All this talk of steam categories makes me wonder if anyone is actually up to the challenge of organizing their collection High Fidelity style:

Well crap, I'm going to lose then. You've got way more karma in the bank then I do.

Get your dirty hands off my Strider. It's mine

Yeah, no way Crom smiles on me for this one.

 

[LuffyZoro]

The Steam version is drm free.

Thank you.

[Strider]

First thing I tried this morning for the sound issue I was having worked Good start to the day.

 

[Lain]

you could contact developer, it does happen, rarely but happens, I got a duplicate key once too.

I replayed to the email, hopefully they can fix that. I'd like to try it out, as I think the first part of the translation should have gone in on the 20th of June or something.

So are Crysis 1 and 2 good games or just pretty games?

Bad games, like Crysis 3

Crawl is coming to Early Access July 17th
Announcement trailer

TIGForum Devlog if you want to read about the game's development: http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=35191.0

Multiplayer only? Looking at the forum they don't have a single-player mode implemented.

Like Derp, I'm still waiting on Hyper Light Drifter, that game looks great.

There's haters for Strider? I mean yeah it doesn't play the Arcade classic Strider, but it's still a pretty fun game in its own right (then again I have a weakness for decent Metroidvanias)

 

[SparkTR]

Crysis 1 is a fantastic game for roughly the first half, then it gets mediocre. Crysis 2 is just bad all the way through.

 

[iosefe]

Even better, post it in 6-7 hours when most of the North and South America side of Steamgaf is awake. No one will know since most people don't check the older posts in the thread.

I reject this remark and shall quote it to prove you wrong.

Just discovered that I'd won Sub Zero's earlier giveaway of Rome 2, so thanks for that mate, been wanting that for a while. I'll see about finding something to spread the joy later.

Sure is, including corrisivefrost and myself.

Only corrosivefrost seems to hate it and he's doing his best to turn people off the game everytime it's brought up. Not that his opinion matters at all, as his favorite game is Aliens Colonial Marines

Hope you enjoy it. I was expecting more people to enter for it, but apparently the negative reviews on the Steam page made them think that it's a bad and unplayable game when that's not the case. Imo it's a few patches and probably an expansion pack away from being one of the best TW titles

Ordered Prey!

And seems like my trader will likely accept my 60 key offer for Mafia, but not sure yet.

Thanks Arnie but KiD is good enough for me.

I may be late to the party, but the 'loading bar' for Enhanced Steam is a beautiful feature. JShacks continues to deliver.

And don't forget the screenshot feature (which allows you to browse the game's screenshots in the store page much better).

[OldAsUrSock]

man those Cyber Connect guys really know how to make a game look like an anime dont they? good lord these UNS games look amazing

I need to win the lottery so I can buy Cyber Connect and make them work on a One Piece game

Will this one be 60fps?

 

[freshVeggie]

Don't listen to ningen. Crysis 1 is one of the best fps ever made. Even if the graphics were to be bad, the gameplay is very well. Visual are just bonus.
The two successors are not very good though, since they abandoned what made Crysis 1 great.
Get Crysis 1 maximum at least. Make no mistake, you will enjoy it, if you have any faint interest in the fps-genre.

Naruto looks fine /shrug

Killer is Dead's art style is really...something isnt it?

 

[pahamrick]

Just finished The Wolf Among Us episode 1, and wow it is so good. I was going back and forth about getting this during the summer sale. Finally I just decided to get it when I saw someone offering it for 3 keys.

So, so worth it. Now I'm trying to decide if I want to start over on a new save and pick different choices, or move on to episode 2.

 

[MadGear]

Well when i asked why he dislikes the game he gave me a bulleted list and if the things listed there are actually true, i can totally believe why someone would not like this game.
Tastes just differ, i.e. people here don't seem to like Crysis 1 and 2 at all, but personally i really enjoyed Crysis 1 (haven't played in in years though) and also wasn't that bored by Crysis 2 either. Then again people really liked Far Cry 1 (at least back then) which i personally didn't like at all

 

[Pachimari]

lol

Why this reaction? I thought SteamGAF were a friendly bunch.

