The Banner Saga --MB-2F7A1E5CAFA64CA2- Taken by Zeeman. 20 entrants total.
It's not even that, I wouldn't mind if it was off for let's say by an hour or so for short games, but twice less? That's not even funny. If I want a game for one evening and I choose 2-3 hour game, I don't expect it to be 6-8 hour game, that's simply mean. I understand that people play differently and some rush like their ass is on fire, but as it's not my way, that site proved to be useless for me. It's a pity, really.
there is Jasec's post in this very thread what to use for which region, try search maybe?
oh well, I did search myself, here is the post

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything

Thanks! Yeah I was too lazy to search for one of JaseC's posts about this matter...

Well, actually I think they may be even shorter than that.
I finished Ben There, Dan That in 4 hours, but I took my time exploring all the lines and got stuck more than once so, since usually my playthroughs are usually longer than average ones, it should take less, especially if you follow a walkthrough it should take just a little time.
I'm not a fan of playing with guides, unless I'm really hopelessly stuck, and even then more often than not I just abandon a game for the time, then look for solution, that usually explains my long play times, lots of unfinished games too, that and multitasking.
I just like games to surprise me.
Anyway, do you mean it's easy to get stuck in those games?
edited: what I meant to ask, are solutions illogical?

Mordor on my GTX 660 at 1080p is just a mix of low and medium.
Still it basically holds a constant 30FPS with rare dips to 25 and no lower so there that at least.

Well, the games are quite weird and what happens in the games - I don't want to spoiler the story - would make little sense in real life in the first place, and some of the puzzles actually require some wild guessing, but other than that it may happen to you that you may not know what to do next or fail to notice some tiny items you should be supposed to pick in order to progress in the game, in fact when you try and do something randomly the two characters will often mock you.
Have Mordor half downloaded with 5 more hours to go, thanks to my not so great connection.
Meanwhile I went looking for some overclocking guide for my 2500k only to run CPU-z and find out that it's already going at 4.2GHz from the turbo mode I activated a little after I got the PC 2 years ago. All this time I thought it was still going at 3.3 because that's what Windows reported haha.
Now I just need to stay awake long enough to try out Mordor in 5 hours.

One does not simply OC for Mordor.

Yeah my i7-4790K is also already overclocked at 4.4GHz from the get go due to the turbo mode.
"Currently unavailable," shucks. - edit: I guess this might be to the updated region restrictions. Well, I'm not going to play it anytime soon anyway.

Is nuuvem still an option for Mordor or does the region lock prevent that?

GTA for 10 and Banner Saga for 5? Oh what a wrong timing. If only I had 15$ more to spare.

Why does the steam client update so slow these days? Mine took nearly two hours to complete and now I'm no longer in the mood to play.

A bit late, I was out, but yes definitely. I'm also on 2GB VRAM.

You can look uber l33t while running if you have a cool knife. That's it.
Earn them without paying? Pray that one drops to you.
Banner Saga is now gone so there's that
thanks for the tip. I'm going to get on that.
EDIT:

fuuuuuuuuck
I thought you weren't going to get Mordor...

Quick SteamGAF, should I buy Dragon Age: Origins?
Banner Saga is now gone so there's that
Goddamnitttttttttttttttt
Then again, I'd have to ask someone for a favor to get it since I think they really locked down on non-US buyers.

Same here. Doesn't seem worth the $50 to me, anyway. Will buy it when it's on sale, though. Guess I'll be upgrading sooner than I thought.
not now, but I'm getting it at the later date, of course. So far I probably haven't skipped any LotR game, it would be weird to start doing that now.
I thought your PC can't run anything but old Tetris (DOS one)

If you like RPGs at all, you will love DA:O.

Oh okay. I thought for a minute you were betraying me.
I need to upgrade before I start buying new-gen games. :'(

LOL, This depresses me more as I missed a pretty good deal.
It's fine though, as I'll just wait for it in the Winter Seal.

That's only the tip of the iceberg. There are knives worth upwards of 2k USD. You can't see any knives above 400$ on steam market because thats the listing limit.

I wouldn't betray you! never!
I don't plan to upgrade at least for a year still. Hopefully new gen games can be played without 6GB VRAM after all. (><)
also I upgraded to i5 from i3 not so long ago, I just can't afford doing it again so soon and with such frequency.

Make sure you get the GOTY edition.
You needed VPN for that?SUCCESS! Activated GTA Complete and also got GTA 1 & 2. So good.
Yes, it's still an option. The region lock affects only steam gifts. Steam keys are alright and still region free.

What? Am I reading this right? No cross region gifting anymore? Well fuck me for not buying it prior to release lol
On another note, I also had to use VPN to activate GTA complete when I bought it last year.

The Ultimate Edition is not avaiable in my region because EA -_-
Maybe he enjoys writing about adventure games he didn't like? xD
Kiru

Yep. Look here: https://steamdb.info/sub/16933/You needed VPN for that?
Most countries are fine though.
but but but 2GB? Why would you buy it? buy FF13 instead, at least you can play it ಠ_ಠ

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
Probably still better than xbone
