I noticed that Big Picture mentions a music player in the settings along with directories to scan for music, but I can't figure out how to access the player. How do you turn it on? e:it's in the Library

Obra Dinn let me know I had a hint to identify a character really early, but I used a different kind of logic later on (or I just guessed it lmao). It involved seeing a ring on a lady's finger.

So, is this it for the Lunar New Year sale? I remember previous ones being pretty big and flashy, with emotes and stickers even (not that I particularly care about those), and lots of stuff on sale. Unless they're still gearing up for it, this seems rather dry.

I wouldn't be surprised if they decided they can slow the flow of the Sale Juice since November-January are already so packed with big sale events.

It was originally supposed to be cancelled in favour of a March sale but it looks like this one is an initiative from a publisher instead, rather than being a Valve thing.

My Steam thinks I have like 30,000 songs in the music thing, but 99% of them are just files it it interprets as 0 seconds-long silence.

I see Endless Dungeon has a playable “OpenDev” thing for those who preorder at the higher tier. Anybody tried it? I loved Dungeon of the Endless.

Has been a thing for most Amplitude games I think? Also really interested in how the Endless Dungeon comes out. Dungeon of the Endless really has been kind of a low-key favourite for me too.

If you've ever considered buying Factorio, buy it now. The price is going up $5 on Jan 26. It's good enough that I would still tell people to buy a 6 year old game AFTER the price increase, but definitely before.

Ciaphas posted:i'm 1h50m into finally trying out obra dinn and i'm 90% sure i've completely bounced off of it Yeah I got stuck in it after a few hours and I felt like I made a good call in looking up a guide when I found out that a ton of the stuff I was missing was from looking up extremely tiny, uninteresting details. I probably would've stuck with it if navigating between and comparing the scenes wasn't such a pain. I just wanted to bring them up and scrub through them instead of using video game mechanics to do ethereal travel.

I liked Obra Dinn but didn’t love it, mostly because unless you’re some kind of super genius you eventually have to start guessing. I got the majority of the people figured out, and did briefly did feel like a super genius when I figured out the hammock numbering thing. But towards the end there were so many that I had to just guess, and in one case the game kinda lies to you? There’s a diary or something that talks about one crew member getting torn apart by the monster, and there’s only one person shown getting torn apart, but nope, it’s not that guy, it’s one of the guys the monster is holding. I’m pretty sure there’s no way to logically figure out some of the people and you have to use inference/best guess like the fact that people hanging out together in the picture are probably part of the same group but in that kind of game I want 100% logic, and those ones really turned me off.

Everyone in Obra Dinn can be identified by logic. If you can't most of the time is because you haven't found the clues to do it or you have found them but don't recognise them as clues you need to identify someone. The perfect example that I've seen most people get stuck is the guy with the tattoos. You need to have outside of the game knowledge to identify him, in this case knowing the kind of tattoos he has is a cultural thing but if you don't have that knowledge or don't make that connection you can identify him with the hammock numbers, specifically when someone dies his hammocks is removed so you know who is who.

I've played Obra Dinn three times. The first time was blind, eventually succumbing to guessing at points. The second time, years later, I replayed it remembering the obvious solutions, but determined to figure out everyone else through pure deduction (even if I vaguely remembered who they were, I wouldn't punch it in until I was sure I'd found evidence). I actually managed to figure out everyone with four exceptions: the Chinese topmen, since the trick had been spoiled for me in a wayward comment section and I hadn't forgotten it. Third time I officiated the game while someone else played. If they asked for hints, I'd nudge them gently in the right direction, "Maybe check another room," etc. We had a lot of fun. Only one guy gets torn apart on-screen, but that one dude who's dying refers to "My Frenchman," and the guy who's pretty much always with him in every scene was wearing a striped French sailors outfit, so I concluded he was also torn apart. The guy we see getting torn apart though, at first I thought his tattoos were supposed to be Celtic.

I "cheated" midway through Obra Dinn by randomly picking triples of people as deckhands who drowned, which because of the Big Event, turned out to have a 50% chance of matching

You guess in Obra Dinn all the time but in the sense of "I am 50-75% sure this guy is John Smith." The game is designed around making educated guesses but I don't think you ever have to guess randomly or get locked out of process of elimination.

Piracy means "I dont have the money but I want the thing." Everything else is just garbage blowing around on an empty beach.
