Wasn't there supposed to be a bunch of DLC for Bloodstained? Did Iga disappear for another 100 years?

Thanks for putting a really hard boss behind two scene transitions instead of just putting a checkpoint here, Blasphemous.

Cardiovorax posted:People in the RPG thread recommended Atelier Iris to me as good for people who are new to the series and maybe want the gameplay over the anime plot. Haven't gotten around to playing it yet, but it sounded like a good fit and it can be emulated on PC because it's a PS2 game. If you're the person I'm thinking of, I recommended Atelier Iris 3 specifically and also in response to a very specific kind of gameplay you were looking for; in the dark, I'd say Lydie & Suelle has the best gameplay. For what it's worth, Ryza might have supplanted Iris 3 as the answer to what you were looking for. It wasn't out yet when you asked.

Tried to buy the Untitled Goose Game on EGS (my nephew saw some youtube playthroughs and begged me). First purchase ever, 10$ coupon applied, the system asks me for my paypal info. I don't want it saving my information, obviously, so it asks for a zip code instead (?). I provide my Israeli zip code... and it's apparently invalid. No way forward, no way to make amends. A well designed machine. You'd think anyone looking to make money would at least foolproof the actual "give us your money" stage of the process. (Yes, I could provide my credit card info or have it save my paypal details, but that would be even worse)

The miniLAW talk in the previous thread had me go and finish my game before they put an ending in, then start a new game. I don't remember all these news broadcasts in my first playthrough, but I found my old friend pretty early on. 13MM SWC able to two shot most enemies or one shot and a lot of yelling if I want to bring them in and doesn't take up a lot of ammo like high explosive rounds.

Just finished life is strange 2. I did pretty okay as a big bro, besides letting daniel swear as much as he wanted. Game wasn't as good as the previous 2 games though. Too much of it was just kinda boring. Also, gently caress the police. DeadFatDuckFat fucked around with this message at 09:07 on Jan 3, 2020 |

I bought Dying Light and the season pass for Christmas and had a blast. I just started The Following DLC and man am I disappointed. Way bigger map but oh look - you have to drive around in it with a vehicle that slows down a ton when you hit zombies and then they can hit you, and if the tough ones show up they jump on the car and kill you unless you can shake them off, which never happens as you're too slow for that to work after hitting them. I also didn't realise that my grappling hook being usable more then 3 times in a row was a thing that was activated for a Christmas event, and not like that all the time. This blows - grappling around the map like spiderman was actually fun and made me feel like a badass. So while this DLC is more zombie killing, it's worse than the first game due to an unfun car you have to get around in. I'm hoping that as you improve it (or maybe get a better one later?) it becomes a Mad Max battle-wagon that eats roadkill without slowing down, but I'll be surprised.

Holy gently caress the car physics in Just Cause 3 are horrendous. I know parachute and wingsuit is how the game wants you to get around but Jesus Christ. Edit: Actually they are not too bad as long as you never ever press the brakes. If you do, the cat instantly locks up into a death spiral so instead, you have to slow down like ten seconds before a curve. Det_no fucked around with this message at 10:36 on Jan 3, 2020 |

I was hoping they'd backport their Switch improvements because at least for me it had problems with skipping when new vfx were created and the like even when it ran full FPS.

so i missed it if there was any discussion when it came out but if you like zero-knowledge puzzlers where the puzzle is just "what the gently caress do i do?" then you should check out macdows 95. i blew through like two and a half hours barely even noticing just opening files, flipping screens, breaking the icons, and playing video games. there's a specific reason why i didn't 100% it in one completion but i won't tell you why. i should've played it before the sale ended because i picked it up for like a dollar but it's really fun and you should wishlist it. it's not a great operating system.

The car does get better, though never unstoppable if you ram into a big enough horde, but it’s also kind of a grind to upgrade it too. There’s an eventual upgrade to help against the super zombies jumping on the car. One thing I think The Following does really well is the tone shift of the story into actual horror instead of “man is the real monster.” But being DLC the story is a lot sparser than the main game so it doesn’t quite land as hard as it should.

zedprime posted:Late and I'm about to make a lot of qualifications. Automachef is almost exactly the topology of Production Line. But its more of a mission based puzzler than a capitalist competition and the interface is astoundingly bad so you can probably wishlist it for a deeper sale. From the end of the old thread but thank you! I wish production line was more popular so there would be LPs by grognards so I could get schooled on logistics. Big Pharma is great all around with mission based goals and enough randomness for replayability.

holy ugly gui throwback i didn't install steam until 06..which means more than likely it was because of hl2:ep 1...which also means I didn't play hl2 until 2 years after it came out..and I have no idea why..I had a 9800 pro when HL2 came out, maybe my CPU couldn't keep up i wanna say we stopped complaining about how lovely steam was by default around 2009?

If you haven't paid yet (subs don't charge until 1 week before the end of the month unless you opt to pay early to get the games immediately) you can pause the sub, which skips that month. You can pause as often as you want, though I think you also lose the Humble store discount and Trove access while paused, which basically just makes it a slightly easier way to temporarily un-sub (and keeps you in their system, ready to be automatically charged the month after). Pausing is a much bigger deal now for anyone who got grandfathered in under the old $12/mo plan, since you'd lose that otherwise.

Yeah, I'll probably pause this month as well. I wouldn't mind having Shadows of War, but I didn't get that far into the previous game and there are better games out there worth my time. Then again, lately I'm seeing people reselling bundle contents for more than they bought them for...

Definitely a pause month. Mages and Whispers look neat, own the rest or don’t care. So if I pause now I lose the Humble Store discount immediately?

I wish the new steam client wasn't so slow. I don't know if it is just because I own a lot of games or if it is the client itself being poorly optimized or what but it can take upwards of a minute for the client to update and let me interact with it and search/scroll/etc. It wasn't a problem with the old version
