Honestly, personally I think that's just annoying when some forums do it.

I'll try to give Metacouncil exclusivity to all my posts that might garner any attention in the future (if any) ;)

yeah, exactly ... that was my thinking as well ... it's basically "spammy newsletters" ... and PARTICULARLY annoying for people who turned the emails off

I have not read the article, just skimmed though it, but they mention half a million copies through Humble Monthly. That is 5 times their total sales!
Click to expand...
I don't know if all of those were for the Monthly because in the paragraph about the keys is no mention of the Monthly. Could be a combination of Monthly and for future bundles since I think Humble is also the publisher.

The breakdown in the sales part mentions refunds. They sold ~ 93.000 units on Steam and 7.800 units were refunded. I'm not sure if they would've sold over 100.000 units with it or the number has to be substracted from the 93.000.

But nice to see this transperancy.

price glitch (free to add) instead of "STEINS;GATE: Linear Bounded Phenogram is available only with purchase of STEINS;GATE ELITE". Could be revoked tho.

I did the Fanatical Mystery thing because I have zero impulse control, and mine wasn't too bad actually!.
  1. Coffin Dodgers - Lmao.
  2. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 - Noice (why does it literally only show one review on the Store page summary though?)
  3. Monster Slayers - Looks fairly decent.
  4. HIVESWAP Act 1 - Excellent, saved me $8 to try this myself.
  5. STAR WARS The Force Unleashed Ultimate Sith Edition - I'm almost certain this game doesn't hold up in 2019, but okay.
  6. Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered - Uh, had no idea this was on Steam, but awesome!
  7. Alien Spidy - Bundle fodder trash.
  8. Skullgirls - Owned from other bundles, but a nice game.
  9. Mainlining - Looks like a cute puzzle hacking game?
  10. Figment - Pretty looking puzzle game.
So all in all, only two games I'd call trashy and one repeat. Pretty solid, but I'm almost positive I lucked out lmao.

Interesting, I didn't know about that tweet.
It's a direct quote from my Steam review of the game though (and from the summary too, which is the most appropriate place to take a tiny quote from) and I really do love Phantom Brave, so that's A OK in my book!

That's exactly what you'd say if you were under NDA due to porting La Pucelle, Makai Kingdom and Soul Nomad to PC

I am so glad to be done with AC Odyssey. o_O Got all the base game achievements. Finished the story. So done. So happy to be done. Immediately uninstall lol. :whistle:

On the other hand, I'm super upset I missed the chance for Linear Bounded Phenogram. I don't wanna have to buy the crappy-art version of S;G Elite to get it.. >_< Maybe I'll just keep my Vita and PS3 copies. But they won't last forever so fuck me, I'll have to cave at some point.

It's really stupid that you can't buy the game seperately.

1. Buy Elite,
2. Add free one,
3. Refund elite.
4. optional step (get banned from refunds)
Click to expand...
Never refunded anything cuz I tend to avoid buying trash or building up my games catalog just because. :p

I think this is why I am able to get trading cards from games without waiting the 2 hours mark?

ok i am totally confused with this SG elite vs nonelite .... seen people both ranting and masterbatin about both versions

S;G Elite uses the artwork from the anime adaptation. Otherwise it's largely the same as the original. It might even be completely the same.

Edit: I guess it's animated and stuff. But that's not really an improvement tbh.

The artwork from the original is way better though. I mean, I guess that's a matter of opinion, but... o_O Personally never met anyone who would say the anime style is better...

hmm not sure ... i generally like animes (never watched SG though) , but I generally dislike everything VN (especially when it doesnt have additional nonreading sections to change things up )

Maybe i am just better off by watching the anime instead of trying to go to a genre dont like :) and then reading up sumaries about changes and different endings

S;G Elite is essentially just an art update sold at 60€ and one that is even seen as inferior by many people (including me).
Didn't understood the appeal of the thing when it was announced and still don't understand it now.

I mean, how else would they force you to buy subpar (Elite) product?

You might be right about that.
They could've at least included 8Bit Adventures too, but that one is switch exclusive for some reason.
