    How far into Psychonauts do you have to go for the cheevo? I am weighing the merits of buying it.

    You can download a save game to be at the right point to do it (someone posted one on the first page of this thread http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2289327 )

    Otherwise I think you have to be a bit into the game.

    My first attempt at the Dungeons of Dredmor objective resulted in no Diggle Eggs on the first floor. The second time around I found plenty, but Grog took a while to find. I forgot about the vending machine, but I was having fun anyways.

    There is a skill you can start with that lets you loot vending machines. I got super lucky and looted a grog, and found diggle eggs like two rooms in. I need to go back and play that game for realsies. I forgot how fun it was.

    An hourish? You can just download a save file from the wiki though, walk outside, and toast critters within 2 minutes.

    Its worth buying the game, objectives be damned. That said, there are saves you can borrow that will put you where you need to be to get today's done.

    I thought we were ok to go over 100 pages with the new forum setup and all? I may have misread that somewhere.
    We should get the software crap Something Awful has. They have 800+ page topics out the yin-yang

  • darunia106darunia106 J-bob in games Death MountainRegistered User regular
    The point of the 100 page limit doesn't have anything to do with software, it's so people who come here can actually read the threads and not have to sift through 800+ page megathreads.

    Is buying a game specifically for the cheevo (with no other interest in the game or even genre) a rational thing people do? I'm just looking for you enabling bastards to convince me I'm not crazy to buy DoD to play it for 5 minutes and then never look at it again.

    Exactly this. However, last I heard, Tube and the mods frown very sternly on premature new threads as well.

    The new thread will go up after we hit 99 pages, to make it official. Again, don't worry, there will be plenty of room for posting.

    You ARE crazy! :P
    For not buying DoD at that price.
    And for thinking you will never look at it again!

    It's also a tradition/holdover from the old forum software/servers/whatevers that used to shit themselves when obnoxiously large threads used to build up. Like, end of times kinda stuff.

    That said, the old forum default was (as I recall) 25 posts per page (so a thread at 100 was 2500 posts) but I believe the new one defaults to 40, so the new 100 page cap is over 50% bigger than the old 100 page cap.

    First they came for the Muslims, and we said NOT TODAY, MOTHERFUCKER!

    Yeah, the only time we even get close to Megathreads is during E3, where the live keynotes make the forum explode. Though last year the forums kept dying every five minutes, so maybe this year we'll actually get to megathread status :P

    that psychonauts cheevo sucks for grabbing quickly, I ran around trying to get it for 1.5 hours til i said fuckit and moved onto tropico 4, DoD, and AI war.

    the ai war one is even worse, so I may grab a save file for that

    DoD is amazing and you should buy it now, especially at the sale price. Think of the achievement as just icing on the already delicious, delicious cake.

    Apparently a new soundtrack was released with those sorta bands doing covers of the songs. I may have to buy it.

    Also guys, if you want a fun city builder? Tropico 4 is hard to beat. It has a campaign mode, which modern builders seem to lack?, and it has a ton of humor. Its not superduper crazy deep (Build a power plant, a certain radius gets power. no building power lines or anything), but it is fun and the politics make it really interesting. You going to help out Europe because they give you a ton of trade money, but the action will piss off America who are not assassinating you?

    Only "Fig" I know of in PA is Figment, but you can always check which groups they're a part of to see if they are PA or not.
