The worst thing Two Worlds 2 did was make it so you couldn't just keep combining poo poo together until it was insanely broken powerful.

Yeah, instead of embracing the insanity they created by accident they decided to fix it.

It had piles of glitches like how you killed kill orcs, raise them as orc zombies and in certain towns they would start sweeping the streets.

You could also throw a Taint down a well.

That's certainly one way to taint the well.

I just saw an update drop for Iron Brigade, apparently Doublefine got the license back from Microsoft and have promptly replaced GFWL with Steamworks. Finally it's playable.

Sweet I've been holding off buying this for a while because every time it's on sale I ask myself "why haven't I bought this yet?" then I remember it's GFWL.

The YCS thread on Two Worlds was one of the best things that came from the subforum. The game was a living glitch environment where they would somehow interact with one another creating a new quality.

What? Overture was a character action game like DMC.
It was a Guilty Gear game and its actually canon. Xrd is a sequel to it, its just back to being a fighting game again.

With MOBA/RTS elements

While every other video on youtube shows the commander battles, this is what I remember about it.

As a fan of the AUG: Some day Valve will put an AUG that's not ugly as sin into CS:GO. Some day.

Today is not that day, apparently.

I like the AUG because it's one of like 3 non sniper rifle weapons in CS:GO that has an actual usable scope. It's like the easiest weapon to use. It makes people so mad. Play CS:GO if you like making people whine like loving babies so you can laugh at them.

edit: How to make people mad at you in CS:GO, an intricately detailed guide by CJacobs: Buy an AUG and only an AUG immediately after the pistol round. That's it. People are upset now. Video games are to be played for competition not fun you see.

The only thing that could make people even more mad is using an anime AUG so well done Valve.

I like how GFWL didn't actually outright die but the mere rumor that it would has ended up saving some really good games like bioshock 2 and dark souls.

Bioshock 2 still has the worst sound bugs in the history of sound in games.

I Am Frick: Mar 26, 2004; The lesser half
of Frick and Frack

I have a financial quandary... Dying Light is 46 percent off at IndieGala at $32.49, the lowest it has ever been since it released three months ago.

Do I buy it? Or do I wait for the Steam sale and see if it drops to 75 percent off? Since it's a recent AAA title, I'm betting the best it'll see is 25 percent off sale-wide, and 50% off in a flash sale.

[e] Screw it, I bought it. I can at least play it now.

Remember that the Epic Edition is mostly bug-free, most of the crazy glitches you see in the videos come from the original release.

Have they at least fixed the sight reticle to be round and stopped the brass from ejecting directly into your face?

Christ it's so frustrating that no-one seems to care about the sound issues.
2K completely removed vending machine sound effects with their last patch and never cared to fix it. Then there's sound imbalance between left and right channels and weapons are whisper quiet while getting hit sounds are super loud.
