It already supports crossplay with the xb1, so I assume so.
i think i would've remembered something that's this bad
it's not like it took me that many tries, the trivia got me once because the trivia is stupid, but i got the killer right at the first try since it was really obvious by then
i wouldn't even call this the worst part of persona 4, but it sure is the one with the least positive things about it

it ruins your time played stats if you care about that
Even in games I already got the cards?

For Honor or Sniper Elite 4, I don't really care for the multiplayer in For Honor so I would mainly be interested in the single player campaign, on the other hand I never finished Sniper Elite 3 but this new one looks neat, what do?

no...it only idles games with card drops remaining

Same opinion - which is also a bit of a shame too, as there are some great games that are less excessive in that regard but the tropey nature of many often colours my perception of those games meaning have to be pushed to try some games. That's changing gradually but there's only so far one can go in term of what you mention
Hit the level cap in Atelier but some of the later game normal battles are just demolishing me. Granted it's a bit self-inflicted since I keep running into monsters when I have those 5 pips lit up on my minimap while collecting materials. I definitely need more cash to enhance my gear and also work on combining better traits.

I just reached rank 14 in the beta. Top 700 players. And all I want is this game on Steam, the devs have sort of confirmed it once. But they're kinda iffy about it now. Would love to know for sure though, GOG Galaxy is a fucking terrible client to use for it. Specially getting friend matches to work.
Also the main reason I fear it won't come to steam is because of the micro transactions, though I guess it would just launch GOG on top of Steam like uplay does.

Hidden Folks looks and sounds delightful. Just saw the RPS piece about it. Wish there were a GOG version but will likely still grab it on Steam.

I actually wonder if we will get it at the same time as the console version this time.
I need to play more games that give out cards.... I have pretty bad luck of only being in the mood for non card games lately

Yeah but there are easy on the eyes variant schemes and inverted options, thankfully.
so talked to my brother and apparently i still have some more game to go, but it timeskipped cos persona 4 is stupid
so either i load back a savestate i had somewhere in the middle of the dungeon and spend those 20 days raising my social links or those days go to waste
i wouldn't mind going back to my savestate but that fucking eye monster fight is so fucking grindy and boring, it's awful
i think i'm gonna keep playing from the timeskip on
i guess i won't max out rise or whatever

Does anyone know if Dusty Revenge from the Freedom bundle is the regular version or the version with the art book? I already have the game, but they don't sell the art book separately.
I just activated my copy and... I still can't tell for sure. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't have the art book. It just shows as Dusty Revenge:Co-Op Edition in my license list.
I think so!

I actually didn't buy Xrd when I had the chance because whatever they are doing has confused me very much. It seems like they keep re-releasing the game with new added characters plus a balance update, like the older SSF2 and UMK3 days? It's so fucking archaic. Every fighter that plans on progressively developing should do seasons on the same base like SFV and KI are doing.
I know that rpg maker games are usually dismissed outright as bundle fodder around here (including by me), but has anyone played Echoes of Aetheria by any chance? I believe it was bundled recently...somewhere.
Decided to give it a go just now, playing the tutorial for 25mins or so, and holy shit are the first impressions good. Story starts off nice with a kidnaping and you in pursuit of the kidnappers, with a thief-ish style lady showing up and joining you (nothing amazingly original or anything but its well done and gets you right into the action), the overworld graphics are your typical rpgmaker fare, although they are quite crisp and they do a lot of neat things with the sprites (much like FF6 did a lot of emoting with not a lot of animation) and the sound, which is great so far (no vocie acting tho). But the battles are whats really cool, it reminds me a lot of Breath of Fire, with it's isometric perspective. You can even move your guys around in battle to position behind people and shit so they dont take damage.
Seems to have a nice selection of skills per character too, already gained a few new ones including passive skills when I got to level 2 (im a big fan of passive skills in games). Im really impressed, I guess the very positive rating it has is for something afterall.
Writing seems alright so far, has a bit of "written by a fan" feel, but nothing offensively bad, just a litte amateur hour (much like if you or me would write a game lol).

