hm, okay, fair enough)
also, this is for the context:

"in case of fire, steal, kill, fuck geese and wait for a return beep"
Never saw that trailer. I recognize all the characters out there but most of those scenes aren't in the game.
And, honestly, while almost all of the guys you meet in the game are shady characters, there is only one I always want to kill - despite sacrificing a bunch of civilians - f****** Conrad Marburg!

your next achievement will be leaving the group.
:ROFLMAO:
you got the achievement for completing the game before the achievement for completing the first level... well, you should have a logical story about it.
New game plus? :LOL:
Maybe it's probably possible to do that, yes, but there's almost certainly some medical term for it.
I agree...but we have seen it done before.
Insanity, but I can lay out a perfectly good reason why somebody would go through all the trouble.
I can give you a mixed reason...now imagine how much insanity people have went through to make all the original tools mentioned in this post...it honestly wouldn't surprise me if they already have a database of all this info somewhere (actually I can think of a few sites), and it could be automated and up to date but its alot more effort that I have no interest in putting into the task that could easily be implemented into the existing tools by simple command line arguments (IIRC the code for arch)
There are no limits to human stupidity, you can search here on neighboring topics, and you will find some sellers of snake oil, but you need at least a little faith in humanity
This just seemed vital to my next point.

I imagine people don't realize this fact, the card farming concept was not started to be what it is now, it was simply a regular gamer, pissed off that cards almost never dropped (I feel this)...and they stumbled across the playtime and achievements along the way... just decided "hey neat , I can 100% all those unfinished games I'll never play too".

They put it up on git (if that was even the original creator, I doubt it) or shared it on Steam and someone else was able to see how it worked, and recreated the concept to be what it is.

No matter how good your intention, no matter how hard you try, someone will always try to be a fucking idiot, if you can't waste the time to play the game, or even play the game at all...your wasting everyone else' time.

I don't mind collectors, I got no issue with cheating the dell corporate quests...hell, I might be the one to invent a fake twitch time changer because I fucking hate watching streams with a passion...and I think forcing people to waste hours on a screen is probably the lowest form of advertisement in the known world.

All gifting /point based streamers should die, twice, and then be brought back to life and forced to watch their own boring ass stream for the rest of eternity until the end of the universe outside the gates of oblivion (sorry, venom)

Point being, and i say this fully in truth...no personal attachment to the subject.

Dante should have been denied, as should any user who can't run the game...now the fucked up part is they should pull their head out of their asses, not make fun of someone for not being rich....and STILL allow them to enter for giveaways for games they CAN run, granted they didn't accept ones they couldn't and try to slide it past them.

If you want people to be worthy of your faith, you need to have a little yourself and not be a total jerk.clown.jpg

The Next Door - Gift from @jaromir-krzyszczak :) - I ain't on the kinda drugs it takes to understand what the fuck this game is lol. First level you literally enter a person's asshole and then float around as sperm... so talk about first impressions! It's like a puzzle walking simulator that I think is supposed to have some deep philosophical undertone, but it falls short. The music for each level is just a 15 second tune that repeats over and over, turning your brain into mush, making it harder to solve the already hard puzzles. The set pieces and levels are interesting and artistic, but that's it - I felt this was made more to be interactive art where the onus is on you to understand it rather than a game that is cohesive in any way. The end of the game puts you in a room with the Steam Greenlight reviews on the walls, and I'll leave you with two that really resonated with me:
"Looks and feels more pseudo- than actually psychologically rich in my opinion."
"Is there an objective to the game?"
Best review I ever read in my life in the first paragraph ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ 🤣🤣🤣

+1566h on Origin when it was not on Steam yet...

Still raging a lot on it :D
I think I've done this on one game,

Star Ocean: The Last Hope

One of the HARDEST games ever to reach 100% completion and aside from the faize replacement battle trophies...most were actually real ones (aside from a few button mashing)...one of my all time favorite games ever, great story, incredible post-game (if you consider a suicide boss at the end of a 20 level procedurally generated dungeon incredible--beware the ethereal scream :LOL:)

I spent maybe 100-200hrs with a turbo controller helping out for button mashing, but I put in somewhere between 1500-2000 hrs, longest game I ever played in my life.

My most played would probably be Need For Speed Most Wanted, but I have no numbers for it cuz I started playing it in my childhood in a cracked version and the same crack is still installed in my old computer
Needless to say, I have lost my save files 2-3 times already during those years

Breaking the law and crashing cars is fun as hell :LOL:
My pc at the time couldn't run it, so I only saw my friend play it. I wasn't impressed.. To this day, I'm in no hurry to try it out myself but I will when I touch the remastered trilogy :p

What I'm wondering is what you did for 45h on bioshock infinite.. Unless you left it open or replayed it?

Of all the NFS, Most Wanted is a game that I dislike xD I much prefer the older ones or (my favorite) hot pursuit or the run etc..

No opinion on the latest ones.. I haven't tried them
I knew I liked you luck :ROFLMAO:

Hot pursuit was my racing addiction in a single game, before that i hated them...most wanted is by far my least favorite one of them all.

hello darkness my frends XD
What page are you waiting for now? 2500? :LOL:
First off, that GIF spoiler is directed at me, since I gave it to her...so...um 🖕

Second off, she has (unlike most here) won almost every fueda game by herself being here so long, not by being gifted...and is one of the people who should have the rare games in her list.

