It's an origin game, but when I bought it in a Humble Bundle I thought was a steam game so it counts ( also, screw ever having an Origin thread)
I got new video card a bit ago, and it feels like a cheat code.
When I was learning and getting good at Plants vs Zombies garden warfare,I was using a total junk video card, people would be invisible for half the match sometimes, had to lead shots like 4-5 seconds in advance etc, still powered through and got good.
Then new video card arrived, holy cow, I can see people, I can shoot at where I'm aiming. I constantly get called a Hacking [insert slur here]
It's amazing what a difference being able to see the other people in a multiplayer shooter makes!
and now stuff like this happens in Team Deathmatch
Just a heads up, the Total War Humble Bundle just added the Shogun 2 and Napoleon collections, which are probably the best games Creative Assembly have ever made plus basically all the DLC for them
And for fifteen bucks you get all that plus Rome 2 and a bunch of its DLC
This bundle might be one of the craziest I've seen in terms of sheer bang for your buck value
Damn that is good, still hard to top the Game Maker bundle a few weeks ago tho, that had over 1000$ in programs for 15$

It's like the video game equivalent of training with weighted clothing.

It is really almost too much game. I used to play Medieval II a lot, but none of the other games ever hit for me. Not sure why. But I dropped at least 50 hours into Medieval II, and could have done much more.

Yeah, out of that bundle, which games do I actually want to play? Like what's the best experience for Total War for someone who has really only played the original Shogun?
I've only owned Rome 1 or Shogun 2, but I'd definitely recommend either of them - out of Shogun , Rome, and Shogun 2, Shogun 2 is the one I've played enough to actually beat (which was a ton of time goddamn). Rome 2 I played ~24 hours of during one of those free weekends, just been waiting for it to drop to a low enough price + for me to have enough free time for it to be worth it, so I'd probably recommend that too.
I finished Mad Max last night. It was pretty good. I'm not going to go on and 100% it though, most of the stuff left is boring scavenging sites and too many races.
Not sure what I will play next. I have Cities Skylines but it seems like the expansion is coming out very soon. Not sure if I should start it before then or just wait for the xpac. I will probably start War for the Overworld, it just got a big update that I was waiting on. And Fallout 4 looms, when is it releasing?
I need a quick look of undertale to sell me on it I think. It seems like Earthbound?
the artstyle/feel/writing is like earthbound, but the combat is way different.
when you enter a random battle, the enemy attack is a bullet hell where you have to dodge unique formations. The player attacks are timing based. You can also "spare" every enemy you come across including bosses, and the road to getting them to be "sparable" is a puzzle in and of itself. it's super fun.
Darkest Dungeon is a lot more fun when you stop thinking of it as a game in which you nurture special snowflakes to be the best that they can be and start seeing it as a grinder that you throw flesh at to process it into money to build a better pub.
There will be a better tomorrow. None of you will see it. It will be built on and using your corpse.

My understanding is that the Windows drivers for the Xbox One controller map it to XInput, which means any game that supports the 360 controller will support the XB1 controller.

I recently upgraded my computer with a 970gtx.
What am I doing with this massive workhorse of a video card?
Fucking Skyrim again. Back down that rabbit hole. Three hundred dollar video card and I spend a weekend installing graphics mods and shit for a five year old game I've already put 100+ hours into.
But god damn does it feel good to get back into it again. Having a fucking ball with it.

The writing is serious incredible. There's also a fair amount of meta narrative, in case you feel strongly (positively or negatively) about that sort of thing
Slight spoilers
The game recognizes the players ability to save and load the game, in a completely straight-faced way that actually works within the world.
There are also several ways of playing and finishing it, some that entirely change the flow of the game.
like, I don't think I'm going to be able to get very far bad
Fill your inventory with as many healing items as you can afford
If you're doing a Full Mercy playthrough, you won't need that money for anything other than armor and the occasional weapon that gives you nice defensive/healing bonuses.
I really really really want to fucking play this. But I just bought the Witcher 3 and now I should wait but I keep looking at it like mmmm AUUGHGGH GOD FUCK
HEY OKAY UNDERTALE; I really want the shit out of it. Anyone want to trade an Undertale Steam gift for Don't Starve/Don't Starve Together? Or Left 4 Dead 2? Or both? I'll cut myself for you

I have tried the random stat gains on level ups in xcom a few times and all it seems to do is give everyone heavy accuracy level ups which obviously sucks

It also randomizes hp and willpower as far as I can tell? Random starting stats also randomizes speed. I had an assault colonel with 2 less hp and a sniper with +5 aim for example, but overall I didn't see much imbalance towards aim.
You just need a standard micro USB cable to connect any Xbox One controller.
Tho, now I forget if it was ps or xbox my buddy got one for, but am sure both have em, you can just get a usb dongle to let your pc use those controllers wirelessly too, and they are pretty cheap

That was for 360, that dongle doesn't work with Xbone pads. But there's one for XBone pads incoming in...November? afaik. However, that's only going to work with Windows 10.

RA2 and Yuri's revenge are both free on Origin as well.

I couldn't find any redone models that weren't fucking gross
even realistic horse vulvas?
I meant more of the swords and armors. I think there's a bunch of higher-poly stuff and new stuff. Redone character models are often dicey.

Geralt shut up I want pixels in my butt
man
they really fucked that thing to death, huh
it suuuuuure is
Almost tempted to dig for my crappy old laptop and see if that can go back in time a bit better
Looks like they are putting out a wireless adapter for it this year too.
Good stuff.
