I bought wallpaper engine and thought it was cool then immediately found there’s no good wallpapers to download. If there are they’re in Chinese. Thinking about buying hotline Miami but I’ve already played it. Idk anymore bros… I don’t like staking money to see if I’d like a game. I just start looking for reasons to refund it
>>
The only games I have on steam are dayZ, squad and a bunch of f2p shit like stalcraftX and others that are steam only multiplayer like gmod. Its less than 20 games.

Why pay for steam gaymes

Hollow knight is boring and tedious. The run backs and bloostain mechanic (mostly the bloodstain actually) ruin the game.

You can refund anything you don’t like buyers remorse doesn’t exist and no playing a game for 1,000 and then them changing something you like is not buyer remorse

there are but there definitely are a LOT of chinese and russians shitting up the thing, you have to
a, untick anime because most papers on the site are anime, then
b, block the chinese/ruzzian retards who dont tag their papers as anime or spam low quality AI shit
you can also make your own with the included tool, its pretty cool
they also curate a list of "approved" wallpapers that have some minimum semblance of quality (with the little green trophy on the sidebar)

i used to buy a lot of games and wait months before playing them, so i'd be outside of the refund policy.
Doesn't really happen anymore though as im more selective about what i buy now. The only thing that gets me now is when a game is updated retroactively to remove content

Eschatos has great music but also has stuttering and might just not be my thing
Crimzon Clover is awesome
Darius Gaiden is awesome
G-Darius I'm not super sold on it seems less action-packed than Gaiden which may be because it was an early 3D game
Devil Blade has cool aesthetics and the gameplay seems alright
Deathsmiles is awesome
Mushi seems ok but a little samey compared to other CAVE shit without much of a central conceit other than dodging bullets
DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu is awesome, ESPECIALLY the Ketsui arrange mode

You dont need the DLC to enjoy the game, it's just cosmetic skin stuff as far as I know.

Contrast is a wonderful but short puzzle platformer. very charming aesthetics and creative puzzles.

Corn Kidz 64 is a pretty neat platformer, but pretty difficult.
>>
>>722291112
ok, you found me out
>>
>>722307049
>>722307049
Two fold for me:
I find the level design to be a lot more "lol fuck you" masquerading as scares.
>example from today: You enter a kitchen, the freezer is locked, you walk down the end of the kitchen with your back to the freezer, freezer opens and 10 fast enemies comes out and rape you.
If you know they are there it's trivial to firebomb them, but good luck otherwise.

And second, ammo is a lot more scarce, meaning you have to use the throwing axe WAY more to have any chance of keeping ammo for dangerous enemies.
I have no problem using the axe, it just slows the game waaaay down, and rather than feeling like a slightly slower Blood like chapter 1, Chapter 2 feels a lot more methodical, yet it seems like the enemy counts are a lot higher (I could be wrong, just feels that way).
Makes levels start to drag on...

It isn't an awful game, just didn't grab me like chapter 1, which I loved.

you can download straight up files from there, though the client warns you of this and goes HEY RETARD YOU ARE DOWNLOADING A WALLPAPER WHOSE FILES CONTAIN A ZIP FILE, DONT OPEN IF YOU DONT TRUST IT
chinese and russian users use it to pirate and distribute h-games and porn
its intended use is for more involved wallpapers with web hookups and advanced features but no one uses it and you can ignore them completely by unticking the Application/Web in search, not that there are very many

Both Remnants. One was like a mobile gacha game without any gacha with linear EVERYTHING, and 2 is so badly optimized and immedialty everything is gigantic, locations, story gets bloated the instant you enter the hub - i've finished 1 to see the 2 for myself, but I can't enjoy fluctuating slopkino for 40 hours just to get to the end content. I've enjoyed more from Once Human, of all things.

Got the signal state
Plot is about "after civilization crashes my commie utopia will rise to take its place" with the bad guy being named Elon with one letter added to the name
As a puzzle game I can kind of ignore the plot and just play the puzzles which were...
Fine I guess?
But the game ended just as the puzzles were starting to get interesting.
Felt like it should have been at least twice its length.
Was only like $8, but even that cheap it didn't quite reach $1/hour and that's with getting all the achievements.

