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.

The story is nice, but the game is a kinetic novel, which means you dont have any decision in the whole game.

It boils down to: do you have a heart? Are you vulnerable to FEELS? Because planetarian has way too much of that and it's not for those who get easily sad and cry and such. It's one of the best VNs around but, damn, those FEELS. Recommended indeed.

haven't played it myself but it's generally regarded as one of the better VNs yes

Welp. I guess I'm going to buy this game.
Or should I wait for the flash deal? :/
. Thanks for answering my question guys :p. Hopefully my heart is prepared for the FEELS ;p.
Yeah. I'm pretty much vulnerable to FEELS ;P

Hmh "Goo" and "Barrels" doesn't sound very wintery or xmas:y, more like Halloween. But oh how I will craft badges and get covered in goo... no wait

Being a civ 5 fan alone, this seems enough for now.

Nope. Technically speaking, it's just sending POST commands to the /ajaxexchangegoo/ which is returning a success code that's kicking off the relevant javascript. Without knowing what the /ajaxexchangegoo/ code looks like on the back end, there's no telling what (if anything) this is actually doing.

For now, it appears to be doing nothing.

Ordered Temple of Osiris + South Park from that Ubi sale. South Park had a Steam key in the email, Osiris is saying it will install over Uplay. May send out a key after launch? Dunno.

Yeah, it's just like pre-ordering from any site like GMG. You'll be able to get your Steam key once the game is released, possibly a few days beforehand.

Guys, I'm about to buy The Evil Within.

Just wondering, and yes I know this is just speculation, but it's highly unlikely for it to go lower during the Winter Sale, right?

No patch yet, but its coming :

We’d like to thank all our fans for the feedback and reports they have been posting and sending in. The team has been working hard on bug fixing and balancing, and as you’ll see in the change list below, we’re close to locking down this patch. We’ll share more specifics for the gameplay changes shortly while the build is making its way through the approval process.

-Firaxis Games


[GAMEPLAY]
• Implementing additional bug fixes for quests.
• Implementing modified quest rewards based on game speed and which turn they were received in.
• Revisiting difficulty level scaling. Increasing difficulty when playing on Apollo.
• Implementing balance pass on Health system (penalties, bonuses).
• Adjusting certain Virtues for balance.
• Implementing overall unit balance pass (strength, production and strategic resource cost, affinity level requirements, location on tech web).
• Implementing leader/sponsor trait balance pass (Kozlov, Barre, Rejinaldo, and Elodie), as well as some seeded start option adjustments.
• Implementing Covert Ops updates and exploit fixes.
• Implementing Trade Route balance and adjustments, including simpler UI.
• Implementing gameplay bug fixes as reported in the community (Quests, etc.).
• Implementing general AI improvements.
• Adjusting Affinity reward ramping when earning Affinity from Quests.
• Adjusting Station distribution, and arrival timing.
• Improving AI, including energy management, tactical management, tech and victory approaches, etc.

[ENGINE]
• Fixing a memory leak that could potentially crash the game (mostly affected MP)
• Correcting screen resolution problems, particularly related to the 144hz refresh rate full-screen (or lack of full-screen) issue.
• Investigating a start-up problem where the game shuts down with an error immediately following the opening movie.
• Investigating crash issues submitted by users, and through Steam crash reporting.
• Adding an in-game option to disable depth of field effect for players that prefer the game without this.

[UI]
• Ongoing updates to in-game text, tool-tips, etc.
• Correcting an issue where actions could be missing from embarked workers (like repairing a pillaged water improvement)
• Adding "Completed" section to city production menu so players know what they just finished.
• Adding advanced touch controls, gesture support, pen support.
• Adding color icons to the tech web (categorized) with an option to disable.
• Better inform players of approaching AI victory, and updated victory/defeat screen with additional information.

[ACHIEVEMENTS]
• Achievements not firing if Max Turns was set in previous games. Also investigating some other possible causes.

[MODDING]
• Fixing quest mod support.
• Fixing 2D leader fall-back image support for all graphics quality settings.

[MULTIPLAYER]
• Fixing an issue that led to disconnects in cases of content mismatch.
• Fixing an issue that was causing available/researched technologies after a re-sync.
• Correcting multiple desyncs.
• Ongoing multiplayer improvements.
• Increasing geographic range of server browser distance filter.

How much did you pay for PvZ: GW? I wouldn't mind double dipping for the PC version if the price is right...
