Is no one going to bring up the fact Australians get screwed over in this months Monthly bundle and we only get 6 games instead of the 7 because of Hotline Miami 2? Fuck that site.

edit: looks like you still get a DRM free copy just no Steam key. If they find out they will remove that aswell from us.

Mass murdering KKK members in a video game has brought about interesting results.

Normally the people that roll their eyes at another brofist shoot-em-up white male power fantasy are all super excited to play *just one part of a game that features* another brofist shoot-em-up black male power fantasy.

And the people that bitterly defend games that feature mass murdering from the other crowd are ... upset that there is mass murder in a video game?

Great job to the Mafia 3 team. They've managed to make two groups of people do a complete 180 on their stance.
Would be limited to US only even if true.

How deep is the lore in Spelunky. Why is his nose red?

His a man seeking the legendary golden statue head his father could never could, to complete the quest that took said father away from him. With hope that one day he can claim this treasure and return a hero in the eyes of the woman he loves (whose picture he keeps in his pocket).
It's not that he has a red nose, it's that everyone on that world he calls home has a red nose. Common humanoid trait.

Speaking of which, I should get back to Spelunky. Been long enough since I've played that I've forgotten most everything, and now I won't have to worry about being thrown off if I use the Metroid mod.

The only rogue-like I care for, the personal accountability/skill cap to scenario diversity ratio is fuckin awesome, every bomb and ladder is a gamble and I'd fuckin wish any other roguelike could entrap me with shit like this and not just some normalized flash game combat and only meaningful random element being in text.

I hear Towerclimb does this, and savin up for the next Steam sale cross fingers.

Is Slime Rancher still pretty content starved? I remember looking at it a few months ago, and it seemed pretty fun until you realize you have seen all three areas of the game.
 
Does SOMA ever...get good? I'm playing with the Wuss Mode mod since a lot of people recommend it, and it's kind of boring so far. It's doing this thing where it's setting up this huge mystery at the expense of having a world and characters I care about.

Oh my god Stein's Gate is so boring at the start.

I'm really trying to get to what people love about this (this is my second attempt) but it is a fucking slog to get there.

The first hour or so of SOMA is bland but it picks up.

Though I don't know if going in with the wuss mod is putting your best foot forward.

The original this month was Fidel. (scroll down a bit)
Fidel - Dungeon Rescue

Fidel is a small dungeon crawler where the hero can't step on its own path. It's easy to get killed, but there's many ways to get farther by exploiting monsters, treasures and traps.

Is there a limit for developers on how large a game's file size can be?

There is, but whatever it may be I've long since forgotten and I can't seem to locate any more. It's well over 60 GB however.

damn, that's exactly the game i wanted

if u guys bought it give it a shot, it's a spinoff of an in-development game by argieland's top indie dev that should be really awesome

The Steam equivalent of the drunk friend who keeps offering to pay your tab all night.
Paladins looks really cool, kinda regreting not buying the founders pack when it was on sale. Shameless Overwatch clone or not, im from the days where you had 50 clones of fighting games and nobody minded.
 

jshackles

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.
What happened to that redesign? Was it only for the steam store and not the client?

Only for the store, rumored to be rolled out next week - probably during Tuesday's maintenance window.
