I read manga more than watch anime, hence why I'm a regular of the manga OT.
In other news, I two strikes on unfun games with Never Alone and Knight Squad. Here's to hoping I don't get an out.

Are Steam-keys regionlocked now?
I cant even redeem my Gemini Heroes Reborn Key from Groupees.
Might be. I cant redeem Gemini Heroes...

The Mana series (and the SaGa series too, I suppose) and tons of cool, semi-obscure one-offs (or two-offs) that I guess will never get ported like Brave Fencer Musashi and, if we include stuff they published, Bushido Blade, plus a bunch of SNES games like the Quintet-developed games and a couple others I can think of.

XCOM 2's Alien Hunters DLC is out now. The hunters apparently get a turn after every one of your solder's turns which I don't think I can deal with.
I am not prepared.

Yup, gonna pick up FFX later today. It seems like a pretty solid port, and regional priced very nicely here.

The entire Dragon Quest lineup would be nice since they all have mobile ports too. Now that they realize there is money to be had with these FF ports we could very well see them all pretty quickly except 7 as it's based off the 3ds remake which isn't even out in America yet let alone phones.
and Secret of Evermore plz

Keys of the cut version, no thanks. I mean I've activated locked keys in the past using VPN but this ain't Wolfenstein, not worth risking my account. Also the dev promised to remove the lock months ago and the store page doesn't even mention that Germans get a different version. Shady af.

Pick one
Yeah at $12 it's insta buy territory for me. It's almost the same price as that FF IV sequel.
Shame they didn't add cards though, would've been nice to make a buck back.

Groupees Be mine 25 was pretty good. It even had a game on my wishlist, The Masterplan.

I watched an anime once.
It had this guy with a red coat and there was this other guy who had a coffin full of guns.
I can't remember it's name, but that's the extent of my knowledge of the japanese cartoons known as anime.

The android ports of DQ are all in portrait mode, though. Not sure if they rebalanced the game to work with that layout.

Too bad I wasted $3 that could've gone towards this.
And now anime. FML.

Personally, I prefer the one that has a shrimp in a red coat and a five year old giant metal knight. They like to clap.

Just read the Steam thread where this is discussed and it's really sad that stuff is still activation locked without any reason

yeaaaaaah thats the one. There used to be a channel on Sky where this would come on at like 2 am in the morning. Always thought it looked cool and would make a good videogame.
I think I'd watch more anime if they were like Westerns

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.
Copy that. The new version will have a toggle that will let you choose if you want to watch the video in SD or HD (where available).
Do you guys have a profile on My Anime List? It's a pretty cool network if you enjoy tracking your "progress" on animes, cataloging what you've already completed, arranging your backlog, and it work both for animes and mangas.
Here's my profile if you want to throw some shade at my bad taste.

here's my cool anime gif
kill la kill is the bestest

4 > 1 = 3 >>> 5
4 - best combat mechanics, looks great, characters aren't amazing but the story is solid and i enjoyed it. most of all it's the one that nails the combination of systems and has some really interesting new mechanics and systems (radars, coordinated attacks, mortars). the combat is so much fun
1 - best story of the series and really cool characters, as well as the best atmosphere and setting. the combat is really outdated but it's entertaining. i would love to see this game remade with modernized combat
3 - really bad story although the characters are pretty alright. i used to love this game's story when i was a kid but playing it not long ago left me pretty frightened at some seriously dark things that happen in that game that shouldn't have been brushed off as shitty as they did. like seriously. the combat in this one is pretty fucking bad but there's some cool stuff like ejecting ppl out of their mechs and special mechs and stuff. it also has pretty good atmosphere and it has amazing music and it has the internet thingie which is super fun too. AND it does the two separate stories that is mindblowing to me to this day. honestly this game has some big problems at parts but it had some awesome ideas
5 - i hated the story and hated the gameplay, having a billion soldiers just didn't work really out for me and the story just felt like it didn't make any sense. i blame the translation for that but it's just a boring game that i completely hated in almost every aspect of it. specially since it's very cinematic and everything but doesn't manage to capture the feeling of political intrigue of the other 3 that do most of the work with talking heads. it's also a really disappointing game considering i waited like a decade for it
haven't played 2 since the same group that translated 5 translated 2 and i'm not gonna bother.
so yeah i can see why someone wouldn't like 4, i remember not liking it at all when it was released, thinking the characters were boring and slow but i played the whole series again like a year or two ago and i just loved 4. it's the most refined combat in the series and going from that to the really shallow combat in 5 was really a bummer, specially with the weirdo story. maybe fm5 is alright if you can speak japanese but i'm only one argie
kill la kill is the bestest
i love doing these, here's mine
http://myanimelist.net/profile/zkylon
my personal order isBut 4 is the worst one..... imo... I mean it's still a good game but the others are just better... except for FM Alternative and Evolved of course

Oh, I didn't realise it included more than just the titular hunters. This is good.
It could've been Brotherhood! But yes.

lol I was actually just testing some other stuff relating to pressing "Not interested" on something, and that happened to be the page I was on when I took the screenshot. So really the ironic answer is that I was on that page because I'm not interested in Ark.
Interestingly enough: Ark is the game with the highest percentage of people not satisfied with the game's performance as according to Enhanced Steam's performance surveys. Must run like crap.
I don't have one. And I don't really feel like making more accounts for stuff.

Wait, but the store page states that cards are in.
Oh hey this made me realize you could actually get a steam key by redeeming that other key you get. Reading is good.
Cards must not be live yet, then. IdleMaster isn't idling the game, which I assume is because of that.
I know that alex is doing it for the joke but it really aint that complicated
theres a lot of systems to keep in mind in order to master the game but it has a nice curve and it keeps it fun and addicting troughout

wouldn't be the first time a game's cards weren't activated at launch
after the marketplace changes I gave up worrying about cards though

What website is it that compares Steam regional pricing again?
You're killing me, Salsa. It's Dan Ryckert, not Alex "The Wolf" Navarro! The latter is in an entirely separate Giant Bomb studio.
And as an aside, Civ6 could really use a mature mode, going by the comments in the reveal thread.
