Does this game have a proper story and ending?
I'm fine with strolling aroung a lonely world - if I'm strolling for a reason...

Quoting: natewardawgHaha, pretty cool. I'm sure putting that together was a fun accomplishment. :)
This is a real achievement, compared to those virtual ones.

(Although I am proud of some of them, like beating a certain game.)

We're still talking about gaming, aren't we? Otherwise this conversation took a really sad turn somewhere...
Now this would be really sad. :-D

Quoting: tuubiYeah, that's how we do it. We've enjoyed several classic RPGs and adventure games together over the years. This only works with games you can play at your own pace though.
Could you borrow me your wife?
Mine unfortunately isn't into that, and I liked it so much...

;)

Multiplayer Co-op? Or kinda "hotseat"-like? Last time I've checked PoE only supported single player but maybe I've been misinformed.
I used to play point and clicks with my former girlfriend. Just sitting together at the computer and deciding or puzzling together...

As others already pointed out, btf GmbH is working for television and at least one of their products is long-running and well known in Germany (and Turkey ;) ). I didn't know the company before (as it's the case with most companies behind the TV formats you see), but they should be professionals with professional equipment and daily jobs that keep them from starving while creating the game. I think they do earn some trust.

Valve has added 11 new currencies to the Steam Store

Quoting: knroI got an email from Steam last week saying that I will be paying with Kuwaiti Dinar soon. Does that mean no fees for currency exchange to dollars?
Yes. ...but as it seems, the new prices might not always be better than the exchange price. :-/
(I wonder if average wages in Kuwait are above or below in say the US, though?)

Quoting: 14Feel free to look into how they're handling malloc. My system freezes before even half my swap space is used up.
I wouldn't know how to reach that even I wanted to. It's not like malloc would tell you if the space is swapped, or does it?
