I gave away five copies (well, IOUs) of Bad Rats: The Show back when the game was announced and to this day two haven't been accepted. And I know the winners received them because I PM'd everybody after the game released and I'd sent the gifts. Those poor, homeless rats.

And compared to some of the digital homicide releases on steam, Bad Rats is a decent game.

Just seeing Tits 3rd's steam page is enough to fill my cold heart with warmth.
Do you mean the first boss? I found that boss surprisingly hard and wound up moving on to other games. :/

I hope we hear something about Prey for the Gods soon. They said that it will be released this year, but no news for more than a half year i think. I am having high expectations for this game.
meh
The new games have been added.
I guess I'll keep hoarding coins.
meh
How many do you have at the moment?

I forgot a couple of days so my chain broke, but at the moment I'm at 3969 with a 26 day streak.

Cat Interstellar is a +1 for me.
Yeah, he's awesome.
I'm guessing that there a probably a few of us around that level who missed out on the 5000 for Brigador. As soon as they put a more appealing game up it'll be snapped up by hoarders.

Oh interesting, I didn't notice that before.
If anyone bought Halo Wars I'd be curious to know how many games are found when searching. It was only ever a handful on Windows Store PC and is 0 now. I don't like the idea of buying a game on the same platform I got it for four months ago in order to be able to find a game =\
Regardless hope it succeeds on Steam so if I eventually do triple dip there might still be some people on.

I wasn't interested anyway. But when they eventually put a big game for 10k, I'll be there.

Same, 250 coins seemed cheap enough for my hard earned coins

Well, Reigns wasn't bundled before. I think Cat has been bundled a bit.
Quick Impressions
+It's Arkane, it showed off very decent character buildability and tools, music seems great, and it seems right in line with quality you'd expect from them.
-Worried about performance after Dishonored 2, worried about enemy/scenario diversity, and when it comes to Arkane I vastly prefer vertical design and I'm not sure how much of that we'll get in an enclosed station.
6-7/10 hyperoonies
Still wished they showed a little bit more to convince me but spoilers shrug.
Cautiously optimistic

is it the same team as disho 2 tho?
yeah
Why would I be hyped for a game that's already out?
I don't know, why are you hyped for Dino Crisis to come to PC?
I don't know the inner workings of Arkane but apparently Raphael Colantonio, the co-director of Dishonored 1 with Harvey Smith, is solo directing Prey, as apposed to the latter whom directed Dishonored 2 solo.
For sure. Dishonoured 2 was my GOTY last year, so more of those principles, but in space, sound great to me. Chris Avallone being involved is also a big plus.
It's not the same. Lyon is doing Prey, while Austin did Dishonored 2.
But there's been reports about performance issues for previews.
Hopefully they solve issues and it's good as I may or may not have preordered it from certain site.
Somewhat.

He's not hard, you just gotta be patient. Granted your damage output is rather low but you can only damage that boss when his legs are up and his attacks are mostly easily to avoid.
The issue comes in when he traps you at the corner, but often times he'd do a jump that gives you enough time to get out of the corner.
Really it's just a long boss fight that makes it easier to beat. I just wish your weapons dealt better damage though :/

Wait, Twitch has a launcher now too!? When's the GAF launcher coming out? We don't want to be left behind!
Edit: It should of course only play anime and indie games.
I still haven't played 2, just started the DLCs for the first one though since I heard they tie into the story in the 2nd one..
I've heard actual fans of the first game say it's great despite the mixed reviews
Reins is a finished game that also happens to be very good.
Whatever it's there right now is in Early Access and, judging by the reviews and community forums, feels like a demo right now.
I'm in day one for anything Arkane. Dishonored 2 was 2016 GOTY for me. Prey looked good enough from the start that I just stayed away from further coverage.

Came out and then it went to the hunting grounds where it is said to still roam to this day.
But Arkane's "version" looks neat in terms of effects. It's just that's a burner tactic by the IP owner on both the original and it's proposed sequel that is a pretty compelling argument to not deal with their games. I remember that "sneak press fuck" thread too. That was basically the best part about this whole thing.
So I'm kinda hyped about watching it bomb?
To be fair, as a game itself it does not appear to channel much that is new, aside from the 'mimic' effects that enemies appear to have in it. So it's more about fancy effects than a new game, which I don't think is something anyone would be extremely interested in these days. In 2007, yes, in 2017, nah.

'Halo Wars has stopped working' 😢
Tried verifying game files, tried launching it w/o Steam overlay, tried launching it with the default Steam skin, tried running the .exe as administrator. Uninstalled and downloading it again now...
Drivers are up to date. i5 4670k, 1070, 16GB RAM, W10 Pro x64 🤔
edit: reinstalled, still doesn't work

They're not doing a PC demo which means the PC port is going to absolutely fantastic.

Someone remembered Alien Swarm?
There was something with PC on it on that thread thanks to someone doing some digging around.
"Consoles" is a way for publishers to divide their business categories. It's just meant to say it's not mobile (and typically not handheld). It's meant to give people certain expectations without being specific. Like for instance, it's from the God Eater devs, but since it is focused around home platforms, people can probably expect areas to not be the 20 feet sections of a game containing 1 enemy (or 1 enemy pack) like a lot of portable MH style games tend to have.

UE4 + Namco. I'd bank on a PC version announced later.
It's a UE4 game by Namco. It is 100% coming to PC. The "consoles" usage doesnt mean anything at all, it's just what the japanese magazines mention and japanese magazines wouldnt ever give a shit about mentioning PC.

That game still isn't finished, is it?
That's the kind of irony I absolutely love.
