Unfortunately, most bundles are just for +1 steam games now and getting shitty games greenlit.

You know, it'd be nice if you could tell Steam that you are "Not interested" in a particular game without clicking to the game's store page.

Thanks. Never heard of it, but preordered for it. Looks neat.
Nooo, my Witcher-fan heart hurts.
It's an Action RPG. It'll have like 30 minutes of story, tops.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I've just pushed a small update to Idle Master that should fix an issue with some of the new features not working correctly. You can manually update by running the setup program from steamidlemaster.com. I've also updated the portable version on the site to 1.0.1. Thanks everyone for your patience.

Gamespot link: "it took me several minutes to figure it out"... that simply can't be true. No way.
I actually enjoyed Castlevania Lords of Shadow 1 and even 2. It plays fine and the combat is fun.
That's an obvious bullshot, even if it looks that good at this point in development they won't ship it like this.
EDIT:The studio who's making it is located about an hour away from where I live...I had no idea they were making it, thought they were one of EAs smartphone app making studios.

I know, but let's keep faith. It is about time we play games in such graphics. The wait has been so long and painful.
Key is "in-engine" shot vs "in-game".
Besides in-game will have tons of motion blur, so it's not like you'd even see any detail.
This.
Also, real life has some pedestrians, the computer bullshots seem to take place in a post-apocalyptic future where some unknown factor has decimated human population.

Haha yeah. It will be always a big hog to render real-life humans whatever they do.
How long is this World Cup draw going to take!?!?!?
I'm sure there will be some contrived reason like the Batman games why no one is about. Maybe there's been a flu pandemic and the racers are ferrying vaccine to hospitals or it's really a bloody sport for our entertainment ala Death Race or something.

Last nights Chivalry game night was fun. Died horribly and stupidly being my first time... also teamkilled Expert two times in a row, sooorry -_-'
Feels a bit clunky but I think by investing some time I could get the hang out of it. CoOp horde mode was fun! I suck at PvP :'(
Had to leave about after 1 hour though sadly. Looking eagerly froward to our next game night!
Here some gifs!
This never gets old. Never.
Put up the shield just in the right time
Betraying and teamkilling Expert Hey, at least I revenged you, kinda!
Greatest achievement, DOUBLEKILL. Why is there no medieval announcer :/

That'd make for a better story than some of the contrived shit we've seen in racers. And honestly would probably make for a more entertaining game than NFS has been in a decade, aswell.

Do you have it turned off by accident? I have mine on the lowest notch in the menu and I can notice it pretty much anytime I turn the camera.

So it was you who stepped into my and derexpertes duel by killing us both
Also we ended up going for another hour so wasn't super long.

Why would you want motion blur? Thats like one of the first things i turn off when i start game
When the NFS series has tried to do a story it's the equivalent of a poundshop Jerry Bruckheimer action flick. I think The Crew is also meant to have an awful story populated with cringe worthy characters. The Driver series has been up and down but the first really nailed that 60's, 70's car chase scene style gameplay and San Francisco gets brownie points for ripping off Life on Mars (if you're going to steal from something steal from something good). Stuntman while not really having a story or even a racer per say always had the right atmosphere.
I don't know, per object motion blur can look awful sexy mind on weapon swings and such if not used OTT. Velocity based camera motion blur I find nauseating though at higher framerates.
hmm there's only on and off on my end, I see no difference with it on, I don't know what the blur option is either
I like to turn it on if I play games at 30fps, seems to give an illusion of smoothness when moving the camera

Thanks, updated!
That's a really neat series you posting. Interesting to see figures.
I don't know tbh I wouldn't mind if any future Half-Life would be outright cancelled forever. The series had its time, move to something new. There's enough Half-Life for everyone already.
Yeah it was really fun,
the horde was fun but it was really laggy for me sadly
what I enjoyed the most are the team dm in the small maps, i just love the chaos
even if i get killed by my own team
if we're gonna do another Chivalry night, I'm in!
yeah it's really frustrating, i wished they added the camera feature thingy like in Shadow of Mordor
I concur with... Everything in this comment. And object-focused / based motion blur can be pretty great, especially with weapons as you mention. I've seen some sexy things with motion-blurred arrows, swords and axes.
Some daaaaamn sexy things I tell ya... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Do you want to be on my shitlist? Because that's how you get on my shitlist.

Oh yeah, it is just an on and off switch, well I have mine on and blur on and motion blur is definitely noticable. Not sure what it could be then.
Mine is Goat Sim + Gods Will Be Watching + Westerado.
It's interesting how the rarest achievements aren't always the hardest games, although usually over time it sort of normalizes.
It also has to do with the audience for a game. I've noticed shmups for example tend to have higher completion percentages than you'd think, just because the people who buy them are more hardcore.
I'm fine with a working hide/show button, but yeah either that or HUDless screens button should be in every game.
Yeah, Goat Sim have extremely simple cheevos so they "shouldn't" be rare. but most people playing it don't even look at the cheevo list I guess. It's way different for more niche games.

Do NOT play it you hate bugs, my god! D:

My rarest achievements are all Spiral Knights, and recently Coffin Dodgers, having played it once for the alienware stream.
And I guess it's staying that way for a long time. Is Spiral Knights even online anymore? The fall from grace for that game was crazy, almost like Tribes Ascend.
And now I'm sad.

Last night's Chivalry games were a lot of fun, I still haven't gotten used to the various hitboxes but I'm sure I'll get around. I definitely learned as we kept playing.
There were some memorable occurrences that I still giggle when I think about them like:
- Seeing Spirited soaked in blood coming at me, kill him, "hum.. that was rather passive", see the team kill pop up and his frustration through mumble.
- The times I became a tower Knight and refused to die against four enemies :3
- The mumble chat had its moments =P
- having a fairly good positive K/D and seeing my deaths double in the span of 3-5 minutes
- The game was so life-like I ended up breaking a tooth =/
I'll look up some guides to see how to unlock stuff so that I'm better equipped next time.
The mine map was a mess xD

until my stamina ran out, RIP. I did manage to juke and recover stamina once but yeah going "This is my house!" and becoming a immovable wall is fun :3

It's time for a celebration. We're at 9% folks.
Just think if we still had Russian Traders it'd probably be like at 50%
hmm I should go get geralt a new haircut for this week.
yeah that works, I remember dragon age origins has it with just a tab button to hide hud but you need to use a command in inquisition

Good save. That might have been my arrow as it was only me and one other archer up there.

Well it's trucking along at 1% a day so even if that stays the same and there isn't a dip in sale or a tail end resurgence it should make 100% a couple of days before release. Though after Defiance went it's whole pre purchase campaign barely getting to tier 1 and then suddenly in the last 2 days cleared all 3 tiers I get the feeling pubs can adjust the requirements as and when they see fit. Not that I reckon Scamco would want to give Symphonia away for free mind.
I hope The Phantom Pain bombs as hard so I can get it cheap.

now the real question is if Tales of Symphonia will be 60 fpsIt's time for a celebration. We're at 9% folks.
That's not nice to say ;_;
