That's having great taste. Two of the best games in their respective franchises/genres.
Is there something on the page I need to look out for? I don't speak Brazilian, so I don't know if it says they're region-locked or not.

i should make a top 20 zkylon list or something
i'd probably wouldn't put the thief games there since spiders mean i can't ever play them again but deus ex is definitely there. thief 1 was also one of my favorite games back when i could play it

Disliking countless great games made between then and now is not
Ugh, the old-school icky spiders. Tomb Raider 2 had them as well.

Wonder what killed his spirits. I do share his dislike for Tomb Raider 2013, especially as a fan of the earlier stuff.
just go to your account, click on the game you want and key should be there
also brazilian is not a language -_-
yeah, actually the ones in deus ex (those robo bot thingies) also freak me out some bit but i can manage
the ones in thief are pretty bad for me tho
i really wish i could add it to the list, i'm really an admirer of everything thief stands for, but i feel it's unfair to name a game that i can't even play

Didn't touch it, so normal I guess?
I hear Skyrim has some particularly nasty arachnids. Whenever I get around to playing it, it might be an issue. Older games always horrifying sound effects to accompany the critters, and it was not appreciated by myself. Spiders and sharks freak me out. REmake is really bad on both fronts.
hola!Olá, zkylon!
yeah, that's why i never finished system shock 2, specially since that game is pretty fucking tense already
fortunately they don't show up until like half the game so i got to play a good chunk and would probably put it on my list anyways
also there's a mod that removes them, which i should try one day
i really, really like pretty much everything about system shock 2
the little of skyrim i played was with an easy to install mod that replaces them with like skeletons or something
nothing to be afraid of, except maybe skyrim itself being kind of shit :>
i wish i could do this faster but i'm very slowly making my anti-spider database

I like spiders in games, especially if the game makes them go pop.
It really depends on the game. Most are region free but not all.
Some are just region locked to purchase and you need a VPN to buy them, however the key will be region free.
And other's are outright locked and you would need a VPN to activate it on Steam.
Nobody speaks Brazilian. Not even Brazilians
You must adore Marlow Briggs.
No, I mean before I buy it. Is there something on the store page that indicates whether a key is region-locked?
Edit: Derp, yes it does. Quite obviously, too. My bad. Not a good night for me.
Oops. Had a brainfart. Meant Portugese.

Is the key for Alien: Isolation region free on nuuvem? I know you can't purchase it in US.
I never played it.

Tomb Raider Underworld would be a nice addition to that list. Creepy crawlies in a cave with nasty sounds to accompany them.

Ah, yeah, you still might have some issues with phase 2 of the second half of that chapter -- hardest fight in the game, easily.
I know some tricks when you get there, if you need them -- just let me know.
Also, PSA to anyone starting and playing Yaiba -- the game's menu is a bit of bad design -- so if you button mash to get "into" the game thinking it will continue, you'll get your save overwritten and lose your current checkpoint as well as all your levels/upgrades and shards.
So... when starting up the game... DON'T MASH.
This is how I ended up taking on Nightmare with a fresh save. -_-;
You should def try the game with the no-spiders mod and finish it. The last part of the game is not as good as the rest, but it's still a game worth playing through the end.
I actually like spiders in games too, despite not being a big fan of them in real life.

You should. It's cheesy and awesome and only costs a buck!
Oh man.
It's definitely worth the 1/$ it costs at the moment.
You can squish and pop an entire tropical rainforest worth of creepy crawlies.
The general restriction is that you're barred from purchasing, gifting, trading and activating CD keys. Valve can also restrict access to Steam Community but this is only done in cases where it's actually relevant. If by some bizarre twist of fate Valve decided to make an example of you, you'd probably get away with a warning if you promised never to do it again, but you'd hardly be the first person to err on the side of caution, so there's no shame in playing it safe.
FYI, the restriction system replaced this:
The idea behind it being that if a user runs afoul of the SSA they should still have access to the games they purchased while their account was in good standing, which wasn't possible before.
yeah i was thinking of like making a form or something if people wanted to contribute to that list and then host it somewhere
at one point i'll do it
yeah i mean, it's not like thief in like i used to love thief and i can never play it again bad, so i'm not in a hurry to beat system shock 2 any time soon (tho i do have it on steam if i ever feel like it)
like fortunately i got to play it just a few years ago so it's fairly fresh in my mind
some day, tho

For $1, it's okay... but at it's core it's a competent (at best) God of War clone with no real strengths unless you really adore cheesy b-movie (or lower grade) writing.
I do love that they know their "cutscenes" are so bad that they included an achievement for skipping all of them.
Outside of that, my biggest issue with the game was the ridiculous lack of boss fights. I still can't forgive that.
Some people will tell you to jump in on it, but you won't be missing much if you skip it.
Do as Santa Saorise says, not as she does, children.
Okay, I've managed it a few times now, still hard to do while the other dude is shooting at you tho =p
I can dodge their charges and their firespews, but while I'm fighting one dude, I pretty much get fireballed to death by the other one.
(And no, I didn't get the counter slowdown before now, and I a few XP off from next level)

Block early and hold it. Like when the projectile still in front of Yaiba. If you hold block, worst case you might take a little splash damage, but you won't die. When countering, it doesn't really have to be anywhere near him actually... I ended up doing it by the audio cues after all my hours. The one that's ridiculously difficult is countering the bride's electric projectile because the timing is off from the other two.
Here, this has some counters you might be able to figure out the timing from.
Sorry it's not from the normal game, but the timing and mechanic are the same.

I thought it looked cool enough to buy, but like everything else, it's currently a +1 cause all I do is PAYDAY 2.

Hmmm, might stream a bit... some Geometry Wars 3, maybe?
Made it by uh... knocking one guy half off the map, so he couldn't fight back, killing him, ripping his mortar off, shooting the pile and then getting the hell out of there while the other one tried to hit me =p

glad you made it -- chapter 4 is where the shit hits the fan -- chapter 5 is where the difficulty spikes and chapter 6 is like a continuation of 4... the real Yaiba starts here.

Random question: I am new to the PC side of things, and just installing Origin. Seems a nice store and what not, but people seem to greatly dislike it. I'm interested in playing the Mass Effect Trilogy (please no comments about the third game) and see that it is on sale for $15 on Origin. Any reason why I shouldn't buy it?
