Reply to Valve Unveils the First-Gen Steam Machines in PC Gaming Sins Forums

[quote who="Hawawaa" reply="11" id="3432278"]I won't buy one because building your own is still way cheaper and more rewarding. I still want to hear more about steam controller, I might get one but not sure... [/quote] I think you're missing the point of the Steam Box. For us "PC Enthusiasts", we could say "oh go build a PC" since we would know what to buy and what's good and what's not as well as putting the thing together. However the Steam Box is not ai

Reply to It is that time of year again- ModDB top 100 in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Curious how the top games list works. You hover over the game names and you'll see that SoaSE has more votes than all of them except for Half Life 2. This ain't rating of 1-10 since we only have 85 of those with us listed with 104. Is it total votes for mods within that game?

[quote who="XATHOS" reply="1575" id="3416820"] Quoting UnleashedElf, reply 1573 Still, it's pretty good that Ironclad/Stardock are updating still. At least it means that there's ample development going on. Eh.. far moreso Stardock than IC. IC has been too busy making their upcoming failed endeavor (it will in a MOBA market flooded with LOL and DOTA) Sins of a Dark Age. Rebellion has been primarily a Stardock Entertainment game then, and will be

Reply to Investigating GalCiv 3 - What are your concerns with Steam? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="satoru1" reply="60" id="3413532"] @korbano You have made it very clear all you want is to PIRATE THE GAME. That's it. You already made it crystal clear that you think piracy is ok because "what happens in my home is no one's business". Don't even try to come here and complain about Steam with that level of intellectual dishonesty. The 'opinion' of a pirate like you deserves no quarter and has no place in a legitimate discussion about

Reply to Please make a non-Steam version! in Galactic Civilizations III Sins Forums

[quote who="NitroX infinity" reply="202" id="3413398"] Renaissance? You assume it was at a low-point before Steam? I'm sceptic about that because I've heard the "PC gaming is dead" routine since the first Playstation came out. And I have not seen a single year that didn't have some good games appear. True, there may be an influx of developers but most of them seem to be the casual-gaming kind and usually don't last that long. We've even had some

Reply to AMD R9-290X Revealed in PC Gaming Sins Forums

See this is what competition does for the industry. It is required or else we have Nvidia running around with absurd pricing on GPUs. I am still going to buy an AMD card just to help it against Nvidia if anything else.

Reply to First screenshot maybe? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="charon2112" reply="4" id="3406240"] All the more reason that I think Jon Shafer designed this game. He loves hexes.[/quote] Though I feel like Brad has been convinced of the benefits of hexes. [quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3404685"] I'm not sure if I'm understanding what you mean. In GalCiv II you had square tiles. Now they're hex. We went with hexes for a number of reasons including the beefing up of cultura

[quote who="charon2112" reply="165" id="3409696"]You're not supposed to (technically) toss your son a copy of a game. That's breaking copyright law. Don't hate on steam because you can't give away copies of your games to other people [/quote] That's actually false. No where in US copyright law does it state that I am not allowed to hand my copy of a game to a family member or friend as long as it doesn't involve creating a duplicate of

[quote who="Morghul" reply="139" id="3408651"] Check numbers on steam, you are alone [/quote] Hardly, I reluctantly use Steam since there is a lack of any alternative but Steam at the moment. You can buy on GoG or Amazon but the majority of times nowadays that'll just bring you a Steam code. Steam has essentially monopolized the market as it is. You have to understand that when it comes to Stardock here, this place tends to be Anti-Steam. We could go arguing ove

Reply to Sins on Ubuntu in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I think the better question would be if SoaSE 2 is out by the time something like Linux/SteamBox OS becomes a standard gaming OS rather than retooling Rebellion for it.

Reply to 1v1 Medium Random Map, TEC Rebel OP? in Strategy Sins Forums

TEC Rebels if you give them room to do this hyper-expansion with TAR, I can see it becoming pretty ridiculous coupled with TEC early rush advantages you can turn the Advent inside out before they can get the ball rolling. I wouldn't call it OP though.
