Davincie posted:how much are these bundles? i don't see a price anywhere Basically, it's an increasing minimum, with all the games rising the minimum by $0.50 each (with the exception of Isomer and Fall Weiss, which add $1 each). So, it's possible to buy a pair of games for a dollar. The entire thing is $6. Naturally, you can also pay more.

Lili is a nice little adventure game. It started out mobile but it was an ambitious one so I'm not sure how it translates but I remember liking it.

I couldn't even get BloodRayne to loving load up on Windows 7 with the latest Nvidia drivers when I picked it up over the holidays. I recall seeing lots of people complaining about the same issue, and for a mediocre two dollar game I wasn't about to revert my drivers to some ancient bullshit, which seemed to be the only fix available at the time.

Does anyone have words for Castlestorm? It looks interesting and the complete edition is only 5bux right now. Just want to make sure the mechanics matched up well to the cool concept.

I wrote a bunch of words a while back in I think the previous steam thread or winter sale thread but hell if I'll be able to find those. Summary: it's a fun game, get it if you can get it for cheap, there is a lot of content and it is interesting and fun to blow apart castles and stuff, has a few shortcomings regarding boss fights but altogether a solid and fun game.

It's not bad, but be warned the Multiplayer (the major reason I got it) was a huge let down. Singleplayer is pretty decent. I don't know how you feel about Mobile->PC games, but it still feels a bit mobile-y in design and scope. Perhaps it's just me, but whenever I play a mobile-ported game sitting down at my desktop (no matter how 'polished' it is) I feel I'd be better off putting it on my tablet/playing something more engaging/or doing something else.

I picked up Space Run over the weekend and I quite like it. For an indie game it has pretty good polish and art direction, except for the mediocre story and voice acting. Pick it up if you're into tower defense games at all, it's a fun spin on the genre. You basically play as a space trucker hauling cargo through dangerous space. You have to balance building thrusters for speed and offensive/defensive structures to fend off waves of baddies who attack you from all sides. Worth the $15 on Steam or GoG.

computer parts posted:It's because they're standalone expansions so you have to duplicate all of the stuff over again. I was positive I remembered the retail copy of EFLC making use of the GTAIV files and only being a couple of gigabytes of extra content on top of it, but maybe I was just mixing it up in my head with what the Half Life Episodes did on Steam.

Does steam have a very peculiar notion of what "blocked" means? Because I have a notification of 5 chat messages from a phishing bot I blocked - a notification I can't see to remove without unblocking it. Is there some option I neglected to mark that say "when I block a person, please don't let them message me and certainly don't put up an unremovable notification thereof to bother me".

Anyone a fan of that game Shadowgate back in the NES days? I loving loved that game, and it managed to scare the crap outta me. Well it's being remade and I think it looks awesome. Comes out in like 3 weeks and I'm pumped.

Well it's being remade and I think it looks awesome. I'm dating myself here, but this game was at least an entire semester of my freshman year of high school. I remember my best friend and I going over hand drawn maps in biology class, running home, calling each other and sitting on the phone playing for hours at night. Can't freaking wait! I'm guessing this time around, his wife's not going to be too happy if I keep him on the phone four hours every night though.

I contributed to the Kickstarter that helped get the Shadowgate remake funded, so yeah I'm definitely excited for the chance to finally play it. I never had the NES or Mac originals, but I sank a ton of time into the GBC remake that was made. It's funny, I'm not usually a fan of adventure games where it's possible to screw yourself, but for some reason I still love Shadowgate. Maybe it's the game's music and atmosphere.

Malek posted:It's Angry Birds only with Castle Siege-ing. This is good thing. It's a hell of a lot more involved and active than Angry Birds, which is also a good thing. Generally speaking, Castlestorm is a game well worth playing. The DLC packs are each a hefty chunk of new content, too. Ghostlight posted:It wasn't bad overall. It just wasn't anything special in a sea of level grind currency storm F2Ps. That's the thing that gets me about Firefall. For all its development hell and rushed release, it's frustratingly almost good. If the dynamic event stuff worked right (it doesn't), and there was arena PvP (there isn't), and the business model was a little less obnoxious (it's kinda crazy how in-your-face it is) it would probably all come together nicely. There's a bunch of elements there that should add up to a good game, but it feels like there's no glue holding it in place. It'll either get fixed (ala Defiance, which is well worth playing now) or it'll burn out and nobody will remember it in six months.

"Hey, let's make disconnecting rope lines and connecting them take very similar mouse commands!" said one person who worked on Volt. "Ooh, and let's give the player a limit on how many they can use per level, typically with no room for error!" said another. gently caress this game, said I.

There's a bunch of elements there that should add up to a good game, but it feels like there's no glue holding it in place. Yeah for a game that's been in development for so freaking long, it still feels sadly unfinished. I played the beta waaaaay back, and at that time it felt like a game with a lot of ideas and a lot of potential, but that didn't really have much to do quite yet. Now here we are 2+ years later and it still feels about the same. The 'nothing to do' problem has been hastily papered over with a standard MMO quest system, but if anything that only spotlights the problem. Because so many of the quests are 'go to this waypoint and shoot a thing, now do it 3 more times', and there's no convenient mount or fast travel system. So most of my experience playing the game since release is just running across big empty spaces to get to the next waypoint. I still get that feeling of 'wow, this game is probably going to be awesome once it's released', followed up with '...oh right.'

That Lily game in the be mine bundle is super pretty but the gameplay is kinda dull. I literally only played it for 10+ minutes though, so maybe they throw in some more mechanics/abilities later.
