Still blows my mind that you can get Planetary Annihilation for $1.
I remember when they were justifying the $90 price on Steam.

I also dont get how Lichdom Battle Mage is so often in 1$ tiers in bundles. Its not a good game, but also not bad.
Death of the Outsider pre-load is live. 23.39GB install/20GB download.
Edit: It unlocks first in AU, NZ and Asia at 1am AEST*.
* Unless Valve's finally fixed the countdown timer, in which case it's 12am AEST.
I am still waiting for my code from Play-Asia. But again i am still playing Prey so XD

Being priced at $1 is not an incredible deal since it only puts the game in the same basket as 7% of the game on Steam. It is not an insignificant percentage. The market is tight.

I think I'm in for Pang Adventures and Poncho
I don't think so unless they added them later. I think not having them was a deliberate choice in that you actually have to pay attention to the writing/story/context in contrast to MMO type design where all the text is just fluff no-one reads and you can just mindlessly follow waypoints to the next spot to farm 50 rare orc scalps or whatever.
I'll admit it can make it a little rough if you haven't played for a while though.

Maybe...
I've played both. Really not the same.
Agreed with everything.
Oh man I want to play D:OS 2 so bad! I even have but installing windows for it feels like a pain.XD
Wonder if when they've had the Kickstarter and gave out beta keys, and having the game in EA somehow hurt the launch of the game? Like there wouldn't be as much fanfare since the game has been available already? Like somehow the hype doesn't build as strongly? Not sure, just wondering out loud.

Picked up manual Samuel and Silent Age from that bundle, they both seem interesting enough and also relatively short.

I had to fight myself to not put all the other steelbook games at $5 in my cart. The steel book cases are really tight though.

This one was good though to make up for giving way 3 Nekopara games yesterday and to be sure people will still take the risk of getting anime tiddy games.

It's nice to have, but honestly, during gameplay looking stuff up in a digital copy is often more convenient.

Every couple of years I buy a soccer game and get a solid dozen hours of fun doing nothing but performing dangerous slide tackles and seeing how fast I can get red carded.
How does the physics engine in pes compare to the joy of Fifa?

It's not worth the chance of catching anime tiddy games.
And one of my Steam friends is a close IRL ladyfriend, so don't any of you fuckers try it.

My group is scattered these days so we use Roll20. I usually have the books on my second screen if I have the digital version. Most of the better ones will be searchable anyway, though Humble books generally aren't. I have Pathfinder, Doctor Who and a few others from them and none of them are searchable IIRC.
Played in some amazing games of 2nd Ed WHFRP back in the day. Absolutely hilarious system, and also brutally unforgiving.
I hope we get a Dark Heresy bundle at some stage now.

I have now come to accept that as much as I want to like them, I just don't find old-school cRPGs fun.
If I hadn't already redeemed it in early access, I'd raffle my D:OS 2 key =/
Sorry Durante D:

I'd probably like Baldur's Gate more than I do if I could understand 2.5e. I barely understand how magic works in 5e as it is.
The first Original Sin seems mechanically overwhelming to me, but it also seems like the kind of RPG I would love to take the time to learn.

I thought Warhammer 40K was the one with miniatures.
fuck Warhammer.
40k is where its at. Accept the darkness into your heart. For the emperor!

Given we're finally not getting a shit version I'm going to finally give PES a go
Sad to hear there's none of the passion of Fifa tho

If you're only interested in the Warhammer Fantasy lore, then you'll really want more than just the core rulebook from that. There's only 14 pages of lore, though there's a good section on religion in Warhammer Fantasy too. Going up a few tiers would give you a lot more lore for the setting. Or you could search for an old 8th Edition Warhammer Fantasy Battles rulebook.
Yes, the setting was recently rebooted, changing it from a rather unique setting with a fantastical take on the Holy Roman Empire, to fantasy 40k, killing most of it's unique selling points in the process especially when just brought in goddamn Sigmarines and gave them all different colour schemes including blue cause they need to stick goddamn SPEES MERHEENS into everything goddamn it all goddamn cunting cunts not giving me a Bretonnia update for a decade then killing the world to stick in FANTASY SPEES MERHEENS... and breath.Thankfully the video games are ignoring that and sticking to the interesting setting. Thankfully.
No, you don't need miniatures to play it. It's a roleplaying game, the game takes place in your imagination. Miniatures can help, especially when it comes to combat encounters, but they aren't necessary.
Yeah I remember being very frustrated with Original Sin over how hard it was, don't know when it clicked with me, think it was when I realised how powerful it was to use elemental things against the enemy, like setting up traps with oil barrels and then blowing them up. And also I remember sending on guy to try and get one or two enemies to follow him into traps. I really liked how creative one could get with the combat, more so than one usually sees in cRPGs.

I use the minis from the D&D board game for our rol sessions, and I'm gonna get my Dark Souls board game soon, and of course we'll use them.
