STEAM | October 2015 - You had me at "game ... comes to Steam".

I'm far from reaching 52 games completed but looking into my list, this year is giing to be the one where I finished more games

Hey SteamGaf. I have RPG Maker MV and I think I should make a SteamGaf RPG. Who wants to be in it?

Please let me know if you want to be a villain, hero or just one of the towns folk. Also I'm aiming to get it done before MV launches proper so there will be many corners cut.

Let me know if you want me to use something similar to your avatar.

Put me as a Panda, if it fits in the game.
Good news, jshackles, FFV should be in somewhere in top 15 of new releases for last month.

Are you going to make a thread with the best selling games from September?

Should i get Sniper Elite 3 or wait for even more bigger discount? (did not play previous titles)
PS - and still playing MGS5 (and not bored yet!), soon this game will top my longest played game on Steam (DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin with 79 hours still a king)

I'd actually buy the AC games I'm missing (everything after Black Flag) and even buy Syndicate close to release, but what is stopping me is that damn Uplay and no Steam Achievements.

Thankfully there are a lot of other games to play, but I kinda miss my yearly AC fix. They might be repetitive, but I love exploring those worlds.

UPlay is way better than few years ago and they are still working on it (i can't say same for Origin, there are always new updates but i can;t see anything new) and i personally never had any issues with service.

I dunno why I keep playing the game. I told myself to not bother on completing all tasks for all missions, still I completed 18 missions out of 50 with all tasks :S

Yeah, I have Black Flag on Uplay and I did play it for more than 90 hours without problems, but the lack of steam achievements kills my enthusiasm for the AC games.
Apart from Black Flag, I played the others on the Xbox and I liked to 100% them, but I can't go back to the console versions now.

Only thing I know about Corpse Party is the famous (infamous?) "butter up my pooper real good" screenshot.


Looking forward to it.

To be honest i still don;t understand why people like achievements so much :D Yeah they are nice addition but i am not playing game to get them, i play game to enjoy and relax (sometimes think and practice reflexes :D). If deal is good i don't care if i need to use Steam/Origin or UPlay :D

The only way you get "bro-op shooter" out of the FEAR license is when you strap said license onto a wobbly original IP with a solid gameplay loop.

It's a terrible game with no redeeming qualities as far as FEAR games go... It's the same sort of reasoning that led to The Bureau. This line of reasoning is almost always a mistake.

No redeeming qualities huh.

I personally found it leagues better than Fear 2. Now that was a game with not much to add. At least we all know the 1st is the best.

When will Devil's Third come out in NA so I can play the true GOTY and we can all have a SteamGAF Devil's Turd Game Night via the Steam version. Also is it known if I can play the Wii U version vs the poor PC people?

Amazing.

Mission 45 of MGS can die in a fire. It's a non-stealth mission, but won't let me get back to the ACC to suit up...and they give you a shitty rocket launcher.

Fuck this.

Exactly my reaction. I even used the same wording.

i wish there was more triss in witcha 3, if i knew it was gonna be yennefer yennefer yennefer all the time i would've picked her only so that she's not hating on me all the time :T

Triss is da best.

What the hell was CDPR thinking. Why wasn't that post game content?

They like to go overboard with their "maturity".


Good.
 
I think InputMapper. Some people say DS4Windows, but I'm ok with InputMapper, it works on all games.
DS4Windows I believe is still the best. It's what I use anyway.
Plug it in! If you want to use it for X-Input games install DS4Windows.
DS4Windows is still top dog for me. Just make sure you have "Hide DS4" checked in the settings tab, and you're good to go.

Thank you, everyone. I'll give DS4Windows a go and look at InputMapper if I run into problems.

I honestly don't know why I care, but I will try to get all achievements in the games I play. But I don't of course care about achievements outside of Steam. Uplay and Origin have them, but meh. Why bother.

So, while I generally like the AC games, I'm not too keen on buying them full price with Uplay in them and no Steam achievements. I'll wait until the <5€ offer.

I realize I'm probably crazy of course.

nah, you are not crazy, I totally dislike Ubi a couple of degrees more because their games have achievements everywhere but on steam. That's very clear message in my eyes that they hate us.

Never understood the love for that game.

