have my poop
 
The one with uninspired, randomly generated dungeons? Filled with terrible, unnecessary loot?
With random encounters which were both tedious and boring?
With close to no strategy required to beat anything that wasn't a boss encounter?

The same could be said of pretty much any JRPG I've ever played, save for the "randomly generated dungeons".

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.
Welp

that does look pretty ugly. I actually thought salt and sanctuary was that pixel art dark souls game, i don't remember what it was called. Just goes to show you how much I follow some of these games lol :p

My reaction when it was revealed was something along the lines of "boy, if SC didn't sell really well, I can't wait to see how TC does. Maybe they can follow the 50% price increase model and sell less to continue the trend." ;)

Can you imagine if TC cost $45 at launch? I'm pretty sure the Trails fanatics in here would buy it, even if they had to work the street corners or sell plasma to raise that kind of dough. ;)
i mean depends on budget and expectations. if they sell it for more cos they can afford playing the long game then that's fine

i don't think tits 2 is unreasonably priced

i'd love to see a future where modders get paid for their work in a way that's not exploitative. i wonder if valve will find the way to do it but i'm not too optimistic

did zky mod the character portraits in platinum's TMNT?

Here's an odd one: a Chinese mining company has bought Runescape developer Jagex for $300m.


That's according to the Financial Times and DealStreetAsia, which reports Shandong Hongda Mining Co Ltd, a ferrous metal mining firm that produces iron powder, copper powder and iron ore, picked up the British game company.

Jagex told Eurogamer it had yet to sign on the dotted line, but it looks like that's all that's left to do. Here's a statement:

Jagex has entered into a non-exclusive, non-binding arrangement for a potential acquisition. The negotiations surrounding the acquisition are ongoing and it remains very much business as usual for the Company.

Eh, I had Steam Authenticator enabled since Winter Sale but on Email. Now I wanted to sell a card (I know, I have neglected card business for a while) but it says I "haven't used the Authenticator for more than 7 days".
Only per phone. Stupid.

No one wanted to dance with me in Stardew.
I was devastated.

This may or may not be a common opinion, but I think all Ska Studios' games look like butt. I just can't stand the art at all.

Some people like butts.
Like Sir Mix-a-lot.

And Ska Studios makes good games, even if you don't dig the art. :p

James confirmed via twitter the other day that Vampire Smile was still coming to PC and they were also working on Charlie Murder for Steam.
 
Indiegala are handing out Street Racing Syndicate. It has trading cards:

Apparently email isn't two factor enough (as it is the same computer and RAT* is a thing that comes with some Steam accessing malware kits) and sending an SMS each time a $0.05 card is sold is not worth it hence the
cr
App solution. Don't ask anyone what happened to listings less than $x requiring no additional action or Windows phone users being completely fucked over (
I suspect this one is Valve don't like Windows apps being their most threatening competitor due to being bundled with the OS, Microsoft are doing a good job of making sure they are not a serious competitor though
) and forced to use dubious solutions like Steam desktop authenticator (you can encrypt the credentials via password giving you some protection from RAT).

*-Remote access trojan...I was seriously confused why malware kits would say COMES WITH A RAT until the acronym was explained (also another reason NOT TO USE ALL CAPS)

Yeah, put me in the camp that thought Salt and Sanctuary was EITR. EITR isn't hard on the eyes, unlike that screenshot Salsa posted lol

It's like high school all over again.

what's that about HB being late? Is it true? when is it?
Also an amazing bundle got even amazingerer, another game from my wishlist? Why are you so good HB? It's suspicious, you know
It's 1 PM PST, so I'm guessing 8 PM GMT?

Mh, hope Valve put more effort (and money) into their security after the last hacks/issues. Now that I gave them my phone number, I'd hate to see scammers get their hands on it.

It's only one tap to confirm sales but it ought to get a tad annoying when I'm selling several dozens of cards. Hm, no other way it seems.

No other way? Why not simply allow me to put multipe cards into ONE PACKAGE? So you would only have to acknowledge it ONCE, INSTEAD OF 132 TIMES! Whoever at Valve thought this through is a complete moron. For a software company, they sure suck at actually designing good software.

Ha, I agree. I meant no other way to do it for me at the moment it seems ;)
