desura

That's the problem though. If it was Unepic on Steam I'd probably just go for it for two games for $5ish. DESURA GAMES AIN'T NO GAMES AT ALL.

It has also a standalone installer that doesn't need Desura. The game is less than 60 MB. Anyway, I bought the bundle, because I wanted to see the Geneforge games. Well, I guess I have seen them now.

aperture labcoat, seriously?

$5 for Geneforge? Sure, I'll bite. Puzzle Agent is great as well, can't comment on the others.

Seems like upcoming Indie Gala will have these games:


Rig N' Roll
Death to Spies
Death To Spies: Moment of Truth
Theatre of War 2: Africa 1943
King's Bounty Armored Princess
Star Wolves
UFO Afterlight
Reign: Conflict of Nations
Space Rangers

Will be picking that up for sure if that's accurate.

Are they ever going to do anything with Galapoints?

 

[Metro]

Nice.

 

[TripJack]

new humble bundle

you dont even want to know whats in it

 

[Metro]

Fucking music...

 

[Secretninja]

Paid a penny for the Valkyria Chronicles.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

This music doesn't activate on Steam! Just what are you trying to pull, Humble Bundle?

(bought it for a penny anyway though i doubt i'll listen to any of it. supposedly it costs them more than a penny to accept a penny payment so i feel i did good)

 

[sgc_meltdown]

Pay more than the average of $8.02 to unlock OK Go!

That Geneforge bundle is a really good deal. I just got done playing through the Geneforge saga from start to finish (although I did take breaks to play other things), and it had some low points (Geneforge 3), but the highs are really high. Geneforge 5 is one of my favorite RPGs ever, actually. It has 5 different political factions in the game, each with their own story lines and quests, so it's really fun playing them all off of eachother in different ways (if you keep your reputation just right, for example, you can join and betray them all one after another). You can also do stuff like that in G1 and G2, but G3 and G4 are less faction focused (G4 is still a good game, despite having only 3 factions, but G3 kind of sucks).

I'd say give them a try even if you hate Avadon and Avernum as they are very different. Avernum has always kind of been watered down Ultima and Avadon is very much a 2D turn based Bioware game, but the Geneforge saga plays much more like Fallout (only with a larger focus on combat).

The new Indiegala is up.

 

[Metro]

Anyone doing a group buy/happy hour on that?

 

[TripJack]

i'll probably try to find one on cag once the happy hour thing is up

 

[Metro]

Yar, $2ish for all those 1C games is pretty sweet.

 

[Awor Szurkrarz]

Fuck, Geneforge saga is up for 5 Euro when I don't have any money. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

 

[Metro]

i'll probably try to find one on cag once the happy hour thing is up

Yo, if I can't manage to find my way into one can you get a second gift copy for me. Most of the CAG'ers are 'Paypal or nothing' and I don't use Paypal. I could give you a $2.50 Steam game or a $3 GOG game (w/e is on sale this weekend) in exchange. Or an Amazon credit code.

Or Bruticis or one of you other hidden RPG Codex CAG'ers~

 

[TripJack]

sure i can probably do that

but why don't you use paypal?

 

[Bruticis]

Sorry, Metro, didn't see your message in time and just got it for myself. I don't like messing with the CAG group stuff, too much trouble. I'll hold off next time a bundle comes up and see if we can get a group going ourselves. I'm always down with Steam gifts.
Jack, I assume he doesn't use Paypal because they are horrible thieving scum (but sadly, I use it myself).

 

[Metro]

sure i can probably do that

but why don't you use paypal?

Cool, thanks. And yeah, I meant when one of the CAG guys does a massive happy hour purchase and sell them off for $2 or whatever. Just a bit harder for me to explain how I don't have a paypal account and try to negotiate other means of payment.

I don't really have any aversion to Paypal I just don't have an account. I think I went to set one up a while ago and couldn't tie it to a credit card for verification or whatever or couldn't transfer funds from the card to the actual account so I just never bothered with it again.

Got the pack yesterday, I was baffled by the payment method too. I tied my google account (which I use just for the email) to credit card, and it was rather simple and painless, contrary to Paypal.
