Man, I really want to play the Hiver guy. I have enough money for the Gold edition, but you need mind games first and I don't have the money in my debit account.

Been playing the vanilla version of this the last few days. If you dig rouge likes and space pick it up. Holding off on the DLC for either a sale or to see if I burn out. Great stuff though.