Granted I don't know much about RPG maker, but given I thought it makes things that look like To The Moon, that looks kind of impressive.
FUCK YEAAAAAHH
Why are those two front liners so low in HP as opposed to everyone else?
that is a fantastic question lol. Especially since as far as I can tell so far, enemies dont attack anyone directly behind someone in the front :3
so yeah, finished the tutorial and this is all sorts of fantastic. There's weapon crafting, skill augmenting, runes for weapons and gear. They keep splitting up the team and aking you use everyone which I always apreciate too. Nice surprise so far.
even the animations and spell effects are good.

I really don't understand the hate for "easy" game engines. There are some really good games from RPG Maker.

I hate arcsys' model but gotta give credit where credit's due. Xrd series is the best fighting game out now and it deserves to be rewarded. I even bought the bs deluxe which i rarely do
To the moon itself didn't use that many stock RPG Maker assets from what I remember.
In fact, this game Echoes seem to be using way more of them.
But the battle system looks really cool. You can do all sorts of unique customization for your own game. In fact people have done really weird shit on RPG Maker, like shmups.

Yes yes that's all fine and good but does it have any sex cards? Maybe as an instant action? Mayhap adorned with art of a bar wench presenting her bare hindquarters?
As a person that's made a bunch of terrible life choices with over a thousand hours in CS:GO being one of them, I can support this. CS:GO players are garbage nightmare people to be avoided at all costs. I recommend blocking if they also have CS:GO items as an inventory showcase, you can never be too careful.
I liked her so much until that horrible reveal. Ah well, nobody's perfect.
At least she thinks it's non-fiction and historical.
Yeahhhh this, the delayed releases of the PC versions, and the lack of crossplay are what have really gotten me disinterested in Xrd despite it looking so god damn phenomenal in all other regards. Since Rev 2 is going to be released on PC in sync with consoles, I think it'll be my first foray into it.
So my understanding is that Xrd -SIGN- was the original game release. Then Xrd Revelator came out as the next iteration as a separate game release that made -SIGN- redundant. Revelator 2 is going to be DLC for Revelator, so it doesn't require a full new game release, but I don't know if the balance/system changes will be exclusive to purchasing Rev 2 or if they will be free for all Rev owners with only the two characters being the required purchase for current Rev owners.

Hi guys,
thesaucetastic just reported a bug to me where he essentially accidentally won a giveaway he shouldn't have been able to win. The short version is that in some circumstances, someone who entered a NOWINNERSDAILY raffle and won another raffle immediately before the NOWINNERSDAILY raffle drew, would not be disqualified from the NOWINNERSDAILY draw. The bug is now fixed. Sorry to any givers whose raffles went to the wrong people as a result of this bug--it's a little hard to diagnose and find so I can't easily tell how often people were impacted.
The technical cause is:
- If ModBot detects there's a NOWINNERSDAILY (WEEKLY, MONTHLY) rule, it does a draw to see if the winner it picked is actually disqualified.
- Once this occurs, if it goes to disqualify you, it writes a few lines to the debug log. This is so the people on GAF who have access to the audit log can see that the reason the person was disqualified was because of this rule.
- The code that writes this to the debug log triggered an error in certain cases. The exact error involves the conversion of a throttle timestamp to a string to output to the debug log. In some cases the throttle timestamp would be correctly converted, in others it wouldn't. The cases where it wouldn't involved people who were being examined for the global 15 minute throttle timer because they had a recent win that required further investigation.
- If there is an error in any rule, it triggers error recovery code, so ModBot doesn't crash when something goes wrong. In this particular rule's error recovery code, if the error occurs, ModBot gives the winner the benefit of the doubt (and fatally, doesn't log that this has happened, so there were no error messages where there should have been.)
- So the winner, who was just disqualified, ends up requalified.
- All programs should be written through test-driven development and I suck
This is fixed. Sorry again.

wow the way you get to the true ending in p4 is absolute bullshit
it's so strange that this atlus chose to make the game a fucking minefield on the final arc, it's like freaking simon's quest or something
found it tho, i guess i'll see what's there tomorrow or when i have more time
it's not a bad thing tho, they fit well in the game
cool

This is clearly why I didn't win any giveaways. How dare you.
Nice catch thesaucetastic
It's a depot rather than DLC. If you open Steam's console, type in licenses_for_app 252430 and the reported package ID is 38723, then you have the game + art book bundle.
