Party Hard (Windows/Mac/Linux)

I think I'm also only missing Party Hard, meh

But it is a good bundle if you don't already own most of them

For people asking for it:

While it is a very disappointing bundle due to owning most of them already and it overall being nothing that special (I'll probably still get it for the 1 game i don't have) i think it actually is the best bundle they've done; i don't remember there being this many 'high-profile' indie games in their bundles before. There's occasionally 1 or 2 fairly well known indie games but not usually like this.

Party Hard, Lethal League, Skullgirls, Door Kickers, Sir, You Are Being Hunted, Reus, Another World 20th Anniversary Edition, and Viscera Cleanup Detail Complete Pack.

A list of nice games but nothing out of this world (heh heh) or worthy of a countdown.

It's a decent bundle for sure, just too bad I own a couple of them. Own 5/8 in fact so I'm goign to have to skip despite the 3 I don't have looking decent..

Except that constitutes no one that knows Bundlestars exists. I mean at like $2 it would have been worth it for Party Hard and Lethal League I guess. But seriously, this isn't even close to their best bundle.

What would you consider their best bundle to have been?

oy vey at people saying its a average bundle. For 3.15€ what the fuck do you consider a good bundle then? The indiegala trash with literal +1s?
 
I'm tempted to get it just for Cleanup Detail anyway, but is that the sort of game that needs friends? I don't think i know anyone else that has it.

It is a pretty nice bundle, but I only need Party Hard from it, so probably will wait and hope it pops up in another one.
 
I really only want Another World and Party Hard - but it's still a pretty good deal.

I'll give it a solid maybe

Same.

And then I realized I already had Another World... so it's a hard pass for me. I didn't get Party Hard in the Steam sale so there's no point in me paying that price now just to get dupes.

Too bad I already have everything except Another World and Viscera Cleanup and I don't need those. But @ 3,15€ a good bundle I guess.

It isn't a "hype it for four days" bundle. There's a difference between +1s and stuff that is currently (or very recently) bundled elsewhere. Bundlestars has done bundles in the past of good games that have never been bundled.

Now if this was a bundle on the front page of Steam, that would be different. But what percentage of people who buy at bundlestars aren't already bundle buyers?
 
Game!

I doubt there's a single soul playing Lead & Gold these days. Even back in its heyday it was always a TF2 clone with no community.

Definitely fun, though. In its own, weird way.

It reached an all time concurrent players peak earlier today! The devs are giving away 100k copies of the game in hopes of rejuvenating it, I guess.
 
Oh man those Necropolis reviews. I was kinda hoping that game would be cool.

Great!

This is the closest Steam is going to get to having vanilla TF2. So I hope they enjoy it while it lasts.

Lethal League being in that bundle reminds me that I wish it was on the main stage at EVO every year. That game gets super hype when you have two good players. Damn. I guess, I'm gonna reinstall that when I get home.

Yeah, it took me a long time to realize how you actually progress time and plot in WotS3. I ended up doing a lot of quests I didn't really have to. Progress is done by
going to those marks on the map and starting scenes. After a certain number of them, certain set plot points happen. Depending on which of them you do, you're traveling down alternate paths and unlocking different scenes.
weird

it's strange cos those things only say "inkling" and are either crossed out or not and you get an early npc that just tells you like EVERYTHING about the game in a real metal gear way of "press A to ACTION"

but yea i'm probably gonna keep going, not sure how long it is but i would like to see different sides of the story and crap

Sadly, you can't do anything about the frame rate. It's a Gamebryo engine game and physics and time are probably tied to the framerate. You can however get rid of the jaggies pretty easily with downsampling. I just used the custom desktop size method rather than Gedosato or NVIDIA inspector.
yeah i don't really have the computer to do that kind of stuff

Oh, and choosing "Leave the area" or whatever it is on the map is how you get back to the main menu screen if that's not already what you're doing.
i read this a little bit after playing

that's an INSANE system to go back to the main menu

absolutely insane
