I've been playing Wasteland 2 myself. Got myself a few achievements, but they don't register until after you quit. Got hit with a brownout, my computer restarted, now I gotta redo some achievements. Fuck that peace on the rails one.
Edit: And I got 'em back after loading some old saves and redoing them. Whew!
Weird. Both my 360 stick and xbox 360 wireless controllers work natively with all the Falcom games on steam. I don't have TitS installed to see exactly the settings but on TitS Second Chapter there's an Input tab in the configuration. You choose the controls there.
Hope you can fix it, you definitely need to try it

Fallout 4 perk system is stressful. Level 24 and I have 6 perk points just lying in wait because I don't know what I want to put them into.

That happened to me too, I just put them in bloody mess. You can always add them to the base stats
Good to hear it, I was scratching my head because my 360 controller worked when I first played FC.
Though I switched to KB+M immediately after

I find this element of almost all games to be stressful, but I'm unassertive and indecisive at the best of times in real life, too.
RPGs with many levelling up choices to be made riddle me with anxiety (first world gamer problems), so I have to be in the mood for them. Analysis paralysis often leads me to leaning on guides and wikis for direction with my choices, which I often end up regretting (not the choice, just that I didn't make it).
Banked almost all my Griffa tokens in Mad Max due to this, to then discover that when you cash them in, you have to use ALL of them, or you can't exit that particular screen. Went from weakling Max to maxed-Max in minutes. Good times.
i really dislike both the perks and the interface to select them
i never feel like i'm building up to a character type, specially early on it just seems like i'm crossing some requirements that should probably be always unlocked in the first place (like crafting and the settlement stuff)

Another day, another missed opportunity to put Life is Strange on sale.
My torment is eternal.
I guess I'm not playing FO4 any time soon. Nice draw distance, at least. (That has to be the framerate-killer, right?)

You forgot to embed. Fixed that for you.
80% Bad hitboxes 20% pointless agility stat.
someone sang that at karaoke where i go last week
It's a shame about having no way to respec outside of console commands, I feel like I've wasted a couple of points.
It's interesting because after 6 hours with Fallout 4 on my GTX 970/ i5 4460 / 16GB RAM, I have yet to dip below 60 fps with everything set to ultra with the exception of godrays at low.
Such a wacky ass game...

Yup... Weird.
I just want a Bethesda game with all the fun bugs, and none of the bad ones. Y'know, (Skyrim examples) giants launching enemies into the stratosphere, random dragon skeletons decorating villages, NPCs being dumb--the good stuff.

I'm not really a music guy but I've been to maybe 50 or 60 concerts, way more if you count individual bands playing at day-long festivals. Are you guys who haven't been to many concerts young or rural? I didn't live in a big area and I didn't grow up having a particularly lot of money, but I still managed to go to a ton!

I have maybe been to 25 and I am 26. I love going but some of them are so damn expensive. I saw Coldplay in high school and I think it was 90$ in the upper level of an arena. Luckily most of the bands I listen to now are less known and much cheaper.

50 or 60 concerts... and not a music guy? I dunno if the math works out.
I've been to a grand total of zero concerts... I must be an anti-music guy. Video game symphonies, or classical stuff in general, would be the only things I'd consider going to. Maybe.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
I get the impression Bethesda would really like to solve their whole scenario design problem by technical means rather than hiring a creative writing team and integrating them into the design process from the start. I'm guessing it's far more appealing from a management/design point of view to try and solve those problems with more voice acting, new dialog interface and a neat but meaningless town building mechanic, since you can do those things laterally to the main work.
I imagine their whole process is heavily slanted towards world building and area design, then quest design and then finally writing. I'm also guessing other RPG devs basically do it the opposite way, with writing and scenario work preceding final level design. That might be giving, say, Obsidian too much credit though.
It's interesting because I definitely get the impression that they're aware it's an issue with their games but they also don't seem to get why it's an issue or how to fix it. Of course, it's understandable that a developer would be resistant to a solution that might call for totally changing their work flow and hiring outside help when they're obviously so successful...not fixing those issues.

Lol, I came across a location in Fallout 4 very early on in the game and without getting into spoilers ended up clearing out the location because the person there tried to scam me. Went back 10 hours later for a quest and suddenly the leader is alive again, presumably so he can talk to me.
It's weird because the dialogue is different so it's definitely intended to just be able to come across him without the context of the quest.

I haven't played FO4 yet so I can't speak to the town building thing there, but town building was one of two major questlines of Morrowind's Bloodmoon expansion and it was dope as hell there so, conceptually at least, I'm very pro Bethesda taking another swing at the cat.

I don't know if it's been posted yet, but I preordered Fallout 4 from GMG and I got the DOTA announcer pack today after starting up DOTA.

I live near a big city and I've gone to 0 concerts ._.
Eh, funky hitboxes like that aren't really a "get good" thing. But Dark Souls 2 has a bunch of those.

In other news, Invisible, Inc. is pretty legit. Hopefully the Winter Sale has it at $5-10 again.

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.
I haven't been to too many concerts, but mostly it's because I grew up in literally the middle of nowhere. The only concerts I saw were literally several hundred miles from my house at the closest, and I wasn't exactly picky about it being "mainstream" music. However, I went to two different day long music festivals were I saw some great acts such as Moby, Coolio, Trapt, and several others. I was a huge fan of the Violent Femmes from a very early age and somehow got the opportunity to see them three times before they split up a few years back. Although I hear they're back together now so that's kinda cool.
The city-building stuff in FO4 is surprisingly fun but incredibly shallow. It's not "Skryim meets Minecraft" or anything, but it's whole-heartedly not terrible.

I just recently went to my first one so there's always hope!
Thanks for the birthday wishes guys. Today went pretty well.
I'd totally go to concerts more if i didn't have an anxiety problem and being poor. I regret not going to a kpop concert earlier this year when i had the chance... Ya'll know how rare those are here?! I am going next year for sure though.
Redheads are the best doe.
always ♥
it's true, you should ask him yourself
wow ok

I had a ton of fun with Hero Siege.
Not really. He did got hit. It looks weird because of this attack's specific animation.
Somewhat serious question, should I get the Delorean DLC for Rocket League or become John Romero's bitch (Daikatana) with the $2.75 worth of GMG credit that's going to expire in a week?
I played Daikatana way back when and did not like it but I am morbidly curious to see it again.
edit: nevermind holy shit I somehow have Daikatana already, what the fuck
