"DLC" is a catchall used to describe both things like a) Artorias / Minerva's Den / Dragon Age Origins: Awakening, as well as b) a gun or a vehicle skin. I think it's important to note the distinction.

Something that Enhanced Steam also does.

 

[Sub Zero]

Opted out of the Steam Beta and Sniper Elite appeared in my library

 

[Turfster]

I'm tempted to pick Spore, but I remember somebody convincing me before not to buy it, and not one time too, don't remember why already.

Because it falls apart after the first stages of development, and is just not very good.

 

[inm8num2]

A few spares:

Thanks a lot for Face Noir, JaseC.

 

[MMBosstones86]

The one time i fell for the season pass nonsense was with Bioshock Infinite and lesson learned. Shit took forever to come out and when it did i got Clash of the Titans, some nonsense rushed bullshit made just to have something out there.

Completely agree, BioInf ruined it for me as well. Previously I did Blands2 and there was a metric fuckton of content that came with that. BioInf crushed my Season Pass dreams.

 

[Dr Dogg]

but is it fun? I mean really fun, or is it AssCreed, but with different name?

Ehhhh I'd say the AssCreed comparisons are a bit far of the mark. As I've said in a few posts early in the last thread it's closer to Splinter Cell and Ubisoft manned Far Cry than AC. It's more about watching, waiting and planning that pure fluency in action and traversal that AC brings. On foot it's slower paced but it has the massive added benefit of vehicles. Hard to give a full appraisal without going into a long winded rant but it's a evolution of Ubi open world mechanics as a whole instead of an revolution of what you'd expect in a sandbox.

 

[HalfwayOrb]

Thanks for The Cat Lady, Benedict!

[MBison]

Thanks a lot for Face Noir, JaseC.

As well for Cat Lady.

 

[Stallion Free]

Well, you're pretty much the embodiment of the minority opinion around here in a lot of ways. >.>

And I get to enjoy so many more things!

 

[Arthea]

Maybe the whole limited activations kerfluffle?

It has limit to activations? ya, not buying it again, thanks for pointing that out.

Ehhhh I'd say the AssCreed comparisons are a bit far of the mark. As I've said in a few posts early in the last thread it's closer to Splinter Cell and Ubisoft manned Far Cry than AC.

Thanks!
by that I got, that I'll wait a year or so and then by it cheap to see for myself how does it work

 

[DJSebolski]

Still up for grabs

GEARCRACK Arena -- MB-8216E61AA2972B79 - Taken by Benedict. 1 entrants total.

Thanks for Cognition 3

 

[derExperte]

A few spares:

Got Cog e3 , thanks.

Completely agree, BioInf ruined it for me as well. Previously I did Blands2 and there was a metric fuckton of content that came with that. BioInf crushed my Season Pass dreams.

But without a Infinite season pass we wouldn't have gotten the Infinite season pass pricing error.

 

[JaseC]

Thanks for The Cat Lady, Benedict!

"Cat Lady Benedict" has a nice royalesque ring to it.

 

[Dr Dogg]

I probably own more DLC than some people own games. Yeah I guess I'm part of the problem but playing dress up with Wei Shen is more fun than some full priced games.

"Cat Lady Benedict" has a nice royalesque ring to it.

Or sounds like a character out of Dishonored

 

[mannerbot]

Dark Souls 2 was a pretty big disappointment to me, gonna wait and see on the DLC.

 

[Arthea]

Because it falls apart after the first stages of development, and is just not very good.

I remember part of it not being very good, but not like we have too many this kind of games.

 

[derExperte]

Noir Syndrome looks neat and was in the Groupees Retro Bundle 3 which I stupidly didn't buy. http://store.steampowered.com/app/299780/?featured_app=1

And Indiegamestand has Deity Quest (still on Greenlight) for a buck. https://indiegamestand.com/deal/

 

[scorpscarx]

So true, lol.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Gah, I wished Valve would update TF2 and allow my shit to be marketable.

Thanks for I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. Looking forward to playing this one.

Sniper Elite V2 will be FREE on Steam for 24 hours only within this week starting today.

wow, that's nice.
Thanks

[fernandes]

Here is a bundle of joy to all of you

Can't get enough adventure games. Thanks, Benedict!

 

[corrosivefrost]

That new bundlestars is weak for me. I'm only missing the Miner Wars and Sacraboar... I don't think those two games are worth the $4 entry price. :\
I did grab the new royale in hopes that the mystery game(s) are the original cognition episodes.

 

[Arthea]

I haven't heard of any of these games except Jack Lumber. Is anything recommended?

I don't recommend Survivor Squad, I know some people liked it, but I literally hated it right from the start, and I'm not fast to hate at all, especially on games. It felt clumsy, unnecessary ugly and badly paced to me.
And I can't recommend Blue Toad Murder Files, even if it has its charm, and if you are into such games you might somewhat like it, I feel it is meant for younger audience, or if not, it's a bit too easy, can't say about others, as I can't remember.

And Indiegamestand has Deity Quest (still on Greenlight) for a buck. https://indiegamestand.com/deal/

Nice of you to post it! I was going to and forgot somehow.
Deity Quest is a new take on Pokemon, not sure how good it is, I only watched video and upvoted it on greenlight, but looks OK, for $1, I mean.

 

[Pakkidis]

Any reason why Cognition episode 3+4 are not showing up in my games library? I've restarted steam and their still not showing up. Every other game in the bundle seems to work.

 

[Last Baron]

Thanks for the Cat Lady, Inframan

 

[JaseC]

Or sounds like a character out of Dishonored

I really ought to run through the DLC at some point.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Why bother when you haven't played the main game?

That's my plan -- have an inquiry in to my guy already.

Or is that someone else?

 

[Gianni Merryman]

I opted out of Steam beta, and now I can see it (not installed) as part of my library.

Yeah, that worked somehow, thanks for your tip!

 

[scorpscarx]

That GoG conference is today I think. Hopefully we might be able to pre-order TW3. That's the one game I will pre-order .

Wupps, it's tomorrow.

In Store shows me as buyed.

TY for Dino Horde! Much appreciated, sir!

 

[JaseC]

Why bother when you haven't played the main game?

Haha, actually, a second playthrough isn't a bad idea as it has been a little over a year since I finished the game. The primary reason I did a ghost/no-kill run the first time around was so that I could revisit the game in the future and have a ton of fun wrecking havoc.

 

[Sub Zero]

If you're using the Beta Client try to opt out from it. Then it should show up in your library

 

[Dr Dogg]

I really ought to run through the DLC at some point.

I'm waiting for the summer drought to kick in before making a big dent in my backlog. I'm quite surprised the last 3 games I've bought on release I've finished within a week of them coming out. It's just impulse sale purchases and bundle fodder that keeps my backlog high. I suppose if you have no intention of playing it then it's not really part of your backlog is it? If that's the case yours must be tiny

 

[Dio Brando]

And here's the last one. hope whoever gets it enjoys the game
