I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?

From my experience and from what I've read, you don't want to cap the FPS on Source games as it can cause lag and latency issues.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I played Shadowgate today for about 6 hours.
This game is such a gem, and has so many things for the player to do. I was able to beat the master difficulty and earned 50% of the game's achievements, which means I still missed quite a bit. The game's achievements are well done and provide a great incentive for people to really leave no stone unturned. One of my favorite parts of this game is all of the nods to the classic Shadowgate. The game isn't a screen-for-screen remake of the original, and a lot of the puzzles have been reworked considerably. The additional back-story elements are great too and provide a bit more depth than the original experience.
Anyway, this game is probably the best point-and-click adventure I've ever played, dethrowning even the original classic. I'm also going to say it's in the running for the top 5 best games released this year.

Yep, fantastic game, criminally overlooked.
Yep. The combat can feel a bit repetitive after some hours as it doesn't have tons of variations, but is still pretty solid and the roleplaying side is just fantastic. In some ways it reminds me to Banner Saga.

I agree with that, there could be a little more variation in battles and after a while I got tired of being ambushed at night and having to fight off a hoard in my pajamas's wielding a spoon. Even camping in safe locations overnight and having high level characters on patrol it still felt a little unfair at times.
I really loved the interaction and stories of the various expedition members. When I first played the game I just chose random members and ended up with a racist genocidal nun and a soldier that stole everything that wasn't locked up. Makes it hard when you're playing the nice conquistador!

Im still playing through it on and off, really enjoying it. Very difficult with decent atmosphere.

I'm playing The Witcher 2 right now and I feel like I should have played the first one. They're talking about Yennefer, and apparently she has a history with Triss or Geralt but I have no idea what it is.
EDIT: Oh, they kind of explained it in very general terms. They have a kid, and a bad relationship?

Yennefer isn't in the first one at all, she's a character from the books but she's going to be in the third one.
Oh good. I felt like there was a lot of lore I was missing, but not I figure they'll explain most of it later.
Icewind Dale Enhanced is next on the docket for Beamdog?

Yes.
You're missing a ton of lore, but since Geralt conveniently has amnesia, it isn't really required knowledge for the games.

I wonder if Beamdog would do the Dark Alliance games.
I should just ask and see.
I should just ask and see.
The Witcher 2 is a DAMN fine looking game. I can play it at max (-Ubersampling) on my 760 no problem. I haven't checked the framerate, but it feels like a solid 50-60 at all times. Makes my card buzz though (just like any other demanding game recently, 2033, Bioshock Infinite, etc. Might be the fans, but I don't know. It's probably a common thing.) Based on how this performs, I'm not too worried about how 3 will run on my rig anymore.
I'll probably either read a wiki or go back and play the first one before I play 3. Maybe I should play it right now. I really want to keep playing 2 though, and it would probably take me forever to get through 1.
You could read the books too
. The first two, a couple compilations of short stories to set up the world, are amazing and a great way to get used to Geralt and friends.I was actually thinking of doing that! Maybe I'll read them this week and resume my TW2 playthrough when I'm done. I'm not very far in, just got toYou could read the books too
the part where the assassin meets the elf in his cave.
Which books should I read? Sword of Destiny and The Last Wish? Or The Last Wish and Blood of Elves?
The Last Wish and Sword of Destiny are the short stories compilations and, in my opinion, the best books of the series.
The other five (Blood of Elves until Lady of the Lake) are the actual saga. They are pretty good, but somehow I find them less interesting than the short stories.
If you want to know EVERYTHING, then read all of them. If you just want to know how Geralt world works, the first two. For both Witcher 1 and 2 you don't really need to know much of them, although you can be spoilered in both games. Witcher 3 seems to be more involved wirh the books saga.

Is there some reason why Resident Evil 4 isn't capitalized on the store page or is this just a Capcom thing?

"so-and-so is now playing THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIII STEAM EDITION" will never get old.
You could read the books too
The books are awesome, you should read them if you have a chance. They aren't required for any of the games and anything important from them will be explained, but reading them will definitely add to the experience, especially for W3.
Here's a list of the books. For the short story collections, you should read The Last Wish first and then Sword of Destiny.
For the saga, read them in order. Most of them are translated, but fan translations for the ones that aren't can be found here.

Good Morning guys.

I'm going to grab The Last Wish on kindle once I finish reading Metro 2033, and I'll have to order a physical copy of Sword of Destiny. Apparently they haven't got a kindle version yet.
I think I'll hold off reading the other 5 until I've played 3. I'd hate to ruin large parts of it unknowingly.

I just loaded up The Lost Alpha mod myself yesterday and was blown away. It looks and plays wonderfully. The game itself has so much atmosphere and the emergent gameplay is incredible.
I'll also echo that The Last Wish is pretty bad ass. It's especially great if you've played the games as you can hear their voices while your reading if that makes sense.
The books take place right before the games. They won't spoil anything from Witcher 3.
I don't know why, but I legitimately laughed out loud at this one. Oh internet.
Steam is just very excited to let you know that someone is playing King of Fighters.

It actually is annoying, and RE4 not being consistent with the other names is annoying as well. But whatever, that's what grid view is for.
It would be more fitting if it said RULES OF NATURE
Thanks for all the recommendations guys, I'll grab The Last Wish this week!
Just so I know, about how long would it take me to play through TW1's main quest? If it wouldn't take a ton of time, I might just read the books AND play it before resuming TW2. But if it's some absurd length and not really worth playing, I'll pass for now.

Time played for me says 61 hours. I played it earlier this year. It really is an incredible game though. Better than TW2 as far as story and setting in my opinion.

Morning GAF!
Bought HuniePoP yesterday
OK all these Murdered: SS impressions baffle me, where were you shmucks when the game got released, lol.
Surely you guys don't appreciate games when you get them for cheap right?
Right?
Being super nice and friendly help.
Scratch their back and they scratch yours. You know.
The Russian Bear appreciates the scratching Comrade Shadownet.
Seriously, our limbs can't bend that way without straining muscles...
Using the in-game VSYNC options locks it at 30 FPS. Turning it off and using your own Graphics setting to turn on Vsync, will have the framerate go over 60 FPS.
What kind of game is this Orion?
Ok, that OP made me want to play it. Shit, there goes another couple dozen hours...

I never noticed. Still, it looks weird even with the context.
Modern Warfare 3 and earlier are region-free. As is Ghosts' Gold Edition.

Load up a few graphical enhancement mods and just go get lost. It's a fucking intense and awesome game. The sense of dread and just, I dunno "darkness" is all over the world in the game. It's fantastic.
Telltale said 3 years?
Nah, Geralt and Yennefer were married. Witchers are sterile due to the mutations and Yennefer because she is a sorceress. Ciri is his (and Yennefer's) unintentionally adopted child. Geralt died defending a elf from a lynch mob, and then Yennefer (a sorceress) tried to bring him back which cost her life. So technically both of them should be dead. Geralt is currently suffering from amnesia so he doesn't remember his past life, and his love of Yennefer, or why he is alive.
Did they get married?
