Desura is dead, really dead, don't you know that?
They probably had paid servers for a year (at least that's what I assume), it'll go away next year for good, I think
wrong
right one

Nah, everyone who installed it while it was F2P, can still install it.
Oh, yeah never cared for it so all news about it went just past by me.
on the bright side, steam severs seem to be doing better for the last two days, no?

how do I avoid doing 2 hours thing with new idlemaster, seems to be no way to do that.
edit2: nvm, found it, testing it now, will let you know how it went

They installed additional ones so Steam can handle the SC launch
So today is Batman Day. This will be fun
I'm expect some threads in Community hub two hours after release, something like "You fixed nothing, WB!", "The only reason they "fixed" this is to sell DLCs" and stuff like this.
Yeah, but prices are always expensive as usually. I mean, you can take Blackguards 2 plus other games from Humble for half the price GMG asks, and this is just one example excluding Capcom games.

We did a little experiment yesterday with the release of Divinity-Original Sin - Enhanced Edition to discover if people actually do read end user license agreements (EULA's).
Our EULA on Steam included the following phrase: "16. Special Consideration. A special consideration in material or immaterial form may be awarded to the first 100 authorized licensees to actually read this section of the EULA and contact LARIAN STUDIOS at info@larian.com. This offer can be withdrawn by LARIAN STUDIOS at any time."
We're telling you now because the results are in and it turns out that you in fact do read these things. Our lawyer feels good about this.
He's also revoking the consideration because we're making him pay for every mail we get
Except Witcher 3 which they're STILL listing as 50% off even though they've been Out of Stock since all the shenanigans with CD Projekt. It's especially annoying because this means that they're always listed as the lowest price on Enhanced Steam.

Hmm, Origin is having a sale, still, don't buy Dragon Age Inquisition unless you really, really want to.
It can't be worse than 2. *shrug*
Can it?
He's still a lot more on-topic and of value to the general discussions in the thread than the majority of you noobz.
I concur. Truely.
This is not sarcasm, I'm telling you. I mean, who wouldn't think Kojima a visionary? Such a lust for hatred! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!?

It's a different kind of bad. That still has somewhat entertained me for 50h.
Graphics is pretty, combat can be entertaining if you put some real effort into understanding it, camera views are terrible, quests are terrible, NPC's are sometimes entertaining, quite awful as an open world RPG.

Do you like the current trend of AAA open world nothingness?
Now that's just a great little thing to do. Made bunch of people happy and gives Divinity a little extra exposure because that's surely worth a news article at some sites.
I'm seriously considering starting Enhanced Edition although I beat the game last year and Fallout 4 is coming in less than two weeks..

Yeah, I'm thinking this will be the best time to use up the last of my credit before they take it away. This War of Mine looks tempting.

So does Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition have waypoints or no?
D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die has a discount right now -35% on steam, it ends November 2. Now that's as low as D4 has been, but winter sale is coming, it could go lower if daily or flash deal.
decisions, decisions
but this is such a bad timing... again

Buy it! Swery needs the money to make Season 2 faster!
Look inside you, you know that this time you really want to look for D.
Yes it does. Found one right in the beginning.

Nice, that was my biggest hurdle in the original version.

Will owners of the original get this for free? If no, it's a shame, since this should be just the UE 4 engine port, based on PS4 version (and that version is simply a mess even today after several patches).
I mean, Astronauts did this with Vanishing, the same applies to Dreamfall Chapters owners, getting the new Unity version for free.
Literally the only difference I see is now the game has several subtitle languages while the original was english only, I think.
gog Halloween sale is up
http://www.gog.com/promo/weekend_promo_halloween_monster_hunt_281015
Witcher on sale, obviously
wait what? I didn't know about DC new version at all, still haven't bought it too.

I can't really comment on sales, but it's worth noting that the way that Steamspy averages data over a few days means that it isn't as accurate during the initial sales period.
Devs are just porting the existing game into the last version of Unity. When you'll buy the game, you'll access the latest build with Unity engine.
can you hint is it higher or lower, please?
BTW, I bought a game!
yeah, I understood that, but when this is going to happen?
yeah, it sounds like it to me too, I just wanted confirmation I'm not misunderstanding it or something

Even a hint would probably be too much. I'm going to assume it's higher though.
YianGaruga

Yeah, as far as I know it avarages over 3 days, but the number went up by 1,5k since yesterday, so I guess three days of data are not enough to get an accurate picture for smaller releases.
Three days after the launch discount ends should be better, I guess? I still think SteamSpy shouldn't publish owners data until a certain time has passed, as it always leads to misunderstandings. I thought I understood how it works but I guess I didn't think about it enough.
It should be higher than my estimate, since the number went up by 1,5k since yesterday.
Now. They said they want to port existing episodes before releasing episode 4, a beta should go live this week.

Yeah I'm sorry a hint would probably be too much.
nah it's OK, we know we need to wait longer for more accurate data (the same was true for MGS5 and Mad Max), we just get impatient at times, but that's not a big deal.
dang... I should have bought it when it was on sale, but who could have known

Not the game of the year edition. :\

The week long launch discount means that sales tend to come in throughout the week, although obviously as a general rule they tend to be higher in the first few days rather than the end of the week, not always though.
YianGaruga

Yeah that's exactly what I missed. A sales spike for example wouldn't show up fully until a few days later, so it's probably best to wait until the discount has ended.
Umh...why? I mean, it's not like Vanishing, I think you won't get a +1, just one entry in your library with the latest Unity build.
as we are talking sales, are you happy with initial WotS4 sales?
don't scare me like that! I thought they'll rerelease it as a new game and it will be more expensive
everything is fine then, but it probably won't have a better discount any time soon after they upgrade it
Oh well, no rush

Same musician although they made them go for a "Tales" style for these games but lets loose more for the SO series.
Can you at least say whether you're happy with sales so far?
Not really, Go Shiina made a quarter of the soundtrack for Zestiria.
Is the game had more difficulty selection than NepNep games?
I haven't played it yet, sorry
