jshacks, given that Valve won't obviously share sale data for their ongoing 'no daily deals' experiment, maybe we could infer something from Enchanted Steam server load?

You wrote that day one of the sale blew straight through all your expectations, how were days 2 and onwards in comparison?

Free Darksiders II: DE for owners of DS2+spass if someone didn't get it yet: http://ds2dekeyredeem.nordicgames.at/

I've never seen one of these pages automatically grant the game instead of just giving a key. Looks like they finally got in touch with someone at Valve of use.

Somehow my GMG credit is gone? I had like 9,xx€ left, did they remove the credit you gained through playfire?

No Ryse for me then

Yeah, it expired last week. They gave us about a month's notice.
 
No wonder it takes 3 minutes to load up the world.

Sell it to someone for, say, $19 and then use that money to buy a PSN card. It shouldn't be too hard to find a buyer.

So Ubi had a "daily" each day this sale. Wonder who will pull a stunt like that over the Christmas sale. Probably Activision.

I'm about to start playing Dark Souls. I've only played like one hour of it a long time ago. I usually like to play games without looking at guides. Can I go blind or do I need to know anything before I start?

I've already installed the DSFix.

Do you know of someone with a PayPal account whom you consider trustworthy? You could give out their address to the buyer and have them buy a $20 code from PayPal's Digital Gifts store. I'm sure a friend or family member wouldn't mind being a buck out of pocket. ;)

Without having a character reaction to damage taken one would be less likely to keep an eye on their health as much as characters with less poise that get staggered. It will make people feel super powerful even though they are getting their ass beat.

Not sure how you think that is made up.

There's some days I'm pretty sure you hate me.

I don't Jaw, please. I am just kidding.
 

Most hardcore players never go over 40 End. You stop gaining stamina at that point. If you are a few points away from an encumbrance breakpoint and have your preferred equips that might be an exception.

Certain attacks will knock you down if your poise is low and you take no damage when down. Hint: think about dragon attacks. Also PVPers can chain WoG easier on high poise characters.

So I bought Darksider 2 Deathinitive Edition at release and just used the "upgrade" website to get my free copy for owning darksiders 2. Instead of giving me a free copy it just said that I already own the game.

What should I do now? Refund the game and use the website again?
 
I finished Loot Hunter last night; 100%ed it in about 24 hours of playing. Here's my review, not much to really spoil, but just being safe:

Its a fun little simplified Sid Meier's Pirates-like game, without the duels and the ship combat as a match-3 game. There's not really any story, you just go around in your ship completing quests from 3 separate countries in an effort to gain land, money, treasure and upgrades. This can be done through trading at multiple outposts and cities on the map, and fighting ships from the respective countries or other pirates.

A few things hampered my experience as I progressed though. First, the match-3 game was pretty lacking; there are no chains even if you match 3 or higher of another set if new tiles fall in a row/column after your initial move. There are skills you can buy during your travels that are used in the 3-match game. A 4+ match would continue your turn, which later proves to be a little overpowered when coupled with one of the skills you can buy. Repair tiles usually aren't worth it, as attacks greatly outweigh any repairs that can be done. Attacks generally get more powerful the more tiles you can string together, though somehow for me, getting an attack with 4 matching tiles gave me better damage than anything 4+, i dunno.

Secondly, the more you level, the harder the ship spawns become, and I'm not talking a little bit more difficult. Having the best ship and additions by level 25~, some of the encounters you face (ships or squadrons 10-20 levels higher) as you play on are near impossible and retreat is the only option.

Lastly, in order to 100% the game, you'll have to play way beyond the time that is intended to be enjoyable for. To get to basically the end game (which i consider having the best ship, fairly high rank, and about 90% of the achievements) only took about 5 hours, so that meant it took me 19 hours of pure grinding to get the last two achievements. I suffered through it and because of it, i'll probably never play it again. In hindsight, 5 hours was enough and I might have in the future played it again if I stopped there.

TLDR; Decent simplified Pirates! wannabe with lacking match-3 combat, worth about 4-5 hours of fun. Don't 100% unless you're a masochist.

Go in blind. Don't read any wiki or guide or nothing! Patience is key.

Envious for you are about to explore Dark Souls for the first time :)

Here a couple mods which are nice and don't change anything in the game, only solve some visual bugs.

also that nipple one for queelag




its important for realism
 

MUnited83

For you.
that just sounds like bad advice

tanking with havels is like the top strategy in that game for newcomers
For newcomers? The Havel's set that is only available in Anor Londo? lol :p

Also, making a tank build without looking up guides and such, on your first run through the game? Yeah, that's a bad idea.

You're not supposed to receive a key/gift copy, just a licence for your own account. If you were granted a licence, you'll see "Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition External" on your licences page, in which case you can refund your store-bought copy. It's not free for all DS2 owners, FYI: you need to have the Season Pass as well.
