Yo freshVeggie, you thinking of getting Street Fighter V?
It's actually quite easy to get into, more so than SF4 IMO.

DreadOut is the game that looks like Fatal Frame, Indonesian. Yes, it is complete outside of one paid DLC thing coming out later this year, but that will be sold seperately anyway. And it is completely worth playing, though there are a few cryptic puzzles.

Not really a horror title, but MIND: Path to the Thalamus has announced that the redux will be released November 3rd, 2015 as a free update!

Far from being a simple restyling, MIND: Path to Thalamus Enhanced Edition, in addition to Windows operating system will be available on OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4, XBOX ONE and will have support for Virtual Reality. Also adds new puzzles, redesigned levels, four hidden areas, easter eggs and a new and reconsidered finale as well as other enhancements to the game.

One of the most highlighted feature on MIND: Path to Thalamus Enhanced Edition is the narration system where the player decides if he wants to listen the narration voice instead of the past automatic reproduction system. The general performance has improved in order to achieve a fluid experience on Virtual Reality. The new subtitles system allows to set the text aspect ratio to customize the experience. And of course new achievements!

I was... underwhelmed by the poor voice acting, messy script and rushed ending of the original, but still loved the puzzles and outstandingly well designed areas. Can't wait to see what they've done with the stages now that they've had more time and money to put into it.

Yup! Game is story complete and fully playable from start to finish. There's some upcoming DLC that will add more ghosts, a freeroam map and other cool touches, but I'd highly recommend picking up the base game while it's so cheap now.

So far what I've seen, SFV looks really cool actually. Liking the characters - new and old - and art.
But I am not planning on getting it soon. Will have to wait until several discounts.

Fair enough, just note that pre-ordering unlocks this beautiful dress from the start ;)

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.
So it seems like (given all the evidence that's been collected over the last few days) Valve's card drop algorithm has changed to this:
  • If you've ever requested a refund with Steam, games will not start dropping cards until after 2 hours of play time has passed.
  • If you've never requested a refund with Steam, games will start dropping cards without the 2 hour waiting period.
Does this sound like it's in line with what you guys have experienced? Has anyone here had cards drop quicker than 2 hours in the last few days and have requested a refund for a game in the past?

Ever/Never seems sort of harsh, but yeah, that would match my experience, as I've never requested one and I'm back to not needing 2 hours.

I've requested refunds on various games before and after the system was in place (since the system was in place, I've been denied on my request outside of preorder refunds) but I've had games drop cards faster than 2 hours and slower than 2 hours... so I'm not sure you've got the right idea here.

It's been particularly difficult to pin down because unlike last time they changed it, this time they seemed to have changed multiple things at once.

For example, I've heard from some sources that developers can choose to keep the "old rules" active on their game, setting a particular amount of time required before cards drop (any devs here that are able to shed any light on this, feel free to PM me) meaning that some games still have the requirement for everyone regardless of your refund request status.

American Nightmare is pretty much Alan Wake's mercenary mode - the combat's significantly better there. I liked the score attack maps best, though. The main "open world" campaign of American Nightmare is novel and would've been a lot better with more interesting content to fill it out - it's mostly just busywork between fights that doesn't have the charm of the original. As a pure action game it's pretty fun.
Click to expand...

Yeah, I gathered. Even if the combat is improved, the combat is the thing that happened between the story bits which was the real meat of the game for me. So I wasn't really interested in playing it.

9 bucks is still too much for Yaiba. My impulse for my reserves is 5 or less. Any more and I can't do it if I'm not gonna play it right away.
