Morter posted:Ooh yes, any input? I also had my eye on this Its a kickstarer game. I don't know if its been updated at all but it was fairly unpolished as you might expect when I last played it, but not horrible. For cheap I wouldn't recommend against it, to scratch that road rash itch. I need a new gamepad. I got this Hori 360 pad (gempad ex or something) as the only thing I use a gamepad for is side scrollers and fighting games and we all know what a piece of absolute poo poo the official 360 dpad is. It still pales though compared to the holy grail, the PlayStation controller, which I use a couple of with some generic usb adapter that's hit or miss. I've had the Xbone controller up in my hands but haven't actually played anything, the dpad seems better but I dunno if its quite what I need. Suggestions?

therealjon_ posted:Is the Shadow of Mordor GOTY upgrade worth it? Thinking about starting a new game since I upgraded my PC. I started playing all the DLC I picked up on sale a month ago. Each is unique, with one focusing on monster riding/baiting, and the other focusing on stealth/domination. I have really enjoyed both, and the only reason I haven't finished the Bright Lord achievements is because I picked up Dying Light around the same time.

chrisoya posted:SanctuaryRPG Black is in the next batch of unlocked sales. It's very good. Counterpoint: it's a grindy game with permadeath and untelegraphed difficulty spikes. I fought trash battles for a couple hours, then got wiped by a boss suddenly far more powerful than anything before and promptly uninstalled. I wanted to like it, because it reminded me of old BBS games, but just couldn't find the fun.

If anyone cares (probably not): My VAC ban was almost certainly because I was running HyperSLI on my computer briefly. A friend gave me his old GPU and I attempted to run them in SLI. I must have tried out TF2 at the time and the fact that I was running a modified version of Windows got me flagged. I'm going to mention it to Steam support but I'm not exactly holding my breath.

For what it's worth,  Lost Planet 2 is 8 bucks.Last time it was 8 bucks was at the beginning of the sale due to a pricing error, because that price lasted for only an hour. 8 dollars is the lowest it's ever been.

ufarn posted:You joke, but even that is not going to be enough. You need to play very guardedly, so charging would just get you killed. Wondering whether to just do it over with god mode, but not my idea of fun, so I'm probably going to wrap it up. Delusibeta posted:The wireless adaptors will also be Windows 10 exclusive. Basically, if you want a wireless PC games controller, the DualShock 4 + any Bluetooth dongle + this program will be the way to go for the foreseeable. Both the DS4 and the Xbone controller will work with pretty much any USB A to micro B cable, though. Shumagorath fucked around with this message at 17:21 on Jun 14, 2015 |

I wanted to like it, because it reminded me of old BBS games, but just couldn't find the fun. I kind of liked it from the little I played but it's one of those games where having permadeth seems like a confusing design decision. Like you have to got through all the "tutorial" stuff again and it's all the same and why would you want to do that multiple times? I probably would have finished it if I didn't have to start over, but now it's languishing in the "I'll get back to it" pile, which means I'll probably never get back to it. It felt like there's enough there to have fun with multiple playthroughs without permadeath, but it's a thing because the devs want to make it more hardcore or longer or something.

I'm going to mention it to Steam support but I'm not exactly holding my breath. From a quick search it looks like HyperSLI is a hypervisor, which basically means it runs "above" Windows. There have been proof-of-concept malware hypervisors that can hide their presence from antivirus software under Windows, so I guess a hypothetical cheat system might do the same to hide from VAC. I don't know the details of how VAC works (as I understand, it's a closely guarded secret) but that seems like something that might freak it out.

As much as Valve likes their flat structure I'm still pretty sure Steam Support is just a farmed out complex.

Gestalt Intellect posted:Anyone know if other hypervisors such as virtualbox could be a danger? Are you playing VAC-protected games inside a VirtualBox VM? Probably don't do that, it's a silly thing to do. I can't say it'll trigger VAC, since I'm still just guessing here, but also there's no reason to do that. Are you just running VirtualBox and also VAC games, both under Windows/Linux/Mac OS? You're fine. A hypervisor can't hide crap from other code running at the same level.

Someone gifting me in the gift train thread (drop by it if you haven't) mentioned that this thread had an in-depth post detailing the reasons why Westerado is not recommended. Now, I could read the thread page by page to find it... or I could ask you guys.

Quest For Glory II posted:I think xander might have done that but I'll chip in and say while the ATB-style combat is kind of interesting, the game just ends as soon as you finally have your party together because it's supposed to be part 1 of a trilogy. Yeah that could have been more clear on the store page. As it is you have one segment with each party member and a boss for two of them, and then the climax has you all together for a couple bosses, and then a short post-game segment that sets up the next part. There is DLC that lets you use all of them from the start to extend that a bit though.

Waroduce posted:Has anyone played Survivalist or know anything about it? Survivalist is a weird janky little rpg about putting together a group of survivors and building a base. There's construction, zombies, choices/consequences, and some characters have traits like Diabetic (you need to find insulin to keep them from dying) and Lung Cancer (the more times they smoke cigarettes, the worse it'll get). It's not a bad little game for three bucks, but you kind of have to enjoy the genre (post-apoc/zombies). State of Decay is more expensive, but I would recommend that over Survivalist (SoD is more of an action game than an rpg, but they have a lot of similar elements). Far Cry 2 and Blood Dragon are great. FC3 has good gunplay and wildlife stuff, but the story is dumb and I didn't like a lot of the changes they made from 2 (2 had a diegetic map, better fire effects, no crafting, and you couldn't completely empty an area of enemies to shoot by shooting other enemies). I think I'm in a minority favoring it over 3, though. I haven't played 4 yet; I hear it's like 3 but more and better. Blood Dragon is easily the most fun, if you can dig the aesthetic (darkness and neon). Fifty Farts fucked around with this message at 18:51 on Jun 14, 2015 |

Diabetic posted:Is Endless Legend any good? It's on the deal of the day and it seems interesting, what could it be compared to? It's kind of a fantasy Civilization 5. It's solid. If you get that, also look into Dungeon of the Endless- it's a very different game but ties in. Really addictive.
