So I stupidly bought Might and Magic X thinking I could play it on steam but its Uplay.

I have a weird issue though. When I click on it, it brings me to Uplay and asks for an activation code that I never received, or noticed I received. My steam code doesn't work there,.

Anyone had any similar experiences?

Should be a CD key link when you look at the game in the library. Have to do it with a lot of Ubi stuff.

I seriously hope that people don't vote for Orion Prelude to get a $0.25 discount over IL-2 Sturmovik.

I'm sorry.

Different game. Endless Dungeon is a 4X, Dungeon of the Endless is dungeon defense.

edit: oh, it's in the same franchise. Neat.

Wait, what? There's no such thing as Endless Dungeon, is there (oh how I want a dungeon 4x game).

You're thinking of Endless Legend?

QUESTION --

So all this Tabletop talk -- I don't know anyone in 'real life' to play board games with... is there a decent online presence for all the 'popular' games on it? Or are there so many games that trying to find a game of XYZ borders on impossible unless you set it up via, say, gaf?

Yeah I pretty much spent a good 1 hour playing each game I bought this sale. Including Rise of Nations (the nostalgia is REAL), Ruse, and Prison Architect (still trying to figure stuff out). Gotta get to Stronghold Crusaders HD soon though.

I skipped out on EU4 because I won't even play it to its full extent. Maybe some day. It goes on sale a lot anyway.

Trails in the Sky is on sale though but I won't play it now. I have the patience to wait.

How much do you think USFIV will go for if it hits a daily/flash?

EDIT: nevermind apparently I always owned EU4 but never got to it. Just the 'Extreme Edition' though. This is what happens when you've seen every Steam sale ever

Lost Planet 3 is a decent 3rd Person Shooter with great characters
While the gameplay isn't anything amazing, it gets the job done but the characters and voice acting is top notch.

Buy Trails in the Sky. I just beat it a few days ago and it is awesome.
Click to expand...

Just purchased it. No idea when I'll get to it but I'm doing everything I can to help promote JRPG and Japanese games in generals sales on PC. The more support we get the better and it also looked nice from what I saw.

Is it a stand alone game or do I need to know any prior story from possible previous games? I know nothing about this game / franchise

One caveat for Trails in the Sky, the beginning is a little slow, but persevere, its worth it

Its the first in a series, the second of which finishes the storyline started in the first game and will finally (five years some of us have been waiting ;) ) be out next year in English

How many hours is it? Any re-playability?
Click to expand...

Probably 35-40 for the main storyline, 50ish if you do anything, not particularly replayable

Finished To The Moon recently and really enjoyed the story to the point where I am now looking for something that can give me the same kind of feels.

Anybody have any recommendations for some games with some good character moments? Currently looking at picking up Valiant Hearts (hopefully it goes up as a daily, I realized I just missed the flash deal) and The Walking Dead Season 2. I don't really care about how cheesy a game's story is, I can usually overlook that.

Also, how much of an impact do the season one choices have on season 2? My original save file is on the Xbox 360, but I would much rather play on PC and save money in the process if the choices ultimately have very little impact further than the first or second episode.

Lost Planet 3 is indeed really cool.
Story and voice-acting are particularly good, and the atmosphere is fantastic.

Capcom sucks for not bothering to remove GFWL from Lost Planet 2 and Colonies.

They prob. might but not any time soon, I think SFxT was getting GFWL live removed and migrating to Steamworks, so maybe we will see those games have gfwl removed from them.

How's Lost Planet 3? And DLC?

Read my posts above/in the previous page
The DLC is multiplayer stuff so you don't really need it.

The gameplay is serviceable, it is nothing amazing, and don't expect Vanquish here, but far as Third Person Shooters go it is OK.
It is the characters, story and setting that stand out. I personally recommend it as I had a blast playing it on PS3.
