Well, not with this gift card - it's a MasterCard, maybe that's why?
Until I get money next - then surely! Hopefully for Christmas..
twilit quiver
It could be the way you entered it? Cause gift card and mastercards are 2 different areas I think
at my job they are so I assume
hearty quartz
Sadly, no. I was quite disappointing - there's 50 dollars loaded onto the card.
I entered it a few different times, on different days - still no luck.
twilit quiver
No I meant the location page you entered it
hearty quartz
I did buy some people gifts with it from in-store purchases - but that's about it.
Worked fine then, for in-store, I mean.
I did feel a bit guilty though because she said it was meant for me, haha.

Huh, maybe it doesn't have as much on it as you thought?
hearty quartz
I just checked, 30~ ish. Enough for Hades!
proud flicker
Use it to buy Steam Gift Cards maybe? I hope you get it figured out.
hearty quartz
Perhaps Steam is bias against MasterCard, jaja.
That's what I was thinking - but I'd have to ask. I cannot drive. Massive anxiety.
twilit quiver
I know some other sites are biased against MasterCard right now, or I guess I should say MasterCard is bias against them
hearty quartz
I did try buying a key from a third-party website (a Steam gift) but that also declined.
Anyways, I'd prefer my money go directly to the devs anyhow.

I like to write what i deeply wish and what comes from my heart.

Like, the brilliant dublin joke thats russian that I cant translate because it relies on russian words
mild pelican
- are those white tomatoes?
- yes, they are
- but why are they yellow?
- because they are still green
mild pelican
how in the world can a foreigner know, that if a fruit or vegetable is "green", it meens "not ripe yet"
and there are lots of similar cases, when it's nearly impossible to understand something, if you haven't live among people for a while
limber walrus
See, I do know that
I just don't have that automatic connection that that's the intended meaning
mild pelican
also, harsh soviet legacy.. there was a time when you could've got in jail, or even executed for a political joke.. and that's when satirists learned to hide the true meaning of the jokes under several layers of other meanings, to bypass censorship..
and people got used to think first, then laugh.. part of the joy was from the fact that you got what was meant there
alas, most of that satirists are gone by now
modern russian humor is easier, just a regular stand-up, available to everyone
well, as for my friend, she now play games in english only, to improve the skill and to enjoy original voice acting
it's always much richer and voiceacting is better
i'm now thinking about learning japanese someday.. for similar reasons
hasty kernel
Eh, satirists are still a thing
In germany political satire is perhaps their most defining style of humour
We have standup, but its frankly rubbish
But yeah soviet-era political jokes are great

I just got here and would like to thank the team at Supergiant for making a game with characters I both relate to and love. I have been able to become genuinely invested in the lore of these bull-headed, oblivious, obviously-in-love-but-unable-to-process-emotions idiots, and for making a game with people Like Me in it.
Thank you.

In general, I guess?

having that body looks mildly aerodynamic, I guess, so even though it looks out there, you could tell people that it's functional

cult snort lol ok then continues playing hades and transistor
limber walrus
I've played Bastion and Transistor, and I'm picking up Pyre soon
all because of the demo video of Malphon that I saw months before I even picked up the game
fervent orchid
I've yet to play bastion and pyre, but when I found out transistor had "siblings" by the same studio, I was excited. simply because there was something different about the way transistor was made lkasdj
if enjoying several games by the same studio makes us a cult, then I've got bad news for that reviewer

Hmm reading through reviews of Isaac, Hades, and Souls games, the negative ones are very similar across all of three games.
(Though the positive ones are mostly the same also)
Guess that makes sense haha

Whether the game is good or overhyped?

The only two places you don't go for to see for your game is the review section and forums (unless you're looking for a fix)
proud flicker
Whether the game is good or overhyped?
I'm reading the 98% Positive Review thread
Where there are 2 simultaneous argument about
a) Is the game good?
b) Did Hades manipulate both Steam and Switch reviews to get the 98% with 100k review.
glass ember
Yep. You'll get seriously spiced, positelively or not (pretty much why, over the years, I stop to try to interact with people about various stuff)
simple owl
Hmmm
is it me not liking the game, or the devs put out a game that has good gameplay and narrative that makes the game have a positive review?
proud flicker
I'm laughing at one dude who is trying to argue "low" concurrent players somehow implies the 100k reviews as fake.

Tomato sauce is more or less universal and cant be tracked down, hollaindaise is either dutch or, most likely, english (Yeah that surprised me too) and espagnole is probably spanish