Trvke. Soulslop was never good.

>>722318218
Never good is a bit much. I'd say extremely overrated. Especially the 'story-telling' aspect specifically, not the actual story. Souls gets hyped up too much by people who think that just beating the game let's them mouth off as if they were like the top 10 players of the game.

>>722318063
The SP campaign was alright. But indeed the gameplay in the co-op exclusive mode is far superior and makes the SP campaign feel quite bland to play in comparison.

I bought the newer Hitman games. I remember really liking Blood Money as a kid, and I've seen a lot of gameplay footage of these new ones, and it looked fun. But something just feels off.

NMS really is that kind of game, that's wide as an ocean but deep as a puddle
first planet is fun, you need to survive, lots of mechanic to understand, there's real immediate danger all the time
than you understand the systems
and then its just filler crap, and just more of the same but without any immediate danger anymore, just eternal boredom

Never played the original and I thought it'd be similar to fft/ffta so I bought it, god what a piece of boring shit. You just collect the cards around the field, magic is useless, there's no skills or any cool way to customize characters, level cap is boring, and you just heal and do normal attacks until you win everything.
>>
>>722320090
Then why's NMS so popular?
>>
>>722320138
>You just collect the cards around the field
You have to weigh sacrificing good positioning against rushing for cards, especially if it's some card you really don't want the enemy to take.
>magic is useless, there's no skills
Why would you just go on the Internet and lie?

It is rather slow to get going though, I'll give you that.

Games i bought and regretted are:
Squad (im here to play a game not get a degree for indentifying enemies by their uniforms/vehicles also all servers seeem gay af)
HLL (kinda same shit)
Red Dead 2 (Sp was ok i guess but in long term it was not worth it)
Gta 5 (same shit)
Arma 3 (despite having 500h in it now that i think about it it was not really worth it like yea it can be fun but still)
DayZ (do i really have to say it ? Gunplay is fucking ass and loot ammount is trash)
Baldurs Gate 1&2 (it wasnt for me 3 is more like my style)
Divinity Original Sin 2 (worse than BG3 it just felt so weird i never finished it)
Hitman 3 (game was fun but replay value sucks)
Rainbow Six 6 (it just sucks)
And probably many more.....

Because people, human beings, are mostly retarded as fuck. More than 90% of the population has below 115 IQ, likely everybody in this thread is a fucking idiot and that's just a statistical fact. Popularity doesn't mean anything except a bunch of retards are interested in something, it's just how shit works unfortunately.

>>722287024
I never have buyers remorse cuz I pirate everything first.
If I sink 100h into it and its a 10/10 game, I'll pick it up on a sale if I can get it for under $15.

There are, just the issue with WPE is that 90% of the userbase are Chinese and Koreans using it to share porn because its the easiest way to get around their anti-porn firewalls, cuz porn is illegal in most of Asia.

It takes a bit of fucking around but you can get some cool interactive wallpapers on WPE, it just means sifting through 9,900 really shitty goonpapes to get to the 100 good ones.

I'm not going to play a game for 15+ hours before it "gets good" anon, I might rather play a game that's fun from the get go. And there are barely any skills at the beginning, you just get heal, exorcism, basic attacks, basic elemental damage (and the elements are kind of irrelevant) and a few spells like sleep and whatnot which have terrible accuracy.

The only one who has some variety is the black mage, who barely moves and jumps, and a good set of the maps have high elevation which means your black mage either doesnt reach anything or gets focused if it goes even a bit forward, so the real strategy is to just accumulate 2 phys cards on someone and oneshot the whole enemy team, which is very boring.

>You have to weigh sacrificing good positioning against rushing for cards
Who's lying now? There's nothing to weight, having bad positioning on one character for 3 turns is irrelevant when the payout is picking 3 phys cards and insta winning every combat

Federal law states I own everything I buy outright though, and if I lose access to it I'm legally allowed to pirate it, or the distributor is required to give me a new copy.

