What in the gently caress. http://store.steampowered.com/app/475430/ quote:Prepare yourself for a first person shooter with full motion video cutscenes ! In this game, you will play as a random French Canadian who need to infiltrate a North Korean base with his friend Jesus. Will this dude succeed his quest ? On the other hand this review is something else. quote:I've constantly been criticized for making comments about the developer and ranting about the "how did this game get on Steam" effect instead of making a review of the actual game, however, there are some games that really need it. This is one of those games.

Steam reviews should have a character limit. Also some sort of algorithm that automatically deletes any review that is autobiographical.

Guy Mann posted:I think the nod that they're mentioning is a part where you visit a bar and they have dozens of drinks that were contributed by Kickstarter backers as pledge rewards. Yeah, but there's atleast one character from ROM who makes an appearance in Valhalla (and it's unfortunately the worst loving character), and Dana makes references to the other characters of ROM at times as well.

I still hate the fact that they made a catgirl who dislikes cat puns. It's just wrong and a waste of a cute character design.

I played through the entire game and didn't run into her at all. Looking at the steam achievements there are some characters that make an appearance if you serve the right drink at the right time, I'm assuming she's one of those.

Freak Futanari posted:I still hate the fact that they made a catgirl who dislikes cat puns. It's just wrong and a waste of a cute character design. Everything about her character was awful, whether it was to move the plot forward or not. She existed to be as spiteful as possible as a puzzle for the plot, but she never evolves beyond the frigid personality. Stella in Valhalla is the complete opposite and she's great. dmboogie posted:Ah. I played through the entire game and didn't run into her at all. Oh, huh. That's fascinating. I had no idea she was optional content, which is ambitious, but... still a shame that now I feel like I just got really unlucky and had a worse time in the game, as a complete fluke. I still want to play through ROM again sometime to get the "good" ending, but it's not high on my list. Maybe I will after they add in the voice acting patch they're working on. Or maybe that will drive me away, depending on the quality.

GMG 5-pack gave me: Bridge Constructor (some sort of bridge constructor simulator or something, rated mostly positive overall but mixed lately) Shattered Haven (puzzle game of some kind, mostly negative) Steel Storm Burning Retribution (a mixed review shmup) Data Hacker: Initiation (RPG maker game) and Call of Duty: Black Ops (which I don't own!) tempted to do that again but I should probably save my money for the sale. Some dude in the Summer Sale thread got 2 Far Cry Primal's and a Witcher 3 key unless he's photoshopping things~ e: I have no self control and bought another 5 pack, got Bridge Constructor and Shattered Haven again, and the sequel game to Data Hacker (corruption), but I also got The Inner World which is worth 15 bucks and has very positive reviews http://store.steampowered.com/app/251430/ And Incitement 3, another RPG maker game, hooray. No more of this

Fun Times! posted:During this sale I'll be on the lookout for fun and easy local coop games to play with my girlfriend who hasn't played a game since the original Sims. Any suggestions? Hey so I noticed this post getting lost in people wanking off over the bartender game. Guacamelee is a game that a lot of people enjoy, it's bright and colorful and is basically a metroidvania where all of the characters are luchadores. It offers same-screen coop. The game can be difficult at times, but so long as one of you can defeat a challenge (like say a hard jump) it'll let you continue on. People complain about a difficulty spike later on, so maybe this isn't an optimal choice, but it's a really great couch coop game that isn't too hard to learn. It's been out for awhile, and you should get whatever the most recent release is called (I forget the name of it, but basically they re-released the game and redid a bunch of stuff in good ways) Helldivers is a really great coop twinstick shooter and should also be pretty easy to learn, it's a more recent game so you may have already heard of it but basically you and up to 3 friends fight hordes of enemies on a shared screen while trying to accomplish various objectives. It takes a very tongue-in-cheek approach to the setting, like if Starship Troopers was even way more self-aware. You can choose what kind of enemies you want to fight based on location, including bugs, robots, etc. Loves in a Dangerous Spacetime is a bright and colorful game that kind of reminds me of the Space Alert board game, you basically each control a character walking around on a ship in order to use that ship's turrets, engines, shields, etc. Pretty hectic, fun game and it's also got a neat bright and colorful thing going for it, if you don't mind all of the neon. Good coop title in any case. There's basically all of the LEGO games, which are supposedly great coop but I haven't played any of them Metal Slug, you probably already know what this game is People have told me that Magicka is a good coop game, but I haven't played it FORCED is supposed to be a pretty good coop game but I haven't actually played it Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara had some forum love for awhile, it's an old-school side-scrolling fighting game but in a D&D setting. Pretty enjoyable overall .... Gauntlet is apparently on Steam? Classic series, probably good but I don't really know There's a site called cooptimus which lists basically every coop game for each platform, what kind of coop it offers (couch vs online vs lan or some combo of those, split vs shared screen, etc)

I don't see a games thread for that bartender game and it's being talked about here so I'll ask... What drink is that cat eared red headed chick with the robot eye asking for? The drink in honor of a friend. Browsed the whole list, didn't get one clue. Tried the grizzly drink, nada.

I like Chariot, it's a pretty simple platformer where you take a King to his rightful burial spot. It's got special challenge routes for two players that are super hard/impossible to do alone, but aren't too bad to do together.

Testekill posted:Enhanced Edition of Icewind Dale ain't worth it just because of the fact that they added a story mode (As in your party is super overpowered and can easily beat the game with zero difficulty) into a game that is literally a traditional dungeon crawler with no story. Now I can understand something like that in a story orientated RPG but not when the whole game is literally just fighting through various modules. Icewind Dale actually has a pretty cool story even though your party is just a bunch of faceless adventurers. It pales in comparison to a Baldur's Gate, but you have definitely a reason for exploring, fighting and looting. I like the last minute plot-twist that the narrator is in fact the main bad guy who is still pretty pissed about being beat by your dudes.

QuarkJets posted:Hey so I noticed this post getting lost in people wanking off over the bartender game. Addendum: Make sure to pick the Guacamelee Super Turbo Championship Edition and not Gold Edition, especially if you worry about the difficulty spike. Super Turbo is basically the same game, but it - added a completely new area and a new fun boss, also one or two new enemy types - added a new ability called Super Intenso that is basically Goku Mode and it makes those certain difficult boss fights a lot easier - toned down the dank memes a hell of a lot. There's still some wacky posters around here and there, but not nearly as many as there were in Gold Edition. Gold Edition is still good in itself, but there's no reason to buy it now that Super Turbo exists.
