Still, it's quite strange to give away 8,000+ keys for a game that was just Kickstarted a few months ago. Part of me thinks it's because they're running a bit low on funds and wanted to flood the market to get more investment/pump up the player numbers.
Not my build for my game lol
I know that unlock many option in game, but being computer nerd again in my RPG is meh..
2nd playthrough, maybe
Is it on sale? I'm thinking of getting into isometric RPGs and Dragonfall seems like the perfect game to do it.
Nope, but the Autumn Sale is only a couple of weeks away.
Its on sale at weekend sales few weeks ago, you missing out.. but probably you gonna see similar deal again pretty soon on Gog's current fall sale or steamstore fall/winter sale.

so let me get this straight. Bethesda released a new Fallout with an old engine that 'may' contain a pretty good amount of bugs/glitches....
....and it sets records for concurrent players?
Fantastic.

I wanted to direct you to the NeoGAF OT for more impressions but there isn't one? That's a real shame, the game's interesting, big and polished enough to deserve it, imo.
A 2D mystery adventure about robots set in the near future. Classic Look/Use/Talk/Use Item interface, basically every hotspot in the game gets several unique lines, light puzzles and extensive dialogue. Can be played with mouse, keyboard or controller... several different endings depending on your choices and how well you do interacting with other characters in the game...
I recommend it, but check out some footage beforehand and see if it's your cup of tea in terms of early 90s Japanese adventure gameplay systems (think Snatcher, Policenauts) and the chunky pixel art aesthetic.
Giantbomb has a QL of the first hour up if you want to see it in action.
Yep. The major difference of course is your class carries over, and the classes in the Final Cut aren't consistently available in the original three games as I understand. If your issue with the second was the level design it won't help. If it was finding a fun class that you grew with this will will fix that right up.
I'm playing a Constructor because summoner type classes are my cup of tea.
Or vice versa. If the controller is off when starting you need to restart.
Your install size might mean you don't have the high resolution texture pack installed. It's free DLC like Skyrim did it.

Wow, didn't know that Zodiac: Orcanon Odyssey was also coming to PC. It has already been greenlit!!
For those who don't know about this one:

It releases on iOS this Friday, so I guess it won't take too long for the PC version to come out. Here's NeoGAF's OT.

For some reason, it seemed like someone should quote this...
Of course you think it's better. You like the opposite of me in everything it seems. :lol
Transistor never really worked as an ARPG for me because of the unlock structure, upgrade structure, and mostly because it was designed around the turn mechanic.
As such, Bastion was automatically better, being a true ARPG with no other way to play it and nothing impinging on the core design.
Furthermore, I enjoyed Bastion's soundtrack much more than Transistor's, though that's not to say Transistor's wasn't solid... just nowhere near as memorable to me. Darren Korb is good, but even the track with Ashley Barrett vocals couldn't compare to the majority of the Bastion soundtrack (especially Setting Sail/Coming Home).
It was in a really cheap Indiegala bundle and you probably missed out if you're deciding you're interested now.

Well, not really. I've already played for 10 hours.

i also didn't care much for transistor. i thought the game was super stylish but neither combat system was as enjoyable as bastion's and i felt the general narrative and structure was a lot less appealing to me, i really missed the home base aspect from bastion
i thought the "equipment" system was kind of clever and interesting, but the combat itself was just too fast and imprecise and the turn base stuff just felt gimmicky
oh well

Lately I got the Souls itch and went back to finish the two remaining DLC areas, Frozen place I finished already. Short verdict, not on par with better areas. The icy fog made sense in the "story" but lead to a underwhelming start. It didn't help that enemies were very uninspired and felt unnaturally bullet spongey. There were a few interesting short areas but it soon got very been there done that. The first boss, "Ice Tiger" I did not really enjoy much as well. Piqued towards the end after getting into the palace, man that was a sight. But such a shame that there was no real meat to it. Basically just a safe zone leading to the actual boss. That was very... unique let's say, hah. So much chaos I never witnessed before in any souls game. Good Lord, the mayhem! I went in with a human summon and to be honest, I have no clue how to do that alone.
Now I went to Brume Tower and I instantly fell in love with it. Glorious visuals and level design. The enemies as well I prefer to Frozen. Good stuff.