Haha, I know it's a dangerous path, but Mafia is THE game I need on Steam.

I'll have to wait until the end of episode 5, but so far I prefer it to the Walking Dead Season One, at least.

Also, thanks for the feedback. It seems like the consensus is that Crysis is good, but 2 isn't worth it.

Dev said there will be bots, so you can play solo, but the best experience is obviously with other players

For what it's worth, a friend gifted me a copy of Strider on release and I loved it enough that I'd have paid full price for it if I had it. So yeah, if you think you'd like it I say give it a go.

Here you go!

Hey I said I can't sleep very long, not that I want to fall into a vegetative state On a serious note, I never watched nor read anything Twilight related so I shouldn't bash it just based on public opinion D:

This changes everything.... thanks!

I've got Walking Dead Season One + 400 days sitting in my back log, I should probably get around to finishing it. I played episode 1 shortly after release at a friend's place on the 360, and really liked it but I haven't really felt the urge to go through the whole season yet. I might wait until I can grab season 2 and just binge the whole two seasons in one go. I really have to be in the mood for zombie games, and I just haven't been lately.

But just judging episode 1 vs episode 1, TWAU beats TWDS1 hands down.

why is it that when you look for custom icons you find stuff like this

like what do people actually do with them

are there really people out there that do this just for "general library purposes" or something cause jesus christ

the only thing I find funnier is the notepad file these are probably attached to

Can you imagine Nintendo expanding to PC? I'd be apocalypse for my wallet.

No spoilers, but The Walking Dead has a really strong final episode, so TWAU will have to do a lot to leave the same impact.

Most people would consider spending that amount of coin on a single game to be complete lunacy.

Would be worse than activision, they would never do any sales.

Oh man. Well, I guess I'll hit up TWD after I episode 5 of TWAU and see which I like better overall.

They could also be launching those games in Steam, then playing their WiiU separately. Let's their friends know what they are playing.

Sigh double

Definitely are a friendly bunch, but within reason.

If you say something good about a bad game, you will most likely be called out on it in the discussion. If you start spending ludicrous amounts of money on games removed from Steam we may try to talk you down from the ledge.

 

[Casimir]

That's nice then. Still, the interface is pretty bad in this game.

Okay. I'll take your word for it, you have articulated so many issues.

I didn't say it had to be a legionnaire, it's just that random legionnaires are in fact willing to repair your equipment. Which is not particularly logical. And nobody told me that, I discovered this exciting fact on my own.

So you made a poorly constructed statement. *shrug* Happens. So with all the options for repairing your gear, how is D:OS full of issues relating to repairing equipment?

I'm sorry that you feel the need to have the game hold your hand constantly. The next Dragon Age is admittedly looking pretty slick. Considering Bioware's approach to player agency, it might be more suited to your play style.

I do feel the whole durability system is redundant in this game, as well as weight. With the amount of stuff you have to sort as it is, it's not exactly nice to introduce the concept of overencumbrance into the game.

The game is pretty good, by the way, although maybe a bit simplistic with its quests.

Encumbrance, or carry limits, have been a part of cRPG's (and pretty much all other types of RPGs) for awhile. I don't know why you have an expectation of anything different. That's like me playing a MMORPG and complaining that it's not nice that I see other players in the world when soloing. You can teleport back to towns and areas including your homestead* via predetermined way points; additionally in the first act, you will gain the ability to set your own custom teleport points. There is also a talent that increases your carrying capacity. On top of that, you can add up to four members to your party, each with the ability to carry items.

It might be superfluous, I wouldn't be the person to ask. You can add talents that reduce equipment degradation if it's annoying. I wouldn't really be an expert on Melee degradation as I tend to use Mages backed up by a Ranger. The magic doesn't degrade equipment and whenever I have to repair my bow (I use the talent), it's only a small pittance due to no significant change.

Name some games with "complex" quests, especially in the first/second act as you can't possibly have progressed that far into the game. Are you talking about the writing style? It's tone is whimsical, like pretty much all of Larian's output.

I was actually hoping the playstation collaboration with steam would lead to something larger like playstation games with their trophies and play time also appearing on the steam profile
