;)

After seeing it on a giant bomb quick look I was sold on it. Hoping to see those dollars stretched a little further, but 50% will work.

Nice, make sure to leave some impressions in case you end up getting it!

I wish the bundle contained a key for Commandos: Strike Force. Bring it back to Steam, Squeenix.

Least it would have been something I didn't own!

I was hoping for Final Fantasy VII since I never bought it on Steam. I mean you would have expected them to give at least one Final Fantasy, it being their title franchise. Instead I've ended up just buying it from the Steam sale.

I immediately regret buying Legend of Dungeon. I'm a big rougelike fan and a big brawler fan, and this game combines the worst of both genres.

Emphasis on this. If Q.U.B.E still wins the vote, then the community votes will have reached a new level of ignorance.

or the general community do not know that it is in a bundle. i have tons of friends who think humble bundle are the only game bundle out there
 
I have never played GTA. I am very casual gamer. How is sleeping dog? Does is it have many side activities ( sports, driving?) I might buy one from this sale under 5 and this looks like the one so far.
