    I don't know what game this is, but I know that I don't need it:

    Luckily for you, I am an expert - by that I mean I just did it wrong three times and remembered the right way.

    {codes} URL or game key here {/codes}

    Except use regular braces ([]) instead of curly ones.

    edit: related - maybe we can get this in the OP? it'd be nice to have a quick spot to reference it from

    It's there in the FAQ section. :)

    listen, I can't possibly be expected to look in an FAQ section for a question I frequently have.

    I just bought a game on the humble store and selected a steam key but they sent me a download link

    what the hell am I doing wrong?

    If you already have the game in your Steam account, it might default to a gifting link which you can provide to someone else. When you buy a bundle and you already have the game in your Steam Library, they give you a gifting link instead of a steam key. Then the person who uses the gifting link gets the steam key.

    It was neither of those. It was a new game I don't own.

    I think I figured it out. If I go to Humble Bundle, sign in, click on purchases, click on Unredeemed Purchases, then find the game, then click on that, THERE'S the Steam key.

    sweet christmas, I'm never buying anything from them again.

    Jotun's the only one of those I've heard of, and I've already got it. Oh, and Vermintide, but I'm not really interested in that.

    Does the Vermintide include any of the DLC?

    HB always acknowledge quite clearly when any DLCs are included with the base game (either as part of a single key or as individual keys), so I would say it does not.

    I had fun with Turmoil during early access last year, but I haven't touched it since I completed a campaign. I'm kind of curious to see how much it has changed since then.

    Legends of Eisenwald is great. It's kinda like a medieval King's Bounty, except not Disneyfied-to-hell medieval times but real mud and sickness and greedy bishops and angry knights and religious fanaticism and nepotism and deadly curses low-magic medieval times. Some of the quests can be a bit obscure but I'm sure there's guides for them somewhere. I got distracted and didn't finish it but I really enjoyed my 22 hours with it.

    9 Black Deaths out of 10.

    Hmm... tempted by Jotun. That looks neat...

    Jotun is a very cool game, although it didn't really capture me as much as I wanted it to so I only played it for an hour or two. Some of it seems very slow, and sometimes hit collisions seemed off. Animations were pretty stellar though.

    Turmoil was fun to play through, but I have no burning desire to go back for cheevos or anything.

    I probably would have liked Jotun far more if it was just a boss rush instead of having me slog through hordes of enemies to get to the boss over the course of a long level in the case of the dwarf place.

    I think I play games like curses and chaos better with no sound.

    Or low sound.

    Also, I need to buy new speakers.

    Also, the magic drops are affected by your chain.

    Having beaten Jotun, I can say that dwarf level was the exception more than the rule.

    There are four worlds with the game's tutorial starting in one. Each world has you recover two runes to unlock the way to that world's boss to complete that world.

    The world and levels explore various aspects of Norse mythos as you fight or puzzle out your way to the rune. You can find hidden trees with the apple of life to raise your health pool and discover shrines to gain the favor of the gods and use their power to aid you in your quest. You can proceed through the worlds and levels at your choosing though there is a bit of a difficulty curve. The boss fights against the huge Jotun follow the same curve with the final two being pretty difficult.

    Overall it's a pretty fun game but kinda short game (clocked in at around 7 hours, maybe), only had one really frustrating level to get some optional stuff, very pretty art and music, and yay female protagonist.

    If you're looking for more of a hardcore boss rush game then I'd suggest Furi.

    Some pictures (minor first boss and location spoilers):

    Furi eh? I think I had that on my wishlist not long ago. Not sure why I removed it, so I'll give it another look. Thanks for the recommendation.

    And so, Monks & Mystics, 13th (!) dlc for Crusader Kings II is out today.

    As much as I would like to return to this madness infested, barely medieval anymore world, I think I should wait for some discount, even if small. 15 $ should be better saved on future Witcher 3 buy.


    Oh, who am I kidding, I will propably buy it tommorow anyway because I have absolutely no self control.