Good point, I didn't install them. I've only played the first "level" to the first town so far.
20GBs of textures!! Wow.
So a few months ago when I had decided to buy the Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition (NOTE: FOR PC) the only place I could buy it from was the Beth Store (because they randomly restocked and I was lucky enough to grab one). So the problem is they don't ship to Australia, so I have to get it shipped to a US shipping address (I used comGateway) who will then ship it to me in Australia, and this costs a lot of dollarinos.
So comGateway tells me it's arrived there and they're ready to ship it here. $90 AUD please. Jesus. Alright. So I do it. Accept. Confirm. Gimme.
And then, after I confirm and pay and everything's done and they're processing it to be shipped, I see something next to my order. "View merchant invoice". Yeah why not, I know what the item is but let's just see it so I can get even more excit-
nope.
$240 AUD for a plastic phone case and a game I can't play. I don't have the money to throw around for sending it back and I don't have the patience in trying to deal with their customer support (which took exactly 22 days to respond to my ticket asking the simplest question in existence). I'd probably die trying to sort this out. And i can't send it back because I WANT the pip-boy edition, and they're obviously out of stock now so it's too late to do anything.
I don't even know if I can afford to buy it again but digitally. I can't even justify the GMG's asking price with the discount given how fucking broke I am and how much I spent on the damn CE including shipping.
TLDR; LOCAL AUSTRALIAN BOY RUINED BY BETHESDA STORE.

But seriously... that sucks. Sorry man.
Are you sure Beth sent the wrong thing to comGateway? Or is it possible comGateway mixed some stuff up? Or that the order just has an incorrect invoice but contains the right version?
Probably not, so in that case... someone, gift this dude a Fallout 4 code. :3

I try it again. Anyone could help me out getting a 20$ or 25$ online Steamwallet code?
There's no way. The shipping label has a code that is tied to my account on comGateway, in addition the code is checked and uploaded online so the customer can also check to make sure. THEN there's the fact that I've supplied them with the tracking number so they knew exactly which order was mine even if they messed up with the codes (which... doesn't happen). Beth done fucked up.
I've been waiting years for this game. And regarding money, I had saved up enough for the most expensive edition. I never imagined this would happen.

He knew before taking the role that his time was short. It was one of the reasons why he did it. His kids loved Street Fighter and the kids could spend a lot of time with him on the set.

Geez. Why don't MMO makers ever see sense until it's too late? "People are totally gonna pay subscription fees in this day and age! ...Well, I guess we can try free-to-play but we can do it on our own! ...Okay I guess we can put it on the number one PC platform."
They must all see themselves as Thor and Steam as Loki or something. YOU know the image macro.
Crappy Role Playing Games?
They're just milking the early adopters for as much as they can get before they move on to getting money out of the free-to-play crowd.
I paid monthly for Elder Scrolls Online before it went no-sub, so I'm part of the problem. lol

The thing I didnt get about subscription models is, that actually server costs became cheaper and cheaper, but the subscription model often didnt get cheaper since WoW.
The strange thing is, at least here in Germany, the subscription for UO was like 10DM (about 5) in the 90s. Then DAoC came and they pushed it a bit higher. Then WoW came...

You're reading it backwards. Of course they know they can do that, but the other way nets them more money upfront. The route you've drawn let's them get more money and in the process of each transition gets its name back in the zeitgeist to everyone who wasn't in each prior step. It's like when games on Steam hold off on adding trading cards until down the line when they can then add them to help reinvigorate sales.
Didn't know this was on Steam :O
(Joke of course). Yeah, XIII-2 is pretty good, it fixed a lot of the weak things from XIII, my only complaints is that it had lower production values and the story was beyond ridiculous as they had to resort to time travel and all that stuff to connect it to the main game (I mean, XIII didn't need a sequel IMO, but oh well...).
