However he's a big baby who can't handle criticism and doesn't want anyone to call him out for making a political curator so he's trying to pass it off as a utilitarian emotionless list so you have stuff like the dire warning that oh no Cloning Clyde is locked to 30. And as a result it's doing more harm than good. Ethics in games journalism I guess, gotta be objective. lol just lol

Ok so Metro 2033 had a "point of no return" shop (I think at Polis station) where you could then use military grade rounds without worrying that you were shooting your money away. Does Last Light have something similar? I'm just finishing the "Bandits" level.

This is what the stupid part is: Baluders gate top review: "30 fps lock." Instead of an actual honest review, it's 30fps.

I have put some games on my wishlist due to a curator but otherwise I have never bought a game based on a curator's opinion. Literally their only use to me is letting me know certain games exist at all. Although nowadays I keep my eyes on the new releases/upcoming page just to see all the bad games coming in so I usually don't miss the good ones anymore.

Oh cool, I found out I can unlock Alice: MR's framerate by editing the .ini file. Thanks Framerate Police. theultimo posted:This is what the stupid part is: I see an Iwata Head as the top curator and a giant paragraph as the top review. Regardless it's an old rear end game with a legacy, I don't believe that many will be dissuaded from buying an old game because it's graphics are archaic.

It's the best version of a game that is being played right now on the largest annual fighting game tournament. Yes, it is worth the asking price. If it will make you like or not fighting games, that is another matter altogether.

I've finally, thank gently caress, upgraded my internet to a semi-decent download rate, so now I can download something in my steam backlog in a couple of hours rather than a day or so. However, I can no longer find the setting that tells steam my approximate download rate so it's still estimating 10+ hour download times when I start to install something. This is minor, I know, but it is irritating. Anyone have an idea where this setting lives nowadays? It doesn't seem to be set by the "Limit download to" rate.

Doesn't it just figure out the estimate by your average functional download speed? Like gas mileage for a car...it's only accurate once you've gone a ways. I'm sure it updates your D?L times once you've been downloading for a while, no?

The most important thing about total biscuit is that Titans Souls called him toiletbiscuit and he had a huge crypissbaby tantrum and sent his fans to poo poo up the reviews, so Titan Souls owns

It would be way easier and faster to tag the games that are 60fps. That way you wouldn't have to tag every single game for which high fps is irrelevant and also impossible because it's decades old. I thought buying games and not playing them was the point of Steam but we've evolved so you can put them in collections without even making a purchase. The new stamp collecting.

Between that and Shadow of the Colossus, yeah, there's a good precedent for Boss Rush games.

I hope you guys don't mind self promotion. My little game just got launched on Steam this morning http://store.steampowered.com/app/280360/ It's a space game where you manage/control a crew and a fleet. SO it's a bit RTS/Strategy. A lot of goons helped me with it so I'm really excited to be able to have it go live!

Drifter posted:I think we've progressed beyond manual settings like that. Yeah the dynamic time remaining on the download screen is accurate - it's just the initial estimate when you start the install that is off. It's no big deal, like I said, just it's odd you can't change the setting any more.

Does Last Light have something similar? I'm just finishing the "Bandits" level. You're about half through the game, but in Last Light the very final store will show up when you've completed your mission and returned home. You'll know it because you can trade in anything for anything for free. After that the final battle begins and you can dump what you have left. You can start using them more and more excessively when you find what you're looking for though. If you don't care about plot at all, the free shop is at D6, but after you've recovered the Dark One you can more or less go nuts, though you don't need to.

Might be late to the party here, but you should add more descriptions. DotA for example has no jump button, but it does have some abilities that feature jumping (most obviously Juggernaut's Omnislash). Keep it authentic.
