Really not sure why but im enjoying skyrim alot more than witcher 3.
I dunno i just feel skyrim is more fun to explore n its not just map hopping if that makes sense. I think there's something else but i just can't figure out what. By all rights witcher should be up my alley but hmmm

Blackenrock is coming late summer
It was planned for October 2016, but it seems we'll see it this year.
If you don't know what it is, it's the last game of Lost Crown series from Boakes, the author behind Dark Fall games.

So, as expected, Prey 2017 received huge price drop in retail in my region because of upcoming summer sale (and possibly because game flopped in sales, but i'm trying not to think about this). Now price is around 16$ with preorder DLC. I finished a lot games from my 2017 backlog and now I'm actually have time to play Prey. But maybe i should wait for summer sale, price could go even lower...

I'm curious if that lasts. Skyrim seemed limitless to me when I first played it, but after some time the magic began to wear off. Like, the patchwork nature of the gameplay, area, and quest design are surprisingly thin considering the size of it all, and once I started to notice how it all worked it got boring. Witcher 3, meanwhile, always had story carrots dangling around every corner, which helped me power through all of it.
It's really only Skyrim's mods that have lured me back to it. Story freshness can get stretched out a lot more than gameplay freshness (unless it's really good!!) I guess.
Although now that I think of it, I'm probably an outlier when it comes to valuing story above other stuff... I've wasted a lot of time in some games just to see the story. (literally hundreds of hours in Star Wars the Old Republic is probably my biggest shame. Went through all but one of the class stories.) And true to form, my only regret is not wasting more time seeing those stories through. Man.
It's not going to be more than half off.

Do you happen to know where I could find a steam key for such a price?

Tried out Deathtrap for a few days based on the forum's recommendation.
Short version: it's pretty bad. Game fails as a tower defense game, and as a hack & lash game. It needed to pick a direction and stick with it. Anemic amounts of loot drip fed to the player, limiting not only where towers can be placed but also what kind of towers you're allowed to use, drowning the player in upgrade points but artificially choking progress by limiting what can be bought by character level, etc.
I imagine coop could be fun for a day or two, but I couldn't find an online game that would connect.

Is there anyway to see a list on steam of games in a bundle so enhanced steam can quickly tell me which ones I own already?
Lets use this as an example https://www.indiegala.com/shootout
I just want to quickly see which ones I own.

happy birthday Nete!
It's really weird - they're not affected by the change (assuming they aren't part of the poor countries) so why are they complaining? It's not like they have a stake at the company. The reason lower prices exist in poor countries is so people could buy the games.

Same crap happened when valve killed trading in umbrella regions like South America. You wouldn't believe the amount of people who defended that decision with facts they took out of their rear.

I remember in one thread someone said a game costs like 1/4th of the monthly salary (so lets say it would costs around 500-700€ in Germany) and he cant afford it and will pirate it. That was the worst thing you could ever do!
Edit: Happy bday~

In my XCOM 2 journeys, I have taken a screenshot that is the purest representation of what XCOM is, without having a Chryssalid on screen.
And that crossbow gun? Don't ask; I have no idea what added it to the game...
He's not even missing and you can just feel the futility of it all! It's sooo XCOM.

You'll have a choice at the start of the game. They want to double down on choices too. Jens Matties talked about it during the Giant Bomb Night Show.

The best thing about the hunters DLC are the armors, I think that I never used the weapons.

Maybe some understand that in the real world business standards & practices aren't as black & white, good vs. evil as entertainment media would lead you to believe.

Happy birthday, Nete. Enjoy the day.
And all the fathers too. I tweaked my back and can't move. Nice day, huh?

Oh, was that Wyatt on LSD? I didn't play with his story so I didn't recognise him. It is a nice feeling to imagine both BJ's buddies are still with him, instead of the horror-show that actually happened.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

I see System Shock 2 has an inventory recycler. Prey really is exactly in the lineage.
Are any other games such direct homages to previous works that are made by a different studio with a new game title? Obviously, Bioshock is the first I can think of. Any others?

Any list that has House in Fata Morgana at #1 can't be a bad list.
Zuma.
Peggle.
Pretty much everything by Popcap.
Also Serious Sam. Pretty much a Doom, only better designed, more visceral and with better gunplay.
Fata won tbh. Also extremely happy to see the OT gaining life again.
It seems like I am wrong on Prey in the sense that I have come away with a not so fair impression of Prey based on the PS4 demo. I didn't complete the demo but it felt like there was input delay of some kind? And I can't remember if there was head bobbing but it made me feel nauseous so I was afraid of picking up the full game. With the video reception I am of course curious but I is the shape-shifting of taking over control of objects the main "gimmick" (in lack of a better word sorry) of the title?
There's a line of NPC dialogue in Dishonored that was borrowed verbatim from the tutorial in the original Thief.
