Hey, neat. Dragon Priest masks count as Daedric Helmets for any perks that give a damn. Even the Light armour masks work with Matching Set.

And oh, hey, height influences movement speed and jump height, giving Altmer another reason to look down on other races.

Edit: But yay, Dual perks may affect unarmed after all! Not other One-handed perks, though. And special perks for sword and axe use base damage, so Daedric still has some tiny thing going over Glass.

-Steam Sales*

Oh Shi-

Sadly, anything I want is also something I put on my Christmas list, so I don't want a repeat of last year where I got a good sale, then found out my brother got it for me.
And Portal 2 was one of them...

Oh, Scy. Forgot if I asked (probably did), but in the end, how did you like Witcher 2? With the new computer, thinking I want to find something good that'll push it.

I found The Witcher 2 to be glorious. The combat took a little adjusting to initially but it flows really well; it's not as good as, say, Arkham Asylum or City's free-motion brawling system (you can "feel" the lack of rhythm) but it gets the job done. The story is good, the game is beautiful, and the characters move the narrative well. All-in-all, it's a great showing from them after how abysmal The Witcher was to many people.

And less misogyny. I suppose that helped too. By the way, if you have a 360 controller (or any other controller) to use, I highly, highly recommend playing it that way. It feels far more natural that way.

We~ll, I DO have a 360 controller capable of being used on the computer. Think the B button is a little stuck, though.

Oh yeah, this deserves mention too:


ALL OF THEM. ALL OF THE GAMES.

Also, did Valve really just make a game out of buying games? Fucking...

^ Wasn't it the same last year?

I think I won a hat or something. Or maybe a hat was thrown at me.

Playing the GBA ambassador games...well three of them at least

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror: is AMAZING INDEED but not having a buddy to play with makes me sadface :[ even moreso when I have to rely on the crappy AI kirby

Fire Emblem and the Sacred Stones: Never played a FE game before so was excited to try one. Honestly hooked, and I.cant.put.it.down. Griiiiinding yeahh XD At Ch. 13

Minish Cap:Also one that I have not played before, really good so far. Makes me realize the GBA had pretty good graphics o,o Just beat the first dungeon. (n.n)b

Punching people is very romantic, and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

I'll update every day with the deals. Also, as for the stuff from yesterday, Orcs Must Die is a glorious game for the price. Think Tower Defense except your tower builder is also a Warmage. Lay traps and then ... well, Orcs Must Die.

Remember, everything that is on sale today, barring those listed Daily Deals, will be that price the ENTIRE period. The Daily Deals are just an extra deal on top of their regular discounted sale price.

Guess now I can rank Oboro Muramasa as complete. Good game.

The translation, I will admit, is mostly summary and maybe wonky, but it gets the point across.
