I wonder, do you guys consider being universally good at video games a skill or do you dismiss it?
(For clarity: no matter the game, no matter the genre - being (well) above average. Not a specific game or just a type of games)

Well, since we made it through the entire first full non-sale month in community with only one thread, I wonder if we'll see the same type of steady increase in posts throughout the year like we saw last year, or if it will stay more stagnant over here. It really is striking how much post volume dropped off compared to being on gaming side.

QP Shooting is no joke folks. That game is kicking my ass. I thought I was going to have 7 games completed in the month of January for the 52 games in one year challenge, but nope. It didn't happen.

I don't see things changing much now that this thread is "out of the way".

I got a noob question, do I have to go through any VPN loops to buy Life is Strange from Nuuvem? It isn't region locked or anything either is it?

11.20~ USD. Okay, now I have to buy it.

Pro tip: if it's region locked, it'll tell you in big, bolded red under "Importante." REGION LOCKED, just like that, with some extras after a : letting you know that it's locked to South America.

Nuuvem's region lock notice isn't overly reliable.

About an hour and half into The Fall and it has a great atmosphere. Puzzles so far aren't too bad. Seems like some dark stuff went down on the planet you land on

I hate when games get greenlit and the dev loses all interest in putting the game on steam. So fucking stupid given how there are devs out there that havn't been greenlit.

This game for example: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=114464371

Greenlit like ages ago. Goes on to make Standed Deep. Forgets about this game. Yeah, it looks like shit compared to Stranded Deep and most games in general... But fucking finish the job.

yeah from my spreadsheet: "A spider hunting sidequest in the japan section (chapter 2). Fairly big realistic looking spiders"

so nope

also didn't find it all that funny
Click to expand...

I finished it and it was...okay.

The humor was hit or miss. I enjoyed some of the jokes enough to finish the game, but it's totally skippable too if it doesn't look great to you.

I am also full of rum.

I guess the issue is that I don't understand the rule. It was my understanding that anyone with 8.1 (or 8.0, etc, for that matter) got the upgrade for free. Now I'm confused.
Click to expand...

You misread his post. He said that XP/Vista users can't upgrade to 8.1; he wasn't talking about the Win10 upgrade.

Edit: D'oh.
