When does Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse and The Wheelman will be added again to Steam?

I need those games in my life
and Steam Library
!

I have a physical copy of Wheelman.

You're not missing much. Unless you like vaguely open-world games that are equal parts boring and hard as hell.
 
Oh damn, GAF!

It's time for another pre-Halloween giveaway!

What do you guys do when you don't feel particularly engaged by any game? I mean I still have a vast backlog, but it seems to be filled with titles that are a) not compelling right now, or b) currently "unplayable" for one reason or another.

Guys I'm starting the campaign of Age of Wonders III and I have a question:

Why did nobody recommend me this game before? It's really cool so far.

I'd find a multiplayer game like Rocket League and ignore my backlog.

I sit down, look at the ceiling and ask what the hell am I doing with my life.

Yo I want to get South Park The Stick of Truth but I don't want the shitty no violence (?) version they are selling in my country. If I get it from Amazon US do I need a VPN to activate it or is the key a US key?

You'll need to use a VPN to activate the key but not to play the game itself.

VPN? I thought purchase restrictions only affect steam store copies but not CD key?

Both. I've had to use Korean VPN servers to activate some of my Football Manager keys. In cases where you try to activate a key from within a blacklisted region, Steam will "cancel the purchase" but not eat the key.

Edit: I knew I had a screenshot of the error tucked away somewhere in my Abload gallery:

Because the real gems need to be hidden. It's a precious treasure that's best preserved, rather than displayed; a triumph in all ways.

aka something that compiles everything because im a lazy cunt?
 
Couple of spare Total War: Arena alpha codes, in case anyone wants the +1. Found these buried in one of my email accounts.

I'll need to buy the expansions ASAP, it look like they add so much extra content for the RMG, meanwhile I'll play the vanilla campaigns and scenarios.

Is it possible to download the old Bard's Tale game from inXile yet?

My account page shows them but I can't see any download indication?
Can't tell if not available or if I'm being stupid =/

Valve is pushing Big Picture mode and Steam Android App updates really hard last couple of days. Too bad we won't see new features anytime soon (probably after Steam Machines release).
 
So, uh - anyone have recommendations for an MMORPG?

I'm burnt out on WoW. It's been nearly a year with only a single raid added via patch content.

I was going to try Wildstar, but NCSOFT fucked up my order of the game so badly that it's put me off supporting them.

Guild Wars 2 doesn't have any real end game PVE. Also, NCSOFT.

FFXIV is fun, but the GCD is a bit slow and the areas being small to fit on the PS3 really kill the sense of an MMO to me.

TERA isn't my style. Don't like the aesthetics.

SWTOR is bad. Just bad.

SWTOR is the only good MMO on the market. That's how dire the current MMO market is.

Now, back to Steam stuff...

I haven't played much of the Eternal Lords xpac yet, but Golden Realms adds a lot of good stuff. The campaign is a step above the first set, with much more varied and interesting missions. I'm really looking forward to the Eternal Lords stuff, but I've vowed to work through the campaigns chronologically.

I played TOR for hundreds of hours for the sake of those dumb story missions that are, like, a max of ten hours long in story content.

I think I'm a sucker for Star Wars... Or maybe just Bioware games.
Yo. Secret World, EVE Online and World of Warships are a thing. As DC fan DC Universe Online was also speaking to me.

Is World of Warships actually good? Better than Tanks and Warplanes?

So, Tales of Zelestria. I liked Symphonia and plan on buying it on Steam.

I'm also pretty sure Symphonia will unlock. Making a worthy $59 purchase?

Yes?

Just to let you all know that the best MMO is still Dark Age of Camelot.
Of course I wouldn't actually recommend it now, as there aren't a lot of people playing.

But check out Camelot Unchained once it's released. Pure Realm Vs Realm gameplay with no PVE at all.

By the time those Kickstarted MMOs get to the marketplace people will have completely moved on from slow-paced, subscription-based MMOs. What was once massive is now MOBA.

If ToS will unlock, that makes the price for one game as I used to pay on release to retailers, kinda makes it worth, then again ToS is an old game, but ToZ is new.
It probably depends on how much you want Tales games on steam, because ToZ being first will influence later Bamco decisions, obviously.



there is a MMO talk without mentioning of Black Desert? What's wrong with you, people?
ya, I know it's not on steam yet, but it will be
