dat feeling of losing a Speedrunners first-come giveaway because you had to wait 30 seconds after sending a PM to enter a Speedrunners raffle giveaway that was posted seconds earlier.

I remember posting a comment and there was a first server right after it and I was sad and cried for a few days.

EDIT: No I did sent a PM to thank someone I think, hence the counter

Same thing happened to me, such is life under the oppressive rule of one post every 30 seconds.

does speedrunners have any sort of actual single player to it or is it just bot races and nothing else?

getting it for me and the bros to play occasionally but i just wanted to know if it was just a MP experience only.

there is a series of single player missions, than some mor VR missions, that are more challenging

don't blame modbot, blame whoever sets the PM throttle for GAF :(

but on the other hand, modbot 2 and 3 would not exist if not for the PM throttle.

I think I'll re-play the game, through Iorveth path this time as soon as CDPRed patches out that shitty dithering they use for shadows.

I'm definitely going to run through the game again prior to 3 coming out as I don't have my old saves from GOG any more. That and try and make a dent in the Steam Achievements this time. I don't know how many mods there are out for 2 but the first had loads. I know EatChildren always used to shamelessly recommend his grass billbording mod. Though shadow rending is a very complex beast unto itself.

I have no plans to play this one again any time soon, but will totally take it if everyone ignores it as a garbage dump. Certainly someone can use it more than me though, right?

Is there a save import feature or something?

I hate foils, they never sell

They do sell, you just have to price them horribly so somebody actually wants them. I don't really like foils because of that, and most foils I've gotten were for games where they weren't worth much. My last foil was from EYE: Divine Cybermancy and it fetched only 16 cents :(

Enhanced Steam doesn't let me remove games from my wishlist.

Steam is watching you. Gaben wants you to buy

god damn. I knew reviews were mixed, but whoa.

The Witcher 2 let you import save from the first witch carried over some choices as well as some specific items and monies. I can't remember if you had to get to a certain point as by the time I started and got stuck into 2 I had hardly made a dent into 1 and I've still only managed 4 hours of it now. I'm assuming 3 will let you do the same.

Happy birthday Turfster!
Wish for you to get your hands back to snuff and that someday you'll post about your game in this thread :)
I can't get over how creepy the faces look. The gameplay looks interesting though. A mix of third person cast spelling and first person, too.

Here's a webm and some pics from the match we had last night. Gonna upload the whole session to youtube, but encoding takes time. I'll post some more webms/images in the meantime.

Yeah that would be amazing if 3 lets me do the same. Makes me still want to finish the Roche playthrough so I can go into Witcher 3 with 2 different save files just incase the endings add any sort of difference to what happens in Witcher 3. My Witcher 3 sits in my favorites tab... just waiting to be released and played.

What tool are you using?

It's true that you can't rely 100% on the steam reviews, but it can give you a good impression if something is wrong with the game, or if there is something to consider before buying.
I played GWBW and so far the tendency of reviews is ok with me.

Hold up I just got a pop up notification on steam to tell my a game had finished downloading. When did that start? Really neat feature.

The PM throttle for GAF? Load/spam concerns as far as I can tell. There's also a post throttle and search throttle for users, right?

Yep 60 seconds on each. Hahaha has it been that long now since you've had to deal with those wait timer messages?

As I said above I can't really talk about the first Witcher due to not getting that far in but I can see there's a fair bit of potential for diverging paths or 'oh hey look we noticed you did this in our previous game here's a easter egg' type moments like Mass Effect did. Plus with the 7 month wait to The Wild Hunt it gives us all plenty of time to run through Assassin of Kings again.

Oh god all those pictures are getting me to want to actually play L4D2 and get good at it. I love these workshop mods and how easy they make it to change up the game. Just seeing models like Joel and Elizabeth in there is amazing, they look straight out of their own games!

They confirmed in a recent interview that W3 will indeed allow you to import W2 saves on PC.
 
I feel real sorry for folks who waited a couple of months for Episode 4 of TWAU and then it was like 45 minutes long. I started it last night and right when i was like "ok, this seems like a great spot to stop and save the rest of the episode for tomorrow" it ends. I would've been pissed as all hell if i didn't have the next episode already available.

It's a sucky thing to complain about at this point, I'll admit, and in the grand scheme of things TWAU is at least 8-10 hours long, making it longer than many AAA games for the most part. But man, episode 4 confirmed that there is no better way to play these games then as a full game once all the episodes are out.
