Streets of Rogue adds 60 new traits along with a new booth to adjust your traits, plus livestream VOD is up
5 Oct 2018 at 10:20 am UTC

I'm currently addicted to this. I don't have too much of a clue what's going on though! And now all this new stuff's added :dizzy:

I've found it quite hard to get through more than a few levels at a time but I'm putting that down to me being too gung-ho and not patient enough. Just unlocked the vampire and that was fun. Glad the dev added being able to bite when your health's full :D

XCOM 2: War of the Chosen - Tactical Legacy Pack announced, bridges the gap between XCOM and XCOM 2
4 Oct 2018 at 11:14 am UTC

I so nearly bought XCOM 2 and War of the Chosen in the last sale but have such a backlog of games I put it off. Looks like I'll miss the free expansion now. I'm currently fiendishly hooked on Streets Of Rougue against my will anyway!

So much choice, so little time :dizzy:

Quoting: buenaventurasteamtrades is always an option for leftover games!
How does this work? Is it with gifts in your account and/or keys you've never used?
Hey! you just dont redeem the keys, and the I put up them on my "have" on steamtrades.com , and then when you trade you click "gift to a friend -> make a link" (on humblebundle) and give them the link. The person with the most +rep gets their keys first, and then you get yours. You connect your steam profile on that site, works well! Here is my page:

I've gotten so many fun games for all those windoz keys I have been hoarding since the beginning of humble bundle :P You can also just search for people who have one of your keys in their "want", and then look at their have and pick and choose!
Thanks for the info, I shall look into it. I shall have to trawl through all my humble bundles now!

Quoting: FaattoriIn my dreams, "Working with fire and steel" is Shadow of the Tomb Raider and "Aurora" is Hitman™ 2.
I'd take both of those, thank you very much! Otherwise I've no idea.

Off topic - re: nudity...

I don't know which game(s) anyone is referring to and I probably wouldn't be interested anyway but I have to chuckle at the outrage to nudity when no one bats an eyelid at the gore, mutilation and violence in so many games (which I like playing btw!).

The excellent rogue-lite 'Streets of Rogue' now actually has an ending

Hah! Just received an alert from Steam telling me it's 40% off and I thought it really is time I picked this up. Good timing ^_^

Quoting: fabertaweOff topic... which game is the record holder for biggest download? :huh:
Only 59.8 GB ? For me Doom has whooping 73.8 GB. Out of that, 47.9 being virtual textures.
It turns out it's 68.7 GB "on disk"! Things have changed slightly since my Commodore 64 days :D

Well I feel bad buying a Proton (rather say that than Windows! And I did use the GOL supporting link of course) only game but just had to get Doom as it was half price. Should be able to try it in a few days as it's a mere 59.5 GB download :dizzy:
