- One of those character creators that combines a high level of customizability with no one ever saying "So, uh, what does it look like when you try to make a black person in this?"
- The game itself is basically a single player only version of the worst kind of free-to-play pc/mobile MMOs, from the barren "kill seex snow mooze" gameplay to the overstuffed UI to the multiple obtuse and confusing level-up systems and currencies.
- Free to play! Want nudity? That'll be at least fifteen dollars, thanks.

Just got a new GPU to replace the one I bought cheap back when I wasn't sure how this return to PC gaming would go. Benchmarks were promising, so GTA5 and Project Wingman, here I come. Right after I finish Mirror's Edge. Man, what a gorgeous game. Also one that really benefits from not being kneecapped by old console framerates.

I guess there's some tricks you can do to get some money out of dungeons early, but it's pretty bad for time spent on a whole. I got as far as grif and nearly beat him then I messed up and died and haven't played since.
the one thing I don't like about it is the little tutorial sabotages new players by actively encouraging haggling with people, which fuck up your combos and makes things way harder. that and you always have to make your shop a dark atmosphere so that stupid fucking scam woman never comes around
I've noticed that people complain a lot about colossal tiddies in videogames, but no one has a problem when every male character in every game ever has a super defined sixpack, colossal pecs, biceps as big as their head, and a jawline sharp enough to cut steel.
League of Maidens looks like a game by and for horny 13 year olds, we're not talking about Citizen Kane here.
Oh shit, I forgot to mention, I was pretty stoked about The Sinking City when I first saw trailers a while back. While I am normally the kind of person who staunchly advocates for separating Art from Artist, but (assuming what Frogwares is claiming is true) selling the game on Steam while you're in the middle of legal disputes is a pretty shady move, doubly so if the master you are selling is a copy of the game that you bought from a completely different storefront and then hacked. I know it looks rad, and I know it's on sale for only $16, but I have to be strong and wait.

Really? From what I've seen, the lack of body size variety is a common complaint, for male and female characters.
I mean, look at the first few Gears of War games. #1 complaint I've seen about that artstyle is that the male characters are all ridiculously jacked. (Well, maybe #2 after "This is grey as hell")

I was going to say the real equivalent would be Conan Exiles, but honestly the real equivalent would be the early Cyberpunk bug where body parts weren’t hiding themselves correctly with certain outfits so people were running around otherwise dressed reasonably appropriately with massive dongs hanging out for no reason.

Just a low-profile GTX 1050Ti. But I'm very pleased with how it's performing, considering I just dropped it, with some more RAM and an SSD, into an SFF PC with an i5 that I bought dirt cheap a year ago for ripping my DVD collection. This ultra budget setup looks like it'll hold me over until I go 4K with a purpose-built gaming rig.

Power fantasy or sexual fantasy, they're both still unrealistic body standards. An unrealistic body standard double standard. I'd go so far as to say that something like League of Maidens is less harmful to a female's body image than your average super cut male protagonist is for a male's, solely based on the fact that the bodies in LoM are so outlandishly unattainable that they're cartoonish.

Nice. A friend of mine has a 1050ti and he played through the new Tomb Raider trilogy with it. He had to lower some settings, but he got them running fairly well. It also handled Just Cause 3 fairly well at 1080p.

Haggling is an important part of the game but you do need to figure out the different ranges different character types accept. Without it, combos are worth a lot less. Just as importantly, customer reputation increases a lot faster when you hit the sweet spot for their haggling percentages. Reputation boosts a character type's budget so they'll be able to afford more expensive items. Unfortunately the notification you get that you hit or almost hit (which is still a bonus over not hitting) a customer's sweet spot is not explained. I had no idea what "Just Bonus" and "Near Pin" meant before looking those up.
Hey, is there literally any point to the Steam trading card thingies other than... I don't know, a weird collection hobby where you're collecting a thing that doesn't even really exist (unlike, say, baseball cards) and isn't part of any sort of game (unlike, say, M:tG cards, or cosmetics for characters in online multiplayer games where other people will see you being shiny)
Apparently you can sell them for a few cents credit to your Steam account? If there's literally no purpose to them other than being random vanity items on my Steam account, I figure I might as well get the $0.09 cents of store credit or whatever.
Steam cards are mostly useless and there's not much reason not sell them. You can craft badgers out of them, which levels up your account and increases the max size of your friend list.

Wow I literally don't care about the social aspects of steam at all, so, might as well sell 'em.
*edit* I did have one Badge I could craft, and because it was Transistor, I was like actually okay, I'll do that. But I have no interest in trading for other crap and so since I don't have any other sets, /shrug

The only function Steam Cards serve is to earn Valve money on every buy/sell transaction. The whole scheme is literally designed for their benefit, not yours.

I mean, tastes vary wildly, because people, but on average, "female aimed dude character design" is probably going to look closer to Final Fantasy than Gears of War.
Really, FF has been pretty lady-targeted since after 10 or so, and by and large it has only helped the series.

you always want to offer a price that they will accept the first time, otherwise it breaks your combo. you might get a little more money haggling, but in the end you want the combo exp more because it unlocks features you need to make the big money. the other part that is essential is raising people wallets, because early on the little girl can only afford items <250, which is nothing. but that jumps to like 3000 once you sell her enough stuff.
if you try to haggle and don't know about combos you almost certainly will fail to pay off the debt your first playthrough and that probably turns people off

Combos don't have an effect on customer budgets. That's a function of reputation with the customer type. It takes 10 rep increases to boost a wallet. A normal acceptance boosts rep by 1. A Near Pin boosts rep by 2. A Just Bonus gives a boost of 5.
Combos are great for boosting merchant exp which is vital, but you really want both that and the reputation boosts from Just Bonuses.
