If someone could quietly PM me about what happened with Derrick I would appreciate it. It seems like I wasn't there.

It doesn't hurt go learn a bit about GAF before I joined.

Most of us think its a disappointing game, some think we're being too harsh on it.

I haven't play much so I can't give you an opinion except that I'm still stuck on mission 1 after 1 hour.. :/ so either I'm bad at this or this game has some bad designs.

---


Derrick? I keep hearing him being mentioned. Did I miss something, who is he? I think I missed it.

Pm me if you don't wanna post in public.


Thanks ! will wait til a sale then .

Also why i didn't know the guy for long Derrick was a guy who was a regular on Steam gaf who was very critical of mostly all games .
Nothing was above criticism for him . sometimes overly so

This on many occasions lead to arguing with other posters in other threads causing the thread to derail.

I don't remember for exactly what he was banned though except that it was by EMceegramr . ( His first ban as a new mod i recall)

The Steam equivalent of the drunk friend who keeps offering to pay your tab all night.
The question is: why are all your facebook pals 16? :p

I dont use facebook. I have a barebones accoutn with no posts for the sole purpose of free shit (before detective gafs does YES YOU DO USE FACEBOOK)

Social media in general is a disgrace and surely one of the things that will lead to the apocalypse
 
isnt most of steamgaf 16 these days anyway? sure feels like it, its like a stepped into facebook lately

I stop being a "teen" this year. :p

Spare.

There's a lot about Facebook I utterly despise, but I still use it simply because it's the best way to keep in contact with many people I know, since they're all on there.
 
I can't remember where I originally saw this reported but it's done the rounds of the enthusiast media human centipede that is a bit of a mess. Hahaha good job the SDB folks are trying to clear things up. Bet they wish they used ads now :p

This is the first time I hear about it. Surely, GAF would have picked it up.

Anyway, I still don't really care if it comes to Steam or not :p

Thank you for telling me. Sounds like a dark time for SteamGAF back then.

Nah, wouldn't call it dark times. He wasn't really active in here and even if he posted an opinion there were reasonable discussions or people didn't pick it up. It was the other threads that were problematic.

The release date was the big red flag. Dates aren't mentioned on SteamDB unless the data is pulled from the store page, and if Destiny had a store page it would have appeared in the history log.
 
I've played the first chapter of Jade Empire, but I find it...well, hard.
Maybe because my pad doesn't work so I can't evade attacks, but even on easy I must do some fights two times.
There's an option somewhere to change dodging to guard+stick direction. I dunno why they made it a double-tap, it was B+Move on the Xbox and it worked great.

Some day I hope I'm as good at something as you are at Steam.

I still believe that Destiny PC would get announced after the console releases, the only reason devs won't put a MMO shooter on PC is money hat IMO, announcing this early would hurt the customers' incentive to pick up consoles.

Haha, nice to know I've inspired somebody. ;)

Yeah, I'm expecting an announcement if not a release within a year of the console versions.

No worries, hope you enjoy it! :)

There's still one more Cat Lady key left:

The Cat Lady #4 -- MB-7FDAFB5CDADB600A - Taken by Cyberquake

...I...think I'm going to hold off on the bundle purchases now for a while. I've now got more random copies of Shuggy, inMomentum, etc than I know what to do with. xD

I had missed the free Sims 2 Ultimate Collection on Origin by redeeming the I-LOVE-THE-SIMS (only noticed because I was looking on isthereanydeals for the gamefly coupon for Vertical Drop Heroes HD, which didn't even work!). Not sure if I'll ever play it but a free game is a free game.

No need for a PM, he was a grumpy guy that hated AAA games and Indie games, he literally hated almost every game, he eventually got perma banned because he hated so many games A game was either AAA garbage or Indie shit

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Small reminder: There's still a Divinity: Original Sin raffle going on. Just one hour left!

Talking about OS, just defeated the boss
in the Faery Realm. The Ice King. Damn, that was one though fight. Pretty great.
Act Two feels suprisingly puzzley.

Building this new PC for a family member sucks.

Installing Windows and drivers onto this PC sucks.

I'd rather play Sakura Spirit. Which sucks.

My feet hurt.
