Took me about 3-4 hours to beat Gat out of Hell.
Was ok nothing special and sure as hell isn't worth the 20 bucks they are asking for.
Even though they label it as a expansion it's nothing more than a stand alone DLC you would have seen on one of the other titles really. I can't imagine paying more than 10 for this. Unless you really like Saints Row and getting all the achievements.

So, it seems that the cart glitch has been effectively fixed all together. (see reddit discussion )
So the loophole of buying 4packs as gifts and getting different subids is closed. One more nail in trading's coffin.

Haha. Just came on my laptop and it seems Modbot hasn't chosen a winner yet.
Looks like I didn't have to fight you after all, still no winner chosen.

Wow, does that 3-4 hours include all side missions?
one does not simply plays mountain, one has to climb the mountain.

The game is basically nothing but side missions.
I got all the powers (Which I think you have to do) and only did 3 of the loyalty missions since they don't seem to affect anything. I could have beaten it faster if I realized that only red marked items progress the bar.

Thanks! That's Cassandra Lee Morris. We initially went out to her because of her work as Edea in Bravely Default. = D
Steam is discouraging preorders these days. Alas. = D But thank you!

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

I might start curating whimsy games on Steam. There aren't enough.
Is this something other people are doing already? Unsure whether to bother. It's not like Steam is over run with games like that anyway.

No one asked about Huniepop dude
Answer however you want....you're still getting mobile games
I mean this in the utmost heterosexual way. You're a pretty good looking man.
Now I wonder what JaseC, zkylon, Turf, etc looks like.

Ever played the Pokemon TCG for the Gameboy ? Now, that one was awesome.
It also starred this strange dude
May I ask why you're so curious? If any thing I'd be interested in their voice, looks never did much for me.
In fact I prefer not to know (not that you guys hurt the eyesight).

I love Pokemon but never got into playing TCG, I did collect the first few series of cards fully just in the 'collecting them' sense though. Even had a Charizard! :O
Visualante2

I've been thinking of collecting the last few cards from my collection and selling it as complete. It probably won't come close to the money invested in buying packs. But at least I won't be reminded of all the money wasted.
So many crappy energy cards.

Dr. Dogg almost looks like my cousin Marcio with that goatee.
And done. PC is my only platform atm so it was quick to complete.

It's just I've talked to them for so long. Whenever I picture them. It's always their avatar. So I guess it would be fun to know what they look like.
But then again, I guess you're right. sometimes it's better not to know. Whenever I think of JaseC, I see Saoirse. So that's pretty good. Knowing what JaseC look like would probably ruin that illusion.

Shame, because Dominion and Scrolls alone is worth it. Dominion is replayable as hell.

I thought this was pretty interesting to know about HuniePop, sorry if it's been posted.
https://twitter.com/HuniePop/status/557692823450177536Everything about HP, including the patch, has been explicitly approved by Valve. Literally a quote from my contact:

Oh. I see. So no problem for me to just buy it for myself here, right?
At least they changed my Steam Wallet currency so next time there is such a mistake, I can help out finally.
Sounds good. I think every All Ages version should get an uncensored patch.

Said I didn't play mobile and it kicked me out.
I think I finished HuniePop now. Got all CGs from all twelve girls. Still got no ending scene or something. Collecting all items for all girls sounds like a pain with no payoff, so I think I don't want to do that.
I love Vita-chan
Huh. I was wondering why the dev was so brazen as to post the uncensored patch right on the Steam discussion page, and pin it to the top. I guess that answers it.
If that's the way Valve is handling this though, I really have to wonder why they wouldn't just sell the game uncensored in the first place. Seems like a meaningless distinction between selling an Adults Only game, and selling a game that can be effortlessly turned into an adults only game and posting the instructions to do so 2 clicks away from the storefront.
Waaaaaaaaay too early to say what the end result will be. It took GG over a month to revoke the Warlock II keys. I'm glad they got keys out, but that could well have just been the automated system taking hold.
If it takes concerted effort to enable by following an off of Steam process, there's no way anyone could claim that Steam was at fault if someone plays the game that way. In the wake of Hot Coffee and the like, that's what matters to these companies, if they can be held responsible.
Huh, interesting. If Steam handles it this way, future Visual Novels could just do what HuniePop did. I would actually be ok with this weird, but working solution.
I don't know how I am somehow surprised that the Huniepop banter is still in full swing over here
That is impressive. Lucky US folk

I feel you, I work on a Tech Support and the amount of dumb things that I heard from some clients is unbelievable.
I should tweet Devolver to get this game on Steam
It could be awesome to get this game on PC
Bundlestars has Silence Of The Sleep which is something new and franchise game. Buy that!
In other news, I started playing Resident Evil, got a nice skin in CS:GO and finally got this:
and work was nice so all in all it was a okay day
So business as usual for any software developer. Maybe change the name to Enchanced Yamz
Congrats!
We need more fishing games!
Did the original version even got a Steam release back in the day?
Citizens of Earth is out and is 20% off for the first week.

And if you were waiting on Apotheon:
Vermeulen [developer] Jan 19 @ 4:17pm
Sorry but I still can't give a release date yet! Waiting on word from Sony on exactly when we can announce.
Nice, this game looks so good.
Full swing is a bit much I think. I mean, even if a game has it's own OT we talk about it and aspects here, like the RE:Remaster.I don't know how I am somehow surprised that the Huniepop banter is still in full swing over here

I assume there are some legal reasons for that.
Lets assume a publisher releases a VN on Steam that has some loli-content or some 38year old woman, who looks like 14.
If Valve allows that directly, maybe they are at fault when some legal problems arise.
If the dev does it though just through Steam as a communication tool, maybe the dev/publisher is at fault.
I'm not sure how this in any way prevents a Hot Coffee situation. The game was sold with explicit content contained in the game code, but is gated off. The "patch" to get the uncensored version is literally creating a dummy file with a specific name and putting it in the game directory. That's 100 times easier to do than modding an Xbox to access content that was never supposed to be seen.

Played almost an hour of Citizen of Earth, and it's good. Nice combat (easy to understand, but looks like it will take time to master, specially with each follower being só different), good jokes. And there are A LOT of secundary quests!
Too bad The game crashed twiced, but I heard there's a fix incoming.

I just mean since Hot Coffee, everyone has been in "CYA" mode. So long as it requires this patch, Steam can blame the developer for anything inappropriate, whereas if it was official DLC on the store, they would have a certain degree of culpability.
Thank you anon =)

I've been wanting to give someone this but I keep forgetting...
I have a 50% off coupon for Lichdom: Battlemage. I already have the game so if anyone wants the coupon just say so. I don't need anything back in return...just trying to get it to someone that can use it.

So you're like next to your baby's head coming out and still post on Gaf?
I suppose as a CYA move it makes sense to a point. It just seems like if that was there goal, they would be doing a better job of actually covering themselves. Like making sure the explicit content had to be patched IN rather than the censoring patched out, and preventing the developer from advertising the patch on the Steam discussion boards. That way if a controversy did happen, Valve would have plausible deniability. I feel like the way they did it, they could still catch some blowback for not "doing enough" if another scandal happened.
I'm not complaining or anything, it's just an odd move.

I dont really think a scandal would happen with niché VN games or VN-like games. I mean GTA got flak because of that because it is huge and every mom and dad even knows what it is.
You never know here D;
Would you rather look at some baby than SteamGAF. Babies happen all the time, but if you miss a price mistake it's lost forever.
Babies are the ultimate price mistake.
