    Has anyone re-cleaned their steam games after Steam freaked out and re-downloaded all redistributables?

    I got emails confirming my refunds for both the THPS HD base game and the revert pack, and since I figured I'd just have them refund it to my steam account (to make things easier) they said that the funds would be available within seven days, but my wallet in the client says that the funds are pending and will be available within 24 hours. For anyone who has done a refund to their wallet, how long did it take the money to be marked as available?

    The Mushroom skill in DoD is amazing for non-casters. Possibly even for casters but especially for non-casters since it gives you a variety of buffs and a source of healing.

    It took about 15 minutes last I did it, but I can't be exact because the funds just showed up between me looking, and changing window on Steam. I'd guess it's going to depend on their processing queue, but it has seemed to be pretty quick on the times I've done it. Refunding to a Credit Card / Paypal definitely took a couple of days, but Wallet has definitely seemed pretty quick in the past.

    My Dark Souls 3 refund showed as "pending" within a few minutes, and was deposited in my Steam wallet the next morning.

    Apparently there's a "leaked game map" circulating that purports to be a map for Red Dead Redemption 2.

    Please let it 1.) be true, and 2.) get a PC release this time, god damnit.

    I've pretty much abandoned the non-PC market. So I really hope it gets a PC release.

    On another note: I've reinstalled and made a new character for dark souls 1 and just got through the tutorial. I have no idea what I'm doing or how I should build my zombro. But he's got a sweet haircut.

    Well, this is a thing... A fantasy action RPG based on African culture/lore/environments? With good looking art? Put me on the list for "Intrigued"!
    i saw that and it does look really good, im also curious.

    i also eso talk to follow so feel free to gloss over the following
    i want to talk about how pretty ESO is, its got its hooks in me again. i recall when it came out gabe of penny arcade fame mentioned he didnt like it because it was too realistic looking and he prefers an mmo where it looks cartoony, but i personally think its great. and they also fixed the reason i stopped playing back in the day which was severe balance issues with the classes, so i currently have no complaints. although i finished the main story line with my main character, which has a really cool ending and also what happens after is pretty clever as well, but i still started a alt character and let me tell you if you make a low level vampire character, there is a questline that takes place in a volcano and vampires dont like fire, i died alot, like a whole lot. stupid flame atronachs

    Flora's Fruit Farm is one of the gag gifts one of the people from here gave me once upon a time. I actually enjoy games like this (many levels, make money and work your way through a story, etc), but this one...hm. I'm 8 levels in, and the tutorial STILL isn't done (which railroads you instead of letting you do the various levels), but beyond that....I've beaten 8 levels, but I'm actually only 5 levels in. Because the thing doesn't save after every level, and also doesn't tell you when it DOES save. After quitting the last time because I needed to go do something else, I went and checked, and...yep. Going to have to do those two levels again. *sigh*

    Posting this now because I'm honestly not sure if I'm going to go back to it. It's one thing for repetitive gameplay while still having some degree of progression, but doing the same levels over and over because the game can't be bothered to track progress is a bit too much.

    You all should totally buy this. I've completed different versions of it 5 times, and it's been fun every time. And while STCE is the definitive experience, Gold is still totally worth playing. And the soundtrack is one of my go-to "let's get to work" albums. I should feel bad for how many times I've bought this game, but I can't because it's so good.

    And if you've got somebody local STCE does up to 4-person coop. And it's great. It scales up the difficulty with more players, and the combat remains super fun when there are multiple Juans and Tostadas running around.

    I think he's just saying that that map is impossible from a geographic standpoint, like many videogame maps. You have rivers that flow from nowhere, islands that don't make sense from a positioning standpoint, climates that don't make sense, etc.

    Yea I was thinking that could have been it, or the travel the length of the map bit, just wasn't really sure. Thought I'd ask.

    Hell, for some reason at the beginning of RDR itself, you're taking a paddle boat across a lake.


    Mexico in RDR was both awesome and horribly fucking laid out. It reminded me of Alderney in GTA4 (except for all the missions there being lame) in that it had a whole different flavour all its own. But not enough reason to actually explore it and everything was on the other side of the map from where you were.

    And dammit I want better Liar's Dice tables. Poker outside the saloon in Blackwater was fun when you had a full or nearly full table to play against. Liar's Dice against maybe two people was boring.

    In the books, certain people in this fantasy world can effectively solidify light into a physical substance called Luxin. Each color has specific properties.

    Properly drafted, blue luxin is strong, green is flexible, orange is slippery, etc... some are even flammable. They can be combined to reenforce and enhance each other into things like weapons, buildings, even machines, if made properly.

    The powerful have access to multiple colors, and there is always one person who can access all of them who serves as a sort of leader.

    It's a good series.

    Congratulations, @DyasAlure ! I worded the contest poorly. Your entry is technically correct, which is the best kind of correct!

    While I can't find any evidence of your player even warming a bench this season, she is in a loose sense a member of the USA Eagles who did play in Canada last weekend. Your copy of Final Fantasy IX will be delivered by registered mail in 6 -12 weeks.
