Would be funny if they charged them for the game.
Mailman is team red confirmed. jk.
But seriously, that sucks.
Yup. And worst thing is, even when codes are revoked, those sellers don't really lose, only those who bought from them. Sellers mostly use system that don't provide buyer protection (Paypal gift, skrill, bitcoin)
I go all the way to my local store to buy all my computer components and carry them home, it's shit but maybe it's actually a good thing
Well, that's not an option in most of Finland (where image is from). Outside few cities, there are no real computer shops.
I'm glad I never had problem with shipping of my parts.
Dunno if keys still working...

It's a shame Coldwood doesn't own the IP. I mean, sure, it didn't have to accept the publishing deal, but EA Originals* is just EA Partners with the caveat that EA owns what it funds. The initiative isn't the result of EA wanting to do more with independent developers; it's the manifestation of EA's realisation that exclusive publishing rights for x years wasn't beneficial enough for EA itself. It's a step backwards rather than forwards, unless you're in EA's shoes.
* Technically, Unravel is not an EA Originals game, but the end result is the same and it did lead to the creation of the program.

It clearly could not withstand the G-Force of the shipping. The card got what is deserved.

To be fair, when I contacted Amazon support about getting a code that's what they told me to do, I asked it if was possible to get a $60 credit on my account instead and they did that instead because I didn't want to bother with possibly getting charged again and have to wait for a refund.
Haha, I was a little quicker.
I actually did think it was Coldfoot, though, but after posting I thought to check and realised I got the second half wrong.uncredited male

Isn't that GOW thing the same thing some around here do with the preorder beta keys?

Free Battlefield 2142 sounds pretty cool. Let's see how I can do without constantly running, jumping, and going prone to avoid getting shot.

Almost ready to play Mankind Divided...
The Fall is as easy as I remember it being on iPad. It's definitely a heavily watered down Deus Ex experience, but it's still decent fun. Finishing my e-book speed run in the original HR was definitely easier with Hengsha onwards (where I dropped the run) fresh in my mind. Just need to get those Praxis Kits from Deus Ex GO.

What would you suggest, HR regular +DLC or Director's Cut for the first time playing ?
Was just checking out a PS4 loading time thread, I knew things were bad but this is terrible.
If leisure time is equal with someone on console, I am literally going to be able to fit in multiple more games over the course of a generation.
Why? In the highly unlikely event that happens you send the part back. Merely unfortunate circumstance, but not a legitimate fear.

For what it's worth, in my experience, the most common answer to this question is the original release + The Missing Link as the Director's Cut is based on an older build of the game and TML works better as a standalone expansion.
Yes but, the boss fights have been changed and improved for the Director's Cut.
I would never, ever, not in a million years mail order a PC part worth more than $25.
Direct pickup from a computer store or bust.

Everytime I start it up I have to beat my best before I can turn it off, kind of addicting.
Admittedly, I've practically zero experience there. I just took the path of least resistance and spammed typhoon, plus I've not played the DC. I'd intended to do a DC run prior to the release of Mankind Divided, but The Witcher 3 and, to a lesser extent, Diablo 3 got in the way.
I imported all of my upgrade parts from the US. The savings were too great to ignore (~$470), even though I was expecting something to go awry (nothing did, for once). The government will begin -- well, wants to begin would be more accurate as there's the matter of enforcement -- charging 10% tax on all imported goods beginning next year, though, which played a part in my decision to upgrade now rather than wait for the next crop of CPUs.
Edit: Actually, for a few days I did suspect that the integrated NIC was buggered as I couldn't get a 1Gbps LAN connection despite trying a variety of solutions. It ended up being a router issue that I corrected by switching to ADSL mode then back to wireless router mode. That's PC gaming for you.

Regular and DLC afterwards. DLC drags the game out a bit too long and messes with the pacing of the finale. I had the stuttering in the DC and I do not get stuttering in the original release. I also prefer the piss-filter, it's how the game was intended to be viewed and gives the game a cool vibe.
The boss fight adjustments in the DLC feel super tacked on (because they are) and honestly don't add much. The boss fights are still stupid and out of place and are best solved with trip mines and explosive magnum bullets regardless of the difficulty you are playing so that you can get back to proper gameplay.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Rimworld in the top ten. Steam users are making the right choices this month.
Embrace the zee, explore the... zky? Surely that has to be it.
In seriousness, I'm excited for it. Failbetter does good work. Not sure what I'll do for the KS, but I'm excited to see it.

Improved is being charitable, though I suppose it is technically correct. They still are the low points of the game, and really shouldn't be a factor in decision making about what to play.

DXHR should have gone full Alpha Protocol with the bosses. AP at leas turned them into these weird retro boss moments, with introductions, phases and specific patterned attacks; making them both momorable and fun
Newegg is a godsend when you want to find a specific range of parts, particularly for upgrades. They actually list specifications, dimensions, and stuff that a lot of other places gloss over.

Wanna play through Nier again before Automata is released because it's been so long but I keep wondering if they are going to surprise us with a PC version. Seems unlikely.
Finding the time is gonna be a problem, takes me ages to finish a game these days.
Currently playing Doom and Shadowrun Dragonfall on Steam, both are great.

From the hydraulic press channel?
I beat Deus EX HR DC a month or so ago for the first time, didn't mind the boss fights.
Also didn't end up seeing the appeal of staying completely no-kill which I was considering going in. The first real mission against misguided terrorists who haven't killed anyone yet that we know of sure, and even the bulk of the game sneaking around or against outmatched random thug.... but when people Jensen actively saw killing his co-workers (
) are firing at him with automatic weapons... running around trying to figure out some way to merely incapacitate him seems a little artificial. And then especially towards the end when you

Great game though!
edit: Though maybe the story about his leaving the SWAT team justifies it more, I didn't really catch exactly what happened.

That's good to hear.

It is normal Deus Ex gameplay but simplified to work on tablets. The AI is pretty stupid and the bodies disappear almost instantly (ram constraints). The environments and quests are simplistic. The port to PC is fine tech-wise now, but hasn't changed the gameplay at all.
does anybody know what exactly happens when game is flagged on the store page? i mean, i imagine both devs and valve should get notified/involved..?
i used it once to report game that wouldn't run because it downloaded 0b after you tried to install it. it was magicaly fixed only minutes later, despite the fact the problem was reported days ago by multiple users on forums

I just tested this with Toki Tori in which I had a handful of achievements from 2011 and 2013, including the So Sad achievement. I just reset them all with SAM and then unlocked the So Sad achievement again with a new date and all.
So it definitely works just like I remember it, Steam forums are just full of bad info.
I always order everything online. Never had a bad package.
