Also, they just added controller support a few weeks ago which is a pretty big improvement in the UI in a lot of folk's opinions.

One day I will join you brother, one dayI'm 1 year clean now lol.
Last ones were gifts so the latest purchase for my own entertainment was on 30th Oct 2014.
Soon? No.
After 60 hours? definitely,
Wait what? How many hours?
DLC is a pretty poor excuse for this design, in my opinion. In the screenshot I posted - only two of those games I already own even have any DLC (Civ IV and CKII) and one of the games (Civ IV) I already have all of that game's DLC.
It would even be more useful (for the sake of discoverability) for them to have shown me a whole screen full of CKII DLC mixed in with the few games I didn't own. Netflix has their "recommendation engine" down to such a science that there has been a bounty out for years for someone to come up with a better system. Valve obviously doesn't care.
The argument that "It's good enough - look at how well it works compared to how it used to be" has now past it's expiration point.
who wants snakebird
please buy snakebird
Depends. Any impressions of the game?
Snakebird is a PC exclusive (OSX/LIN as well) puzzle games about cute birds shaped like snakes in a cheery, bright world. Both the art style and the score of the game evoke a very touching, peaceful, and beautifully innocent atmosphere.
However, that is nothing but a lie that is surface deep. Once you pass the first few levels which guide you through the mechanics, you are put in a situation where the world map begins to branch out.
It's adorable, isn't it? It's large, but it evokes a very friendly, inviting atmosphere. At first look, this is the kind of game you'd expect to see on your child's iPad or iPod touch, right?
Wrong again. This is just the selection of which of the 9 circles of Hell you'd like to traverse through first is.
The mechanics are fairly simple! You control Snakebirds, moving them around, getting fruit and moving obstacles. Sometimes you get one Snakebird, sometimes you get a few and you have to use them together as teamwork to reach the goal. Once all the fruit is collected, each Snakebird has to get through the colourful portal that opens up to leave the level. Thankfully, there is a button that is an equivalence to a "ctrl+z", undoing your last move.
You will make the Snakebirds die. They will literally quiver in fear as they stare down a pitfall, or a spiked block, or spikes in general. If another Snakebird is in danger, and you switch to your other Snakebird, he will glare you down with the force of a thousand suns. A look full of hate.
The first time I bought this game, I bought it full price. I played it for a while, before nearly tearing my hair out in frustration. I enjoyed a solid 8 hours of gameplay during a week where I had next to no consistent internet - and I hadn't downloaded many other of my games to my new harddrive. By the time I had internet back up reliably, I immediately refunded it. Snakebird had beaten me, beaten me into a bloody pulp. I 3-stock Contra with ease. I've had no issues toppling Miyazaki and co.'s Souls games, nor Bloodborne. Hardcore endgame raiding in MMOs? Been there, done that. Rhythm games? Bring 'em on, I got this. Shmups? I can do it, pass me the arcade stick. Fighting games? I'm slightly better than the average Joe.
Snakebird? Snakebird broke me.
But I just bought it again in the Steam sale! I mean, it's half off, and I've spent time away from it. Maybe the difficulty was routed in me being frustrated by silly, easy puzzles?
Nope.
Snakebird was, and continues to be, ballbustingly hard. I'm tearing my hair out here. Once I finally think I have the level beaten, I realize that there is no way for me to get both of my Snakebirds to the portal, or I've trapped myself to a point where I can't get that last piece of fruit so easily...
Anyways, I'm going back to playing Snakebird until I have a stroke or brain hemorrhage. You should play it too.
It's 50% off during the Autumn Steam Sale. ($3.49 USD)
It has trading cards, a badge, cloud save support, controller support, and a 98% positive Steam rating (where essentially all of them praise the game for it's aesthetic and deadly difficulty!).
I think someone said yesterday that it's a 100+ hour game.
I, uh, kinda prefer the old store, even now.
The new/current store has always been a mess of crowdsourced nonsense and recommendations I'll never be interested in, thanks to the ten billion games added to Steam with loose-to-no differentiation between them. (Stemming from the crowdsourced tag system.) And curations... pshaw. They work better as tags, like Framerate Police or PC Port Report, than they do as genuine curations.

Quake Bundle ... I got for 9.17
used promo SAVE10 code for 10%off
because fo3 is a bad video game.
It gets my Kriken Award for being irredeemable garbage. not a lot of games get that honour
I was looking at The Elder Scrolls Online and apparently they are having a "Black Fredas" saleon their in-game shop.lol
$23.99 gets you 5,500 "crowns" which is exactly the right amount you need to purchase both the Imperial City and the Orsinium Expansion Packs.
They're also selling a limited edition 1-per-account bundle now through Dec 1 for 1,900 crowns. This bundle will include the following items:
- Green Narsis Guar Mount
- 10 Crown Experience Scrolls
- 10 Crown Riding Speed Lessons
- 10 Crown Riding Capacity Lessons
- 10 Crown Fortifying Meals
- 10 Crown Soul Gems
- 50 Crown Tri-Restoration Potions
It took me 3 fucking hours to beat the first boss of bloodborne and it has been so far the most unfun souls experience i've ever had.
The way the game plays really does not suit my playstyle.
The camera is goddamn terrible.
I have a really hard time reading enemy attack patterns
The camera is goddamn terrible.
Too muche enemy it's like the worst parts of DS2
And The camera is goddamn terrible.
Jesus fuck 1 billion.
I remember playing Crossfire once. It's a f2p CS clone. At a least play something original like GunZ
Guess I should get the expansions if I pick it up?
What's the install size of ESO, J?
Urge to troll...rising.
Bethesda game actually the safest one to buy in this sale
