That will be a dark day indeed. It is not fun as it is, some of the medium-sized markups.

Got through the first major choice in Life is Strange and stopped once it saved. Really interesting so far. It nails that "90's teen drama" feel so far.

so i saw life is strange for the first time, the launch trailer. lmfaoo that shit looks so cheesy that I want it. i was actually laughing when that song started to play. nah but it looks pretty interesting. I'll keep it in mind when the game is done.

$13.50 for Life is Strange on GMG, that's almost too good to pass up.
Wow..the Anime thirst is real.
Japanese devs who don't release their games on PC are basically just losing money at this point. Steam is home of the JRPG. Gaben is saving Japan

JRPGs are welcome with open arms on Steam nowadays. I'm personally loving all this variety, and hope more titles from the genre(Tales, DQ, etc) get brought over.

So I've already hit a point where I'm unable to progress in Neptunia.
I get hit with a crash every time I beat the first boss.

yeah nothing supernatural in veronica mars
except for that time that a dead girl's ghost saved her best friend from being in a fatal bus crash
no need to get caught up on the details :>
So, just finished the first episode of Life is Strange. Was interesting, love the art style and music. Took me about 2hours, and that's with examining pretty much everything. I missed some of the optional photos though, I guess they were hidden really well.
I had the audio cut out twice throughout the episode, besides that no issues.

Tier 2 has the two best game out of the bundle, that's funny.

Just got a 60% off Fable Anniversary coupon that's good until tomorrow at 8AM Pacific... err, OK. Why would anyone generate a 12 hour coupon?

Picked up a 970... Yeah yeah, even with the issues, it's the best card I can get right now.
Everything looks so good. So far I've only played Ground Zeroes and Dark Souls, but it's all so sexy. At this point, my (first) gaming PC is practically finished. Still need to pick up an HDD that's bigger than the one I cannibalized, and an optical drive (yes, I still dig physical media). But the meat of the machine is mine now. #feelsgood
Now my problem is, since I can actually run most stuff now, I desperately want to get my hands on the more recent games. Can't wait to pick up Shadows of Mordor and Wolfenstein.
Anyways, you lose Junior status when you hit 300 posts, right? I'm almost there, so to celebrate cool stuff happening... Have some goodies.

Maybe Life is Strange really is trying to imitate Blue is the Warmest Color, has school scenes that set up the character's interests

They did put it back up for release, that tells me they at least thought they'd deliver.... Maybe?

I'm playing Ys: Oath in Felghana on Inferno mode. It's actually a lot easier than I thought it would be. The only problem it has is that you are absolutely forced to grind, otherwise mob enemies will oneshot you... Sometimes they're harder than the bosses, even. The difference between nightmare and inferno bosses is that you'd only be able to take two hits to die instead of the usual 3-4 unless you grind some more (e.g. if you fought a boss at level 16 before, you should be at level 17-18 instead).
Fucking Death Faleon though. This is the first time I've really gotten stuck on Inferno. He was the fucking worst even on Very Easy mode.

Get someone from the US to buy it for you.
Why?
Now Idea Factory will bring out all of its crappy titles to Steam.
Then people will buy them, try to play them and then figure out jRPGs are no fun.
And then they won't buy another one ever, even if Atlus, Gust or tri-Ace finally release something.
You take my word for it, Nep Nep just killed potential Resonance of Fate, Persona or Atelier Steam ports...
Arthea, is Nep Nep any good? Thinking about buying it. Honest opinion would be appreciated.
How does that work? Transferring payment via PayPal while they send you the game as a gift?

Then I would say people would have already gotten turned off by that. I enjoyed it after getting into it, but as a JRPG/SRPG it wasnt really good. Agarest Zero was better, but it still had a lot of odd design choices.
I still dont know how I could finish Agarest Zero without even having the overpowered DLC weapons (that get nerfed in the second generation...)

Game is so beautiful I couldnt stop taking pics every chance I had. Might play with subs off just to get some other moments I didnt caught because of the subs.

Finished Duke Nukem Forever tonight. I didn't think it was as bad as everyone says it was. It is by no means great, but I found some of the sections to be enjoyable. I found the puzzles and the shrinking sections to be quite enjoyable. The combat I could do without, though.

Great shots man. I'm probably about halfway through it myself and really enjoying it so far.

I would still say you can really notice which of the sections were, at least from the groundwork, made in the late 90s/early 00s and which ones were added at a later date.
If it gets worse, Valve will just add Canada to the ACRTAG group.
The Canadian Dollar won't go into a deep free fall like the Ruble. Projections have it dropping to mid to lower end of seventy cents at worst.

It definitely feels disjointed, and rushed (lol).
