QUOTE(mirocu @ Jan 19 2019, 09:58 AM) Well, Doom 2016 is out for me and only because of Steam.
Now, I'm not totally against online activation, both Bioshock and Bioshock 2 had it and I was fine with it. But Steam is different. I have to download a client and create an account and all that is too much for me. Just let me play the game I bought and paid for!

Welcome to PC gaming sadly . Although Steam has given me the entire Ys series (minus Ys V) so I can't be to bitter with it. QUOTE(Sakiri @ Jan 19 2019, 10:23 AM) When you buy most games these days you don't actually own it, you're just purchasing the license to play it... which can be revoked at any time.
I think I heard that in some European countries they have a law that once a person buys a game they own they own that copy of the game. This post has been edited by Dark Reaper: Jan 19 2019, 05:44 PM

QUOTE(monkeyemoness @ Jan 19 2019, 07:41 PM) Finished A Link Between Worlds. I noticed that I'm not the only one that thought the game was too short, but on the other hand there wasn't anything in the way of "padding". A well-put together game, imo. Might try Hero Mode, but for now it's Ocarina of Time, uh, time.
Also I finished the game to 100% as far as actual useful things go. I did NOT do the "endless" cuckoo minigame because spending 16+ minutes playing a bullet hell minigame for something that's barely helpful (giant cuckoo that gives you hearts when you talk to it) is not my idea of fun. There's also the bonus boss unlocked by participating in the multiplayer part of the game.
Nah, I'm content with all heart containers and upgrades, thanks.
Khajiit is currently playing Breath of the Wild. After he gets *satisfactorily* finished with that, this one may start Ocarina again. TBH, Khajiit is a little disappointed that he can’t find OoT on the Switch

Overnight I uploaded episode 14 in my Transport Fever Scenic Excursion series. It's a blasphemy episode in that for one third of its duration, the stretch of railway between Eastleigh and Morley, our route contains no added scenery whatsoever other than some seen at distance across the river. For this reason it almost didn't see light of day. After much debate I decided the scenery-barren segment contains enough train spotting to justify an upload. I grow more and more frustrated with my current TpF map due to its many failures. To correct these, assuming I can, will require nuking a major portion of my railway system to the ground and more or less beginning afresh. This I am reluctant to do. Besides, if I start afresh I'd rather do so with a new, larger map, either a downloaded custom map or a randomly generated map set to "huge." (My current map is "medium.") What's holding me back? First, I'm not yet quite sure what sort of railway network I want. Second, I don't believe I've learned how to avoid my current map's failures, especially in regard to Rail Freight. (I think I can now design a passable Rail Passenger Network.) Third, in some ways most significant, re-installing my 260-plus mods will be a major, time-consuming headache. The game's built-in mod manager gets the job done, but doesn't provide automatic transfer between maps with their proper load order retained. A third-party mod manager is available, but it's geared more toward non Workshop mods. Only a handful of mine aren't Workshop mods. This post has been edited by Decrepit: Jan 27 2019, 01:41 PM

I am so totally with Mirocu on this; but in order to be able to play some of the games I wanted to try; I finally broke down and got Steam and started getting games from them during their ridiculously low sales. The games don't mess up; but Steam does = A LOT. I have to constantly re-install the Steam Client and all the games because Steam keeps "losing" itself. The only way to handle Steam without having issues is = as soon as you have everything loaded and working right; put yourself in Offline mode. You will never have any issues with Steam or your games as long as you stay in Offline mode on your Steam account. Otherwise there is always something going wrong with it.
