Legend of Heroes is such a mess. Trails in the Sky 1 and 2 on PC, but Cold Steel 1 and 2 on PS3/Vita only with 3 scheduled for PS4?

It's hard to collect all of these things!

The latter two was developed for PS3 without existing PC version unlike the former two. I do hope that the sales of Falcom games on Steam is convincing enough for them to make a good port for PC version down the line.

Happy Birthdag. Also good choice on the gif.
Mila is the best.

Refunct was a great little game. Beat it at 30 minutes exactly but it's probably the most enjoyment I've gotten out of a Humble Bundle game.
 
Happy birthday to all (and anybody I may have missed in the past).

The more I use my new monitor the more I'm lead to believe 144hz is not a life changer. Gsync though, holy shit no more headaches from screen tearing! 50-60fps is suddenly very playable.

Is there any way to salvage existing files of a game when you forgot to back up the games appmanifest file? Without the manifest file Steam wastes a lot of time "discovering existing files" just to end up downloading everything from scratch anyway since it failed to rebuild the appmanifest. I know that for many games its possible to change the "BytesDownloaded" to match the "BytesToDownload" but for some reason this isn't working with RE HD. Any ideas?

It's not much of an answer, but you can ask someone to send you their manifest file.

Fired up Slime Rancher to give it a try... and then it was two hours later. Surprisingly compelling for such a basic premise. I'm such a sucker for simple reward cycles.

Another birthday? Just a yearly installment release that could have been a patch instead.

I'm only giving 20 well wishes though

The Slime Rancher gameplay loop sucked me in even while just watching JShack play it during his Extra Life stream - looks to be a charming little game indeed.

Well, bought the $1 tier of best of 2016 bundle and the $10 of the Overwhelmingly positive bundle, and going to do the year subscription for Monthly. Even though I did the 52 game challenge last year, I feel like I have my work cut out for me :p

52 Games a year challenge != Backlog challenge; the way I see it, the more games I add the easier it'll be to get through 52 games :D

Humble Bundle deals are too good to pass up, and the release schedule just keeps getting bigger and bigger. :(

Just finished the main story in Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition. I think I've found my new favorite open world game. Fun arcade-ish driving/racing, hand to hand that actually has some depth, an upgrade system with a nice sense of progression that integrated collectibles in an organic way, a story that really felt like a HK film, with some excellent dialogue and voice acting... Surprised more people weren't raving about it when it was released, because I think it's a real gem.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
$1? wow, instabought. now i wont mind if victor vran will turn out to be another van helsing kind of buggy mess. at this price its worth a shot. but pleasebeactualygood

It's actually really good. Not as in-depth as something like Path of Exile, obviously, but I was surprised at how tight and polished it was. I really liked that you could respec fairly effortlessly between the various builds. It's one of those games I think about going back to every so often.

It runs much better than VH and is probably more polished. Plus it's a bit like the further adventures of Geralt. The last boss was a bit of a pain though and the constant respawning got annoying after a while.

Ctrl + F Vazra: No results

Yeah (well, his name wasn't Vazra back then, but I digress), however that is what the tag is in reference to:

I said Christina Aguilera had an irresponsible vagina leak at Etta James funeral and the mods or mod liked it.

In hindsight I should have mentioned both the thread and the above post, haha.

Edit: And done.
 
I'm wondering what's going on with Berseria, roughly a week away from release and the store page still doesn't mention the preorder bonus, and looking on Steamdb the prepurchase sub only includes the game.

Not sure if it's been posted before but you can get Dead Rising 4 Deluxe for ~10€ from Windows Store Switzerland. Definitely a glitch.
I'm kinda considering it but the game is sorta meh and I swore not to spend another dime on their shit store until they fix it up proper... I think I'll skip.

Yesterday's addition to the Humble Overwhelmingly positive Bundle were somewhat disappointing, when the games that are featured from the start are much better than those.
I activated Refunct and played it since everyone says that this is a short game. It sure is a very short game, took me 24 minutes to finish and got all achievements. What's so fun jumping on pillars anyway? I don't understand how this game is so positive

Here is a free game for a lucky winner

Hopefully a good port. The last couple of japanese titles bought have been really bad in that regard.

Really? I hadn't had much of issues with the JP games I had been playing TBH. Akiba's Trip fan patch allows for downsampling which really helps with the AA and jaggies.

I am training a Dominatrix and giving her advice on how to berate her client.
