Wow, that's a heck of a trailer. I went ahead and upvoted it, hopefully they can see the project through to completion. I'd like to play it.

It looks great but 'Estimated delivery: Dec 2016' is so far away. Will that really be enough money for that amount of work/time?
Click to expand...

Yeah, that's what I was concerned about. Not to mention Parts 2 & 3 are stretch goals.

I can't access those particular links at work; would you mind linking the KS, or mentioning the game's name so I can look it up?

Seriously, what's with the hate LoH: TitS is getting from some random people? Is it because they're just trying to go against the flow? It's a great game with wonderful world/story to tell, which a lot of people are excited for. Nobody is claiming it's the JRPG to end all JRPGs.

Back from ban. Here are some games.

These should all work. Sorry if they don't.

"Too easy" as in someone being able to go to bed and wake up the following morning with a bunch of new cards in their inventory, idled for with optimum efficiency. (As opposed to idling manually, where you can't always be there to switch to a new game the minute you get the last drop for the one you're idling now, you might not idle non-stop because you want to actually play something in between, etc.)

Don't shoot the messenger, man. I'm just working through the potential implications of this thing.
Click to expand...

I generally will set every game I own that has drops available to idle when I go to sleep using SAM or the appID trick. When I wake up in the morning, they generally all have finished (or a large portion has) and I just clean up and close/reopen the games that still have drops.

Last night I left Concursion, Verdun, and Shank 2 idling.
6 hours later, I had all the cards from Shank 2 and Concursion that remained and I just closed all of them out and restarted Verdun. I was back to 0 until I was gifted Tits and WW was added to the blink bundle.

Would you guys pay for a monthly Steam subscription?

If it gave similar things to PS+ like two free games a month?

The EA thread got me thinking. Would be interesting but we would probably end up getting some crappy indie games.

No. Why pay for a subscription when I can own all the games for like $10 after a sale.

No, because with Steam sales, I could probably buy those two games for less. Or if not that, I can at least choose the two games I want for almost the same.

I'm glad to have the opportunity to play it, but I think you'll agree that they should have released a more stable game.

Thankfully they're working on it.

Ah cheers chaps. Well it's still a fustercluck with Ultra textures but turning them down to High is about the same level of performance before the first patch so it's at least vaguely playable. SLI is still fucked for me and gives worse performance than forcing a single card. If this has taken just over a month then I hate to think about the issues this frankesteined engine has. Yep not touching Unity until I've heard some user reports.

Click to expand...

Someone asked that very question to the dev. Here is his exact response: "Great questions! I'd rather be cautious about the deliver date instead of being late. If we have the game ready before that date, we will absolutely ship it. Believe me, I want this game to get into your hands as soon as possible! I've just seen too many Kickstarter's promise a delivery date they could not keep. Also, depending on how much support there is, we are making between one and three Appisodes worth of content. So the actual production time is shorter for one Appisode, and longer for 3x the content. Lastly, about the team - not everyone is working on the project at the same time or for the duration of the project. Most have or will contribute for smaller periods of time with just a few people core people staying on for the duration of the project. Hope that answers your questions!"

Ah, yeah, that one sucks. Hopefully they fix it soon. But even before it released, I saw some detractors for it.

probably not, I wasn't happy with PS+, also PC games are dirt cheap, you would need to offer wolfenstien of the next COD to get people on board which isn't going to happen.

I'd need to know what I'll get before saying yes or no. I'm fine with the value PS+ has given me the past two years but my gaming/purchasing habits are very different when it comes to consoles.

People over there say the patch helped noticeably, I'll try it later. Also new Nvidia drivers were released today.

I should play the PC version one of these days...

You forgot to add "unless you're using an ATI card, then The Last Remnant is flat-out broken." Square-Enix never did fix it.

I know it could be a big hassle, but would be cool an option to exclude certain games (the ones I plan to play lol). Or, perhaps just a way to edit a .ini file or something to add the ones you don't want to drop cards? Either way, looking forward to it, thanks and keep up the good work!
