Random rear end in a top hat posted:So Elder Scrolls Online has me download 60 GBs from Steam... and what launches after that loving herculean task is an installer, which says I need to download another 87 GBs. I don't even have that much space remaining on my loving SSD, so even though I apparently already have most of the game's data (according to the forums) I can't actually finish the install without buying a loving external HD. Great loving job guys. Go to the game folder. Delete the game files. Run the launcher again (from the game folder.) You'll have to download everything still; but at least you'll have the space.

Ugh. I really wish Squeenix would do remasters with the same art style as the originals, I hate this ultra kawaii  poo poo. At least it's not as bad as their mobile ports I guess.Also, there's no gameplay in that trailer. Keep your pants on, people. Cowcaster posted:i comment not on its quality although i think it was legendarily buggy even for an square snes title, but on the fact it sold like 6 or 7 copies It was tragically flawed. Great visuals and soundtrack, more responsive combat than Mana, plus they got rid of spell grinding and 20 second charge attacks. But the level design was loving awful. Jungle maze, desert teleporter maze, cave maze, multiple literal sewer levels, HUGE castle maze, limited visibility teleporter maze, pyramid maze... you get the idea. As for "legendarily buggy", it had a hilarious stat overflow bug that let you get godlike stats early in the game.

Ceyton, it could literally be a cut and paste gameplay wise with those graphics and I'm still excited: an excuse to revisit these games! A way to own SoM on Steam! A chance to dream about them doing SD3, the best game on the SNES!

Hey Steam thread, those of you that played Tacoma a question: Am I supposed to assume that Odin was the one who opened the door into that room that the crew wasn't allowed to go into? Before you go into that room, you find his training room and his compliance score is always middling at best, and its line on the graph never goes up. So I read that as he's trying to not comply with the rules that the cooperation is trying to get him to do (kill the crew). He keeps saying "I cannot stop you from doing X" because I assume he doesn't want to stop them. It's obvious he just wants to help all of them.

When we read the explanation from someone who wrote that he needed the refund because he didn't want his parents to be stressed out when seeing the bill at the end of the month... well, it made us feel quite bad," the studio explained on Imgur. These poor people have hearts too pure for the roiling cesspool that is the Steam community. I really hope this works out for them.

I know nothing about this game, but if the game is good people will buy it eventually. Witcher 3 isn't a perfect comparison, but that game had no DRM at all and it could easily be downloaded from torrent sites. As far as I can tell that did nothing to hurt the game's success

New Steam beta has this in the changelog:quote:Steam will now use library folders on other drives to download game updates in case the primary drive doesn’t have enough space left Good news to me because my games drive keeps getting filled. Couldn't download 5.5GB update because it needed 35GB of free space. Now it can be stored elsewhere, yay.

We've actually reached an age where it's easier to buy a game than to pirate it. That was not always the case. Until Steam became a big deal, you could buy the game for 40-60 dollars, install it across five CDs, and then have to keep one in the drive at all times to make it work. If your CD is scratched, or your computer doesn't like the game, gently caress you because Wal-Mart or Best Buy aren't doing returns on software. Or you could pirate it, install it, copy an executable, and maybe also download a cracked patch if there is one, and play the game. The big cracking groups bundled the crack with the game and there were never viruses in there, or at least not in anything I installed. Usually the pirated version would run better because it didn't run the copy protection stuff. Now you click a couple buttons, pay less than 30 dollars, download it, and play it. If you pirate it, you have to find a copy, download it, make sure it doesn't have a bitcoin mining virus or cryptolocker, copy the crack, get a virus anyway, get an angry letter from your ISP, and then every day or two you manually update the game with cracked patches. Repeat steps 1-5 each time you patch. I assume most people pirating games now are dumb kids and people who live in regions where you can't get the games you want.

Cursory research on DRM-cracking would tell you you're vastly overestimating both the dangers AND the difficulties of pirating a game. However, you're pretty much right that digital services made a decent dent on piracy - not just in games, but in everything else, really. Continued support for your games, online MP, even download speeds are faster. Steam gets max speed here 100% of the time, torrents depend on seeding and FTP servers...well, I downloaded the Fantasy Strike beta last weekend and I got 10% of my full download speed.

I thought The Crew was pretty fun, but it pisses me the hell off. I played it when it came out in '14 December, and wanted to get back to it a couple times since then to replay it /w DLCs and updates. Thing is, they never bothered to implement a way to start a new game. It's mind-boggling. You'd have to buy a second copy on a different Uplay account to do it. I don't think I've ever played another game where you straight up couldn't delete your character or restart the campaign, and The Crew has been like that for nearly three years now.

I figure it's more that ODIN's independence score gets really high but compliance could be a part of it. The way I saw it, it's one of those "There's no rule that says a dog can't play basketball" type situations. There's nothing in ODIN that says "Don't open the door for no reason" so the door is opened for no reason. It is definitely coded in ODIN to tell the contractors that they shouldn't go in the door that is open because only authorized employees are allowed so ODIN says you definitely shouldn't go in there. ODIN is not allowed to interfere with contractors, only record and report their actions, hence the constant refrain that he cannot stop them from doing whatever they want to do with that open door that they shouldn't go in and is open. Admittedly not the most original character moment for an AI to have but it's fine.

I kinda just wish since it's an original remaster and not a port of some mobile poo poo that it looked it. Cause those screenshots are incredibly unflattering and if they wanted to do a cutesy art style it would have looked a million times better cel shaded a la Wind Waker or DQVIII. Right now it looks like an uprezzed mobile port, which I guess could be the case if the Vita was the main dev platform.

IMO Gaslamp made a couple big mistakes in their basic design process that cost them time and money. They decided to make their own engine from scratch, and it felt like they were never able to fully commit to either a Anno-style logistics chain game, or a lower scale Dwarf Fortress style settlement manager where you build individual dwellings instead of just slapping down some road and a generic dwelling/residential zoning. Comparatively, Brace Yourself is using the Unreal engine and it sounds like they've fully committed to the higher-level Anno/Tropico/Cities Skylines style of gameplay.

Enter the Gungeon is getting another update soon.quote:The focus of the update is on community requested changes, quality of life and convenience features, hundreds of new and substantially more powerful synergies, a bunch of new guns and items, and getting revenge on the Gungeon’s most hated resident, our new boss. Of course there will also be new rooms, npcs, secrets, and a new mini-boss. Our primary focus was to make the Gungeon a more generous place, while retaining options, for players who really engage with the difficulty of the game.
