Anyone played Broken Sword 5, any good?
I just realized that despite being super hype when they kickstarted it, I actually haven't launched it yet. It's maybe time to do so.

edit: Apparently I have idled 20 hours on it though. Overnight idling before idlemaster, those were dark times.

I played it back in July and enjoyed it.

It's not as good as 1 & 2, but if you're a fan of the series, it's definitely worth playing.

Wow, when I went to sleep I had around $1.50 in my Steam wallet and a bunch of animu cards on the market. When I woke up I had around $1.50 in my Steam wallet and a bunch of animu cards on the market. It's been a while since I've really sold anything on the market, but they are definitely not moving as fast as I remember.

Maybe you were undercut?

Well, he mentioned that they have numerous programmers and the likes attached on a contractual basis. I don't think any of said inhouse devs are going to disappear, since they're not doing contract work, it'd not even save a lot of money booting them, and the plan for Evolve is to support it for several years if possible. So we'll see I guess. :p
i mean if they go for like a league of legends (or dota i guess) thing of doing patches every month and adding shit all the time then it should be ok

the problem is always when devs hire extra people to crunch a project and then they find themselves paying salary for fifty or a hundred projectless employees. happened to obsidian after new vegas for instance

Eh, play as the monster. No need to worry about the first person shootering!
nah i like the shootering best. at least in l4d i liked that better. well i didn't really like the versus mode all that much in general

And does this mean no more jerk vampire zky? :(
who?

Gotta say, that list of yours gave me a headache. Too much beauty for one post, init. I think I should waifunize zky though.
i don't know what that means but pls don't -_-

Uh, I played one competitive in CS:GO and when I came back, I had earned about 21 euros. Mind you most of this was from TF2 items like the alien ones and some foil cards and stuff. But also some regular cards. The more popular the title is, the faster the card-river flows!

Ofcourse, you also have to factor in if the badge and it's unlocks in and of themselves are popular.

It sucks when that happends. But in this case it sounds like all of those have been contracted out, or atleast the majority. (Possibly with some help to be found within 2K itself as with Borderlands and Bioshock)

Fair enough! To each their own. I love how asynchronous it is though.

Uh, I, nevermind. Noone. You saw nothing!

My fastest match-win in Evolve is now one minute and 57 seconds. And I even Evolved before I killed them all.

Damn if it wasn't fucking glorious.

Mind you my longest was something like 25-30 minutes. :p
 
15 more days till HL2 will also be 10 years old.

I really wonder if Valve will do anything on that day.

They didn't do anything for Steam's 10th anniversary, they sure as hell won't do anything for this. Just keep quiet and torment the fandom like they've been doing for almost a decade.

If the hunter team doesn't have a trapper that knows his/her stuff, then the monster pretty much always wins.

Gratz. I hate being the monster. The one time I had to play, I mainly jumped against walls.

Lol. Sounds brilliant. I did the same my first match though. XD
Maybe we're talking about the same match, lol
Would've been an interesting coincidence.
I just realized that Liquid Entertainment will relaunch Batte Realms on GOG & Steam soon...

They are also working on their card game Battle Realms Legends in the meantime. All that is going to fund them Battle Realms 2. Can't wait.
OH GOD YES. I love that game!

what are you translating from.
My heart :(

What I was trying to say is that for those that like to sport pictures of a particular celebrity because of their beauty or likability. Why not sport a picture of a gafers instead? Like someone you admired?

I for once admired yakkue, docseuss and nbnt for various reasons. I wouldn't mind wearing one of their avatar for a day. Maybe we can have a "Gaffer Appreciation Day"

There are some pretty awesome people on GAF.

I feel like I'm talking out of my butt, I'm sorry if I still don't make any sense.

Brain is no good, is vey hard. brain is hard. finger is no gut. is hard. git gud.

Oh, speaking of git gud and The Witcher 3; Screw your 20% off. I've preordered the Collectors Edition :p
It may be nerdy as hell, but I fully intend to wear that damn wolf talisman.
You should watch some movies, some shows. Surely there will be someone that catches your eyes :p

My fingers truly need to got gud. I recently found out what Typing of the Dead was. I would fail at that game so hard Lol. I can't type fast enough.

My brother! I got the Collector Edition too! I'm going to sell my PS4 or PC copy to someone else since I already have the game. I can't wait. DAT Statue!

I've finished Shadowgate and got nine achievements. There are sixty in total, SIXTY. That's kinda insane for a game with only several hours in content. Most of those achievements are unlocked by playing the game on a specific difficulty setting or in a particular way.

How is it though to everyone that has played and what does it look like on PC?

Meh. Gameplay is limited and boring, and the fact that you can basically only play with randos in the alpha is the most idiotic thing ever.

It's... pretty enough, I guess? It's all atmospheric darkness so half the time you can't see shit.
Runs like it fell into a bucket of molasses too, because Cryengine.

How is the game? Do you like it? I was thinking of getting it. I never play a straight up point and click adventure game like it before. Very old school.

yeah i wonder how that works

if people is fired after games are released or they just get shitty contracts that end when release ends and don't get renewed

hopefully that won't be the case

You know you want it <3
um this is making me uncomfortable

not me. i'm more of a Braum, Leona, Taric, Velkoz, and Fiddlesticks kinda guy, with a side of Nami


it's been a long time since i had the urge to play league. this is a problem. so lets end this train of thought
 
I went through and checked my prices on my cards and one of the ones I was selling had a buy order for one cent less than I was selling it for. So I lowered it and sold it immediately. But with a couple of my cards there's nearly 40 cents difference between the lowest sale price and the highest buy order.

It was great. Great atmosphere, beautiful art, mostly fun puzzles. It's actually a bit simplistic as far as adventure games go, but it's understandable since it's a NES game (I'm more used to the likes of Monkey Island and the Sierra adventure games).
 
It's not like you get a minute-long video EXPLAINING THE CLASS the first time you play it, right? =p

Indeed, that's what kills me. They get a video explaining everything and yet they play like it's something else. I've seen trappers never using the dome or the harpoon traps, crazy stuff.
