    Okay, game saved with thousands of credits and everything unlocked.....Maximize the french woman or go in now......she would be useful as a full support.

    Two mind control, sniper and support verses two snipers, one aggro psy and the other defensive psy.

    Man, you know what playing this ghost in the Shell game really makes me want? An EYE Divine Cybermancy sequel. Anybody know what those weirdos are up to these day?

    Might have to reinstall; EYE is so great.

    The EYE guys are doing a Warhammer FPS currently. One of the 30 upcoming Warhammer games.

    Specifically a Space Hulk coop FPS, you play a Deathwing squad. I'm cautiously optimistic. Not much has been heard on that game lately.

    Steam being sued in Europe always felt like a matter of time to me. It's so obvious their TOS don't comply with consumer law. And their support structure probably doesn't either.

    Heyos @Bobkins Flymo!

    From Honeybunny and i, it's not a ton, but every little bit helps, i hope.
    93voxhrwohyn.jpg

    Also, various and sundry. Spent a big chunk of last night clearing everyone's storymode in Skullgirls. Well, except for Robo-Fortune, who i don't have, and Fukua, whose last fight just killed me (this is on easy, mind, i cannae get traction with anyone on Normal). It strikes me that i'd love to have Skullgirls in about any other media than a fighting game. The world has just got so much character, and i love the design of almost everything. They do a great job telling a story within the limitations present, but i found myself wanting to know more after everyone's last scene. Also, i want more Annie of the Stars, who kicks ass.

    Also, also, side question. i noticed all the games i've played today...well, that's just USF4 and Afterbirth (and, boy, did i screw up today's daily, there), but they're still listing "syncing" next to the title on my library list. Isaac's been "syncing" for the last 2hrs, this is disregarding the fact that i played it, quit for Street Fighter, and then played it again. Didn't effect gameplay for either, but still...is this happening for anyone else? Is Steam a bit wonky-buggers today?

    Also^3, i squared away the cellphone Steam Authenticator thing, yesterday. It worked out fine, no problems, so that's nice. Guess if one gets drunk enough, one may be willing to try most anything.

    So, this isn't exactly Steam related but I have four trial keys for Rainbow Six: Siege if anyone wants to give it a test drive:

    Loading...?

    These trial keys are only good for this weekend, and you need to redeem them via UPlay.

    Total Annihilation showed up on Steam. Neat.

    Also Lords of Magic a little while ago. Lot of 90s games are ever so slowly coming to Steam which I can definitely appreciate. Though I can still name a good 10-20 or so I would really like to see on Steam as well.

    I feel your pain. Due to being distracted by having to talk to everyone in a new location and do a bunch of running around and shopping and then some pest control, I only managed to apply my awesome new combat shotgun** to the faces of a scant two dozen or so raiders and maybe 6 super mutants. It was very disappointing. I have things to kill, people!



    ** legendary with 25 added bleed damage, which on a shotgun I *think* might be getting applied to every pellet... it's pretty insane.

    Women really like showers, I'm told. And baths. I think you're just looking out for them, trying to make them comfortable. Although putting food prep in the shower might raise some health and safety concerns.

    And FYI for people planning to get Dragon's Dogma on PC, the current voucher for 23% off on GMG works with DD pre-orders and the keys are sourced directly from Capcom. So with the voucher it comes out to USD$23.10

    I really need to get back into Prison Architect. Fortunately I have the week between Christmas and New Year's off so I can give my games some quality time. I'd really like to have some time to play around with my Steam controller too. I know awhile back someone posted a site that had configurations for non-Steam games...is that link still around?

    Here ya go @Lindsay Lohan: http://www.steamcontrollerdb.com/

    I think it even has an app or program to simplify things.

    EDIT: Just know that for the controller to work, you have to launch the game through Big Picture Mode though you might be able to minimize BPM after. I'm not sure how that works

    Bundlestars is giving away copies of The Ship. I already had it from years ago, but my copy didn't include the single player mode. That was ironic, because when a new developer took over, they gave every owner two gift copies which did include the single player. Anyway, I used the key with this free copy and finally own the single player mode.

