Cliff Hanger Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Warner/Netherrealm finally confirmed The Atom for IJ2. He's coming in December, and it's Ryan Choi which makes me incredibly happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Is Picross S the best game to come out this year? I'm not sure, but I can make an argument that it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I have the Grim Dawn expansion downloading at home. Now I just have to shine it on for four more hours at work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I am doing a Death Knight (Soldier/Necromancer) out of the gate. Most of the actual new game content I probably won't see for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, but is it easy to play in bed and on my back porch? (Seriously, thank you for the info - just another game to check out on Steam, preferably before I buy Football Manager and that takes up a huge chunk of my time on PC this year.) On another note, I got one 'o them SNES Classics to go with my NES Classic. I modded it. Now, it's not merely an eighty dollar emulator trapped in a cool form factor, but a complete escape back to my simple youth, when I didn't have to worry about paying bills or getting nuked. In other words, it was well-worth the money. Also, I still remember where all the secret exits are in Super Mario World somehow; the information is buried deep in my subconscious. Playing the game again for the first time in maybe eight or nine years feels weird, as I don't actually remember fully where those goals are, but I'm guided to them somehow without even realizing it or actively trying to explore the levels. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I committed a while ago mentally to doing Death Knight* but I have to admit the Inquisitor looks really cool and I want to experiment with it too. On paper I don't really see a weak skill. I also didn't even realize until yesterday we were getting extra stash space, which I guess isn't really needed in a game that lets you mule so easily but is still a great convenience for the shared stash. (*My go to in Diablo II when all else failed to inspire me was always Concentrate Barbarian, so a stand-and-deliver tank, so this is really quite similar.)

Andrew POE! Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Humble Bundle got bought out by IGN. So all the money you pay for bundles will go to a site that will give 9.0 to the latest COD. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I was starting to struggle in Grim Dawn and thought I was going to have to rethink my build until I realized I hasn't actually been assigning my devotion points. Oops. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogwelder Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Golf Story is one of the best retro RPGs I've ever played. And I'm not that much of a golf fan to begin with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I thought Turing Test was pretty easy, then I got to like puzzle #13 or something and I rage quit. I'm getting some serious Portal vibes from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 So in the next two weeks I'll go from having a minimal backlog to having Assassin's Creed, Mario Odyssey, South Park, and Shadow of War. All games/franchises I've really been looking forward to. RIP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJay Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Listening to you all talking about the Grim Dawn expansion is killing me. Saving money mode until after little one's bday. I should be able to get it in a few weeks. Sounds pretty great! Cannot wait!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I thought I was going to be fine. I thought I would be able to successfully tell myself "nah, you don't need this thing. You can wait until next summer. Like, seriously, what difference is it really going to make?" And then it was under two weeks away. And then it was no longer fine.

Tromatagon Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 South Park drops today, and I'm excited. Stick of Truth was probably the funniest video game I've ever played. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the base game? If not it's only $7 on Humble for another day or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Yeah I actually got the base game cheap off humble as well when I got it. The three stores I actually tend to watch the most are Steam, Humble, and Bundlestars. I have this nagging guilt in the back of my head that I really should buy some stuff on GOG at some point given all the amazing free shit they have just given away over the years.

Zimbra Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I mostly buy off Steam or Humble for the convenience and the auto-updates. I like GOG as a company and I buy classic stuff from them, but their Galaxy client has always run like ass on my computer and at this point I'm way to lazy to manually patch stuff. GOG's sales are pretty great, but it seems like everyone's are these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
