    Bought the Indie Gala Bundle just for Deponia, way cheaper than the game alone.

    Well, I've beaten Freesia. That was a fun if short game.

    Problem is now I'm left with more craving for stabbing/punching dudes and a serious lack of games that allow that.

    Maybe I could get the old DMC4 out and sword some fools.

    Steam ID: Right here.

    This game looks kinda cool, but if I'm being honest with myself there's absolutely no way that I'm playing it for more than a couple of minutes, so enter and enjoy!

    I'm a huge planning nerd. I love sitting somewhere planning a thing and then watching it work so Cities in Motion sounds like a wonderful non-violent TD sort of thing. If my system can run it I will enter when I get home. :)

    If I didn't hate League of Legends with a firery passion, I would offer to take one of those DOTA2 keys. But any game where me dying not only results in my team suffering, but also in the enemy team gaining benefit, is a game I'm never going to be any good at. I love rushing into things trying a risky kill; and I just can't do that in MOBA games.

    I continue to be pissed over missing the Farming Simulator sale, and posts like this are fertilizer to my rage crop.

    I'm having an issue with Might & Magic Clash of Heroes where the dialog box for allowing me to install DX or whatever comes up, and I let it have the admin privilege for that, but it doesn't actually install, so the pop up happens every time I start the game.

    This is especially a problem in Big Picture since I can't use a controller for the dialog box and it sorta screws up Big Picture somehow.

    Steam: Autumn_Thunder - SC2: AutumnThundr.563 (NA) - Hearthstone: AutumnThundr.1383

    I had a lot of problems like that with my Big Picture box. I ended up disabling UAC on it.

    The beta client seems to have a ton of crash problems. It crashed on my laptop this morning without even an error message, and there's been several complaints since an update pushed out a day or so ago.

    I wonder why all of the Cities in Motions are highlighted in Green on Steamgifts. Is it because they're bundled?

    Green Highlight usually implies that you have said game on your wishlist. At least that's how it works for me.

    If you're using the addon it means it's on your wishlist. Though the wishlist feature is fairly unreliable.

    Well now I feel like a fool.

    Nevermind, then. It must have moved up my wishlist after the Winter Sale.

    So, uh. I decided I'd try this Tribes Ascend thing since I had it in my drive since forever. It seems to have gotten stuck in launcher, saying "Tribes is waiting on prereqs being installed" but not actually popping up anything. Is this normal?

    It appears they've added promo hats to the Steam Market place in TF2 so if you got some and don't play it/don't like them may want to check that out, get some steam funds for your dusty ole hats.

    Huh, I guess I should check this out. It may alleviate these random people adding me to friends if I dump the items.
    That's what I'll be doing tonight. I don't play TF2 a lot and if I do I don't need a hat on my guy. I'd much rather have some Steam funds assuming there's anybody out there wishing for a bucket or cone hat from PvZ.

    I don't think you understand TF2

    Completely possible. I collect games, not polygonal hats.

    DOTA eggs only hatch more DOTAs, which make more DOTA eggs that hatch more DOTAs, which.....

    It's DOTA2 all the way down!

    Deponia has that kind of idiotic humor I enjoy quite a lot. The main character reminds me of Guybrush Threepwood, he's probably the biggest moron since Monkey IslandTM and all of you guys should buy the Indie Gala pack just to see Rufus in action.

    Are the Deponia games good

    Cause they kick off massive Monkey Island vibes which is intriguing me, but I've been hurt before.

    It only highlights the top 25 things on your wishlist, which I guess must be incredibly frustrating to you.

    Many thanks for the heads up on selling TF2 crap, just made £9 selling a load of stuff that I don't understand for a game I don't often play. Mostly pre-order items I think, since I haven't played TF2 enough to get much.

    Puppy Games has released Droid Assault on Steam today. If you remember last year, they gave away any 1 of their games to users last year. So if you picked Droid Assault you can get your Steam key now. Use this link, http://www.puppygames.net/steam/

    I didn't even get to play it since I got the free copy, so wooooooo free Steam game!

    So, I recently finished off my massive 221 star game of Sword of the Stars 1 that I picked up in the summer sale. I really enjoyed the real-time combat combined with regular turn-based empire management. I was also impressed at how easy it was to have stories emerge as you were playing and how different the various races feel when you play. The different types of stardrives really contributes to this. In my first game, I played as the Liir and while I had some bumpy encounters with the Hivers (who I ended up conquering) and some diplomatic entanglements with the Humans, bird-guys, and lizard guys, it was the Zuul that really earned my ire. While I had a huge technological advantage over the other races, I'd kept certain weapons and technologies off-limits due to their horrible nature (Meson Projector and Bio-Warfare). The Zuul crossed a line however when they raided one of my young colonies and carried off and enslaved most of the population in a raid. After sending multiple doom-fleets rampaging across the Zuul's territory using dreadnought mounted Meson Projectors and dreadnought mounted assimilation plague fleets, victory was mine as I was able to bribe/badger/threaten the other races into submitting to my benevolent tyranny.

    Thanks for all those who encouraged me to pick this game up.

    On the down-side, the trade system became very annoying to micromanage and I wish they had done more effort in streamlining that part of the economic system.

    I can't believe someone just paid 4.50 or summin' for a digital hat. not that I'm complaining:)
    Thanks whoever posted the market update. Hopefully I got the rest of my digital chaff in before the market gets overly stupidly flooded with it and the price gets dragged down.

    Edit. Ok..... I'm starting to feel deeply deeply disturbed that I feel like I could have fun playing the market.

    I feel like there's the kernel of an awesome RPG/sim in these games. I wish there was one were you race to deliver packages or something. I love open world racing.

    I kinda want this thread to become the unofficial farming simulator thread (even though I don't own the game) complete with flaming, raging at the devs over patch changes, and calling things OP.

    Installing The Hunter now. I remember reading about it before I built my current computer and wanting to play it when I finally could, but that was a couple of years ago. Time to remedy that. Apparently SirCarcass is an unacceptable name (while Carcass was taken), and XxD33RHUNT3R420xX was too long, so I'm MINDKILLER.

    The handling on the John Deere 4500 Turbo Edition just feels off. When I'm running through corn I expect to really feel the crunch of the vegetation but they made it feel like you're running through a field of ice. I'm hoping in the next edition they can really tweak the force feedback and improve the keyboard customization.

    You see, I picked up an old chassis from a 65 Ford tractor on craigslist and improvised a hookup from an old usb keyboard to make it into a custom controller for use with the game but find the sensitivity adjustments don't let me make it feel as realistic as I'd like. It's still pretty great using the real controls while plowing through a 70" beet field projected on my wall, but it could just be that much better.

    Kidding...I don't own it yet... but my birthday approaches and I might know how I'm spending my birthday cash...

    Rapeseed? Yet another game ruined by the perceived need to turn everything into a misogynistic male power fantasy.

    Civics is not a consumer product that you can ignore because you don’t like the options presented.
