Well, you have played 3 mediocre games in a row.
Sometimes, it just takes that one game to break you out of a funk.

I was kinda in the same funk post Unity so I just rolled right into Far Cry 4 and it clicked pretty hard.

I saw you mention 98% sync earlier, about how long did that take you? And what's the missing 2%? :p


I think I'm in sequence 9 or 10 myself, haven't had a lot of time to play unfortunately.

No Uplay Black Friday deal for the rest of the world, of course. Fuck you too, Ubi.


GMG's deal of the day is Alan Wake franchise 75% off
Bundlestars is doing a flash deal on The Escapists 50% off


Steam key for Collateral was added to IG Every Monday 6

The app-related quests and a couple collectables that I just don't feel like finding. Oh and the bonus objectives for the race against the timer while collecting datapoint missions. Took me 58 hours which is the longest an AC game has taken me by far (I stop playing most at the 95% completion range).

Shit! I threw all my game money into my Steam Wallet! I should have held at least $50 back for the GMG/Amazon/GamersGates.
Well... My wishlist is public, so you might aswell take advantage of that ;)
I'm disappointed that CDPR didn't go ahead with a physical dice poker set. Someone on GAF asked a dev about it at E3 and was told that although the general feeling internally was that there's not enough demand, it was being considered nonetheless.

Edit: I've said this a million times, but one of these days Valve really ought to have Raising the Bar reprinted for sale via the Valve Store.
I would've bought that asap. And I really, really want Raising the Bar, but it's really hard to get a reasonably priced copy now :/
 
WebM for retards (not my fault, it's called that way) is much easier if you're only looking to casually make webbums, also has the option to crop a video which is great.
https://github.com/WebMBro/WebMConverter/releases/download/v1.0.13/Converter.zip
Wow, that's even more straight-to-the-point. It even has a crop feature! Nice!

Argh, this sucks. First mandatory ACRTAG, now this :/ .... >:/
And just when I got into Steamverse 6 months ago.
Usually buy only older, higher discounted stuff but this I can't count on my traders to have everything on stock for 30 days or even wait 30 days to get the game.

About the gifting ability still intact. One of my previous russian traders always sent me games as gifts, not per trade. At some point he told me valve shut his account for a week because "he was gifting too much". So yeah, that gift ability seems to have some restrictions based on region?!

He seems to have fun in doing what he's doing. And makes good money as well.
While I don't enjoy his work, I wish I could say the same about me.

See here's the thing right, while webm is a great container and sizes are stupidly small it's still a video format and not that embeddable. Plus it's reliant on the user agent being able to handle it. Hopefully APNG might get some more traction as file sizes and quality is leaps and bounds over gifs at this stage (plus that recursive backronym rings true 'Png's Not Gif's').
Of course there's always webp files which no one really has caught on to yet...
Smaller than gifs, just not as well supported.
..and looks way worse than webm :p
But I get you. Natively embedded and supported fileteypes like gif won't disappear easy and don't have to fear webm. It's just that for video game footage webm does give the best quality at relative low bandwidth. And you know how gamers get their rage on about IQ and whatnot ;)
PS:
Don't show everyone how old you are grandpa doc with your adamant focus on gif :p

Okay we have an official super clear comparison between all the versions of this re-release, including a comparison with what will be in the 1.10 Patch for last-gen owners.
http://darksouls.jp/pc/scholar_of_the_first_sin_specmatrix.html
The chart is in Japanese, so I'll translate the column on the left indicating the features. The rest should be self-explanatory.
New Features:
- New characters and events (Included in all versions of SoFS, will be added in the 1.10 Patch for existing users)
- Story and world additions (Included in all versions of SoFS, will be added in the 1.10 Patch for existing users)
- Various balancing tweaks (Included in all versions of SoFS, will be added in the 1.10 Patch for existing users)
Included DLC:
- DLC1 (Included in all versions of SoFS, not included in the 1.10 Patch)
- DLC2 (Included in all versions of SoFS, not included in the 1.10 Patch)
- DLC3 (Included in all versions of SoFS, not included in the 1.10 Patch)
- Supports existing save data (Supported for all last-gen versions of SoFS and the 1.10 Patch, not supported for next-gen versions of SoFS)
- Game Server Region (PS3 = A, 360 = B, PC(DX9) = C, PS4 = D, XBO = E, PC(DX11) = F)
Distribution:
- Retail
- Digital
While these sound good, these are not acceptable imo:
- Graphics and performance upgrades (Only included in next-gen versions of SoFS)
- Improved online multiplayer (Only included in next-gen versions of SoFS)
- Enemy and game design adjustments (Only included in next-gen versions of SoFS)
- You cannot transfer save data from last-gen to new-gen.
- You cannot upgrade the Windows (DirectX9) version to the Windows (DirectX11) version.
That's not cool in my book. Pre-existing owners shouldn't get the shaft like this.

found first work as programmer. start monday 1st. so happy. steam money incoming. :D
Congrats my man! Did your page about visualization of the owned steam library help you in any way? :p

Sort of okay deal on Uplay games, Buy one, get one free on select games, you can buy Lara Croft: The Temple of Osiris for $17.99 and get Watch Dogs or South Park for free, among other assorted games.
http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubina/en_US/html/pbPage.BOGO
That's actually a very good deal. Watch Dogs alone should be worth it.

Is Everlasting Summer one of those creepy dating simulator games where you have to try and seduce Japanese schoolgirls?
Nah.
It is one those awesome dating simulator games where you have to try and seduce Japanese & Russian schoolgirls. And Miku Hatsune somehow, too.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Well, that DaS2 Enchantment Edition announcement thread seems to have devolved into what every DaS2 thread devolves into. Time to unsub I guess.

The app-related quests and a couple collectables that I just don't feel like finding. Oh and the bonus objectives for the race against the timer while collecting datapoint missions. Took me 58 hours which is the longest an AC game has taken me by far (I stop playing most at the 95% completion range).
58 hours, wow. That's longer than I expected for sure.

I think I'm going to put on a podcast or something and just collect everything at some point now that I have the third lockpick level.

I'm getting friend requests from random people the last week or two. I don't really play online, and when I do, I only play with my friends I know in real life. Does anyone know why I'm all of a sudden getting random friend invites and how to stop it?

If you don't recognise the username from somewhere (like GAF), they're most likely scammers, just decline them.

Well, you have played 3 mediocre games in a row.

Agreed. I lost all desire to play any games for quite some time a couple of years ago, then I started Sleeping Dogs and 40 hours later my joy for gaming had returned!
