Dandelion is the best now that he's all stylish. Behold his glory:
I got it on GOG so what am I getting excited over...
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
gaming side is terrible
but I don't see anything wrong with the hypothetical NvC, mind you I haven't opened the thread yet
I'm so behind on the 52 Games a Year challenge. Only 17 complete.
My own fault really, I've played far more than 52 games, but I still feel like I have more discover and thus don't count some titles as truly complete just yet like still having a pure chaos/evil run of Dishonored I keep putting off despite having finished the story a few times and the challenges (but not all the DLC).
Sometimes the other side of things. I just never complete a title even if I get close to doing so for it's story or seeing every stage or what have you because I just can't play a game if it feels like it's tedious work or I'm not having fun. Something like Ironclad Tactics just lacks enough to keep me interested in it's game play or strategy and I have no desire to play a strategy title where tactics seem less skill and more luck based due to it's card system and limited placement options.
I could also perhaps play less titles of 60+ hours in length, but I think I almost understand how to do everything well in Pillars of Eternity.

Another vote for Iorveth as best path!
Speaking of The Witcher 2, I died in Chapter 3 to a stupid group of gargoyles. Insane mode really lulls you into thinking it's easy and you're totally fine and then...
I started it all again. At this point I think I can play the prologue and Flotsam blind.
Chapter 2 is pretty easy, Iorveth's path gets a bit difficult at the end during the assault, but I usually just fly the soldiers away with aard. 3 is tricky, but I thought I would have some problems with the Operator, not a group of gargoyles :
If I die again I think I'll leave this be for a while, at least until after The Witcher 3.

People still use MotionInJoy and actually recommend it for others '._.
I loved "guardians" in W2 (monsters that guard good loot). In the end i had (almost) best weapons and armor because exploring mattered in W2. I hope that CDPR did same thing in W3.
I played only Iorveth path and it was really good experience

with best magic in the game

I'd like to conduct a study to see if there's a correlation between those that call downgrade based on promo trailers and those who think the likes of SweetFX makes games 'better'.
Not too much these days as the weird things that used to happen in drivers and display detection has mostly been sorted. Though make sure you are outputting the right colour space for you display (the RGB Full/Limited toggle under Colour Management in NVCP). If your display accepts refresh rates of 24, 50 or 59.94hz you might find a game picks the lowest refresh rate available but can be rectified by creating a custom resolution with the exact parameters (resolution x and y and refresh rate).

Yay!
I only used SweetFX when i was running AC Unity at 900p to add small amount of sharpening (and it worked).
Other than that i don;t really like ReShade and SweetFX.Oh, my body is so ready right now.
Huzzah.
all Higurashi is something like 70 hours long if not longer, so 9 hours is nothing!
We just are used that VNs on steam are short, I actually have 36 hours in Long Live the Queen, but then again I 100%-ed it and it's choice based, so not the same.
~10 hours is more or less normal length, Narcissu is ~8 hours, for example, although unvoiced version is faster to finish.
Well, it depends how fast you read, but that's not very long. There are some that are pretty short, especially smut games, but the story driven VNs with multiple paths tend to be rather long. For example Clannad has more text than all Harry Potter books together, and more than fours times than the whole Lord of the Rings trilogy. The whole Higurashi game is even a bit larger.
btw. it's really weird to meassure Visual Novels in time, when the reading, comprehension and fapping speed can vary very heavily between two humans.
I noticed that it shows here that The Witcher unlocks in 14 hours... so it's not today after all? Or almost not today. Or is it unlocking at different times in different regions?
edited: talking about Higurashi, I wish they remade backgrounds too, now they look horrible with those better looking characters. It doesn't seem like that much work, I wonder why they didn't made them to make characters. Soundtrack is nice, tho

It's "today" in some countries. I think it unlocks at midnight in Poland for the whole world of humans and france and thus it's "today" for some e.g. the USA.

Well, it's 10:30am in Poland right now so 14 hours is about right!

Just take an ambien and sleep all day long.
(when in reality you are just messaging everyone you ever knew, ever)

Just wanted to clarify since it's "today" for some and "tomorrow" for others, some people seemed genuinly confused about that in the cdpr forums.
I for one going to sleep early today and jump at my PC first thing in the morning.

Because we are secretly failures. Freelance/independent contracting is shit. Good money for what you put in but I'd rather have a steady job.
I do transcription/translating and Lyft driving. Pays for my side of the rent and things. Not much else
Am I doing something wrong or GeForce Experience doesn't find it yet?

No driver for you, Red!
I live in Hamburg. It's close to France so reality get warped.aren't we in the same timezone, though?
And I enjoy sleeping to much to play through the night. I am going to ride through the lands fresh and healthy.
I went to University just so I could pull that shit. I dread the day I actually finish my studies.
It doesn't. I just downloaded from the link and applied it that way.
It's not live on GeForce Experience. Only manual downloads.
ahhh, I wish I could have studied forever. The best time of rl.
Mine has been doing that with Project CARS. ;_;

Well, not really.
I don't always play newest games at their launch day. The last couple ones went smoothly for me, in fact. DA: Inquisition with the mantle support, and GTA V.

If LiS didn't update before Witcher 3 finished unpacking, then I'm gonna push it back to weekends(I'll be home then), I won't stop once I start.
what's up with you and France, anyway? You do remember that French gave us Ubi and everything related? *insert evil laugh here*

Hi guys quick question. Just replaced the CPU and motherboard on my PC, and I had backed up the steam apps folder from my previous build. So to get my new computer up to date with my Steam library, I do the following:
- Download and install Steam
- Start Steam for the first time and close
- copy backed up steam apps folder and replace existing one
- Start Steam, find my game list, and validate game cache as needed
Do I have the steps down?

blame canada
kinda... French gave us Canada too, also I like Canada, hands off Canada!
edited: On second thought, I like France too, and even past Ubi, it's just that they lost their way and we need to show them the light
You don't need to run Steam before replacing the SteamApps folder, and verifying game data won't be necessary unless something refuses to run. For future reference you can just back up the entire Steam folder and everything will work just fine.

The latest episode pissed me the hell off, I'm still angry with the writers.
Well, tell me if you ever take a trip to the north again
The south is the most economically healthy part of Germany, aight, so you at least got a good job I presume?
Well for one, french are actually parasitic parademons from the future Mars that slaughtered the the populations of Venus and Mars and are now moving to conquer our world with various means. Only thing that kept them so far are the Lizardmen, ironically.
