Pete Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Wait. You want us to cover you in cement and stick you in a basement? Pete! Do we still have all that builder's sand? Yes, and I have a paint roller in my hand so if I can find the mini cement mixer then we can make it look like nothing happened. Oh, wait, we're not taking about burying him. My bad!

FullAuto Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 We have been following it for a long time now, remember (1, 2)? We're the best skull hunters. :: Those guys just went mostly silent-mode after that with no real new media to speak of. We'll ambush their General one of these days yet... I remembered right after I posted that, seems like ages since we last heard from them.

FullAuto Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Have you heard of Zombie Exodus? Promptly got this, and despite the erratic quality of the writing and copious errors, it's still pretty enjoyable (boo to meeting the same characters down what are supposed to be branching paths though). Tried to buy Cathedral, won't let me. Fine, you don't want my money, I can be 63 pence richer then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silencer_pl Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9QtS96ZZ2M Here is a very good intro for the game if you are still wondering should I buy it. I know I will and I may share it with you (the gameplay of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silencer_pl Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Are discounts really hurting game industry that badly ? https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/04/06/gog-talks-preserving-value-of-games-slow-death-of-drm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 “Heavy discounts are bad for gamers,” Rambourg explained. “If a gamer buys a game he or she doesn’t want just because it’s on sale, they’re being trained to make bad purchases, and they’re also learning that games aren’t valuable. We all know gamers who spend more every month on games than they want to, just because there were too many games that were discounted too deeply. That’s not good for anyone.” Seriously, I'd slap that guy. With pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FullAuto Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 It's a bit of a laugh, coming from GOG. Their games are extremely cheap, and it's not like Steam is slapping 80% discounts on new games, they're squeezing the last few or starting a whole new run of sales of a particular title that has fallen out of the limelight. “If a gamer buys a game he or she doesn’t want just because it’s on sale, The daftest thing I've heard in a long time. Let me get this straight: some people buy games they don't want just because it's on sale? Ah. Um. No. If you don't want a game, you don't buy it.

silencer_pl Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Well maybe the point is this. I bought few games on Christmas sales but I don't have time for them. Going deeper If I don't have time for them I didn't need them but I bought them because they were on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yes, I've done that too, I've bought plenty of games I didn't have time for, but I have never bought a game I didn't want. Not needing them and not having time for them are not the same thing as not wanting them. I don't want the Mass Effect games, for instance, so I have never bought them. Nor will I ever, no matter how cheap they become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I have just had a thought about this thread. Why is it still being added to? It's 37 pages long and I think we created the General Gaming Discussion forum so it didn't need to keep being added to. Can we post new stuff in new topics in there from now on please?

Azrael Strife Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I always used it as random news about random games we don't usually cover, I think a game like Skyrim deserved its own topic since it's bound to generate a lot of discussion, but The Legend of Grimlock being released would probably earn very few replies if it had a topic for its own.

Pete Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I suppose if I'd bothered to look, the forum does indeed get used just as I suggest. Carry on people, nothing to see here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 It's a slightly tricky one though as I imagine (not having actually checked) that these all started out as Indie titles from Indie devs that ended up finding a publisher in EA. That said, you're not really independent any more if you've got a giant of a publisher releasing your games, so maybe it's actually pretty clear cut.