By that point, why? You've likely squeezed out everything you could out of the game already.

You always only ever bought a license even with physical games.
Do you think buying DK Bananza the cartridge game makes you the legitimate owner of DK Bananza? Nah, you only own one specific license and that license can only be used through the cartridge you bought the game with. Which means you are not entitled to additional cartridges once that one gets lost/breaks - you are not entitled to play the game on your PC or any other way besides your Switch 2 console. And Nintendo has the right to stop your account from using that game for whatever bullshit reason they consider valid.
Same applies to any other physical media be it Sony, XBOX or PC.
Some places like GOG allow you to use backups for their licenses but even there you do not actually own the games - your games are still tied to GOG specifically.
I cannot buy a game on GOG and later tell the devs to provide an extra copy for me elsewhere.
>>
>>722320090
I feel like you can say the same about most of open world games. Most times you just have to like dicking around doing nothing to enjoy these games.

Phoenotopia: Awakening. I bought it on discount then after some time I decided to play and realized combat sucks ass and I couldn't refund because 2 weeks passed. Because of this shit I pirate games first to see if the game is fun enough to buy it
Laser League. Game was fun but it was multiplayer game that died in a month, then got bought by some publisher that relaunched it as f2p game and it died again.

Except you can just go offline and use your cartridge as much as you want, anywhere you want, whereas a digital license always requires online confirmation and can be revoked at any moment.
>>
>>722320710
You are allowed to make personal use copies of physical media in civilised countries. That has always been a thing.
>>
>>722321249
In case of Steam you can also use offline mode most of the time. Most Steam games do not even use Steams own DRM - you can just launch them from the folder directly. In that way Steam is basically equivalent to GOG except you have to have the game installed and can only backup that install - not installers.
>>
>>722321249
And then you're pirating, because you don't have a license to play it
>>
>>722321338
Which is easier said than done.
>oh you can make copies of physical games.
Yeah, just find a way to duplicate a cartridge somehow. With discs it is easier but even there you need a Bluray-drive plus specific software.
>>
>>722321392
My cartridge is my license. There is no mechanism to revoke it in the first place, doubly so for older consoles that don't have online capabilities and online accounts.
>>722321390
>In case of Steam you can also use offline mode most of the time.
You have to go online every once in a while, once a month I think?
>Most Steam games do not even use Steams own DRM
A lot of them do. A majority even, I think.
>>
Should I get Doom Eternal with or without the DLC?
>>
>>722321434
If it's on a weird proprietary format than it's going to be hard without tools yeah.
>With discs it is easier but even there you need a Bluray-drive plus specific software.
I mean presumably you have a drive, but fair the console can't write and you probably don't have a blue-ray RW drive by default in your PC so you need specific hardware you wont' use for anything else most likely. Also console makers will make it difficult for you to play burned discs so it's mostly a thing for older hardware that you can get modded. Dunno how viable it is for current gen stuff.
Anyway the point is that while there may be practical issues with it, your licence is not actually limited to the one data carrier you got delivered.

This game is not good and I need you all to stop pretending that it is.
All of the “emergent” gameplay just amounts to someone knocking you out and putting you in a cage for a bit. Every play through ends the same. You build a base and fend off raiders for eternity.

It just sucks.
>>
>>722321898
>Anyway the point is that while there may be practical issues with it, your licence is not actually limited to the one data carrier you got delivered.
Not by law - but practically it basically is.
Cause no one will consider it a worthwhile effort to make backups with how much stuff you need to have ready/know in order to do it.
The only people who actually make backups of their games are tech-cracks who do it for the fun of the game or because they are extremely supportive of the cause.
Your average joe is never gonna make backups even if he plays 100 games a year

As a casualshitter, I really enjoyed Alltynex Second. It's part of a trilogy, and I'm sure the shmup enthusiasts would point towards the other two games, but I think they're geared towards those with a bit more experience under the belt. It's also on sale for like 4 bucks and you can probably get enough of a feeling in 2 hours to see if it is worth your time.
