Top of page reminder that Overlord: Fellowship of Evil still exists and is still a bummer.

Triumph before Evil.



Now, in entirely unrelated news:
Update Song

for the inevitable news post when DOS2 shatters its Kickstarter target and unveils the third set of stretch goals.

Oooh, awesome. Video is private, but I checked it out elsewhere. This is definitely going on my watch list.

Video is private?

Here is a mirror - http://vs8.3djuegos.com/videos/mp4/The_Beginner_s_Guide_Trailer.mp4?3425603

I think the trailer was meant to be out tomorrow. The video was an unlisted one from the developer, so must have been set to private just recently. The video even says "now available" even though it won't be till Oct 1st

Im 100% sure D:OS is going to be a tad more expensive then the first one. Thats how you do things, first you build a good reputation than you slowly raise the price with every game.

Edit: Oops, that was meant to be a raffle! Oh well, have at it.
 
While MGS5 definitely has it's issues, I feel being light on plot is still better than a plot that actively made me think less of the series like MGS4 did. MGS4 also had a similar issue as MGS2 in that half the game is just walking a couple of steps forward and triggering the next cutscene, and while I liked the gameplay in those games, they didn't utilize it enough.

So overall I'd still put 5 over 4 easily.

5 has the plot development of Nepoleon Dynamite. Things just happens and events aren't really tied together, then at the end....you realize not a fucking thing happened at all.

Seriously, if they ended at Chapter 1...Ok. MOST bits were resolved in some way or another.

Chapter 2 is an utter shit show. The intro includes so much shit that isn't even in the story. They abandoned the goddamn
Metal Gear
plot half way through and basically ignore it. And then you get to finish QWOP'ing all over again. If all the cut bits had been included and things were properly wrapped up, I may agree with you. But as a final Kojima MGS game, it's not great. Only reason I may include it in my GOTY voting is because I don't play many games.

4's story may have been an incoherent mess, but at least it stumbled in the same direction throughout and contained a decent payoff.
 
So all those games that crazyrabbits cheated unlocked ingame items?

You got it. Alien Swarm, Poker Night... there was stuff I've played in the past, but I have no interest reinstalling just to get a handful of cosmetic items. Better to just do it all in one shot.

I've never been big on achievements anyway, with certain exceptions.

The developer behind DieselStormers must change the name of the game after clothing brand Diesel won a trademark dispute.

The dispute began in July 2014 when Black Forest Games, maker of Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, received a trademark claim from Diesel over the name of its co-op arena brawler, Dieselstormers, which was funded through Kickstarter and released to Steam Early Access in July 2014

Seems they are totally trenched with this dispute.

Also, as if you can fucking trademark the word Diesel. Breaking that trademark everytime I fill up my car.

Diesel's trademark covers things outside of clothes, such as toothpaste, walking sticks, Christmas tree decorations - and games.

Nope. I doubt it would've been granted if they wanted it for anything related to cars.

Mystery Gift -- MB-48B99E505DF5D834 - Taken by Ryne

The biggest issue i had with Witcha 3's combat (And the game in general) is how little variety there is. You dont learn any new skills, attacks, you dont get any new weapons and you dont get to see any new enemys. Its like they took Witcha 2 and just stretched it to have double the size.

You do get new attacks though. And the alternative modes for signs are also very different from the base sign in some cases.

Afraid? Got something to hide? Don't worry, we'll get to you soon.

But in seriousness though it's just that usually it's like a page of someone just getting railed on for something that isn't even a big deal. Surprised everyone didn't go nuts about crazyrabbits like they did with lord.

EDIT: I triggered another bug in MGSV. This is the most unpolished game on the franchise.
At this point it's pretty much useless aiming for 100% if something crappy can happen like it did (a container I need to complete all objectives in a mission is missing).

Stronghold design in Mad Max is really, really good. Every place feels unique and i am really surprised how small they look from outside but how huge they are when you start to explore them .
