Word. The only game I bought into was Don't Starve. When I got it, I played a bunch and kind of got my fill before it even came out.
So, when it came out retail, I downloaded it again to find that it was a totally different game. New mechanics, environments, enemies. I wished all that stuff was there when I was super into it.
I'm just kind of at the point where I figure, why pay money to play a game that isn't finished? Also, I'm real sick of how many early-access (aka not complete) games there are on Steam, right now.

Yeah I'm playing it sparingly, I want to save it mostly for when it is finished. Just wanted to secure a copy for $10.

Fairly good replay value with the random environment generating though.

Replaying Dead Space 2. It's pretty cheesy but i'm still a pretty big fan of 2 and 3. The first one bored the shit out of me though.

I really liked Dead Space for its survival horror elements. The atmosphere was great. Super tense.
Never felt any desire to play past it, because the action wasn't really my draw.

+1 to loving Dead Space. Thought the first game was excellent. The second kinda lost me, but had some good spots. The multiplayer was awful. Never tried 3, as I no longer have any desire to play EA games. Fucking dicks.

Dead Space 3 is kind of fun. I only got it because of the Origin bundle.

Just note that it's not scary. Like, at all. They went full action game with it. Not that Dead space was ever really that scary to begin with.

Oh Christ. Accidentally clicked on Deus Ex: HR on my steam library instead of what I actually wanted, proceeded to play about 8 hours straight yesterday. Fuck, I remembered that I really liked it. It's so fun to Ghost.

I play FIFA Ultimate Team but EA absolutely ruined it. I can't even properly articulate how absolutely dreadful any FIFA14 online game is. Every game feels just exactly the same and devoid of any creativity. Basically anything one would love about the sport was thrown out the window for a formulated, scripted piece of shit.

Anyone played PES? Definitely need to make the switch to something non-EA (AKA any company that actually tries to make good games before just profit.)

Eh, boss fights usually consists of leaving mines around and throwing items from a distance which are conveniently placed round the room. :idk:
