is the shadow warrior dlc worth it?

I started Fallout New Vegas for the first time. Should I do any of the DLC, since they are available since the beginning, or wait until I do more of the main quest?

wait

the dlcs are pretty hard (specially dlcs 1, 3 and 4) and actually have some nice hooks to the main story

so midway through or 75% done would be a good time to do them. the game makes it pretty obvious when it's about to end so no need to look for guides, just wait for ominous thing finally being close to happening and you'll be there

 

[Jawmuncher]

I bought the humble bundle I don't see 3 extra copies for friends though.

I see my extra copies. did you gift them the entire bundle? that might be why.

look below all the keys that are meant for you and right below them there should be a thingie that says "here are the other risk of rain keys you dumbo"

Never, ever heard of the game. Card prices are (still) high. Yes. No?

 

[Dr Dogg]

Well after what Nabs said I restarted the client to check for coupons and had a booster pack for The Room which sold instantly on the market for 27p profit. Then found I still have a tab open before I left for work with the Steam thread still in gaming that I'm going to keep pinned forever and ever. So today hasn't been a complete kick in the happy sacks.

 

[Bubbavelli]

Since we're talking about New Vegas (hehehe), does it end immediately after the final quest a la pre dlc Fallout 3?

Oh I just got my free Space Warp key from that Indie Kings promotion. Check your mails.

 

[Uzzy]

Ah, that Football Manager realism. Half my defence is injured, we just lost to the U-21 side and Rooney's already annoyed. Gotta love it.

 

[Robert J. Sullivan]

it's really weird to play binding of isaac with a decent and constant framerate

 

[jshackles]

It looks like Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is getting Handsome Jack as a playable character in an upcoming piece of DLC.

Source

For those who already picked up the Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Season Pass, the Handsome Jack Doppelganger Pack is included, but for players that haven’t, it will also be sold individually for $9.99.

The way they're doing this is so confusing. The way they've worded it, it almost sounds like it'll only be in the season pass if you already have the season pass. But if you buy the season pass now, you won't get this DLC and you'll have to pay $10 for it.

I'll wait for the GOTY edition with all of the DLC, which will probably never happen.

 

[Gianni Merryman]

For those who are not aware of it - I totally forgot about it until I checked it out on Steam store -, "Viscera cleanup detail: Shadow warrior" is free purchasing "Shadow warrior".

 

[Dr Dogg]

Since we're talking about New Vegas (hehehe), does it end immediately after the final quest a la pre dlc Fallout 3?

Been a while but if I recall you can play the 4 Story DLC packs in New Vegas at any time (they each give the recommended level when checking them out in the Pip-Boy). I'm pretty certain once you finish the final mission then that's its, Ron Pearlman comes on and narates what the gang got up to and where they are now and the credits roll. There's 4 different routes to the end of the game so the replayability is there.

Ah, that Football Manager realism. Half my defence is injured, we just lost to the U-21 side and Rooney's already annoyed. Gotta love it.

Life imitating art. You could give him a raise and he'll be happy as a pig in the proverbial. Vidic was always sulky when I managed Man Utd and none of the squad had confidence in him as a captain. But putting Ferdinand as the skipper upset the dressing room. Damned if you do...

 

[dani_dc]

Oh, so this is why I couldn't find the thread anyway.

SMT I, II, if..., Nocturne, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha 1 and 2, Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers, Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2, the list goes on and on.



Especially since it has all of the GBA improvements and the really good PS1 music.

I'd b e happy with any SMT game, but especially with Nocturne.

 

[Bubbavelli]

I might die commuting home from school so I'll raffle off my steam account from beyond the grave

 

[Grief.exe]

As I've always said, getting these old games is great, but getting Persona V day one would be healthier for the platform overall.

Even then its probably betterbetter not to even get it by that time cause the community will most likely be dead. For me season passes just damages the game, don't even want to touch the game cause of it most of the time

 

[Sini]

Rebirth is fucking awesome. Is it just me or is it kinda easier now that it's not in flash? It took me like 9 hours to beat the original and I did it only after I unlocked the second character. I just beat Rebirth second try. Then again I did get some pretty sweet drops. Not a complaint at all just wondering what others thought.

Anyone else think normal difficulty is much easier than old Isaac? I played original for 10 hours and never got a Mom kill and I usually died in first 3 floors. But now I can reliably get to the Mom(foot) almost every run and dodge most projectiles.

 

[zkylon]

yea risk of rain is pretty great

too bad it released last year, if not it would've made my list for sure

As I've always said, getting these old games is great, but getting Persona V day one would be healthier for the platform overall.

it's not healthy for me if you keep teasing me like this T_T

also yes i'm down for all megaten games ever on steam

specially persona 4 golden

double specially

Ya, like you, I'll be getting the goty version which will only include 75% of all dlc.

The fact that there is someone working on a fishing simulator for PC makes me happy. It's cheap too.

 

[Tellaerin]

Yep. Once it's over, it's over. Make sure you finish up any dangling sidequests before the endgame.

I'll be all over this. We need a new fishing controller asap.

I thought you could play the DLC missions after finishing the main game...

Good to know, I was just about to choose what I gather is the best ending

Spoiler

but now I think I'll play the DLC missions before that instead.

How are you finding the number of goals being scored, Uzzy?

We know it always takes a patch or two to iron out launch-time bugs and balance issues, but a lot of the feedback on the SI forums seems to be that there are an unrealistic amount of goals with FM15 so far.

The new tactics screen sounds like it takes some getting used to as well (and may be a step or two backwards in regard to usability).

When Riley disapeared that's about when I stopped playing. I think I only had a couple of more hours to go to finish it but I needed the hard drive space

Spoiler

for BLOPS 2

 

[Rhaknar]

So you're saying... it became a ghost?

no he didnt die or anything (yet at least) they just stopped acknowledging him, like I said, they just forget about him lol. quite lame, especially after all the Call of Doge hype

new nvidia drivers out, do we need to do all the SLI settings all over again with new drivers Doogie?

God damn it Gray Matter is so fucking janky.
I'm stuck at the end of a chapter again because the game won't let me do something.

I've done everything the fucking plot needed...

why we moved to Community ?

 

[Dr Dogg]

Actually I'm having this loopy idea of buying a new GPU just to get a free copy of Unity. True I do need something for my server/render/workstation but I was planing on only spending £100 tops on a knackered 7970 for the goddly OpenCL performance but a 970 might be too tempting as some of the silly prices I've seen them going for. Then again I don't think most companies accept magic beans as payment.

new nvidia drivers out, do we need to do all the SLI settings all over again with new drivers Doogie?

Just do an Express Install and then go and reenable SLI in Nvidia Control Panel. Driver Updates have always disabled it for me and had me scratching my head until I went to check and yep sure it was that updating disabled SLI. You've learnt the hard part now.

Holy shit I found it.
I had to talk to someone else in a completely different location to basically just say "thank you" after something happened, and then Gray Matter automatically did the thing I was trying to do...

That's some really fucking horrible design.

Those reports of coil whine tho

My bottom 780 squeals like a pig at about 40-50% load no matter what PSU I pair it with so I'm kind of conditioned to it. Considering it will be sitting in a R4 wich keeps things stupidly slient the majority of the time I think I could deal with another oinker.

k i got a pretty cool one from long live the queen

i think it looks good

i also bought one with like cassette tapes from gone home that looks good but i like the patterns on this one and i also like the silhouette thing. so mysterious! you can be all like wait who's that? is that zkylon? zkylon is super loli omg. etc etc. that's the desired effect anyways
