Backed! I really enjoyed chapter 1!

I'm guessing we'll see at least one of the other two Deponia games next week. Probably both of them.

Any other guesses as to the games that will be added next week?

To me, this is a definite win. We've lost nothing from the tarballs, but we've gained differential patching.

I'm just thankful for differential patches. It really sucked re-downloading a 10GB tarball each time Wasteland 2 updated. I wonder if I'll have to redownload everything to make use of the differential patches, or if I can just extract them overtop of the tarball install?

Quoting: Mountain ManAnd that does make sense for Stellaris I suppose: Want diplomatic play to be more in-depth, but couldn't care less about exploration? Then you can skip on one DLC and buy another. Pricing remains vital, though.

Pricing is my main complaint. Looking at EU4, the base game is around $40CDN. There are then more than 30 DLC with a total cost of around $180CDN!

I have a real love / hate relationship with Paradox. I love the games, I love the Linux support.

I hate all the bloody DLC. I hate the fact that you can spend more on DLC than the base game cost.

I hope it comes to GOG.

Thanks for the benchmarks, guys. That gives me a pretty good idea of where I'll be at with my i7 / GTX765M combo ... assuming I ever manage to finish downloading it.

At least I know performance will good enough that I can keep working on downloading.

I am a good hunter!

From an early age, I took part in many, many successful hunts for the not-so-elusive Urocitellus richardsonii (Richardson Ground Squirrel AKA gopher). These spectacularly enjoyable hunts are also a great way to increase ones social skills and compare hunting techniques (see ,"sitting on the deck with friends, drinking beer, shooting gophers " for a more in depth explanation).

I have also successfully defended my humble abode against an invasion of several Columba livia domestica (Pigeon) that tried to take up residence in my garage. It was a long fight, but ultimately my opposable thumbs were victorious.

In addition to the above described kills, I have also successfully hunted countless Targetus papyrus (Paper Target). While these do not pose much of a difficulty, it is their sheer number that requires the hunt. I've shot hundreds, if not thousands, and I don't feel like I've really made a dent in the population.

One of the impressive things about these conquests, is that they have all been undertaken with the same weapon: my not-so-trusty Farmers Rifle -1 (crusty old .22 with crooked iron sites).

I am hunter, here me .... uhhhh .... bang!
