I feel I would just be horrible at a game about cooking :(.

Gonna be picking up Volgarr though, for 3.99 it looks to be a pretty decent old school action platformer. Seems hard as hell though.

C,S,D! isn't so much about actually cooking as it is about reflexes and thinking fast. You'll be fine, buy it.

Where do you upload them :eek:

Sorry for slow response! I'll be uploading it to my PC channel that I just started up again and should be up tomorrow. Really not sure what we're doing with the channel yet but it looks like it's gonna mainly be FF14 and CS:GO. Might do some play throughs with another for Outlast and Alien Isolation; I'd play 15 minutes then she would play 15 minutes for the next video.

There's currently one CS:GO GAF video I uploaded on the channel but was just a test the other day >_> I fixed most of the problems I had with it. I do miss push-to-talk though. Anyway, the Inferno game we had was really good so that'll be up later in the day.

I think he just puts them on Youtube. He links them here and on Steam though. SSD would be sick for this.

I need to record our CS matches, but I have my SSD set to the scratch drive for Shadowplay, which doesn't have enough space for a 40+ minute long recording, and I don't trust saving it to the same drive as I play from. I'll see how it does on the HDD tomorrow or something; It might not be bad at all.

Yup. My hard drive is dying so I get some lock ups here and there :/ Add that with shadowplay and I better hope I don't freeze in the middle of a fight.

ha I need more of that casual CS:GO time after that soul crushing defeat today in comp. I must get better! I actually got some deagle kills today :D

Haha we did awesome the first two games at least :)

Ace Combat dropped from 29.99€ to 19.99€
Ass Creed 4 dropped from 49.99€ to 29.99€

good news for future sales

Deadfall Adventures is still 39.99€ (lol)

Don't tell me what to buy!

Also I'll write something up tomorrow, but Teslagrad is really good. Buy it people! and yes I just told people what to buy.

Edit: Dammit now I'm considering it lol

Our comeback in that second round after halftime was great. We lost like 4 rounds in a row when we started as CT
 
Right I meant push-to-mute that they took out >_<
I think I'm gonna look into a software-based mic mute key or something. Because I can't get OBS to work properly the way I want it to, and PTT is pretty dumb for using on Twitch.

EDIT: IF I HAVE TO VERIFY MY SAME BROWSER FOR HUMBLE ONE MORE TIME, I SWEAR TO GOD

Is Starbound better than Terraria? I need something in that genre. Kinda curious about Starbound.

edited: I haven't picked Starbound yet.

GAF factor aside, CSD is a truly amazing game, one of my all time favorite in my Steam library.

BUT please don't buy it (or better: buy it but don't play it!) because I don't want to be kicked out the first page of the combo leaderboard. Thank you.
don't tempt me, dear Copons, just don't

Sounds like Hugstable isn't aware of the GAF factor either. Any true believer buys it on principle.

It's very similar mechanics-wise, with some improvements. The scope is also larger overall. Small problem being that the game is still super super early access and I believe they are behind schedule on updates. I don't think there's a risk of it not being finished but it isn't as far along as it should be.

If you asked a while ago maybe. I'm kinda done with CS for tonight, sorry.

Turn down the framerate to 30 and lower the bitrate to about 20-25. I get about 1.3gb for a 8 minutes 60 fps clip.

You'll have, every time you buy something from Humble, just accept it now and be done with it.

Ohhh thanks :) look interesting.

So.. I don't really have anything on my wish list. Despite working at GameStop. I only know the AAA titles.

So if you guys know of any upcoming games or games that are already out. That are either along the line of JRPG, RPG, indie adventure, mystery, crime solving and games with a great story that you would recommend. Please pm me on GAF with the link or Steam :)

I don't know that many or what is good or not that I should play. Since I only joined steam fairly recent.

Thank you.

Edit: really like games like Valiant Hearts, Wolf Among Us, Blackwell series, Terraria, etc. If you look at my library. You kinda see the types of games I like :) thanks once again.

It's the secret theme of the bundle! Edge of Space, Darkout and Windforge are also Terraria-alikes.

Edge of Space is by some people from the Terraria team (and Starbound is by the other people in the team).

Ohhh thanks :) look interesting.
Don't forget to pull the Paranautical Activity slider down to 0 if you buy the bundle!

I haven't played it for a couple months but imo it was on a path to being better than terraria. I really need to revisit the game. It has a couple interesting things going for it that Terraria doesn't, like different planet types and npc villages. But last I played the villages didn't have much other than like npcs that don't do anything and maybe 1 shop that doesn't sell much.

It is very much a WIP (based on the last time I played which admittedly is like 6+ months ago.

FML I went to check and I'm now 10th which means I'm the last one of the first page of the Highest Combo Extreme Difficulty, with only 1 point more than the 11th position (and like 100 less than the 1st one who's a cheater FOR SURE also [BLINKINGTEXT]WARNING CAERITH IS A CHEATER TOO[/BLINKINGTEXT]).

So yeah, do not play CSD, or if you REALLY want to play it, do not do an extreme difficulty combo equal or higher than 283. THANKS.

I wouldn't say Windforge is like terraria... then again maybe I imagine what this game is wrongly, need to play some. Too many games too little time, as always.

Just like Steam would, yes. You don't get "dupe"/gift copies from Steam or Humble Bundle if you already own the game you're redeeming.

I really want a team-based competitive Iron Chef game, complete with generated cornball commentary as the teams work the secret ingredient for the match. Let's make it happen, chubigans.

For great story and mystery, be sure to pick the Cat Lady.

for upcoming JRPGs, wait for Trails in the Sky with us, the more the merrier.

As for adventure games, there are so many, so many, I still can't quite believe scope of revival of this genre.

but I could still click the "create gift link" tho (and did)?

well Ill try it, if it dont work, dems the breaks!

No, it does not. Steam will just say you already own the game but the key is usable. This applies to digital game keys in general.

ah good, its just Secks being wrong as usual then, gotcha

He's actually partially right after reading another reply. I was thinking in the perspective of the key being tied to one game. But! If the key is a bundle and contains multiple games, it will register all the copies regardless of whether or not you own one of the games in the bundle already.
 
I think this is an extra, but I'm not sure. Dig in if you feel like finding out.

I just tested it, it says "Your Steam account already owns this game" if you try to redeem something you own. Refresh the page and it reverts to being completely unredeemed. The gift link stays regardless.

This is also true, I had it happen with a couple. I guess that's exactly why Humble does it. Can't let people share with friends when said friends could spend more money!
