Well if you'd like you can play Momodora I and II for free! But Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight is also a prequel so you can jump right in without knowing anything and be just fine.

Thanks for this link. Downloading Momodora I + II.

 

[XShagrath]

Stump, we need answers

That's easy: Austrian Death Machine

 

[Pachimari]

Do somebody remember those RPG-like pixel games which should be free to download as well? I think one of them had "you don't have to love" or something in the title. I also think there are two games. I had them on my old desktop but don't remember their titles?

 

[freshVeggie]

Dead Rising 2 is fun but the save system, very bad beginning, painfully quick weapon breakage, toggle to get out of grapple.. so frustrating.
I will probably look for cheats to change weapon degradation. It's frustrating.

The Wasteland 2 key from the monthly bundle actually gives 3 games:

Wasteland 1 - The Original Classic
Wasteland 2
Wasteland 2: Director's Cut

Damn, that's good.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

And yes, you can... if you're in the beta client. But Undertale won't run in the beta client, so... I could either:

(1) Go into BPM mode and configure/rebind or
(2) Opt back into the beta, restart, configure outside of BPM, opt out of the beta, restart, then launch Undertale.

Before I remembered that I had to opt out of the beta to get Undertale to run, I right clicked it to try and then said a bunch of curse words when the option wasn't there.

oh, i wasnt aware that something in the Steam beta messed up Undertale. Weird and unfortunate especially since Undertale plays very well with the pad.

Stardew Valley is seriously addicting, loving it so far even though I think I've done some dumb decisions with my farm.

 

[Black Soma]

I thought this was going to be mostly a Castlevania inspired ride, but there's even a bit of Dark Souls/Bloodborne in it. Things like no real music in the background, animations when descending a ladder or using a healing item, the rolling, or the healing items themselves being rechargeable at save points. Even discovering hidden walls seems to cue a similar sound effect as when the same thing happens in Dark Souls. And then the second area of the game looks a lot like Yharnam.

^looking good. How long are you expecting it to be?

Should be around 4-6 hours long, from what I've heard.

^ I enjoy the look of that Momodora game. Would I need to play the previous entries, is there a story?

This one is apparently a prequel, so no really need to play the previous ones, I suppose.
Story seems fairly minimalist, and told through dialogues with NPCs.

hows is momodora 3 anyways?

do u guys recommend it?

It's a very short game (2 or so hours, can be finished in much less), but really cute and fairly challenging on hard.

 

[Vlad]

That stuff about Braid's narrative is kinda spoiler-ish, even if I thought it wasn't really much of a surprise/revelation myself. I deleted it from the quote, but you may want to consider tagging it.

Whoops, thanks. Corrected.

As for Braid's gameplay being more engaging? I think the exact opposite. Most of Braid was either too obvious or too obtuse for me. And I hated the art style and was not invested in the story, either. While I didn't really find the story of Fez to be engaging, the gameplay was much better for me, even if I didn't care to try to complete the decoding puzzles on my own.

Hm, while the art style stuff is subjective, of course, I thought that Braid had just the right difficulty curve. Each set of levels operated off of a different mechanic, so of course the initial ones are going to be obvious while it introduced what kind of time manipulation you were going to be working with.

 

[Pachimari]

Browsing Kickstarter just now as well, I discovered that the amount needed for each project is listed in my local currency. Is there no way to have it be set to dollars by default? I can't find anything in the settings panel.

Looks like Higu Ch. 3 is 100% translated and edited.

 

[SilentMatthew]

Been playing Divinity: Original Sin EE as of late via the 4-player mod (.exe edit) and it's been quite a bit of fun. Albeit, with some minor bugs like no music(just sound effects & voices) and some stat degradation that requires a in-game reset to restore.

Now I'm way more excited about the official 4-player co-op feature in DOS2 since all the follower characters can't do much except for stealing and killing in DOS.

