Damn, December already? I'm not even finished with Halloween yet.

 

[hohoXD123]

Wow, I...I didn't actually buy anything during the sale O_O What madness is this?

part of me wanted to get some thoughts from steamgaf but the other part wanted to be meta

Best arcade-y baseball game on Steam is Super Mega Baseball, it's so good. And the way it handles scaling difficulty should be emulated by all games.

I kinda think OOTP Baseball 17 being in the bundle may have been a mistake, they usually bundle the prior year after it is delisted (which would be OOTP 16 which hasn't been bundled yet afaik).

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Went back to Bioshock 2 remastered. Goddamn that game is all over the place technically. Had couple of crashes too. It's also interesting how it is 2007 FPS: The Game littered with actually awesome parts.

 

[Madn]

Are the extra games after a week for BTA in the Humble Bundles gone?

 

[Kiru]

To Hell with you Chrom!

 

[Tizoc]

Ugh Bionic Commando's checkpoint system is ass. Doesn't help that I am now in an area with 2-3 flying mechs and no rockets to kill them with.
I have to swing past them to get an 8 ammo rocket launcher but even that won't be enough to kill them =_=.

when will it be appropriate to break out the holiday avatars?

 

[JaseC]

when will it be appropriate to break out the holiday avatars?

December 1st through the 25th has always made the most sense to me. December is the month that plays host to Christmas and obviously there's no point in having a Christmas-oriented avatar after Christmas itself is over.

 

[Corpekata]

It's never appropriate to have holiday avatars.

Oh-ho-ho!

it already is.

Not Steam, but do I risk my account when I buy games from Origin via VPN? Cant buy the Medal of Honor War Chest since its not avaiable in germany

I think EA retroactively cancelled some Dragon Age: Inqusition pre-orders that were purchased with the help of a VPN, but other than that it has, to the best of my knowledge, been happy to look the other way, presumably because Origin is at best a rounding error when it comes to marketshare on third-party titles and so there's no pressure from partners to act.

Great

I am currently buying tons of late 90s and early 2000 Ego-Shooters since I will finally get a new Notebook later this week and I totally forgot that Medal of Honor was once a thing
Will buy it around christmas then, I guess Origin will do a sale then, too.

This seems a little excessive, having a temporary December thread until MrOrange puts up a "real" thread.

We should have either gone back to the November thread and waited for MrOrange or this thread should just be the December thread.

Speaking of Dragon Age, The Inquisition GOTY edition (Origin) its $6.38 from Game UK http://www.game.co.uk/en/dragon-age-inquisition-game-of-the-year-edition-809074

(I never finished the original DA because the gameplay was so boring)

 

[morningbus]

You're just jealous.

In both "should" scenarios neither have me making the thread.

We're really gonna start having temporary threads for a day when the full thread can barely crack 150 pages anymore?

 

[Anteater]

finished Lords of shadow 2 revelations, it's better than the main game, still has some of the design flaws with enemy designs but it got rid of all the fillers from the first two games like the stupid ass wheel puzzles, stealth sections and what not, so it was enjoyable especially for 2 bucks, game looks good too

[Tizoc]

Fuck this stupid ass checkpoint system in Bionic Commando
IT's making the last stretch of the game a needless pain in the ass

 

[CecilRousso]

(I never finished the original DA because the gameplay was so boring)

Inquisition is much worse, but for that price I guess it could be a descent purchase for those who don't have anything else at all to play.

 

[Tizoc]

I'm switching to X-mas avy after PSX '16.

 

[morningbus]

= you jealous

Me being jealous would have me putting up DEC OT2 tomorrow.

Which is... totally something I'm not going to do.

 

[TetraxShards]

Whyyyy

Oh dear god no.

Humble Tycoon Bundle.

I think it's time to buy YouTubers Life.

[Teggy]

Would love to play Darksiders again now, but jumped in on FFXV. And I still need to try and mix in New Vegas, that game just keeps going and going...

I hope the PC port of FFXV has some streamlined menus, because doing things with the controller is pretty messy.

Where can I get this for $2?

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

I still don't have my SoM key after 21 hours but they haven't refunded me either.

Fwiw, Ubi emailed me that the codes will be emailed in a few days.

hmm it was 2 bucks during the sale on gamersgate but not anymore

it's currently still 2 bucks on nuuvem but not sure if it's region locked:

Are the extra games after a week for BTA in the Humble Bundles gone?

They aren't completely gone, but they happen less often. Honestly once they changed it so you had to bta even in the first week to get them, they became mostly pointless.

What kind of game is Big Pharma? I always figured it was theme hospital clone, but actually looking at the screens, not so sure anymore. Are you manufacturing drugs? Is it actually a secret Factorio prequel?

Reached Anor Londo in Dark Souls PTD last week, but my motivation to play has dropped since getting to those archers. Closest I've got is taking the one on the left out, but then being knocked off immediately by the one on the right.

Urgh, looks like no UK on that on. Will hope on another sale for us UK folk. The current Steam price is just stupid.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Meh. Only want the Democracy Code but dont care about the other games.
Its always hard to argue for me when I only want one key and its not Tier 1

Holy shit what a ride (just did it for the first time).

I'm playing Her Story but I have no idea what I'm doing. All I figured out is

Spoiler

that there's twins and one of the twins her husband got murdered and that he was cheating.

Halp pls

 

[Tizoc]

Yeeeeeeeeah fuck these stupid ass designed encounters in Bionic Commando.
The game was OK up until the final stretch and taht's where I'm calling it quits.
Gonna dedicate time to replaying Yaiba and Darksiders 1 again as I proceed to clear my backlog.

You may want to spoiler out that stuff. Good lad!

heh I had PMed him the other day regarding making the thread but his reply only came as soon as I put this one up :3 Hence why i added that this is a Temp. one.
I'll leave it up to Stump and MRORANGE to decide anyways, they're both Veterans far as SteamGAF go to me.

It just seems very silly to have this dueling thread drama month after month. I appreciate MRORANGE's work on making OP's as much as anyone, the one OT i made for a game was bloody hard work. But all we need is an opening post, which you ably provided. No need to wait around for another one. As Stump said

Some ground rules for future months:
- As we tell literally every community, no person is entitled to make a thread.
- If someone is signed up to make an OT and can't, they really should let other people know in advance. It's ok, there's no punishment.
- Let's call 6PM eastern on the 1st the rough deadline for when we make a call about whether or not to call in a replacement. If the designated OP drops in before 6PM eastern to say they're delayed, then we go until midnight eastern. If they don't drop in, or if they do but still can't get it done by midnight, others can step up
- In the future instead of merging, I will lock.
- It's more important to have an OP than to have a super detailed great amazing resourceful OP.

It just distracts attention from what we should be discussing, which is anime.

Speaking of which, I picked up a very interesting looking game during the sale, a recently released title called Sethian. We've all seen the film Arrival, right? It's similar to that, in that you have to decipher an alien language in order to uncover the mysteries that alien civilisation holds. This is what the game looks like.

 

[Tizoc]

Right so I got NVidia Inspector to behave nicely with Bionic Commando and apply MSAA. I have FXAA disabled along with AF at x16

Is this an OK output? Anything I should edit to make it look better?

I know I said I'd stop playing Bionic Commando for now but it's for future reference when setting up other games
