The system is a little weird, if you consider taunt as some sort of spell/command it would probably be more magical armour related or maybe some sort of intelligence/wits check.
I love how all the fights are designed, no trash fights, though the game still suffers from minor differences in gear and level turning an impossible fight into a trivial one.
I don't think they teached me that during anger management class

Yes.
According to steamspy DOS2 sold 350K copies
http://steamspy.com/app/435150
According to Eurogamer on the other hand it has sold nearly 500k copies already.
http://www.eurogamer.net/amp/2017-0...-2-roars-out-of-the-gates-to-nearly-500k-sold
So the game supposedly sold over 100K copies DRM-Free? That's quite impressive, nearly 25%.

SteamSpy has a lag of a few days. That's why it can't keep up with PUBG.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
My mom's laptop broke down last week and somehow, because of that, I gave my parent's my PC and bought myself a new one.
It's been a strange week.
A lot better then the last couple of months, although that's not much of a challenge.
My PC was no slouch but this has been one heck of an upgrade.
Quite enjoying the GTX1080, for example.
(enthousiastic, decently controlled but loud on the inside yay!)
With that said; Hello SteamGAF. It's been a while.

I thought the lag is only relevant at the beginning. So when do you expect we can compare steamspies numbers to the devs sales numbers to get the rough split?

We also need to consider SteamSpy delay. Eurogamer got their today's data straight from Larian, who have live sales number data.
SteamSpy, on the other hand, needs to wait for at least a couple more days to get today's data.
Wait a few days and then compare.
Some keys I forgot about. For the Walking Dead, make sure to redeem it before 10AM Pacific on Saturday, September 23rd, 2017. Doubt anyone in this thread will take it so it'll probably expire, but who knows, maybe someone missed the giveaway.

Jasec I need your expertise.
Whats going on with the Marvel keys at cdkeys. They changed it to EU recently, which is fine (well except for US getting fucked), but someone was saying its Eastern Europe only on another thread. Is there such a thing as a eastern european only steam key?
cdkeys lists these regions on the Marvel page:
Works in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia & New Zealand
so whats going on?

Due to how it collects data, Steamspy is innacurate everytime numbers change a lot in a short span of time. Usually that's at release or during a sale.
PUBG is selling so much, the numbers are always lagging behind.

Damn nice of you
Enjoy the new PC.It's common for larger publishers to heavily region-lock keys intended for Eastern Europe, but CD Keys doesn't deal in those, plus it wouldn't make any sense to use the European Union flag as the denotation. The package its keys will activate is this one.
like, they refunded yours, gve you a coupon, and you would buy it again? lol

Yup. It would have ended up being $21 or so. I wouldn't have felt bad about picking up the DLC.
"If you are planning on giving away a game outside the Steam thread, you should include a rule to indicate which thread you will post the giveaway in. Imagine, for example, you are giving away Divinity: Original Sin in the Official Thread for the game. Adding a rule for this is as simple as putting the word THREAD and then a link to the thread you want to post the game in. It has to be a link to the thread, not a link to the POST. So it has to have the ?t= part in the URL. If you just posted a new thread, the URL you are redirected to does NOT have the thread URL, so be sure you get this right. Here's a visual example:"
soooo... do I have to put THREAD LINK for both the thread I want and steamgaf?

It's not necessary, just edits may fail until post appears in search iirc. and you can't use nolurkers rule.
That "lag" is always there, that's how it's designed, and how it samples stuff. At this point, the Steamspy creator should really think about just showing "Current Date - 3 days" and leaving always two days blank.
People just don't get statistics.
Another reason with PUBG is that it actually increases the number of people on Steam total, so Steamspy needs to be updated with a larger range of Steam IDs. Think about how insane this is.

Hey man my max is 1.4 mbps, it aint so baddat download speed...
its not mine, I get like 25 max ;_;
Gonna start preloadin later today~
Also i must be the only one who norices that Rhaknar is outdoing jase in the avatar department :v
the fuck you talking about?
It takes a couple weeks and it's only been a few days, give it time.
Anytime the numbers continue to jump up will deliver a period of uncertainty as the underlying statistics catches up. Steamspy can only scan so many profiles per day, so there is an error associated with the numbers until sales level off.
Yeah, I think that would fix the primary issue people have with interpreting SteamSpy data.
Also, a note about statistical fluctuation needs to be more prominent, so that people don't ask "why did thousands refund game X" whenever there's a bit of a jump.
Just leave it blank and spare us the hot takes 😂😂😂😋
I read that as Red Dead Redemption.
I completely forgot about it. Been interested in it for a long time. I used to play one of the old Road Rash games and I enjoyed it quite a bit as a kid. Not sure how close this will be, but even then, it always looked like a lot of fun.

HOLD ON TO YO BUTTS!
Dr. Strange, Dormamu, Ghost Rider, Hawkeye, Nova
Arthur, Chris, Firebrand, Nemesis, Nathan, Firebrand
Like we could've got say She-Hulk at least and another female Capcom rep.
As is, eh this is what we got for the base roster, and if one were to look past the roster, they'll find the usual Mahvel madness and to me that's good enough long as the gameplay is good.
Note that EU Steam copy of Mahvel Inf. is still cheap over at CDKeys if anyone is still interested in getting it
https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/marvel-vs-capcom-infinite-pc-steam-cd-key
On the whole though I am looking forward to playing it, but the roster complaints (not the lack of female characters) are understandable as it pales in comparison to what Capcom did with TvC and (U)MvC3, esp. that the more interesting characters are regulated to DLC (sIGMA, Black Panther). Hence I'd recommend picking up a 2017 or 2018 edition of the game if ever it goes cheap.
On the one hand I agree, looking at the roster now they could've swapped out a few of these characters with female characters
Dr. Strange, Dormamu, Ghost Rider, Hawkeye, Nova
Arthur, Chris, Firebrand, Nemesis, Nathan, Firebrand

That is is what I thought too, since it has the same time left from the other thread. But why is it here?
It is, Sony`s conference is before it
