Well it looks like Steins;Gate won't show up on Steam for a while because of contracts:

Yeah, it's a shame. It obviously won't stop me from acquiring the game eventually but it's their loss. I could see this one being very popular during sales time.

It's amazing how, after this many botched releases, Alienware still hasn't come up with a better solution to distribute those keys (especially when it results in the site going to a crawl and nobody understanding what's happening). They'd be better off doing a Godankey.com giveaway and make it timed entry/raffle.

All they care about is harvesting your information and getting you to sign up for their site, tho =p

Please quote for 2 8-bit Commando keys. I have no idea if these have been redeemed, but I'm confident at least one of them is good!


Key 1 - XQTKQ-N69E3-EG5ML
Key 2 - 83893-QYQW2-7M4I3

Edit: nvm, i messed up the hidden quote thing, so here they are

I really need to finish the tutorials and get my teeth into this game.. All i've been hearing about are good things. Though i'm guessing it is very hard to learn it.

You best bet it to seek out YouTube tutorials. They're a bit of a time-sink, but I've found them to be the most effective way to wrap your head around the incredibly deep Paradox titles.

The two top personalities are Eviscerator03 and Arumba. Both are great, but I prefer Eviscerator personally.

I've always wanted to play ck2 properly, but don't understand the game at all..I spent close to 2hrs trying to arrange marriages for my sons, and some dukes or some shit, and my pervy priest or healer or something.

As you can see, I understand the game completely.
 
The mystery game I won was Metro 2033 which I already own so I'm re-gifting it. Thanks anyway, anonymous benefactor!

Bit OT, but that long-awaited Ninox Aurora mouse is on MassDrop. Was intending to wait for reviews, considering all the set-backs the development had, but that price is so tempting.

The concern I have is whether the surface will have peeling issues similar to the matte surface of the Zowie FK'14. Had to RMA the Zowie and the replacement was just as bad.

Last week I found physical RE6 for 5 euros at a store. Today I found RE: Revelations for the same price at the same place.

I love Steamworks.

The in-game tutorials are out of date at best and broken at worsts (or were last I checked).

Online tutorials might be a better choice.

Thats japanese contracts for you...

I worked with a german anime publishers before and seriously. I can totally see how the talk looked like. JastUSA asked if they can sell it on Steam to generate more profit, Nitro+ says no. JastUSA explains how big Steam is in the west, Nitro+ says no. JastUSA argues how great that opportunity is, Nitro+ says no.

I swear sometimes... this thread seems specifically aimed at giving me a fucking aneurysm.

To be fair, you're making it too damn easy for us.
I hadn't played The Witcher in a while but I was looking at some files and I just noticed that the game's save folder has currently over 4.41 GB... Those are some big ass saves. I'm going to delete them and only leave the more recent manual + autosave data.
I'm a stern believer that you should never overwrite a save. Last time I played Skyrim I panicked and quit after realising I had over 600 saves.

Especially because I wanted to find a specific character in those saves - Wish it was grouped for individual characters / playthroughs... Good thing we've got mods to do that for us though.

Speaking of mods: I've been making my way through STEP and GEMS, and I've downloaded... 50, 60? mods, and I'm nowhere near done. Damn you Nexusmods, damn you to hell.

Yeah I noticed that too years ago. Witcher sucks in regards to save file sizes.

Not as funny as DC2 but Start Windows and Exit Windows are basically cutscenes and Empty Recycle Bin wins as the best one there.

I can't find any render of that regina full like that. First time I have ever seen it now cropped for box art.
No clue where the Trex came from.

I really need to play more CK2. I always feel a little intimidated at how much there is to learn but can never set aside some time to just sit and relax while taking my time with it. Same with Europa. Took me a while even with Civ but now I'm pretty much attached to the thing

super long so snipped and flipped

That's so incredibly retro, I love it lol. It's cheesy and corny at the same time, but "That's disgusting..." is just great.

Honestly reminds me that I wanted to undertake a massive theme overhaul and make my UI very Deus Ex-esque, but I never did quite get off my arse. Does anyone know some good themes / places with stuff like alternate sounds, skins, etcetera?

I miss when devs did that. They stopped a while ago.

Huh.
RobotEX got released yesterday, is 60% off.
Haven't heard anything about it.


IndieGameStand has LetterQuest:Grimm's Journey 20% off (4$)
They also have 80% off Shadow of War (1.5$) which will give a key when greenlit
