I liked it quite a bit - but yeah, not as good as Dark Souls. A person could do a lot worse than Lords of the Fallen.
Can you pause in Lords of the Fallen?

I believe you can pull up the menu to pause, but I’m not 100% sure since it has been years.
Fanatical Star Deal today is SEGA Mega-Drive and Genesis Classics Bundle for $11.79 (80%). Dozens of SEGA classics you can play again on Steam. NOTE : Everything comes as a single Steam key.
IndieGala has an interesting Monday Motivation Bundle. $2.99 for the first 24 hours nets you 11 Indie Steam games plus 10 Gala Gold. Some curious titles in this bundle, including:
- Mercury Fallen - an EA futuristic survival/building/management game, seems like Space Gnomoria?
- Dungeons of Hell - a procedural roguelike
- Expect the Unexpected - turn-based strategic roguelike? Described in reviews as “FTL with swords”
At $1 each, it might be worth checking out this bundle.
I had to do a double take on this title, it looked at first like … well never mind.
If you’re in your profile page for a bundle and you’ve clicked the buttons to “reveal the keys” and you want to quickly activate them on steam, then paste this script in the console part of the dev tools for the browser (open with f12) in order to create quick links to register keys on Steam:
$("input.keys").each(function() { $(this).before('<a href="https://store.steampowered.com/account/registerkey?key='+$(this).val()+'">Register Key</a>'); })
Discourse won’t let me make the bookmarklet here since it’s dirty javascript… :/
Or drag this link to your bookmarks bar and run it on that page Add Register Links
But you can paste the code above here and it’ll make a bookmarklet for you: https://mrcoles.com/bookmarklet/
Wrote it to make my life easier, figured I’d share here.
If you folks don’t have that SEGA bundle, it’s totally worth it. A fantastic selection of the best from that system. Streets of Rage series is worth the price of entry alone.
We have a Problems down under Down Under thread for that. Though I suppose in this case it would be Problems down under Above and Beyond. Still mad that FOX cancelled that series…
On an unrelated note (or possibly not, who knows what Steam has been up to over the weekend?), the Weeklong Deals clickthrough on Steam’s webpage seems to be completely hosed today. I’m showing 518 deals, and when I click through on the web or on my phone, I see pages and pages of free demos, DLC and weird stuff, no actual deals.
Watch_Dogs (The first one) is free right now on Uplay. Cue jokes about it still being over priced…
I recommend watching Watch Dogs videos made by our @Paul_cze instead. I enjoyed watching those way more than I enjoyed playing the game.

Hey thanks, I’ll try this next time I get a bundle. Hate putting in each one manually
Over/under on the first post saying it’s not worth it to have to install yet another game platform on their PC? Wagering starts … now.

Yea but screw uPlay; in the span of a day my account for The Division was compromised, warned with an email notification, and banned with an email notification. I still have no idea if they unbanned it because support hands it off to some team who doesn’t respond, and fuck downloading the whole thing again with no idea if I can even play.
(does this count?)
It does! However because you didn’t place a bet you don’t actually win anything. I’m sorry, but I hope you’ll play again soon!
Ah, ubisoft never changes!
Non working site.
Non working links.
Non working logins (uh).
Non working password resets (of course).
I’ll stop here before I get to

Claimed Watch Dogs on Uplay, which then goes to a page says that the game hasn’t been released yet, and gives me an option to preload it. WTF?
Guess I’ll, uh, preload Watch Dogs. Maybe it’ll run ok.
[edit] Nope, no option to run it. A quick Google search shows the giveaway period from Nov 7-13. Guess I’m somehow early.
Well played, Ubisoft.
