I still have all more or less important and personal emails I received in the last 10+ years, it's not like they take a lot of space (and are synced to my IMAP email account), I just use the archive function for all stuff that I don't delete...

I swear, the gods hate me. Installed Abyss Odyssey, bought Strider, about to buy Tomb Raider. Which one should I boot up first? None, there's a really nasty storm outside now and I need to shut down.

But for real, the original UFO (X-Com just sounds wrong to my European ears :p) is not that complicated, clunky by today standards but not hard to understand...

But yeah, Xenonauts loks like a good, more modern alternative.

And btw, I really like the new XCOM, the old one is just such a great classic

Maybe I'm just getting old...

It's damned complicated and maybe the least intuitive game I have ever played. There's so much that you can easily screw up and not know for hours, you can toss pretty much your entire campaign down the drain while still learning what's going on.

I always used a "Game Editor", can't remember the name, that let you edit the savegames. Adding funds, changing the hangar layouts, free Laser Rifles and so on... good times :)

Oh, sure, if you play like that it's not complicated!

I think the old system is:
- +1 if you buy DLC
- Otherwise 0
- Doesn't show up in library unless installed

While the new system is:
- +1 if you add
- Shows up in library unless you remove it from your account page.

I'm not at home so I don't have client access, but in my web library, Unturned shows up despite the fact that I haven't and probably won't install it.
Click to expand...

Previous system:
- Sub 0: No +1s, but games are tethered to your library as paid games are if you own DLC for them
- Free licence system: Functionally identical to the paid licence system (+1s and the games remain in your library even when uninstalled regardless of DLC)

Current system (new sub type):
- +1s across the board, however unless DLC is owned the games are not tethered to your library, which is rather awkward and something I hope Valve fixes

I was gonna give away all the XCOM games but since everyone else is doing it too I guess I'll just redeem them to add to my games number.

Dj CUTMAN posted a pretty nice Shovel Knight remix. I like it.

No one has a strong opinion. Like 10 different people have posted about Lifeless Planet, most to say it's alright but not amazing. Only you can decide if it's worth spending your money on stuff or not. Edge of Space is $5.84 on Steam right now, and I'd guess that if you wanted these three games for less than $10 by the end of the year you could get them that cheap if you wait. It's two Terraria style games and one atmospheric gameplay-light adventure. Are those types of games you like?

I couldn't get out of the drop pod in Signs of Life and therefore the game is stupid.

Hrmm...I might have to bite on Risk of Rain for $3.29 on the humble store.

I should be able to get a couple hours of fun out of that one, right? Is it recommended to stick to multiplayer?
Click to expand...
You'll get 20+ hours out of it and I recommend singleplayer. The challenge is great and once you learn all the moves for a character, the combat becomes somewhat sublime. Some of that is probably lost in fucking around with 3 friends.

A Reddit user posted Waykewl's press release. Basically, the small bit off more than it could chew and all assets related to the game have been handed over to Yogscast in hope that the project finds a new home. It's yet anther cautionary tale of why folks should only back projects that are being developed by people with relevant experience as opposed to getting caught up in something that seems cool.
Click to expand...

Aww....i see. That's unfortunate. I hope the Yogscast guys can get the game done eventually. I wanna play it.

Aooarently :/

I was excited for it because I thought it was going to be free. I believe I even found in the free to play category when I wishlisted it...

Absolute chicanery IMO

And apparently, from what I've read, the developers having been reviewing the game and (surprisingly) giving it the ol' thumbs up.

Wouldn't touch it with a bargepole, personally.