For a RPG maker horror game I think it works pretty wel. Played it on PSP and while not the scariest thing it had its moments. Though I would recommend for story players to just play with a guide to know the path to the true route. The other endings are worth seeing due to their graphic nature, but it can be a bit annoying if you mess up and keep getting the same ones.
 
That feel when you get a booster pack, discover you have a duplicate card and only one more needed for the set, then go to the trade forum and not even spammers post in it.

Recent Ubisoft games have Achievements thought.

So maybe Syndicate too?

They most certainly do.

Talking about something else: a few days ago my brother was at my place and we started playing SOMA together. I've played the initial part alone before and he played the entire first section thanks to family sharing.
Anyway, it was awesome. He decided we should play together. By my calculations, we should finish it before the end of this year.
 
The tracking ability on these tanks is astounding. Hiding in the building? Snipe you with the cannon. Running full speed? Snipe you with the cannon.

This is the worst mission in the game.

Just finished Soma, what a great Game. It really blow me away. After reading the Steam Forum, i thought it would suck.

Next Game i will play is Undertale, hope this will be a great experience too!

But was it better than Bioshock?

The whole romance thing in Witcher 3 is so ridiculous that I really don't know more focus would improve it in anyway.

If you bone
both Triss and Yen
there's a mission near end of the game where they
tie you to the bed for the night
ALL WHILE IT'S LIKE THE END OF THE WORLD IF THEY DON'T DO SOMETHING RIGHT NOW.

Like literal end of the world as they know it. And they decide to pull a BDSM prank on the only one who can stop it.

What the hell was CDPR thinking. Why wasn't that post game content?

Same for the friggin'
crossdressing part
.

So I take you didn't do any sidequests throughout the entire game? I mean, you HAVE to find Ciri, can't be wasting time finding Werewolves and shit amiright.

Should i get Sniper Elite 3 or wait for even more bigger discount? (did not play previous titles)
PS - and still playing MGS5 (and not bored yet!), soon this game will top my longest played game on Steam (DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin with 79 hours still a king)

And then you get to the end and realize you were played like a damn fiddle.

That mission took me fucking ages and I almost gave up on it. I just ended up calling in the helicopter whenever I could and hiding behind the building only popping out to take shots. Eventually got it, not worth.

Armikrog still bugged despite delays. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/10/01/steer-clear-of-armikrog-for-a-bit/

From the god-awful menus (broken in some languages, requiring you to change the language settings of Windows to fix!), and the optionless options which insanely contain Save/Load, to the default Windows cursor, it feels deeply unfinished. There&#8217;s no object highlighting to an extraordinary level, where objects that will soon be useful don&#8217;t react if clicked on before they&#8217;re ready. There&#8217;s certainly no &#8220;look at&#8221; option, but Armikrog goes even further with stripping down the adventure to almost nothing, by not even having an accessible inventory either. It&#8217;s done for you when you arbitrarily click. And arbitrary it really is, as the character magically produces objects before I&#8217;ve found them, opening the game up in all the wrong order.

Sound is a disaster, with voices often sounding like they&#8217;ve been gagged and sealed in a barrel, the music occasionally just vanishing. And for one character in one location, the voice has disappeared meaning they pantomime in silence. And now I&#8217;ve reached a point where, perhaps because I&#8217;ve inadvertently solved puzzles I shouldn&#8217;t have the parts for yet (although it&#8217;s anyone&#8217;s guess), it won&#8217;t trigger the introduction of one of the game&#8217;s key characters &#8211; the baby. The only reason I know this is because after clicking around randomly at every pixel on every screen, I gave up and wondered if anyone had made a YouTube walkthrough yet &#8211; thanks random Russian guy who has, because I got to see what should have happened when I went into the baby&#8217;s room, and now know I need to start the whole shitty thing over again.

Someone's angry. And default Windows cursor? Windows language/region settings (which going by reports means it would affect me)? What year is this? Also I only recently found out that Doug TenNapel is a bit of a cunt and the reviews even from those without problems are mixed so I'll stay clear of this for the time being.

Yeah, that mission is complete garbage. I ended up cycling between two locations on the bottom floor of the build where you can pop out and shoot at the tanks and get to cover before they can get you. There's also a spot in the building where you can fire at them but their attacks can't get through the scenery. Took ages to finish and I lost track of how many times I was one-shotted by a sniper tank shell.
