Tried out Transistor. I knew the aesthetic/music/etc. would be great but had heard mixed things about the combat. Loving it personally, enjoy the real-time/turn based hybrid and I hadn't read about the ability combination system which seems fun.

Might be hard to stick to my plan of keeping everything under 2 hours until the next round of Humble Bundles.

Do you find the story hard to follow? I started playing as well and apart from a few major points of the story I find it quite hard to follow whats going on. Beautiful game though.

Some aspects are explained late game. Also, playing it a second time (it is not long) will help make things very clear.

Has anyone tried out Risen 3's DLC? Some of it sounds interesting, and Risen 3 complete edition is a better deal than buying the game and adding DLC.

I think there won't be any sales regarding Resident Evil remaster and dlcs.
I was also waiting for Dark Souls II sale and it doesn't seem to happen either. (I will grab Dark Souls I at 66% discounted price if no other flash sale happens).

I believe you mean Lords of Shadow ;3

The first game is OK and is rather GoW-like. 2 improves on the combat but is IMO a worse game than 1.

If anything get LoS 1 at least if you wanta GoW-like game.

Just gonna try the demo real quick in case.

Oh and thanks whoever mentioned that freedom planet above, I bought that too cause it looks so like a cool genesis game.

Batteries the CRISIS!
Got into one of the good rooms early yesterday, so we made good progress but apparently petered out ... didn't even make it to Level 100,000. I'm in another good one today, though, so we'll see how it goes. I mostly bought Wormholes this time and I'm not buying any damage-boosting upgrades, so I guess I'm playing the game correctly now?

Anyway, the day that just ended's stats:

Level: 96,960

HP: 71,125,000
Base auto-fire DPS: 811,000,000
Base click damage: 110

Light Armor: 11
Heavy Armor: 10
Energy Shields: 10
Personal Training: 10
Cybernetic Enhancements: 6
Auto-fire Cannon: 15
Advanced Targeting: 10
Farming Equipment: 10
AFK Equipment: 10
Level 1 Sentry Gun: 10
Level 2 Sentry Gun: 10
Level 3 Sentry Gun: 10
Level 1 Drones: 7
Armor Piercing Round: 10
Explosive Rounds: 0
Lucky Shot: 5
Boss Loot: 0

Elemental Damage: 7s across the board

About 226B gold unspent.

I made sure to start joining a room immediately at reset today. We are at about 16,000 so far, so it looks good. Yesterday was pathetic - our room never even made it to 10,000.

Had a friend whose team was over 3,000,000. May try to join his game today. Not that it matters, I don't seem to get extra cards or anything.

Yes, the key to this game is to start when the game starts.That is why I could not go above level 5000 but 15 minutes has passed and we are around 10000.

Was DARK SOULS™: Prepare To Die Edition ever put up for a daily or flash sale? Sitting at 66% off right now.

Or would it be better to just go for Dark Souls 2: Sins of the Scholar instead? Never played a Souls game before. The closest, if it could be considered close in difficulty, to that type of game is Monster Hunter for me and hunting the monsters there.

Minigame is so ridiculous now. I just start it for the cards.

It's been ridiculous since people scripted. It's IMPOSSIBLE to join reddits rooms since they don't have a list of numbers up at the same time and going. Same for 4chan/et. al. It's a total crap shoot if you "win" a wormhole room.

I'm in one right now that is jumping but isn't a reddit room it seems. We'll see if I reach the cap but after 6+ days of attempting to be in the jumping rooms to help, I'm done. I dunno who at Valve thought limiting you rejoining rooms was a good idea but it isn't fun in the slightest.

It hasn't been on sale. Both games are great, but I recommend starting with the first one and making your way to the second.

.

The correct way is not to do any dps and buy only health.
So i guess that's a yes.

I got into a reddit room: Level 85000+ after 4 minutes...
Dont do any dps. No clicks, no nukes, no auto cannons. nothing.
The first 100k levels were just spam. Now the game begins.

I just noticed on Scholar of the First Sin that both the upgrade and the full game have the same price 19.99€ but with different discounst 20 and 50 %. That can't be right, the full game was at 29.99 iirc.

20 minutes for more disappointment. I'm sure Trails in the Sky will never be a Daily Deal or Flash Sale this Summer Sale :(

Maybe if I act defeated GabeN will have pity on me!

To all the people who used a wormhole on level 495, skipping us to level 502: Why?

Also, why do I care? I know I shouldn't. I'm not even getting cards for this.

I believe that's correct if you only owned Dark Souls 2. If you own Dark Souls 2 + season pass then the upgrade is cheaper. Speaking from personal experience. My upgrade price is $13 because I own both. My friend who only owns the game and not the season pass is the same as the 50% off price ($24.99).

I joined as soon as it started hoping that would get a better group this time, and am on level 9,300. A friend is on 380K. So much for that.

I dunno. I remember the game being at 29.99€ and the upgrade at 19.99€, but now they have the same price. Maybe it's being prepared to show up on daily/flash.

It's been this way since day one of the sale, though.

I do hope it goes up as a daily in 7 minutes do I can upgrade cheaper than $13. I just want this and Geometry Wars 3.
