Re: Steam Sales

...Planetary Annihilation: Titans... Eugh. I died a little bit inside when I saw that on steam. I bought the first PA on sale once, figuring "Hey, it might not be much yet, but this could end up really cool!". To see them release what amounts to a patch as a separate game entirely makes m...

Re: Empyrion - Galactic Survival

Have you played Starbound yet? My biggest gripe with that game was how "disposable" the planets seemed to be; There was never any real reason to stick with even a main home planet, it was always more about exploration. That's the biggest thing keeping me from buying this one, I'm worried i...

Re: Terraria 1.3 Expert Mode Discussion (There be Spoilers!)

And I finally did destroy the Destroyer. My teammate used the aforementioned Stormbow + Holy Arrows combo, and I used the Meteor Staff (which clears out the probes like nobody's business). All told, we whomped him in about ten seconds, and are planning to use the same tactic for Skeletron Prime. Th...

Re: Terraria 1.3 Expert Mode Discussion (There be Spoilers!)

He was using pre-hard mode stuff. The expert mode played legitimate (not pulling in from other characters is a real but kicker!) Sorry in advance if you weren't responding directly to me. Destroyer is a hardmode boss, you can only summon him after defeating the wall of flesh and spawning the Hallow...

Re: Terraria 1.3 Expert Mode Discussion (There be Spoilers!)

Currently getting destroyed by the Destroyer. Every buff potion available, four heart statues, greater healing potions, full adamantine armor, ring of myths, 80 defense... Can't even get him to half health. I'm not sure I feel like this is even reasonably possible. Try to hunt down the Daedalus Sto...

Re: Terraria 1.3 (Hide your spoilers)

I had a burst of playing Terraria again with a couple friends a few weeks back, and pretty much 100%ed it, even throwing every complete armor set on mannequins in my house. It might be cool getting new toys, but Terraria devs have never been good about actually extending the game. I don't see myself...

Re: Steam Sales

Antichamber is down to 1.99. I wouldn't recommend it at full price simply because there's no replay value and it's rather short, but for 1.99, I'd absolutely recommend it. It's one of the most interesting games I've ever played.

Re: Monetized Mods

Gabe Newell did an AMA sort of thing on Reddit concerning this. He unfortunately doesn't really reveal anything new, and doesn't answer most of the important questions, but I figured some might be interested anyway.

Heh. Took a look at the 7DTD forum thread, and it appears you've gone full circle!

Re: Feedback Request: Build breakers

In most cases, I'd say no, but I trust you. You're not going to add something that is unavoidable, or based entirely in chance, it's going to be something we can prevent, something to keep in mind for all our future builds. Bring it on :)

Ok, now this is awesome. It's basically Line Rider, but you make the levels with a function, and includes a Time variable to morph the levels as you go. It's... Hard to describe, but definitely worth playing with for a bit :)

Feeling somewhat in shock.

That's pretty much where I'm at with it too, honestly. I figured it was just...

Re: Vanilla Minecraft News Discussion

I am not too familiar with how variable signal strength works in stock given I never embraced analog redstone, but can't you get the same effect by using a comparator to measure signal strength, *then* invert the signal? Yes: if you set a comparator to subtraction mode, feed the daylight sensor int...
