Reminder that is factually impossible to beat Ozium's score in Devil Daggers :')

Easily a BTA bundle for me - Prison Architect is the only one that I already have (from when it was top-tier in a bundle a couple of years back, as it happens)

That's a pretty good bundle, although I've never heard of the top tier game...

Per its Steam description, it's a "multiplayer online hardcore survival game"... so yeah, that's a definite "no" for me on that one!
 
my birthday is tomorrow so i come bearing gifts

Oh I'm not even considering yours :') I got a run that was, like, milliseconds apart from Ozium, but after that I kept trying for awhile but couldn't get anywhere close to him again.



80 seconds or something like that *nervous laughter*

I can't beat my own score now, I tried for like 2-3 hours yesterday.

I love that new update though, the top-down view on replays is pretty sweet.

Anyone here have experience with Towerclimb? I've been salivating for this game to get a sale from looking at it as my next Spelunky experience. Is it better as a controller or keyboard game and how is getting into it?

What are you talking about?
Even if you don't like where they took the story, in terms of gameplay it's the highlight of the franchise. Besides, Courtnee Draper's performance is absolutely incredible.

Yeah, if anything episode 1 of the DLC is the worst part. If you've already played it, there's little reason to skip episode 2.

I used to enjoy playing deathmatch in CS:GO now and then but since the sound update DM is just full of players running around with an AWP and manually voting for dust2 because its the one map where they know where to stand/camp with that weapon. I know DM will never be a focus for CS:GO but wow, this has gotten so much worse now.

I also just started UT for the first time in months. The game is pretty much dead and I doubt that this is due to the games alpha state. But then again, I guess it was never alive to begin with. I hope that Quake Champions and Diabotical will do much better than this.

Is Miscreated the game after Romero's Aftermath which was the game after Infestation Survivor Stores which was PNA The War Z?

I think I remember there being a lineage there.

edit: I can't find anything, I guess not

I really doubt Humble would somehow get suckered into giving them a major highlighted platform.

Well, Telltale Batman has a bug where it says press RT & A in a QTE and it doesn't work. Had to switch to Keyboard.

If you haven't checked your Humble Library in a long while, it's worth having a look.

Found 16 keys that I hadn't activated because they hadn't been added till some point after I made the respective bundle purchase or kickstarter release.

Of those keys includes something I complained about not receiving - the Broken Age Documentary series, which backers at a certain level are getting for free on Steam now that Steam does video series (and actually organises them in categories).

EDIT - Wow - The DoubleFine Adventure Documentary supports trading cards, but they are all within the first episode. Have cards gone too far?!
 
Runestone Keeper is one of the few "Very Positive" rated games that I absolutely despise. I just realized that it's also a game that I actually bought from the Steam store, instead of as part of a bundle. Now I'm trying to figure out why I bought it in the first place.

Nothing else in the new Humble really catches my interest.
 
I'm gonna have to pick up Forza Horizon 3, if you would have told me that in the year of our Lord 2016 I would have bought/acquired 3 games on the Windows 10 Store on my own free will I would have called you a liar.
 
Decided to start Dead Rising 2 after finishing the first game since I have never played it on PC and was still in the mood for more. And man, performance is often horrible. Framerate probably goes as low as 5-10fps at times. Thought this was a better port.

Just wait for fiscal year 2017, when Microsoft execs will see results from FY2016, they will undoubtedly put them on Steam.

That's a low probability IMO. I'd put higher chances on them just killing Play Anywhere if things don't pan out.

Horizon 3 and Gears 4 are supposed to be the Killer Apps of the Win 10 store.

Never played 2, but I don't recall having any issues with Off The Record
 
Dang it. RPG Maker changed a lot. Although I feel like releasing my own game and publish it on Steam. Who knows, maybe it'll be featured in the OP of the Steam | November 2017 thread :")

Just gotta put in some cards with anime tits and meme emotes and it's guaranteed to be worth the effort.

i remember having trouble with dr2/otr as well. pretty sure you need to disable motion blur. i'm not sure if there's anything else needed.

once i figured it out it ran fine at 4k on a 2gb 680 i5-3570k

Yeah, cards are mandatory for that kind of stuff. But I already have a concrete idea on concept and relying on my limited skills.
Can't program but can do sprites and music :p

IIRC telltale don't support it. It has issues similar to Unity games and Koei Tecmo stuff where it doesn't respond to certain buttons flat out (usually the triggers).

As someone who's currently making a game in Unity, I hope Unity/Microsoft get it together. Though I suppose we don't need the triggers anyway, so there's that?

I remember it being a solid port albeit with GFWL when I played. Apparently there are performance problems in the console version as well, which was likely based off the initial PC port.

MT Frameworks the best engine.

Just wait for fiscal year 2017, when Microsoft execs will see results from FY2016, they will undoubtedly put them on Steam.

It's not about profit, it's about incentivizing ecosystem adoption. Their gaming side profits are completely irrelevant anyways.

New episode of Batman was pretty darn good; Christ it's been a while since TT put out something worthwhile after mediocrity like Walking Dead Michonne and utter shite like Minecraft.
