I hope Outlast DLC, but probably Trine 1 or 2
something the spoiler police will beat your head in with a bat for mentioning
it refills the new "mana" bar, its back to mana like Demons Souls instead of numbered charges for spells. The mana bar is also used for new specila melee attacks. You have a new FP Estus flask to refill it, but you need to choose if you have normal health estus charges or FP estus charges

Hopefully Rare Replay will come to PC and then I can sell my Xbox without hesitation. For all the problems with the Windows Store, it has to be better than playing those games on an Xbox One, right?
That's the literal translation of the original Japanese title.

Considering the bundle comes with an Outlast DLC coupon, I doubt it will be that.

Why does anyone want Rare Replay? I mean we are on PC and people still might have the N64 and could play the game on emulators in 4k, couldnt they?
I just want to play viva piñata, no other reason.
-__-
it's not easy without like professional treatement with like a psychiatrist or whatever and if i did therapy i'd probably work on other stuff rather than this since it's not really a big problem in my life outside of videogames
it's not a horror game, not that it matters
ahh ok. i don't like to think too much on whether a game's worth the asking price cos that's super subjective and not very useful imo. i prefer to think if a game's worth my time, which is also subjective but something i'm more comfortable thinking about
yeah, was my least favorite part of the game, probablyThere are technically spiders in Undertale, I think...
but they're not gross spiders and have some fun music and tea and bake sales so i'm cool with them
i didn't find the pacifist run difficult, tho a few boss fights took me multiple tries
All truth.
I forgot Alex worked at Harmonix for a while.
People will pay for convenience has been proven again and again.
They also professionally update the huds, menus, and other 2D elements which don't scale well with high resolution emulation.
The Jacob centered DLC.

Oh. Didnt know that. Thanks for clarifying that.
Viva Pinata, come on.
Lol I would be amazed if they "ported" the PSP version when they already have a PC release.
Just take out the h-scenes and there's your PSP port. Oh and machine TL the game and bam, ready to be on steam.
Not like this...
Ugh.
Never before has my interest dropped that quickly.
*aborts*
It's on my dying drive anyway, so I couldn't play it even if I wanted to.

Getting all the legal copies of all those games seems like it would be a mess, and expensive. A neat little package of them all for 30$ sounds pretty damn good.
Is this what Dusk teased
Steam bundle prices will now drop based on how many of the games in them you own
Called it!
Let's see if I can get 2 for 2.
In the near future Valve will implement PWYW feature for freeware games, just like on .io stores.

Maybe I should auction off my Viva Piñata PC retail copy to SteamGAF.

Rare Replay is a bit more than just emulation, it adds metagame components, exclusive developer interviews, Making of videos and informational videos about all videogames that were cancelled in development.
It's got a bunch of 360 games. Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie, Banjo Tooie are the Live Arcade releases rather than the original.

Or Fire Emblem?
Come on, do you really think it'd be well received if it was just a straight up ROM dump?
I'm sure they did some work on getting them to look the best they could on a modern platform, added achievements and all the other bells and whistles that would come with an X1 game.
Besides, if you want to play a bunch of the games you missed out on or might be hard to acquire legally, this is the easiest way to do so. Also, even if you have legal clearance to acquire ROMs for games that you bought previously, finding a working ROM on a working emulator is still risky proposition. Sometimes emulation can't handle or reproduce certain effects correctly and such too, so one would hope the Rare Replay collection (or anything like it) does everything right so you get as close to the original experience as possible.
Did my best to erase and not read whatever you typed. Saw something about "refills". Getting my tire iron ready and looking for AHA-Lambda's address.
What in the Seven Hells?
Not sure what it means, but congrats, I'm out. Maybe I'll come back in 6 weeks. Peace.

now please save our company we did it!
naw, hmx can go fuck themselves on this. You put all your eggs in the console basket and never gave PC gamers a shot and now that you're nearing your timely death you come bearing this nonsense and begging us to bail you out
super annoyed by this obviously
yeah, i think i read that it's free in NA because we already got Super Stardust HD from the PSN hack a few years ago.

I've read some fucked up stuff on SteamGAF, but this might take the cake.

listen to the mad man
Harmonix's founder is on the board of directors. Fig's owner is DoubleFine's former CFO and Schafer is on the board of directors. Obsidian is also represented on the board of directors and will be funding something on Fig.
For people who don't have a stake, it's presumably the lower upfront cost (Fig appears to have dropped its initial 5% upfront cost in favour of a post-release revenue share model) and the ability to connect with Venture Capital.
Of course those factors are weighed against the fact that Fig has no built-in audience so you basically need to self-start all the attention you attract.
Seems like a bad move to me for adverse selection reasons: if your project seems deserving of VC money then you could probably get it without Fig. Especially if you're a company with past VC connections. So if you're coming to Fig, it's presumably because you couldn't secure VC without a middleman. Which in turn discourages further VC because "what am I not seeing that the other guys are being scared off by?"
If you couldn't tell, the game is about being a Father Figure to a young anime lady and watching her become a busty anime lady. At least that's what the broken english description implies.
Someone complained about their butchering an eroge, which I took to mean the game is censored, and I took it to the natural conclusion that the daughter character is the one that got censored.
I looked at the Greenlight and there were indeed people complaining that it was censored and they needed to allow a fanpatch to get the lewdness back in.
I was being sarcastic, because I can't imagine anyone being upset about a game where you play a father figure having its' lewd content cut.

A bit too expensive...
Codes were going to be given away in some 10 euro german PC magazine. Might be worth looking into if you really want it.
Yeah, I agree! That's why I thought it was strange that so many people had something against the price.
bought fallout 4 season pass god i hope they're happy
I'll gladly rename the genre once that hits steam.

I'm getting depressed about stuff like Vive/Rift exclusivity, and Windows 10 exclusivity.
It's gonna bum me out in 2020 when I won't be able to play a game on Windows 11 with my Asus VR headset because Elder Scrolls VI was Win 10 Rift exclusive.
We're gonna have to keep hard drives with compatible operating systems on them lying around.
The VR thing is so stupid. It's like a game declaring itself "G-Sync exclusive," or "144Hz exclusive," or "16:10" exclusive.
Can't play it on your 16:9 monitor, guys!
I'm just surprised that we're moving to this locked down environment when Carmack and Gaben are supposed to be at the forefront of these technologies. It's like Carmack forgot the years he spend battling for OpenGL to break MicroSoft's and 3DFX's attempts at fracturing the market.
