Pathfinder: Kingmaker is really, really good so far. I love how much dialogue and world-building there is. Only problem is that I haven't played a CRPG in years, and I've never played the P&P version of Pathfinder...
That's the one I'm probably starting next after I finally finish PoE2. But like you I know pretty much nothing about the P&P version so it will be a challenge starting out I'm sure.

It's partly why I've never gotten around to Drakensang despite buying it twice. I hear the Dark Eye systems can be pretty complex.

I bought SAO Fatal Bullet at the start of this sale, and haven't played it at all. And now I'm thinking of emptying the rest of my Steam wallet for games that I'll probably never play. Someone please stop me.
Go for it! Oh.. wait.. ;)

I made the same mistake. Bought a ton of RPG's when my backlog is already full of other RPG's of all varieties. And I just signed back up to FFXIV.. I'm a mess. :loudly-crying-face:

I beat Leon's yesterday and was going through Chris'.


I'll take that offer, but maybe in a few weeks, I'm mad at the game now lol. But sure! :dmcblob:
I said fuck it and dropped the game after beating Leon and playing a few of the Chris missions. It was stunningly bad. I mean I accepted that the game was more than a little shitty with Leon, but then you can almost hear Capcom say hold my beer and they make Chris campaign. I have trouble putting words and limiting my post to a few sentences as the more I think about it, the more shit I remember. I played a few levels past that point, but I think I dropped the towel when I processed that I just shot zombies spider men and, I don’t remember exactly, let’s call them zombie cicada men.
That’s what got me, your game is a blizzard of shit, but I see you were not even trying.

I just played Revelations 1 before that one, and for all the handheld origins limiting the game, it was so much better. A little bit repetitive, boring and short, but not offensively bad like 6.

yeah ... that would be possible ... i've had a steam account for a while



i literally have no idea ... i certainly didn't spend that much, i can tell you that
Ive seen ur activity duder over the past months.

Unless those games u bought were cheaper than us base prices
I would say steam borked the maths either by currency conversion or uve been doing the starbound trick a friend told me about.

Just use them up and get every game u wanted.
Id suggest to gift ur homies some stuff but these be your tokens and u do what u gotta do.

Not sure I'd call it the best, but I had indeed a lot of fun once I realized it's not a survival horror shooter, but a melee brawler :coffee-blob:

Again a stealth-release and yet they will keep saying the PC Scene is very difficult and competitive (it's true tho) but hey, let's keep releasing things with almost 0 advertisement so people don't realize that our game is coming out as soon as NOW!

EDF4 had like 450k users when that Steam achievement leak happened though? It did really well...

It took me like 20 hours to learn all these mechanics on my own. They should've put a tutorial at the beginning.

What I meant is that some of this companies (not D3 specifically) complain about having a really hard time releasing their games on PC due to the non-noticeable impact on the potential customers, but then again, the main difference between the console releases and the PC releases is that the second one doesn't have as much marketing as the first one as they seem to think that PC gamers already know the game and when it's going to release, but reality is that while most of us know EDF! (sorry, I love the EDF thing xD) it's hard to follow when they are going to release it. just look at this one, out of nowhere and it's releasing in 3 days.

Was EDF4 a success? yes, absolutely, it sold quite well even before the Monthly and they were really happy about the numbers, but that doesn't mean the PC fellas have to know everything, doing some marketing isn't going to hurt, you know? haha

HOWEVER, I'm really really really happy we are already getting EDF 5

Played the mobile version when it was launched in the US. I was currently up to the 1st or 2nd country and got bored unfortunately. Hopefully the latest version is better.

EDF! EDF! EDF!
FINALLY

I'm seriously thinking about dropping RE6. It is not good.
I'm glad lashman informed me of this post.

My Tips:
  • Don't play one campaign instead go to the next. Instead play Leon 1, Chris 1, Jake 1, Ada 1 - Rinse and Repeat (keeps up the variety, ties the story elements together and lets you beat all the campaigns back to back.
  • Utilize the melee system's full potential. Much like Re4/5 you should still primarily be stunning enemies by headshots (or other limbs) to pull off a melee move. You can also counter attacks about to hit you or Dodge/roll.
  • Remember that stamina can be quickly recovered by laying on the floor or being up against cover
  • The game is in-essence a brawler with guns than a shooter or regular RE game

There's even more than this, but that covers the general guide. The game definitely has a lot of issues, but the right mind set and tools can change your enjoyment. Unbeknownst to most, I HATED RE6 until I finally spent the time to learn the game.

If i'd buy an american retail copy of Cyberpunk 2077, it would also most likely include a Region free GOG key rite?

I've got 85$ worth of american amazon wallet and i can't use it because they don't allow me to buy digital game codes with it fuck offfff

Physical editions of The Witcher 3 had GOG keys, so I'm pretty certain they'll do the same with Cyberpunk.

Welp, they got me:
CDKeys had the FFXIV complete collection (including the latest expansion) for 26€ during the weekend (it already went up a bit in price), I ended not resisting it.
It's been 10 years since I've played a traditional MMO (gameplay wise), kinda missed this type of game a bit.
You jammy sod! I bought the previous FFXIV Complete Collector's Edition from SE Store a week ago as it was £29 but didn't include ShadowBringers and now the complete is back up to £69 so although i have some FOMO i haven't been able to login these last few days so eh. I'm still only lvl 2 CNJ so i want to play some more before picking up ShadowBringers. Unlike virtually everyone else who says they are "New" to FFXIV but actually have 5 lvl 70 chars i am legitimately New to the game and have only 2 hours in it so far. 🌱



Also, Quick Bump for those here that play MMOs and want somewhere to chat about them...

My Tips:
  • Don't play this shitty game, forget about it and be happy that Capcom found a way back to making good games after they learned that they made literal shit.
  • Remember that some people will try to convince you that this is somehow a good game despite acknowledging that they hate(ed) it. Laugh in their faces and play Resident Evil 7 or 2 or literally any other one except the shit that is 5 and 6.

There's even more than this, but that covers the general guide. The game definitely has a lot of issues, even the right mind set and tools like hard drugs and mind altering sickness can't change your enjoyment, it will still be a shitty game. Unbeknownst to most, I HATED RE6 until I learned to ignore it and concentrate on the good RE games.
Completely true. I have to applaud jawmuncher to spill the truth here.

Guys, if you ever thought about making your own YouTube channel - don't. Unless you are going to make only gameplay videos with background commentary and have perfect diction. Making even a single video is hard and I'm not sure what the hell I was thinking about when I decided to try to get in, I would rather just play games. Especially considering that half of the year is gone already and I finished only 22 games so far. I've completed 52 games in 2018 by the end of the May ffs...

EDF5 was made by a new team, got average reviews and everyone forgot about it instantly. What I'm trying to say is, don't get too excited.

Or was that a different one?

Yes, was thinking of Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain.

Though realEDF5's reviews weren't much better. It's 50% off at 24,99€ on PSN right now, let's hope they aren't starting with the full price on PC.

I'm okay with getting nothing from wishlist, I'm just happy that Team Corgi managed to win against all the odds and all the plans built against us failed in the end.
Thankfully the reign of the Nazicorgis has come to an end. Free at last.

Despite the average reviews, I'm still interested in Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain, and hope it's coming to PC soon.

Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain actually looks like an interesting new take on the series, more enjoyable than Insect Armageddon.
