Wow! Also, Starbound had pre-order minimum price of $15, versus DayZ's $30, correct? I suppose there's also the higher tiers of purchases in the Kickstarter and website for Starbound that come into play... Either way, it is a really great showing from two excellent titles.

And yeah, it's pretty wild that nothing on sale so far can bring down this titan. I've been sorely tempted to pick it up this entire sale, but that $30 price point makes my wallet weep quietly to itself... And I never got around to buying/playing the original version with Arma2 either.

My suggestion would be to wait right now.

The game is in a great place, but it is extremely light on content.

Guacamelee, is on sale again. Was it a community vote winner earlier?

Yes.

Buy it, the price is only gonne go up and its worth it.

Price will not increase for a long, long time.

 

[-MD-]

How much will it be when it releases?

They haven't said but it'll likely be 50/60

Guacamelee ==>> Holy shit what an amazing game.

Guacamelee ==>> Holy shit what an amazing game.

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL Y'ALL!

 

[Hakkuei]

I guess people who love Super Hexagon play it with a touchpad? I've played it on PC with a keyboard and the game is so clunky and unintuitive to control and play. I can see the appeal but I really don't like it since most of the time it seems the game is screwing me over with its controls. I'd like it a whole lot more if it was mouse driven.

Nope, I'm playing it with the arrow keys and it's almost perfect. You do have to get used to it though.
Make sure you have v-sync disabled because it causes a lot of input lag, which makes the game practically unplayable. That could explain why you thought it was so clunky.

About how much content does it have right now vs when it was still a mod for Arma2?

 

[redfirm]

How much will it be when it releases?

Same as arma 3. Round 40 or 50

 

[JaseC]

Exactly, you are right Jase, but in the case of Spiderman Shattered Dimensions the name is unchanged, the question is "when" Acti is gonna release both games (in case they are planning on release Wolverine)?

Amazon no longer sells Wolverine itself (copies are instead sourced from affiliates), my guess being that the licence expired some time ago, so unless Acti pulls a Konami and decides to get it back, I'd consider a Steam release dead in the water. Shattered Dimensions is in a similar boat, as per my ninja-edit, but since Acti still has the Spider-Man licence there is a faint possibility of this changing.

Evidently the success of belated PC ports (or rather, in this context, Steam releases), beginning with Alan Wake last year, has caught the attention of Acti, but at this juncture it doesn't seem as though this will bear any fruit.

I read this and then bought it. Was bothering me for the last couple hours having it in my cart.

Praying Valdis or Volgarr show up tomorrow.

 

[drgambit]

How else would you croak in the game?

[_hekk05]

I ate too many weird stuff and lost most of my health, so I thought it would be a good idea to smash a frog in the face with my axe that has 1% durability left, D:

Game is great though, and I get to play as Ai Haibara from detective conan.






I'm slowly learning :lol

Yeah... one of your priorities would be to get a crockpot.

Don't eat monster meat or mushrooms. Throw them into the crockpot instead. As long as there is only 1 of either monster meat or durian, you won't get monster lagsana (you lose health with that).

Don't put sticks into the crockpot unless you wanna make fish sticks, in which case put 1 only.

Get a bee hive later on. Honey nuggets are a good way to recover hp as well as hunger.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Want to know how much you can vary the combat in Guacamelee?
Check out the video of someone doing the Combo Chicken Training sidequest:

It's almost like a hack and slash, but with luchador grappling!

 

[redfirm]

I havent played metro 1 and 2. Should i get metro last light? Can anybody recommend it?

 

[Garcia]

You're in for such a treat. Gorgeous visuals, fantastic sense of humor, exquisite gameplay, nods to other famous franchises, . . . A jewel of a game that everyone should at least try out.

It is a steal right now and shouldn't be missed.

 

[Wookieomg]

Same as arma 3. Round 40 or 50

They haven't said but it'll likely be 50/60

Cool, thanks for the info!

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Tempted to get the metro last light season pass, even though I thought last light was pretty average.

Power of steam sales :/

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

this is a PC thread and you post this? you do know that locked frame rates shouldn't be supported.

So chess locked at 30fps is unacceptable? In fact, you wouldn't want most games with unlocked fps cause it'll use up unnecessary amounts of resources running at 300fps.

I guess I need to explore more and find the necessary materials, I was still trying to get my hands on a gold nugget for the science machine thingy

 

[Oreoleo]

The DLC is almost unanimously underwhelming, and this is coming for someone who likes the Metro series A LOT. The Faction Pack is the one to get solely for the Library level.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Alright, i'm going to bed soon, so give me some quick input so i can decide on whether to take the plunge on Castle Storm or not. It looks cool, but that doesn't necessarily mean it actually plays well

 

[SumGamer]

Grabbed Insurgency from the last Flash sales and the game is tight. Loving it.

People play that? It's the one based on the source mod right? I figured it would be dead.

I hereby declare myself the Master of Soups.

CSD is so goooood !

 

[Vyer]

Picked up Guacamelee, so I'm looking forward to playing it with all these positive impressions.


Also playing the new Tomb Raider for the first time and I'm enjoying it quite a bit.

 

[mileS]

I'm upset I missed the sale for Cook, Serve, Delicious! Hopefully it comes back around.

 

[Jables Swan]

Guacamelee ==>> Holy shit what an amazing game.

That's what I was afraid of... damn with those expired licences!!!

But as you said, Spiderman Shattered Dimensions maybe could see the light since Acti owns the licence, a little possibility but it's there... it's just a matter of time and see if they release it! I hope they release it, it's a good Spiderman game!

[Jawbreaker]

Yeah, how good is it. At that price it is a steal too.

I got this as well. Really looking forward to starting it.

 

[bender]

Bought Morrowind GOTY. Installed the Morrowind Overhaul 3 mod. Doesn't look half bad. Played Oblivion and Skyrim, but never got around to playing this.

Pretty excited.

Curious for impressions after you play it. It was my first TES and the only one I've enjoyed and stuck with.

 

[Jawbreaker]

I guess people who love Super Hexagon play it with a touchpad? I've played it on PC with a keyboard and the game is so clunky and unintuitive to control and play. I can see the appeal but I really don't like it since most of the time it seems the game is screwing me over with its controls. I'd like it a whole lot more if it was mouse driven.

I was worried about getting vertigo or some shit after watching videos of it, but at what, 50 cents? I couldn't pass up the impulse buy. I haven't tried it yet, but hell, that pretty much goes for over half of my Steam list.

 

[Uraizen]

Whoever recommended Rain Blood Chronicles: Mirage, thank you. This game is awesome if you have even a modicum of interest in action games.

 

[Artofwar420]

GOT THAT GUAC. Seems too awesome to pass up.

Still thinking about Don't Starve. Who would recommend it?

I'm glad I bit on Prison Architect, super fun stuff.

Natural Selection 2. Hehehe..

Do you have a PS4? If so, it'll be free for PS+ members in January if you want to try it out. I decided to hold out on getting it through Steam because of this.

 

[toddhunter]

I will for sure. You can effortlessly get 15-20+ hours out of it and that is even before you dive into the steam workshop.

If you have any interest in a survival/rogue game then pick it up.

 

[Garcia]

For those of you who didn't know: Guacamelee is an amazing Metroidvania game .

You will definitely like it!

Just a reminder: It's still time to enter my Dark Souls giveaway.
Good luck!

Thank you for Cities in Motion 2 but it seems like Modbot messed up as it gave me the same MB- code that I pm'd to it and not the actual game key.

SephirotRK, thank you for Orcs Must die! 2 Complete. You guys are amazing.
