That would be great, thanks!

Honestly it's not the best one of done by far... it's really hard to get excited about a Match 3 game and I just pretty much do it daily... for the dailies. But as I've said, I like free stuff, so why not try?

Well, I'm trying to do this video thing seriously, and I couldn't photoshop to save my life. (Well, that's not true, I seem to be able to do thumbnails okay, so they might let me live, for a little while anyway.)

Basically all I need is an end card that tells people to subscribe to the channel and various other social media or whatever I have, and a blank spot where I can put a previous video.

I can't pay anything, but if you have a channel or something you want promoted, I could stick it in the description as channel art, or something.

I'd ask Cobalt, who did my banners for me, but I think she's still mad at me for reminding her about Jedward.

Thanks! I like free stuff.

So I play a game called Marvel Puzzle Quest. It's a match 3 game. Anyway, they have a contest now to win 1000 Hero Points (used to buy new character cover slots, you either get them really slowly through playing the game, or can purchase them for RL money.)

So anyway the contest is simple: Post a video of you playing, hit 1000 views before the end of May, win points.

Please watch the video. You don't have to watch the whole thing, heck you can even hit dislike if you want, so long as it registers a view.

@Thenomain : Here is a link to where to get the new patch, and instructions on how to do it. Mirrors and mods and all sorts of fun stuff.

I should warn you though it's a bit...broken. Poor Fat Larry.

To be fair, I was using the other patch but it wasn't updated, so I don't know how much that may have affected my current games. Also, I seem to kill 3 people upon loading in the first time. Again it might be where I loaded in or where I am in the game, I don't know. But at least the game works again. This one is so pretty though!

Steam and GoG are both having an Activision sale. While Steam focuses mainly on CoD, GoG seems to have the everything, including Arcanum, Phantasmagoria 1 & 2 and Vampire the Masquerade Redemption. Both are selling King's Quest and Space Quest games. but GoG breaks them up into two packs and it's cheaper to buy the whole thing on Steam.

Steam also has Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines on sale, which means the patch broke it. However a NEW patch has already been uploaded.

Steam, GoG and Steam still have all things Star Wars on Sale.
Humble is having a Ubisoft sale
Greenmangaming doesn't have any sort of special sale going on, but it has it's normal deals.

And again, not games, but today is free comicbook day and Drivethrough RPG has a fuckton of free comics right now.

Yeah that's the point. They choose what background the post has, when they make a post. It's very obvious,

Cross thread posting, Oh Noes!

Don't forget Free Comicbook Day is TOMORROW!

I might as well stick this here, rather than just make myself a shameless plug thread:

I've been accepted into the GreenManGaming Affiliate program. Basically, I have a code to give out to people which will work on most of the games, even knew ones like the New Mortal Kombat and GTA V. And as an affiliate I get a small percentage when people buy games through my link. I also get some neat things if I get certain numbers of subscribers / followers.

Click this link to get to the page and then click this link when you're ready to get a voucher to apply to your purchase. (I have a neat button, but I have no idea how to add images. Enjoy!

Twitch for livestreams.
Youtube for daily videos.
Twitter for updates on when a video goes up, or when I go live on the Livestream.

Also it's not a game, but it is free:

Don't forget Free Comicbook Day is TODAY!

One of the forums I use does that: it colours the mod post background so it stands out. Sort of yellow instead of white. There really isn't a doubt how they are posting as when that happens.

Star Wars games are on Sale On Steam, Humble, and GoG. Pick a game and a seller, really.

2K games are on sale on GreenmanGaming.

Ultima VIII is free on Origins right now.

This probably won't make sense to non-Canadians but:

Nothing makes you feel older than your childhood teachers passing on.

Actually "creators" get 25% of the profits from the mods. Some of the mods posted have been from people who have taken them off of Nexus and sold them, as their own, or made their own mod but used another one. And at least has been pulled down for stealing. Because there is completely a way to tell who is who because there is a large modding community, and coders usually stick in somewhere that they did a thing.

Other than that it's really buyer beware. There is no more guarantee that they will work on Nexus when they are free than they will on Steam. Sure people are going to put their mods up for unreasonably high prices because they feel 25% isn't fair... and when people don't buy them the prices will come down.

The Major points for why this is a BAD THING, so far as I can see are as follows:

• It's causing people who don't want to make money from their mods removing them for free as well so people don't take them and use them.
• Because some of the modders are game devs and can't actually sell anything because of non compete contracts.
• One of the biggest mods that everyone else uses in their mods hasn't been updated in 2 years, and has removed permission from people to use it and sell it in their own mods. When it was free he used to take donations, but now that it get be put up for a price other people can't use it!
• But with a donation system you got ALL the money, not 25%!
• Some modders don't like money and even refuse donations, so no mods should be sold.

Next will be the inevitable, people posting the mods on torrent sites or something to protest or something.

@Huzuruth Psychotic joggers wearing neon. That's all I'm saying.

You haven't PvPed yet, have you?

Pretty sure that was just on sale this weekend. I was eyeballing it, anyway.

Re: TSW: No not really any more.

I mean, I think Town of Salem has a bigger continuous population than TSW does.

• Issue 8 and Scenarios and the grind burnt a lot of people.
• Then they finally put out Tokyo with only the story missions to do and made the side missions in separate behind a paywall mini issues. And also made it only available to people who had completed the full story mission. And the mobs are faster and hit harder in Tokyo.
• Then they added Aegis
• Then they added the new player experience, making things easier for everybody, including in Transylvania so now the gap From Transylvania is even larger, cause groups who have been raiding New York Together for two years and could 7 man it struggle to do it with even 10 people down. And fuck ever getting the achievement.

The community is horrible. No one tests on Testlive any more, except for the 5 people who shout the loudest and alienate everyone else. Of course that's who the devs listen to in regards to difficulty, so they have to put in a novice difficulty in scenarios so that the majority of players could even do them, because players could kill UR-Draug in 6 seconds on nightmare mode. But even though only the 1% of the 1% of the population can do it, it's got to be changed.

The community on Live is even worse with a quote from one of the moderators being: "This is a wonderful community and only comments that reflect that will be allowed to be posted!" (But they aren't heavy-handed or anything.)

Oh! And that fall of Tokyo thing they have going on? Buy all the issues up to and including one that isn't even out yet (April 2015, for realz) and it's just a money grab now, really.

Pretty much now it's just events with bags that people can buy, and collect all the things by standing in a cuddle-pile and idling in the middle of Agartha. With emotes, and close and achievements only tied to buying a bag, and opening it with enough people around.

Having said all that, it IS a good story, and all the various versions are on sale on Steam right now. If you don't go for any collector's editions or side stories, you can probably get it for fairly cheap right now. But play it as a single player game, not an MMO.

(No, not bitter at all, why do you ask?)

Also, anyone playing town of Salem, I'm Moiren on there if you want to add me to your friends list.

The Humble Store is also having an RPG weekend, plus some other games on sale during the week.

Both GoG and Humble have Divinity on sale, but it's cheaper on GoG.

GoG has a looooot of games on sale including this deal for all the D&D games and a bunch of other packs that I'm not going to list because I'm lazy and not sure what people are in to. But there's like 20 different packs on sale right now.

GoG is having a sale over the weekend as well. 20 gamesi ncluding System Shock 2, I have no Mouth but I Must Scream, and Fahrenheit / Indigo Prophecy.