As for the length, now your just acting like kid :ROFLMAO:

pretty sure he's talking about dark mode IG Lair is ugly and not directed at you, eh..?
(at least thats what I assumed, since Im in light mode and his tabs and addy bar are in dark mode and his is ugly lol..?)
I barely noticed the dark mode...and its HIS dark mode, not mine. So why post peoples sig's in a border screenshot?

Besides, either way its not ME. Do i look like a pussy cat? :ROFLMAO:

EDIT:

If you can't bother to explain when you snap a screenshot with peoples info in it...you should assume people are going to assume :LOL:

Hey Lair! I have some time to write down my thoughts on the games I completed in February while I watch the F1 season kick off this morning! So, lights out and away we go:

Adios - Was free through Epic Games - You play through an ex-mob member's final day. The writing was something I really liked about this game. The voice acting was on point and the conversation felt natural. The graphics were subpar (it has hilariously bad mouth talking animation) and there really wasn't much gameplay. I don't know how to describe it, but it's like a fenced in walking simulator. As you guide your friend/killer around your farm, you two reflect on life and what lead you to this point. It's an emotional story but left me feeling like it was too short to really get invested in any of the characters.

Hook - Free through LegacyGames - A puzzle game in which you free intersecting lines. It was never really hard to complete a level as you simply work your way back along a line step by step until you trace a path that works or move on to another line and repeat. Making it even easier is the fact that there is no move limit, and each level also allows you three wrong moves. The 50 levels this game contains go by quickly because of this. It's fun, and a neat concept, but lacking the "it" factor that the really good puzzle games have.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun - Was free through Epic Games - A tactical stealth game set in old Japan where you control a team of characters tasked by the Shogun to take down a mysterious Kage-sama who is trying to bring about war in a Japan that has found peace. This was my first tactical game, and I loved the concept and ability to traverse the environments, use character abilities, and manipulate NPCs to forge my own path to the goals. The levels were meticulously crafted to give you an incredible amount of freedom while also guiding you to the end result. Your team each has unique abilities that are so much fun to experiment with, and the story, while not super groundbreaking, is set up in a way to ensure your team composition varies each level, keeping things fresh. The game is very challenging to 100%, and though I did it, I really don't appreciate when games like this hide completion behind speed running badges for each level. It felt like a superfluous challenge tacked on to a game that in every other sense encourages you to be stealthy, careful, and take your time. The mis-clicks that happen were also very frustrating, such as when attempting a speed run only for the game not to register a command. Also, the character chatter is the same recycled five lines. I played the game in Japanese, which I do not understand, and my brain stopped registering the repetition. Regardless of the small annoyances, it's superbly well-made. I'm hooked and will for sure play the standalone Aiko's Choice DLC!

The Next Door - Gift from @jaromir-krzyszczak :) - I ain't on the kinda drugs it takes to understand what the fuck this game is lol.

Hi Buhroobee, once again thank you for your reviews!!! ❤️


I think the game to which I have dedicated more hours is the MMO Need for Speed World (EA closed it in 2015 🤬), there were more than 2493 hours (that counted Origin but before I used an external Launcher) there I met people and friends from Latin America and Spain with whom I still have contact 🥰.

Greetings.

You're really going to buy this pile of crap at that price just to level up on Indiegala giveaways? Spoiler alert: you don't win that much either at level 6 or 7.
I was 😅 I guess it's a good thing I couldn't!
I'll just add that $17 for these games is not a good deal considering they cost around 30 cents each in Russian key shops.

Also, you really don't want to be supporting these asset-flip publishers with your hard earned cash. These massive 98% "discounts" (off an exaggerated normal price) are just a bait to lure people in.
Thanks for your perspective on this! Looks like I dodged making a mistake.
No, if you haven't played the game on steam you can't review it there BUT you can review on places like gog (I don't remember for Epic) and then various sites (ex: Fanatical -> monthly draw of 100$ wallet, GmG_>pays a few cents per review, I don't remember the exact details)
On that note, there are easier ways if you JUST wanna lvl up. Except of ga keys, any dollar bundle will do. For example the latest let's go bundle has 1,5$. IF you bought this at day 1 and it goes on HH that's 4 more bundles with another 1,5$
DiG bundles, dollar bundles, heck mass buying a 0,03-0,2 key from DiG or any keyshop will do the trick.
I appreciate your tips! Super informative! I will check all those sites out.
The events of this expansion take place before the game's level 10 (I think you know what that means), so don't delay the completion for too long.
Will do!
While we're all on the topic of most played games, I was surprised to see I sunk 110 hours into Shadow Tactics! Took up most of my Feb gaming time.🤯
Best review I ever read in my life in the first paragraph ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ 🤣🤣🤣
I laughed my ass off at someone's review who joked it should've been titled 'The Back Door' :ROFLMAO:
Hi Buhroobee, once again thank you for your reviews!!! ❤️
Thanks Eldi :) I always like knowing you enjoy them
