Keeper And The Soldier
Interesting artstyle, although the gameplay part doesn't look too hot from what is shown in the video linked to the greenlight page.

Feels a bit like a Mega Man clone to me, but my experience with Mega Man games is quite limited. Seems nice though.
Dynasty Feud
More blawlers is always good, right? And this says it will have online multiplayer, not just local. Also, pretty neat art.

Sister was playing it and she's used to controller. I'll just get a refund.
Cubetractor is currently the giveaway on Indiegala if anyone's interested....seems a nice little diversion.

Mmh... It seems FF IX might be a small success on Steam. 1st place in sales in my country (France), 2nd place Worldwide... Nearly 5k of concurrent users and already 11k sales on Steamspy for the first day.

I've been invaded quite a bit when in the non-totally-dead state. Most of the duels have been pretty good, but there are some fuck ups that just bait the enemy AI into attacking me and then try to capitalize. It's kind of annoying.
I ended up chasing a guy through half the level while he just camped in a group of enemies.
I died.

Based Valve saving us from kickstarter links
Being a Cthulhu point&click adventure game is suffering.
The amount of 'game updates' being used by companies as marketing space for their other products is really disappointing and kinda troubling. Z-tier publishers with older titles are the most guilty of this; I suppose indie megahit Aldorlea Games is the easiest example.
I wish Valve stopped this abuse of their storefront. It's made the Recently Updated tab completely useless, used only for sales or marketing of older games, needlessly cluttering the storefront in a desperate bid for more attention.
Broken record here.
No point in discussing those steamspy numbers right now, they just aren't relevant.

A fix for the controller issue in FFIX, so it was SE screweing up and not the Win 10 update.

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.
So today's my "Steam birthday". Damn the last 5 years feel like they've really flown by.
It also means I've obtained, on average, 1.827 games per day since my account was created. I've slowed down a lot in the past few months though.

If you ever play Dark Souls 3 and see a purple summon sign, definitely summon that person. They are there to help you or die trying.
You're a couple bundles away from hitting that magic 2.000 number. Believe in yourself, jshackles! You can do it!

I was under the impression that the purple signs were the 'dueling' covenant.
Is that wrong?
---------------------------------------
I find the covenant stuff in DS3 to be pretty lame compared to previous entries. Oh sweet, I found an item and now I switch covenants whenever I want. I kind of liked the 'alter' or 'leader' approach from DS2 and DS1.
less than two games per day isn't hard
Not at all with all the shit-tier bundles that are flying around these days. You can get 100 awful games a week pretty easy now.

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'm sure it used to be well over 2 per day. I hit 3,300 a couple months ago (Feb, I think) and I'm at 3,335 now after purchasing Final Fantasy IX yesterday.
No but I used to buy absolutely every bundle released from every site that put them out. I also used to buy a lot of stuff directly on Steam after making around $600 total profit on trading cards, starting from when they were first introduced. I think there are only a handful of games in my account I actually paid full price for. It also used to be incredibly easy to buy cheap games from other regions.
Although, I used to set aside about $75 a month just for bundle purchases which, looking back on it now, seems a bit crazy. There have been a few games I've really liked that I've bought from bundles, but given the size of my budget at the time I could have easily just bought them outright even at full price.
I've learned better since, but I fell into the trap of "It's on sale, so I'm saving so much money!".

So, I've cleaned/cleared cookies in Chrome and Firefox and GMG's new layout doesn't display for me.
it's not that it's unique, it's that they pull it off super duper well
like the world just makes sense, you go down the tomb of giants and you see lost izalith and then you go down there and look up and you can see where you came from
or how anor londo looks from the undead burg and the oolacile (can't remember the real name) forest, how you can see sen's fortress from like three different places, all of that's amazing to me
idk, i find that to be super impressive
cool, tho i dont use any of those weapons lolNew Dark Souls 3 patch coming Monday
Yeah but how can you buy 1800+ games per day
It's impossible, I think you mistyped and it was per year?

I bet it's the point. Over here we're used to , instead of .

I use a greatsword +10 in DS2 and that shit is brutal with a strength build. like +600 dmg brutal.
never want to see a good weapon nerfed, like my buddy the zweihander in ds2 : /

He typed it just fine. He didn't say 1800, he said 1.8. As in, less than 2.
Oh, I missed a comma.

With the amount of bundles and free games (as in, Steam key giveaways) out there, 100+ a week doesn't seem impossible.
Duelling signs are separate from summoning co-op signs, IIRC. I think those are red? Might be wrong; I haven't tried duelling anyone.
And while I haven't seen all the covenants yet, the only bummer has been connection issues, like ice skating lag or disconnects, which hamper the experience. Other than that I've been OK with it.

does DS3 have stupid ass PvP areas where they don't even tell you it's a PvP area? Shit is mad annoying when youre one of those crazy people who wants to see all of the areas and bosses in a game and then you get some guy invading your game and soul arrowing you to death

Completely agree. The world in Dark Souls continues to blow me away. The scope and the way everything is connected....it's just fantastic.
I haven't found 2 or 3 (still really early) able to match this yet.

Oh, it gets better than just DS2's clangorous covenant or gnawing covenant. Just you wait and see.
I bet you'll love it!

I'm enjoying the Game of Thrones TT so far. It's basically a playable version of the actual show, but from a new side. which I don't have a problem with.

What is this even about?
Don't do this, this is bad advice!
Purple dudes (mound-makers) only care about themselves, their only goal is to kill, no matter whom. And the more people summoned the more tempting it is for them to just go after the host otherwise they have to kill 3 phantoms. Even in fight clubs they're a wild card, more so if there's two of them.
If you do summon a purple guy check what type of summon sign it is, most likely than not it'll be a red summon sign and you should only summon them if you want 1v1 duels.
See above.

I don't get the issues. I recall people said it was boring? But it feels like the show to me.

Just wait until you finish episode 5, then.

It's a visual novel set in Steampunk early 20th century Marseille mainly about a conflict between a guy with lightning powers (and a mech) and a secret society, though the main character of it is a female student.
