What exactly happens when you share a Steam Key.

I take it by sharing you still have use of those?

A key is a magical rainbow wrapped around a game, riding a unicorn. Once the key is used the unicorn trips and strangles itself on the rainbow and both vanish in a puff of paradox. And someone gets a game.

This is the most replied to thread.

Games / Re: Proudest gaming achievement

« on: 17 May, 2015, 10:56:11 PM »

Not sure if I should be proud of this but it's an achievement. Here's the short version

I once played an open world post apocalyptic text MMO.
The corporation that I created took over the entire game world, mafia style. We stealthily built ourselves up while playing the other corporations off each other and one day we started attacking the games big corporations, hunting down and executing all of them in the streets and robbing their apartments and corporate headquarters.
Like a laser guided grief machine we wiped them out and continued to do so until they stopped playing completely.
By the end of our time there we had over $20 million in the corporate vault, every one of us was a millionaire, we'd stolen everything of value in the game and we put the fear of god into every single player and some admins too.
And then a few of us went all final solution in an informal lecture on the the philosophy of grief and incinerated and destroyed everything in our headquarters on live TV, it took over 12 hours, admin intervention and accounted for over 10% of the games database (hundreds of thousands of items), including rare things that no longer spawned in the game world, custom made things that players had bought from admins, prenerf super weapons and things that we had also stolen from admins.
There were many delicious tears.

I've been playing the Game of Thrones mod for Crusader Kings 2.
So far I've been mostly sending assassins to murder Aegon Targaryens wife every time he gets married, he's run out of family members to marry now.

Been playing Skyrim and still haven't fixed the authentification problem with Secret world.

Once you get to see my Skyrim videos...you'll notice that I didn't follow the well trod path to Riverwood[ and kept off of it while heading higher into the mountain behind where we exited the cave connected to that Keep where every single starting character almost gets executed before the very first Dragon appears.

Why should I....,

 I asked myself out loudly during one of the videos. Aside from clearing out two cave lairs, then helping a thief escape from some warrior he stole a enchanted mace from and I decided to help the other guy when he came by, thinking the first to be less worthy and incinerated him with continuous flames and then thought I would like to find the other guy and kill him as well for the magic weapon, but he was faster and left quickly while I had the Orc loot the corpse of the first guy. I also left another two bandit's naked, a trail of dead Snow-Foxes and Wolves,  and a flamed grilled Elk that died in some epic cinematic.

(I have this on video)

I then encountered a female Nord living in a log cabin by herself. Telling my avatar that she fled here after her entire family had been murdered by Imperials who she slayed in turn. The she offered to teach my Orc how to hunt with a bow by firing some practice arrows into three different targets she had built on one of the lower steps of the mountain side where he small house is situated. The three targets of slightly varying distance to make it that more interesting and it was about that time. I switched on the cross-hairs. Because I was only slaying a few giant-spiders in a cave by fluke before I had to switch to my flaming magic attack to whittle down the health of the queen spider in one of the cave-lairs, I had him clear out. Anyway, I did the target practice twice or almost twice as I failed to find the other cached of practice arrows she meant to drop at my Orc's[ feet ever before time had ran out. She only said Never Mind as I spent that allotted time picking up the other arrows I had already used on the intermediate ground between the targets and the wooden barrier he was supposed to stand behind.

Anyway, it was one of the few times she faceed my Orc to say something to him before I decided to leave her. I noticed how much she had striking resembalance to Lagertha from that Vikings series. 

Did they put her in on purpose? She certainly wasn't found pictured/listed as one of the Archery trainers in the official guide book. She is kind of hot though. I just don't like her acting and found her in game Doppelgänger more convincing. She let my Orc leave with the Hunting-Bow and I even had him drop his original regular bow after my frequent check of inventory further down the mountain side. She's found on one of the ridges right on top of the mountains after exiting this  cave that had these icy snow walls sculpted very smoothly by the wind blowing through the place.   

Then, my Orc suddenly found himself entering the town of Riverwood from the side that was up against the mountain slope after I had started him on a longer descent and he murdered one of his contacts...the female living in the longish looking houses right alongside with the river where there is a public Mill and Forge. This happened quite cinematically when I had my Orc absentmindedly raid her kitchen for some gold coins and some wine. Where she got up and started slashing at his back with a knife. I might have had him run out to preserve new found relationship at some later time, but he spun around while unclipping his enchanted Axe of Icy-Bone-Chill (Or something like that!) and buried it in her stomach, but starting from the top of her head.

I then decide to leave for the town/city of White-Run and finished the video after he cross the bridge to the other side and promptly retuned to murder every other inhabitant of the village including all the chickens, the large Mastiff and the old lady. I also had a go at the young girl as well, but she must be protected by the gods and will no doubt grow up to be my Orc's Nemesis.