    Looks like they're doing a new version of The Ship too. It always seemed like a neat game, and I really enjoyed the original HL1 mod version.

    From the Dark Souls facebook page

    "Attention Dark Souls PC Fans!

    While launching the Dark Souls III Steam page, some PC requirements were posted by mistake. These are not representative of the game's final specifications. We look forward to sharing those PC details in the coming months - But for now, you can add Dark Souls III to your wishlists!"

    I guess those sys reqs we saw previously for DS3 are likely to change. I'm betting they get higher.

    Holiday travels are not for the feint of heart. My son is sick and was pretty inconsolable the night before we had to take a plane flight to the darklands of Ohio, so me and Mrs. DoctorArch had 3 hours of sleep before "waking up" at 2:30 AM to catch a 6:00 AM flight. Once in Ohio, and after chilling with the family, both kids decided they didn't want to sleep until midnight while the two parents were walking zombies.

    Wake up this morning, down a pot of coffee, see a bunch of work e-mails waiting for me and this wonderful gem from @Ardent

    eZcyLA2.png

    Thank you so much! I never had a Super Nintendo, so I didn't get a chance to play this back when it first came out, but I did get to the final boss tower 17 years ago in college due to the wonders of emulation, but had to abandon my game due to the wonders of campus-wide, hard-drive wiping computer viruses.

    As a longtime forumer, I remember back in the day where there were actually mod decrees (I think it was from Dr.Dizzaster) that this game had to be referred to as Final Fantasy III and not VI because the Japan-only games hadn't made it over yet and it was always a cluster-f of confusion whenever people talked about them.

    Also, FF6 may be my favorite example of what a 16-bit JRPG can be. Sure it lacked in-depth character customization, but this allowed the designers to focus on making the characters unique and memorable as they ran from set piece to set piece in a large, vibrant (at least for part of the time) world. For example, what other game at the time took you on a journey to reunite a forlorn knight with his family by boarding the train of death culminating in a fantastic boss fight with the train's engine? AND you could suplex the engine to boot! No to mention, this was just one piece of the many different stories contained in FF6.

    It really is a lovely game, and thank you so much Ardent!

    So me and wife work thinking of getting the jackbox as it is 50% off on bundlestars. We were thinking of getting it because we have a family get together at our house this weekend. So, here is the question.

    Everyone should have a smart phone, and I understand you can play that way. We plan on having it on the TV in the living room. Is it worth it for $13? It has only been historically low as $10, so we are real close to that price.

    It has been a hit at every get together we've had. Both bundles are great, though I'd say the second one is quite a bit better, since YDKJ is only 4 players and there are 2 duds in there (with a possible 3rd if the people you are playing with don't like pictionary type games). The second pack only has one bad game, and it has an updated version of the best game from the first pack (Fibbage), which is always most people's favourite game.

    But if you are not willing to pay full price for the second pack, I'd still say Fibbage and YDKJ are worth $13. Like I said, most people will probably just want to play Fibbage anyways, and there are around 250 questions, so it's not like you'll run out of them quickly. And by the time you do the second pack will probably be on sale.

    I've never really been able to put into words how much I love FFVI, but "a lot" gets pretty close.

    Also, this is probably a mandatory link for any mention of FFVI from now on:

    I think that part, which stuck with me, is why I love FFIX so much, and am so sad it will probably never see a re-release. How all the character's stories intertwined was fantastic, and totally reminded me of the multiple protags of VI, which ties with IX as my favorite FF of all time.

    @destroyah87 I don't want to get your hopes up, but the Subnautica Trello just dropped the section that held the previous update, and they added another person onto the H2.0 poster card. I'm doubtful that anyone would push out an update over the Christmas holidays, but they seem to be quite close. Farming probably won't be part of the H2.0 update, but should come shortly after.

    That'd be pretty awesome. Though, yeah, I wouldn't expect anybody to be doing any updates over the holidays that weren't absolutely critical.

    After reading up on the sunken bits of the Aurora, I decided I'd wait for the H2.0 update or farming update before playing another new game (marathon session and/or streaming possible)
