kinda short game...
doubt that it can be a backlog...

total days you must survive are 45 days...
with a correct planning and luck...
you can finish it within 6-8 hours...

marco, pavle and bruno are fixed starting character...
others are random...
*
It is designed like FTL where there is no fixed events happening each time. Sure there is an ending but the path you take each time is different that adds to replayibility.

If I am not wrong, starting characters are randomised and events are randomised too.

I like FTL after some time so I think this is definitely a game for me. And also, the developers are donating a portion of their profits to charity that helps children at war made it even more tempting.

Play on a tablet if you can as i find it more fun on tablets. Touch screens adds to the immersion while gameplay wise, it plays well in short burst.

once in a while, I will fire up FTL to have a run. But so far never managed to beat the game on Normal difficulty. I have a love hate relationship with this game.
*
I can finish Easy 90% with most ships but Normal is still too hard for me.

I cant imagine how those people win the game on Hard with no shield upgrade and no pause. Crazy.

Easy most of the time I can make it to the final sector. Usually lose to the 3rd form of the boss.

But normal is just insane. Only a few times I managed to make it to the final sector. But that's about it.
*
I beat the game with all the ships in the game on Easy. Normal, i think I only won the game 3 times with 3 different ships.

It is not an easy game as I just cant really turn it around at times if things started to go south.

That is true but usually, there are still ways to turn it around.

It is a fair game but just difficult.

will wait for D3 Reaper of Souls to go lower.. USD20 bucks still kinda a lot for a mini expansion.

RoS is worth buying even at full price. It is a damn good expansion pack. I got at least another 100 hours from it.

Great combat, great progression, and now, they added varied gameplay, ladders and even more interesting items.

Nope, Titanfall cannot wait. It's a Multiplayer only game and it's not new anymore. The community may last for a year or so more. But unlikely will last for long.

I think the players numbers would stablise around the current numbers now.

Even there are only a few k, you still managed to find games fairly quickly.

I kept reading about China government surveillance as they upload everything from your phone to their NSA-like servers in Beijing. US already have my data and I am not interested in giving my data involuntarily to another country. That really put me off from Xiao Mi. Huawei is banned from bidding for telco hardware projects in a lot of countries for the same reason

I am not that keen with China phone companies because of that. If not, I would have bought One Plus One.

can get at Digi Express Stores /Official Digi centers too for slightly a bit more with contract.

Fingers need to fast if wanna purchase from Huawei VMall. sweat.gif

Definitely no Huawei. That is the company that is China government's GLC that is linked to multiple surveillance suspects in telco tender in US and Europe.

They are getting better but in terms of ethics wise, they are still far behind.

aiya no need scare la.. China now is overpowering Malaysia d in every sector.. we are no big deal to them. Wanna spy also mega countries like US or EU.

I rather be spied by NSA than both NSA and China.

I am concern with my privacy and it is not just spying, they can do all these do your device. China is overpowering us, but that does not give them the right to access everything on your phone.

The recent Baidu SDK found in Sony Xperia Z3 which is the same as the one found in Xiao Mi where the China government can do these:

QUOTE
    Read status and identity of your device
    Make pictures and videos without your knowledge
    Get your exact location
    Read the contents of your USB memory
    Read or edit accounts
    Change security settings
    Completely manage your network access
    Couple with bluetooth devices
    Know what apps you are using
    Prevent your device from entering sleep mode
    Change audio settings
    Change system settings
If that is not a concern to you, then, I have nothing to say because this is literally an open door to all your data and even control your phone. Sony confirmed that they will patch out the Baidu SDK as they admit it is a spyware.

At the same time, after multiple surveillance accusation, even Xiao Mi is moving their data centre to India where they are not binded by some China local surveillance law that we have no idea what is it. Even some Android apps like ES File Explorer uses the same Baidu SDK that allows China government spying.

As they say, either you buy a product for high price or become their product for low price. And I do not want to be their products. China phones are significantly cheaper than Japanese, Koreans, American, and European phones. Why? What do they want from us?

NSA can probably do whatever the fish they want with my phone but why should I give it to another country too? What happens if China gave our beloved government the access to those stuff too? NSA might too but I am not doubling my chances. Or some hackers gain control to these "features" considering how good they are in stealing data recently?

There is one reason I like Apple, their privacy system is a lot better than Android and being a closed OS, it is a lot harder to do stuff like this. Except they are on the bed with NSA but definitely not with China. Other than that, Apple is pretty terrible these days.

Then, power to you.

People cant come in to your house and steal your PC, your TV or your car. Why should you allow a foreign government with unknown interest with your data get hands on your data? Or make money with your data without your consent on taking your data?

At least Snowden leaks with NSA, we knows to a certain extend what NSA can do but with the Baidu SDK spying, we barely know anything about their motive and usage of the data.

better get them one at the time. Deluxe is worth it for each title.

oh if you'd wanna romance Liara (the best female to romance with) , you must start off with her from ME1.

Trust me always choose Liara.. that voice and looks...  drool.gif . I've started off with ME2 so too bad for me as I've skipped ME1 (will play it once I'm done with ME3). In ME3 her voice can melt you.. and her body... modeled that of a real life model... so yeah just telling you what you might be missing *hint hint*

if romance doesn't matter much to you, then you can start off anywhere with anyone as you please. Storywise it's better to start at least from ME2 (best from ME1 la if you patient) as you'd get a better idea from there. in ME3 you're straight away thrown into the war with the Reapers so for first timers it can get a bit confusing and overwhelming.

Steam Christmas, autumn and winter sales coming d... just await awhile more and sure will get ME1 and 2 for cheap...  nod.gif ME3 best get now.. won't go anymore cheaper.

and final tip.. ALWAYS go full paragon or full renegade.. try not to go halfway. There's cheats for that if you lazy crack your brain/refer to guides on which conversation options to choose (i did that.. easier in situations where you'd need extreme levels of paragon/renegade to solve them - conflicts usually). ME3 conversations more straightforward.. top choices are all paragons, bottom choices all renegade. If lazy farm credits got cheats for that too... i did that too.. lazy to keep search for credits in ME2.. ME3 my advice don't use money cheats (weapon system upgrades now partly uses credits).. as you'll progress too far ahead till enemies seems less challenging.

Mass Effect trilogy has so many strengths across all 3 games. And all you recommend is the romance? Seriously?

What about the varied combat? The gameplay? The excellent characters, especially the not romance-able characters like Mordin, Zaaed or Wrex? The world that Bioware created that is filled with interesting races, places and plot? Martin Sheen's performance as Illusive man?

If I never played ME trilogy, I wont even consider the game as you made it as if it is a romance game where I might as well play some well written visual novels instead of Bioware's ham fisted romance. Bioware does romance pretty poorly as other games like Witcher blows their romance out of the water.

How old are you seriously?

Miranda's character is actually damn well written. And that inhumanly impossible butt.

Hated her initially as she seemed like an arrogant officer where Cerberus sent to keep and eye on you but once you talk to her more, she does open up and you'll see the more soft side of her where she is a caring sister. Thats when I really liked her a lot.

That sex scene towards the end is fukken stupid, my gawd. And how Bioware treat her as a throwaway in the third game.

I still think Mordin is the best character in the game, followed by Wrex and Garrus.
