Mystery Game -- MB-0266C3DC625BE5F2 - Taken by Akuosa. 7 entrants total.

By the way, there were some errors processing your keys...
Error: The key you tried to add for Mystery Game #2 failed because it was already in ModBot from another user. If you wish to re-gift a key, please read the help thread under 'I accidentally took a key I didn't want' and follow those instructions before re-adding.

That FOV value is vertical FOV.
Code: 
Tables (V = vertical, H = horizontal, D = diagonal)

Rounded values only. I also went to the trouble of determining diagonals.

16:9 monitors (eg. 1920x1080, 1366x768, 2650x1440):

 40 V =  66 H =  73 D
 47 V =  75 H =  83 D
 52 V =  82 H =  90 D
 59 V =  90 H =  98 D
 73 V = 106 H = 113 D

16:10 monitors (eg. 1680x1050, 1920x1200):

 40 V =  60 H =  69 D
 51 V =  75 H =  84 D
 56 V =  81 H =  90 D
 64 V =  90 H =  99 D
 73 V = 100 H = 109 D

Well that makes more sense, I thought I was going crazy. Still, 75 is still waay too low for me considering the input smoothing and headpopping. Very rare games do this to me but SotC, Jazzpunk and AI are the notable exceptions.

a story about my uncle, please don't ask me to beat parts of the game without using the grappling hook. i know you're not forcing me to, but teasing me with it will make me want to try and then i'll get angry at you, and we were getting along so well!

so yea, pls no more first person platforming

tyty

edit: also pls remember my rumble settings, story about my uncle. you almost gave me a heart attack

Went through my bundle backlog and found the following shitty devs not honouring their key commitments (some ignoring all questions, some trying to pull the "you bought a key for my /regular/ edition. the /steam/ edition has over 45 seconds of new content so you're not entitled to a key for it."

The Body Changer Forum Thread 1 - Forum Thread 2 0 users playing now, 4 all-time peak
Hippocampal: The White Room Forum Thread 1 - Forum Thread 2 - 0 users playing now, 4 all-time peak 51% negative reviews PUBLISHED BY STRATEGY FIRST

A reminder that Steam keys cost nothing to create and distribute.

The responses from the dev of The Body Changer are kinda hilarious.

Is the general consensus that the Lost Crowns DLC for Dark Souls 2 is worth it, and is there anywhere you can find these cheaper than $24.99?

Well that I've heard many a time, which is funny because I used to tell people that Demon's Souls was so amazing because it had all of its content on one disc.

Ah well, it's a business.
Click to expand...

The DLC is pretty different from the main game because it mixes more Demon's Souls to the Dark Souls scheme than ever before IMO.

Also it doesn't feel like the content was cut from the main game, quite the opposite.

Uh-oh..

Also I just finished The Grand Budapest Hotel. What a wonderful, silly movie.

Saoirse is captivating as ever.

Moonrise is still my favourite Wes film but GBH is a close second (I'm excluding the Saoirse factor in the interest of fairness).

Saoirse was the least captivating character in the whole movie

Haha, well, I'd agree that she wasn't the most captivating. ;) The film most definitely belongs to Ralph Fiennes.

it's tier 1 without the CN, guess that chinese dude is pretty alright

Good stuff.

Sajjaja said:
So are there any other tiers in the GTA5 preorder or just San Andreas?
Click to expand...

Pre-ordering now gets you the most stuff, so what you see is it. My guess is:

Tier 2: Base pre-purchase offer, San Andreas (no bonus cash)
Tier 3: Base pre-purchase offer (no bonus case or San Andreas)

Wonder what the reason for that is, did a different group of people handle the DLC?
Click to expand...

most people like dks2 even tho they agree that it's worse than dks1, so i think it was just criticism being used well since the criticism was pretty healthy

we wanted better, more labyrinthic levels and less humanoid bosses. we got a bit of those two

yay

I'm enjoying DS2 so far, but yeah, it's not as much as a lived-in, atmospheric world as I would like.

As much as they have worked to balance certain gameplay systems and cut down on cheating, the meat of a good Souls game consists of those beautifully grimy worlds and creative boss battles.

Without those, you won't care what your badass character can do. It's less fun to do it.

I like SanctuaryRPG dev reasoning too: It's a whole new game! only looks the same, plays the same and it is called the same (><)

I'm waging my war against Strategy First, trying not to buy their games too, sometimes still buy by accident but not those I already bought and was denied steam keys.

edited: bundlestars are hyping something that is to happen today, probably some new bundle?

Humility goes a long way, especially in this case I'm thinking. I was able to get a key out of him by kindly asking and then linking off to my profile. Half his forum, on the other hand, were pitching fits and cursing out his mods.

Why I would ask for something I already bought? I understand what you are saying, and I probably would do just that if we were talking about the game I want to play right away badly, irony of this is that I never had to ask for such a game, I bought it, I got a key, I played it, no extra effort involved and why should it be? I don't curse the dev, I'm more amused if anything. ;)
I do have a grudge against Strategy First, tho, big one too.

Ah, nice. I wonder if Valve will ever allow publishers to set unlock times themselves.

wait... you mean you gonna play it? that can't be it... that's just wrong (><)
