Metal Gear Rising will keep my reactions in top form for Dark Souls II.

I'm half tempted to go through Demons Soul's for the 20th time to sharpen up seeing as I find that an all round tougher game.

Been ages since I've updated DSFix and see there's some new bells and whistles though the UI scaling and opacity is great it is a bit wonky especially with bosses health bars. Got it sorted using the Helix 3D mod but now that conflicts with Precision. Bloody compromise after compromise.

I really hope Battle Chef Brigade comes to Steam. It looks fantastic! Stolen from here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=98031179&postcount=1

I'll be buying it regardless, something about it just appeals to me.

Yeah I saw that earlier today and though it looked really promising. Cook, Serve, Delicious! is still my go to cooking sim fix though. I don't see ingredients anymore just the corresponding letters flash up in my head!

I loved the minimal HUD that Durante came up with. I would just turn it off completely for Boss fights.

Is Durante's UI mod able to toggle? Just doing some faffing around with the Helix version and you can either have it scaled down or toggle it on or off. It's quite nice but it does still leave text and damage counts on screen and one massive gripe that had me at 6's and 7's is that the lock reticule is made transparent as well. Been testing the new Shadow Play features and made a right hash of it. Might upload it for shits and giggles.

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.
the season pass now costs more than the game, that's crazy

And the season pass still doesn't include all of the DLC, which is even crazier.

It used to be able to toggle between minimal, normal, and off when it was originally released.

Can you play DayZ offline?

Nope, the entire game relies on server-side calculations now so its just not possible.

And thanks for that heads up Grief, looks like DayZ is shaping up to be a really awesome experience. I'll get it one of these days.

No problem. I'm in charge of the OT and keep that pretty up to date with patch information. Look into it from time to time if you want to see the updates.

I can never seems to know where to go in Dark Souls. Just walking around to nowhere.

Hahaha I've beat it about 6 times now and even I'm debating where I want to tackle next. Great strength of the game is that it does give you a few options. Though I'm sat here with a checklist so I can 100% 1000/1000 before the beast of GFWL is slain for good so I kind of feel like a quantity surveyor.

The Skyrim mod actually seems pretty interesting

I don't see how that would be compelling at all without the constant danger from other players, especially with zombies in their current state.

I keep dropping frames in Limbo (been trying to get that less than 5 deaths achievement). I dunno if it's just my laptop is being overtaxed or what. :(

There are only two objectives. Ring the bell over by Undead Parish and go down to Blightown to ring the second bell.

Bollocks you've just reminded me I need to go talk to old onion head and I'm half way to Blightown already. Knew I should have gone to
Darkroot Basin
first.

Have the issues with updates/games renaming themselves passed yet?


Any statement from Valve on what on earth is happening on Steam today?
 
Been waiting a few days for Uplay customer service to add assassin's creed 1 into my account. Bought it years ago through the uplay store but totally forgot I had it. Now that I got ac4 for free with my vid card I loaded the Uplay thingy up and it's not there. The autoreply they send you doesn't even give you a decent time frame, just tells you to wait a few business days for a response. Jeez.
