Stellaris' pre-order cosmetic speciespack is a race of spiders. Sorry, zkylon.
1) This Cursed Giant Tree Wood guy is a real son of a bitch. Tried a handful of times SunBro-ing and we can't take him down.

2) .....We're straight up attacking the nuts, right?

2)
Any of the pods are vulnerable. The nuts, the right hand, one of the feet (right?), and, in phase two, on the butt.

The battle is a little... nuts, yeah.
 
Mordheim looks great kinda play like Valkyria Chronicles in dark medieval theme.

Unfortunately I dislike the settings and theme and maybe that's why the game is getting pretty minimum attention. It's a PC exclusive and only sold 100k copies thus far. It would get a lot of attention (and sales) if there's a similar game with anime-ish theme and released on PC/PS4/XB1. I

I thought the Doom MP was fine. Considering the SP demo of Doom at E3 got boring pretty quick. I don't see the game SP being too impressive. Probably just decent.

You know even when I know a choice doesn't matter in a TT game, the illusion still adds to it. I still ponder on some choices, just in case. Overall it doesn't bother me since at the end of the day it's about telling a story over anything else.

I quite enjoy my interactive TV Shows

It does matter, generally. The "Choices don't matter" crowd is always seemingly focused on endings. So yes, the endings are often not changed very much by choices in TT games (and really, most games that advertise player choice), but a lot of the stuff in the middle can change pretty drastically or even just for "RP" purposes.

i love the little things of how from is a lot more merciful than ppl may think

right before the abyss walkers boss fight, there's a bonfire with three enemies turning their backs to you. you can easily kill all three without them hitting you once and you get 1k souls and they sometimes drop titanite shards. it's like they're giving you free souls for you to grab the resins you might need and a few spare titanites in case you could use an upgrade

nothing feels like an accident in these games, it's amazing

also it was awesome fighting the abyss walkers after like 7 tries and then beating them barely being hit once or twice. you feel so in control, it's amazing. not so cool getting invaded right after and not being able to use the damn bonfire but u know, you take the bad with the good

yeah, that's how i feel too

it's about the journey, not the destination, and you have to play along or else everything falls apart

i don't really care about these things "not mattering" either. life is strange was fine without crazy choice and consequence, so was tales from the boredlands. good games of the genre just tell good stories and let you customize them a bit

that's about it

alpha protocol is just one magical thing

2) .....We're straight up attacking the nuts, right?
yeah i can imagine

remember to upgrade your weapons if you don't feel like you're doing enough damage

i beat him solo with
a fire uchigatana

That Mirrors Edge skill tree could mean you could replay missions with new skills and take different routes - could be cool.

I genuinely hope someone can help with this issue. It's maddening and making me pull my hair out in frustration. I've googled and found lots of different answers, none of which have helped.

Has anyone else running Windows 10 had issues with Steam games randomly minimizing themselves while playing full screen? It isn't particular to a certain game and seems to occur at random times.

I've tried to look at Event Viewer with no luck. I don't see any sort of pop-up stealing attention, it just aimless dumps me back to the desktop.

Trying again. Someone? Anyone?
 
Something about netcode is weird in Dark Souls 3. I still get with at least 90% of summon tries error messages. All the while there are no issues getting invaded.
But so far all has been manageable solo. Beat the
Abyss Watcher
. That was very fun. Then off to the Cathedral Deep. What a great area with a chaotic but not too difficult boss. Having summons did help thin out the ranks.
Afterwards I went to the Catacombs. That is a harsh place. Ended up going all the way to the boss on my first try thanks to two summons who then promptly died at the boss leaving me alone. Was relieved to see the boss himself took care of his minions for me, heh. Anyway, I beat him. I liked the fight.
And then, yes, and then I went to
Irthyll
. Dang. Just dang. Stopped right at the start. Enough for today but suffice to say, if sleep was not an issue, I'd still be going.

i did cathedral and abyss watchers the other way around, that's pretty cool

haven't been having errors with online, tho i haven't really summoned anyone (i've been summoned A LOT tho).

most of my issues with the netcode is random sliding people, random invisible people and general dark souls lagginess

Hay what's a good wireless mouse that's decent for gaming? I have a microsoft wireless with blue laser or whatever now, and that works fine, but I'm wondering if there are better options before I just rebuy the same mouse?

My scroll wheel seems to not be working well. Might try to open it up and see if I can clean anything to make it work better. And no I don't want a wired mouse gross.

I was really hoping that after Dragons Dogma, capcom had more old games to release on PC. Shame at the moment nothing has come from that success.

Ports and/or remasters still take significant amount of dev time and QA resources especially if we're shooting for a high caliber port like DDDA. With that said, we do have other projects already in the pipeline...we'll talk more about it in the near future. ;-)

my take from a convo w/ bernardo earlier

"Wait, I can't have more than a level 5 badge? How the hell am I supposed to be a whale then??"

gave away the keys to the kingdom.
Can't spill them beans, but I figured it's something GAFers and Capcom fans can look forward to. Train doesn't stop at DDDA.

Since you're here, can I be a pain again and bug you for a key to this so it counts as owned? The other free DLC items use No Cost subs, so no issue there.

If none of them is Ghost Trick, Ace Attorney, Okami, God Hand or Asura's Wrath
or even all of them
, then you're doing it wrong :<

Ha, that's one of the five Japan-exclusive collaboration designs utilizing third party IP/brands.

They aren't super interesting anyway. Mostly corporate logo from major retailers that are only relevant to residents in Japan.

The user you're responding to is one of the top two or three Steam collectors in the world, so it might save you both time and help get to an amicable resolution if you recognize that he's more interested in the "thrill of the chase" and the victory of owning it than what it is. On the upside, he's purchased literally everything your company has put out and if you sold the thing he just asked for, he'd buy it.

If it's not possible to give him a key, I'm sure he'd appreciate your support finding contacts at the retailers in question for him to be able to get the key.

Please don't do a Sega and follow up great DDDA with some shovelware like... thinking hard of mediocre Capcom games... dunno, that space nazi dino game or Devil May Cry 2.
 
Decided to play a total of 5 games of Battleborn and I can say despite it being kinda garish and haphazard looking. I think it has potential to become a better game than it is currently. Needs a lot of work but, it's doable. Problem is, is this 60 dollar price tag for it.

It's kind of ridiculous.
