With the Capcom bundle I checked my humble account and noticed some unredeemed keys.
I have a key for this Overlord game and am wondering if anybody knows it? Worth adding to my steam library?
There's also Red Faction Guerilla, which I heard positive things about?
Thanks for the advice.

well like, think of it as a game that tried to do something it wasn't prepared to do. so the end result is a game that strives to be meaningful and doesn't quite get there, but you can tell it tried. it has like a good story and a good setting and it really puts you in the robot shoes of this frontier mechanic dude with all the tedium involved of like feeling like you have to go walk to work and every mission starts with "something broke down, go repair it, btw aliens". it's just that as a third person shooter is pretty basic

Is it recommended to play the first two games? How do they compare?

i'm a fan of those types of games but i can see it not being for everyone but cmon, 1 dollar

game got HEART

Well, money isn't the issue as much as time is. My backlog is already big enough and i end up like dropping a bunch of decent games simply because of the lack of it.

I mean, it's not that i'm unwilling to play games of questionable quality if they can give me an amazing and unique experience in return, some are even my absolute favorites like D1 and DP.* It's just that this is the first time i'm hearing someone talking that way about LP3.

*I even enjoyed Ride to Hell Retribution unironically. Well, partially unironic at least.


Mhm. Guess i'll at least give it a try, unless it happens to release at a really bad time.

Is it recommended to play the first two games? How do they compare?
i don't think so, i didn't play either of them (well, i played the lost planet 1 demo a whole bunch cos that shit was cool) and felt like i got a complete experience

Well, money isn't the issue as much as time is. My backlog is already big enough and i end up like dropping a bunch of decent games simply because of the lack of it.

*I even enjoyed Ride to Hell Retribution unironically. Well, partially unironic at least.
i wouldn't say it's amazing and unique but it's interesting. like, it totally pulls off putting you in that place and i just like the idea of playing as a blue collar dude just doing his job and being friendly to people around him. it felt refreshing to me.

it kind of reminds me of dead rising 2, i just like good, simple guys that want to solve things in reasonable ways as main characters. it's still a videogame so they get to be cool and kill stuff and make fun of the awkward nerdy upgrades guy or whatever but i enjoy their characters

but i don't wanna oversell it cos it's not deadly premonition, it's just a half delivered good idea of a game trapped in a weird pseudo open world thing with boring shooting

to me it was interesting, but i like thinking about games that half make it more than most people i think

the things I don't have are in the top tier of the bundle as well as the BTA. Think I'll do the $15 tier and figure something out for the rest of the games.

wat wrong thread oops

It's not like GAF is always ontopic anyways. Really there is no issue posting your loveletter to Se7ensword in here

Isn't this a bit of an oxymoron? When they're cool and kill stuff and make fun out of nerds, then they don't sound like reasonable people and more like Schoolbullys.

I think i understood what you mean. Maybe i'll give it a shot when i'm finished with the FFX rererelease.

Uhh yeah I want DMC4 and RE6 but I bought the past bundle and literally everything else was in it.
So yeah putting those two in the $15 tier was mean.

Both games are worth adding to your account. They are both really fun games.
 
Blood & Wine impressions; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1JxCdDZLuM


I hope Blood and Wine will be good. This is the last we will ever see of Geralt. Like Snake, and Natah Drake, Geralt is another iconic character we're going to say goodbye to. I hope the story will live up to its potential. HOS was well received. The hype for this expansion is unreasonable now. People are expecting greatness. Is it even able to deliver on such hype?

well like, it's a videogame, so you're def gonna kill stuff

the making fun of nerds, it just lasts a little while and then they become besties and the nerd gets his heroic moment and his comic relief moment and whatnot. again it's not like shakespeare but it's closer to it than fucking max payne 3 lol

that's your back of the box quote lol

I think i understood what you mean. Maybe i'll give it a shot when i'm finished with the FFX rererelease.
it's not super long, there's a bunch of filler quests you can just ignore and you'll finish it at like 8 hours or so i think.

i was listening to an old patrik klepek's podcast about the whole tracer butt debacle and gita was like "it's not even a good butt, it's like a simple flat ass" and i felt angry at her so i think i'm gonna have to thank blizzard for the two weeks time off
 
Jesus fucking christ how long are Cacpcom going to wait until they actually drop the price on Revelaitions 2? It's still like -40% at best.

I actually liked Max Payne 3's writing. "My life sucks, everything's gone to shit, just let me sleep, go away, why does this world curse me so much, just go away, nobody understands me anyways".

You don't really often see characters that don't give a shit about anythings that's happening, even if it was rather emo.

Altho i still preffered Remedy's. That had those awesome over the top melodramatic metaphors for everything.

"My Heart was broken like the cold snowflakes under my dirty shoes,
i know i shouldn't walk down this path, but i can't stop like i just bought a new pair of shoes from Adidas."

Wow Disney pulling the plus in Disney Infinity is crazy. Makes sense though, the series has been on clearance numerous times and not even Star Wars boosted it up very much. Shame since their figures are rather nice. I already have the Tron ones though, so I'm good.

Makes more sense now as to why they cut PC support earlier this year.

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.
Be Mine 25 will get a limited pre-order, could start any minute I guess? https://groupees.com/bm25

Confirmed: http://store.steampowered.com/app/460910/ and http://store.steampowered.com/app/324650/

Think I'll do it, want Gemini* and I haven't bought a Groupees bundle this year yet and it's the 25th so it must be something special, right?

*http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/quick-look-gemini-heroes-reborn/2300-10969/

I haven't bought anything from Groupees since September but I was also wanting to play Gemini so I think I might bite on this. Additionally, since this is the first time I've logged in to Groupees in a long while, I had almost 30 Steam keys waiting for me for games I'd mostly never heard of before. Guess I'm still firmly in the +1 camp, since I activated them all.

I don't think it'll affect anything out, or what they have the rights for. It doesn't take much to through a old game on GOG. However I don't see them doing anymore games themselves. Will more than likely do nothing more than license out their stuff.
 
I don't mind $3 starting price for a preorder, but there are a heck of a lot better top down shooters than A-gents looks, and Gemini would be so far down my to-play FPS list I'd never get to it. I'm waiting until there are more hints. If I miss the preorder so be it.

The last time a Be Mine knocked it out the park for me seems ages ago. Bundlestars and Humble are probably the best atm.

Agreed. Bundlestars getting the "named" jank and indie games and Humble's general uptick in quality as well as the curiosity of the Monthly are my best bets.

So when should I buy all the Infinity packs on Steam? Will they be pulled before the Summer sale?
