I'm still hoping they DO dissapear with the money. Star Citizen is the best idea for a scam. If nothing else (the pricetags), that alone would have steered me away from spending money.

It walks like a scam and quacks like a scam. If it turns out to be a great crowdsourced piece of software... that's the less-likely scenario. Hats off to the people who bought spaceships to resell them at a markup.

Prolly gonna finish Witcher 3 (level 25 atm) -- I have been binging, then taking like a week break. Working pretty well.

Thinking about something TBS. Perhaps going through Invisible Inc or XCOM on a harder difficulty; may just play Final Fantasy Tactics patched with the WoTL translation. And/or Banner Saga.

So, RONIN is really fun so far.

Good diversion from Axiom Verge, which had been on my backlog. I'm stuck and going to have to look some poo poo up on that one.

Either way it's def. worth 12 dollars imo if you're even a little interested, which is like 70+% off from its usual steam price

curious what your av is from; is that the dude from black sails? am I missing new black sails where he has a revolver instead of a flintlock?

Well that's pretty damning, maybe I'll give that one a pass after all :(

I haven't finished Axiom Verge, and it has its annoying points (the ones pointed out, though I find them quite a bit less damning) but mainly its having to google what the gently caress to do next instead of having the process of finding it be fun. I mean, for being made by one guy.

I still think its cool as poo poo, and the music that dude made is god drat good. I also feel like it oozes a very dark atmosphere, and the music complements this very well. It does some stuff mechanically i found really refreshing, particularly compared to most indie 2d platformers.

I mean drat dude, I don't even like retro-styled stuff or chiptunes or any of that. His poo poo bangs, I love cranking the bass before starting Axiom.

I'm still having fun with RONIN, though it gets a lot tougher than this. I didn't think it would be as challenging as it is. Good stuff.

Giant Beast did a quicklook if you want a longer taste.

It's good, but gets hard! I'm also dumb, so YMMV.