Thinking about returning up the mountain to put a end to that Lagertha-Clone, but that's where I have finished up until now...hanging on that thought?

My chosen avatar is a Orc after all!!!!!

BTW, I have named him Perfect-Tooth

Apparently, it's the English translation of what ever Latinname had been made up for some sort of pig or boar ancestor in times long past. It's always been my assumption that there is some sort strong connection them and the beastial Orc race. Remembering now that I think the Orcs were made from the drops of blood from a evil god who fallen after duelling with their mortal enemy, some heavenly deity. 

He also found himself inside a ruined fort from some underground cavern after finding the entrance in a lake. That is below the ridge it was built on. I cleared it out all the bandits one by one and after dying twice or thrice. Reminds me of the Time-Lake from Slaine-Time-Killer and it's kind of dumb how these games lead you to believe how one character can survive and even conquer such uneven odds.
 
To finish this un-intentionally longer than I thought it would be game commentary.....

If you like Half-Life and own the sequel on Steam, then you might like to try playing Lambda Wars Beta (Which sound like one of the American University House names inspired by {b]Greek[/b] letters or words!) and involves a single-player-campaign or random skirmish battles between the human Rebels and the alien like Combine and played both sides a few times remarking how similar the lightening arcing between the Combine's dark-energy collecting towers are to the standing stones of Carnac from Slaine - Warriors Dawn. This looked brilliant to me and had me thinking if the Combine were not really Cythrons.  This comparison opens gateway in time between this setting and Pre-Dilluvian-Tir-Nan-Og......think of the possibilities there....Imagining the dead rising from the resultant Sour-Land to form their own deadly faction against the other two.

Too bad. this game effect did not occur on my second and more successful play through of the Combine and there are no Head-Crab-Zombies either.

There's no point playing skyrim on PC if you haven't installed at least 57 mods, including tourettes mudcrab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT0dSFt48Sg

God damnit. I already explained this shit.

find the file called SkyrimPrefs.ini, there's 2 of them, one in documents/mygames and another in skyrim/skyrim.
open those in notepad, not the game because that would be incredibly stupid.
find the line that says
bGamepadEnable=1
and change that to
bGamepadEnable=0

If that doesn't work then disable steam overlay
If that doesn't work open the game then alt tab to minimise the game then maximise the game

why would you not even search google for this?

You could get a game console. Not being funny, I know there are a great many pros and cons of PC gaming over console gaming (I do both) but given all the problems and complications you have with PC games it would probably be a good move.

Then you could just switch it on and play games.

Editing a games config file is hardly a problem or a complication. That's like one of the first things practically every PC gamer does, "what settings can I bugger with, where's the config junk and where are the mods".

Notepad?

You mean the apt where you just write stuff or one of those tablets?

I really don't see the possibility of opening any games on that and don't have my own tablet.

PC gaming is not for you. Seriously.

Concerning Skyrim on Steam. I'm playing the legendary-Edition.

How do you get the keyboard to work with this game. There isn't any apparent way to get this done.

There is no option for this in the title menu and when I google this I could find any of the file I was meant to delete or alter to get this done either.

Has anybody had this problem as well with the same game?

open SkyrimPrefs in Notepad and make sure that bGamepadEnable is set to 0 not 1

Just finished Hotline Miami 2!

This sucked me right in and consumed my time in the same way the first game did. The whole style of HM is just so hypnotic and compulsive and the soundtrack oh god the soundtrack (so glad I got the triple vinyl edition of this, I've been listening to the music a ton). That style is still here in spades and as great as ever. If I have a gripe with it it was in the presentation of the story, the first game was really obtuse and nightmarish and all the bits that didn't entirely make sense worked as a kind of dream logic. With this one it really feels like they might be trying to tell a more coherent story, but I can't say I could follow it at all really. Made me think that perhaps the first game's alluring obtuseness was a happy accident.

There were points where it was infuriatingly difficult (the game crashed twice on my Vita, both times on the final floor of a particularly tough level, did not help my blood pressure) but it feels so good to beat a floor that you forgive it immediately when you do. As such, it's a game I rate really highly but am almost relieved to have finished so I can get it out of my life. I'll be seeing it when I close my eyes for a while though.

I have barely started playing the first one. The controls for running and hitting or shooting at the same time have me confused.

Still sampling the survivalist games.....


Finally got Dark Souls - Prepare to Die to work and have just flipped back to the desktop here to find out what key-binding corresponds to pressing A  loot the corpse just thrown into the dungeon cell with my brand new character.

A large deprived girl with facial countenance of a wise dragon witch with purple hair tied into pig tails called Sheila-Na-Gig (Class old Irish name for a girl!)

I know the key is meant for a X-box controller, but I think I can rebind it.

You're playing Dark Souls with the keyboard?
