Darkest Dungeon: Fear is a mind killer, and so is Eldritch Pull
Dewar replied to Dr Wookie's topic in Video Gaming
Nice, looking forward to October. -
Dark Souls 3 {Dark souls 2 successor [Dark Souls successor (Demon's Souls successor)]} (Bloodborne's something)
Dewar replied to kaputt's topic in Video Gaming
Maybe that's you from the first game. -
Ha, some people saying some pretty crazy things about the Sounders game I posted about last night http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2015/06/17/seattle-sounders-lament-calls-leading-three-ejections-wild-us-open-cup-loss-

Halo 2 multiplayer is definitely one of my best gaming experiences. It's still pretty awesome playing it now in the Master Chief collection (when it works at least.) Having recently played part of the Halo 2 campaign with my wife, it has its ups and downs.

Seattle Sounders Soccer lost the first round of the open cup tonight, in a pretty shitty fashion, ending the game in overtime with 7 players on the field. I feel crappy for having watched it, and for asking my wife to pick me up after. just generally crappy about the whole thing really. Oh well.

I'd disagree and go with Reach. It's another self-contained story and had some pretty cool game play improvements. Halo 2 is pretty clunky these days, but actually connects up with the ODST story, so that could be interesting as well, but it shows its age some.

Man, that makes me miss the original Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter. Terrorist hunts on hard with no respawns were so intense. I don't know if I'd have the patience for failing that many times these days though.

Having played this recently, the game is pretty hard and there are ways to screw yourself pretty easily. I'd recommend at least taking a look at some skill breakdowns so you don't end up missing chunks of the game or getting stuck. http://galaraf.net/Divdiv/Skills/divine_divinity__skills.htm http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/371215-divine-divinity/faqs/47588 Despite it being rough around the edges, I enjoyed it a lot. Edit: Phew, slow sale day for me, nothing I'm super interested in. That being said, Grow Home is a steal for $4 and The Fall for $2 is ridiculous if you like that sort of game.

Giant Bomb did an East Coast Quicklook of Lisa, I am interested, but not sure if I'm in the mood for that band of depressing right now. Reyturner, those are both awesome games that scratch a slightly different turn-based-strategy itch. If you're into the genre, I'd suggest both

Dogmeat has been around forever where it feels like Activision just said "Put a dog in it, that'll make them care." To be fair, I feel like Activision is that cavalier about a lot of their choices, so I'm not the best judge.

still can't get's my Achenar permit

Whatever happened, it got noisy enough for my wife to hear about it and ask when I was buying Steam sale games if I knew I was getting an actual sale price. I pointed out that regular brick and mortar stores do it all the time, so it's just a matter of looking at the price and deciding if it's worth it for you.

They've done a good job of hitting the sweet spot for me this sale, but I've resisted and bought only "Long Live the Queen," "Sir, You Are Being Hunted," and "Tesla Effect" so far. Super tempted at the moment to buy Civilization:Beyond Earth, Dead Rising 3, GalCiv 3, and will probably buy CK2 DLC tonight when I get home.

The Fallout 3 lunchbox edition was the last special edition I purchased and it was well worth the money. I just might be crazy and get this.

Still no Steam game for me, oh well.

Hmm, Tesla Effect. I was going to buy it earlier, but then I went down the rabbit hole of looking at all the other Tex Murphy games and trying to decide if I wanted to start at the beginning or not. I played FMV games when I was younger, but not those particular ones.

The Other Paradox Games (Europa Universalis, Victoria, Hearts of Iron)
Dewar replied to Gormongous's topic in Strategy Game Discussion
My buddy and I are playing together as HRE members and I screwed up and gave a bunch of provinces away to keep my allies happy. Now that we're powerful enough, it's time to try and restore imperial integrity. Edit: I take solace in the fact that the AI will just suddenly change attitude for no reason, so it also feels like revenge. -
Me either. Play Now button immediately errors out and by the time I got home from work none of my friends had a game at the level I can play, yet it says that 2 million people are playing *shrug*

The Other Paradox Games (Europa Universalis, Victoria, Hearts of Iron)
Dewar replied to Gormongous's topic in Strategy Game Discussion
I still feel bad about turning on the AI. "Denmark trusts you utterly" is such a difficult thing to see, but they have land in the empire and someone has to take it back. -
The non-programmer way I would do it is have it report the path, then block various pages that come up until you get an accurate path. Keep doing this and eventually you'll have blocked all the main pages like "Crusades." Programming wise, maybe you could trim down the page you're searching strictly to the info box on the right?

Maybe you can grab one of the folks that programmed the many 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon websites out there and see if they can pull from Wikipedia.

The only reason I know is the Tested podcast. I had to Google to make sure it was true before I posted it.

I must have skipped before the notification then, sorry. I guess I was a bit paranoid because my wife wants to play it with me Edit: Funnily enough I stopped as soon as you said "Warning, watch out, he can't be stopped!" I appreciate you looking out for those of us who like to wait for all the episodes to be out before playing.

This must have been before Windows 10: Internet of things Core edition was announced, proving that tech companies are still behind every trend ever.