 

[LordAmused]

tell me about it, if I fail to achieve approval of my grandpa, the first year decisions will be to blame, most of them anyway. I wish I knew then what I know now.

At the same time, I think it's part of the charm, not knowing what you are doing and improving in the second year.

Seems like all of Electronic Arts, Activision, Disney and Wargaming are skipping the E3 showfloor this June.

E3 loses two more as Disney, Wargaming decide the show floor doesn’t make sense

 

[zkylon]

thanks for the momodora impressions

somehow it sneaked into my library so i might just give it a shot someday soon

i really want to get back to eternity and play the white march stuff but at the same time i'm not ready for something that long and involved

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Another free game giveaway:

Breakout Invaders, Match 3 Revolution, Arkhelom 3D, or Tompi Jones. Won't know which until you enter that Steam key in. 8 required poisons; total of 13 poisons (4 stream groups, 4 twitter account, 2 facebook page, 2 youtube, one spam newsletter).

See, you don't need to give Digital Homicide $1 for some +1...

[Parsnip]

Well if you'd like you can play Momodora I and II for free! But Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight is also a prequel so you can jump right in without knowing anything and be just fine.

As for Momodora, I don't think the story is anything you need to have played previous games for. Momodora III was a good time, even if I had problems getting it to run on my 770 and had to opt to play on my netbook instead. I didn't feel like I was missing out because the story is pretty basic/generic and the real draw is the platforming/combat. And that part is pretty good.

This one is apparently a prequel, so no really need to play the previous ones, I suppose.
Story seems fairly minimalist, and told through dialogues with NPCs.

Cool cool.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

What's the closest game to Star Fox on STEAM?

 

[Khronico]

Thought SteamGAF might be interested in this
Inner Chains, currently on Kickstarter and Greenlight

I haven't heard of this before and now I really want it.

Edit: How in the world did you people get to 70 pages already.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

What's the closest game to Star Fox on STEAM?

Race the Sun is really good if you want to seek the minimal style of the SNES Star Fox game while having a genuine sense of speed. No combat though, just strictly dodging obstacles as they come.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

What's the closest game to Star Fox on STEAM?

maybe Astebreed?

 

[corrosivefrost]

maybe Astebreed?

Kinda...

I don't think there's a lot of Star Fox style games on steam/pc in general though.

 

[Nzyme32]

soooooo...a normal GAF thread then?

Pretty much. People devolving into meme and twitch chat fanatics, then get proven wrong and don't reply, then someone else does the same thing and knee jerks at everything, then the usual fanboy behaviour at anything and everything. I shouldn't venture into the gaming side.

Seems like all of Electronic Arts, Activision, Disney and Wargaming are skipping the E3 showfloor this June.

Not massively surprising considering how E3 is. Best to invest the money directly into customer centric stuff

What's the closest game to Star Fox on STEAM?

I have an early access game that is promising but not quite there. Called Sky Rogue, still a way to go but not bad for now.



Also this one is being made by an ex-Valve guy. Called Faceted Flight..... but it isn't out yet. Should be out around the time SteamVR comes out

 

[dave is ok]

Ace Combat maybe? all the shmups I have on steam are 2d.

 

[freshVeggie]

I see plenty Wasteland 2, Grav, Stick of Truth and Angvik raffles on SG. I take those are in the past humble monthly. (I'm on mobile and lazy atm to check)

We'll see. I am patient but I play for fun. If I don't have much vanilla but with cheats, then so be it.

man i really don't want to have to watch a zillion different nintendo directs, where's the fun shenanigans in that

you don't get jamie kennedies in nintendo direct

publishers pls don't forget what e3 is really about

 

[Corpekata]

Strike Suit Zero is somewhat Star Foxish, though it allows for greater degrees of freedom.

I still find it hard to imagine how Lucasarts made the decision to go forward with publishing a half finished game, when they previously agreed to delay it. A crime, nothing less.
