    Game News Arcanum and Quest for Glory 1-5 released on Steam

    Are there any differences between the Steam and GOG versions of Arcanum? I got the bundle for 20$ and am wondering whether there is any reason to install the game on Steam and import my save files rather than just stick with good ol' GOG.

    Death Trash - edgy post-apocalyptic isometric action-RPG - now available on Early Access

    Yeah, because combat alone isn't enough to determine whether something is an RPG. RTwP stand for Real Time with Pause (emphasis mine) and it's definitely not TB so... 1. Planescape Torment 9. Gothic 2 11. Deus Ex 22. System Shock 2 22. The Witcher 26. Gothic 29. Alpha Protocol 40. The Witcher...

    Death Trash - edgy post-apocalyptic isometric action-RPG - now available on Early Access

    Yeah right, because Planescape: Torment, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines and Fallout: New Vegas aren't RPGs.

    Death Trash - edgy post-apocalyptic isometric action-RPG - now available on Early Access

    I think you're missing the point. *If* there is no choice regarding your characters gender then you're most likely going to be playing as a dude. Also, a quick analysis of the 'RPG Codex Top 70 PC RPGs' list shows that at least 20% of the games featured force one to play as a male character (and...

    Death Trash - edgy post-apocalyptic isometric action-RPG - now available on Early Access

    Let's see: The Gothic (Risen too) series Deus Ex Fable Dark Messiah Bastion (tough it's the other way round in Transistor so...) Consortium (your character may well be female, it's just that you are controlling Bishop 6 anyway) Alpha Protocol System Shock 2 (System Shock and Bioshock games too...

    The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

    So I'm currently considering whether to buy the following games: Styx: Master of Shadows (http://store.steampowered.com/app/242640) - currently 75% off, I'm looking for something similar to Dark Messiah, is this a good fit? Invisible, Inc. (http://store.steampowered.com/app/243970) - -66%, TB...

    The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

    You could also try salenauts.com, just search for a game there and you'll see if it's available on Steam/GOG (and it has the added benefit of listing the current prices).

    Game News Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear Released

    The new UI will take getting used to, can't honestly say that I'm sold on it. I won't pass any judgement on the quality of SoD yet, need time to actually play but it must be good because there's achievements.

    Community Codex GOTY 2015 - Results

    It is misleading because the poll was divided into three categories and so comparing all of the games with each other changes the results, compare 'The Fall of Dungeon Guardians'(16th in GOTY, 29th overall) and 'Fairytales: Three Heroes' (17th in GOTY, 26th overall, a game with 100% 1s awarded...

    Community Codex GOTY 2015 - Results

    I really appreciate your effort and by no means do I claim the results are rigged or anything like that, I just wanted to point out that the 'Overall Results' tab is somewhat misleading (in the end it matters little, I guess, seeing how the most important games stayed where they were).

    Community Codex GOTY 2015 - Results

    Figured out that much but it still makes one question the methodology, don't it? I mean it's hard to talk about any objectivity whatsoever if removing or adding games affects the position of others. Especially since there's so many games for which hardly anyone had voted.

    Game News Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear available for pre-order, coming March 31st

    Are you sure it's not just an oversight on their part that the other editions lack the 'Steam key included' tag? According to their FAQ: Q: If I buy on Beamdog.com will I get a Steam key? Yes. After the release of the game you can contact support@beamdog.com to request a Steam key...

    Community Codex GOTY 2015 - Results

    It's funny how in some cases the results change depending on the tab, compare the 'Overall results' and 'GOTY' for Fallout 4 and Sword Coast Legends for instance. Is this some SJW inclusivity agenda to allow both of them the prestige of being the worst game of the year?
