Anybody feel like trading a Europe Universalis III steam code for a Legend of Grimrock?

[Gehrig Industries]

i tried grimlock on the most hardcore settings and quickly got destroyed

going to have to regroup on normal mode

[chairkicker]

game is punishing even on normal

are you guys all over this? there are some great things on there. also, some bewildering headfucks.

[Gehrig Industries]

grimrock is kind of fun just because i haven't played one of these in forever but it is broke as hell

like the shooting bows specialization skill tree pumps you up with tons of dexterity stat bonuses. then dexterity doesn't do anything at all except improve accuracy of melee attacks

i really love this game. i shouldn't have sold my 3DS

[arushofwings]

what game is that?

[Locke]

this one

[MADONNA WAYNE GACY]

i named my Yoshi "Efrim" after the GYBE dude when i played that game

i keep forgetting i have the first one on my wii. if i ever play another jrpg again that's probably going to be it.

[ifear]

guys, fez is legitimately incredible

[watchyourscrew]

i stayed up last night waiting for it go up but peaced out early, sweet. downloading now.

heard the new game+ is crazy

[fester]

this one

this game is surprisingly long

pretty good

[miss black america]

i have only played the trial but i thought it was pretty neat rather than incredible

does it become anything more than the opening levels suggested ie. you rotate the world, you jump left/right, ad infinitum

[Locke]

i'm gonna get fez i think

[dr. badvibes]

it looked pretty horrible to me. like take every nothing cutesy 2D platformer ever and graft Echochrome's gimmick over it. that's it?

[ifear]

oh god yes. even with such a straightforward mechanic, the puzzles get right fucking devious before long. getting all the anti-cubes in this is going to require serious mental heavy-lifting.

[miss black america]

alright i bought it

your bra bomb had better work, nerdlinger

[watchyourscrew]

i'm a few levels in, doing the water ones right now at the start. shit's cray. there are so many places to go....

pretty interesting article on a devs perspective in preventing used games sales on future consoles

[MADONNA WAYNE GACY]

yeah i think i'm gonna dust off my xbox to grab fez.

[Locke]

i just played a little bit.. i have three cubes i think? i can never remember which door goes where. i'm also stupid. i like it.

[Locke]

i'm so sick of the used games stuff.. hey retards stop making 100 million dollar games that have no value. make a game and sell it for 10 or 20 dollars.

[ifear]

yeah, this game is bewilderingly massive

[tex porneau]

i'm so sick of the used games stuff.. hey retards stop making 100 million dollar games that have no value. make a game and sell it for 10 or 20 dollars.

i'd pretty much agree with this, and I feel thats where digital sales are heading

[Locke]

like how do i keep track of where i'm going or what i forgot to do ahhhh this game is going to kill me!
