Excellent price!

On sale on GOG too!
5$ or BTA Bundle Tier looks like the sweet spot for this to me.
I liked the music I listened to but saw not much gameplay footage to grab me entirely.

Praise the skies.

It's hard to believe just yesterday we are getting one step closer to getting the whole series in English. Just two games left and the upcoming Cold Steel 3.

Never been a better time to be an old-school RPG fan on PC!

idk i'd say the crpg reinassance on kickstarter was it but ok
 
it's a very animu jrpg with average combat and story, although the characters and their antics are really enjoyable

i enjoyed it but i also think it's not by any means a noteworthy jrpg

Anyone who says League is the best thing ever, their opinion is disregarded on any other game ever anyway.

From what I read on the web, whether it is DX12 or Vulkan, it's not smart to expect devs and games taking full advantage this early in the new techs life, so I'm not disappointed rather surprised that so early on even, it works "well".

I'll quote this again:

From Microsoft’s point of view, Langley echoed Baker’s statements. Working with developers, Microsoft is already finding that DX12 is typically a net win for CPU performance in most cases. Just how much any in-development title is benefitting from DX12 varies from game to game, but a common thread in all of these cases is that the earlier game developers can implement it the better. Games that add DX12 at the last moment are benefitting the least – and Microsoft is trying to help developers integrate it sooner – whereas games that do integrate it sooner like Ashes are seeing much more significant benefits.

Why is Steam logging me out randomly, it's so annoying, especially as I have to type in that authentication code every time.

Starting up Hitman now. It have been weeks since I last played a game on my PC.

OneShot is coming to Steam!

This was a REALLY good freeware RPG Maker game (not a horror game, more a puzzle-adventure game). The screenshots and trailer show the Steam version will have some new content as well.

I can't really talk about it that much without spoiling, but it has a sort of metagame element that's very different than most of them, and a surprisingly emotional story, a very good original soundtrack, and some very clever puzzles.

stop calling me zky zky chan -__-

Chocolate?
it changes from day to day

right now it's motorcycles!

You haven't? I am sure you said that once though. I was only being snarky anyway, I didn't mean it.
i think league's a great game but certainly one with a stupid amount of issues as a game of that level of complexity and ambition can be (and also rito is very dumb sometimes). i don't know much about doto but it's a similarly deep game and it seems to be a lot more together while you can very often see league falling apart at the seams, etc.

but yeah i wouldn't really call it the best game ever, it's one i personally enjoy and it would undoubtely have a place in the list of more important games for me personally but that's about it

i'd put winning eleven on that list too cos it made me bond with my best friend of highschool but i wouldn't say winning eleven is the best game ever lol

Day one.
Arthea, you there? You there? We made it!!!
Ao and Zero confirmed as well

I probably should build a temple to Adios, shouldn't I? because honestly at this point in time I had 0 hope left we'll ever get more. It has to be her handywork.
That's almost too good to be true!

edited: now I can't help but wonder exactly when in 2017, TC is not so big as other two games, but still a lot of work I imagine

None compare to The Legend of Heroes, obviously
also has no Adios watching over them?


Does anyone have a link to the first SteamGAF game of the year thread?

There was no thread that time, unless I forgot, I had a post bookmarket, without pics tho, but can't find it right now.

Trails or The Legend of Heroes?
There are 12 main games in TLoH series, 7 of those are Trails games.

edited: also you totally should play FC

The story in Trails in the Sky 1 goes all the way to TiTS 7!? Really? That's quite an investment I have to make then.

[edit]
TLoH6 TitS FC
TLoH6 TitS SC
TLoH6 TitS The 3rd
Oh, so TitS is a trilogy. That's what I wanted to know.
