I'm glad I already played through all the Zero Escape games I got during summer sale, because otherwise I would feel a bit cheated, lol. I payed around double what they cost right now.

Anyway, at this price I can't say no to Danganronpa.
But damn, that is one crazy sale, what gives?

I hope that you are all ready to read one of the best horror visual novels, ever, now that Saya no Uta coming to Steam.

Among all the VNs that I have read, it is perhaps the one that best combines sound, graphics, and writing and uses it to create an utterly alien, utterly unsettling atmosphere, all crowed by an excellent soundtrack that captures the same sense of alienation.


Instead of the anime tropes you normally find in visual novels, Saya instead delivers strong influences from the works of HP Lovecraft, and instead of endless padding you'll find a tightly written story with 3 ends that can be finished in a total of about 6 hours depending on your reading speed.


TL;DR: Read Saya no Uta!



No price and preorder make me dread its some full price bullshit like many other visual novels in steam
Valve no longer supports pre-orders for smaller games, except in special cases, since it spreads out purchases and reduces visibility on launch day:

My guess is that the base-price will around the same price as the original game (€22.5), probably with a 10-20% launch discount like their other titles. It is even possible that they'll match the current 35% discount for (OG) Saya no Uta, but that seems less likely.

Actually the 1/2/V3 bundle is ~16€ + probably around ~5€ for Ultra Despair Girls in the other complete your collection bundle.

Yeah I don't know, that's crazy.

Probably only gonna get the Danganronpa 1+2 bundle because I literally have no time for new games right now.
Like, I'm not even done with the summer sale purchases, I just bought that crazy Fanatical bundle and I'll probably get this months Monthly. Let's not even talk about older games I still haven't gotten to.

And I know I'll get Digimon in nearly 2 months, which is 100-200 hours for both games according to howlongtobeat. :sweaty-blob:

Oh wow, really glad I held off on buying Nonary Games and Danganronpa V3 during the summer sale because they're much cheaper now. Especially when you take advantage of that extra "complete the bundle" discount.

I'm also stupidly tempted to get Street Fighter V because EVO fever got me wanting to try fighting games again. I don't even like SF all that much and I already have a backlog of Arc System Works fighters lol. I should probably just stick to FighterZ and Guilty Gear for now...

The prices on Steam have been so stupid that i barely buy anything directly from Steam anymore. If your game isn't available from a third party retailer where i can get decent prices, i ain't touching your game.
It doesnt help that some retailers like Greenman insist on local currency parity with Steam

I finally double dipped on all those Visual Novels I already own on Vita (where IS my Vita anyways? I have not seen it in months)! What a crazy sale. Everyone get 428 Shibuya Scramble, it is my GOTY so far!

Give the Free Weekend a try and see if you like it.

Why is the stealth in Alpha Protocol so freakin' BORKED. I could be meters away from an enemy if I am not crouched, they immediately go into suspicion mode. One time after a checkpoint restart it seemed as if an enemy teleported to my right and punched me when I merely walked into a room, and I am certain that enemy wasn't even there prior.
Seriously wtf happened during this damned game's development?

At any rate, is there a suggest Hub order? I plan on going Moscow>Rome>Taipei

Still planning to play through it and SSGSS AA really makes the game look nicer. There are a few stuff that don't look good but otherwise I tidied up the game as best as I could using SSGSS.


Seriously, SSGSS bringing out all these funky textures is mindblowing sometimes. Imagine going from muddy PS3 to this.

There really isn't, it's up to you. You'll get some different comments on the intel you gather, but that's about it as far as I remember.

I liked Rome for last hub, though. It felt right somehow.

I'd replay Alpha Protocol in a heartbeat if they added achievements to the Steam version :grinning-face:

A whole team? Whew. But it's great that they're openly and quickly responding to the complaints.


But seriously, if I screwed up this bad at my job I'd be fired yesterday.

That's not how you spell Theatrhythm Curtain Call.

Wouldn't be surprised if the Indivisible prices are linked to physical console release prices in the individual countires. 505 don't want to screw with local distributors.

Yeah, I got it from Humble Monthly a while ago and played like an hour tops. Wondering if there's any point transferring versus just starting fresh.
I got it with my Xbone, got to about level 11. Got it in humble and um... redeemed the key! Still haven't redeemed my CoD blops 4 keys.

Sorry PhaZZe I can't help as I haven't played Astroneer and from the videos they are similar but with very different feels and aims.
I love NMS but can't suggest it over Astroneer as i know next to nothing about it.
