Massive Chalice
 
Would anyone here like a Steam Key for a Final Fantasy Tactics type RTS with permadeath that spans generations? Let me know if you want it, and tell my why it should go to you!

This game is Double Fine at its best, by the way. Brad Muir is the lead, and it was his concept. Double Fine games led by him typically have the deepest game mechanics, and all around most polished gameplay of anything made by the studio. Keep in mind, though, that this game is in beta, and will be buggy.

I'd like to try this out!

Job McYossie 10-21-2014 03:21 PM

Wow varrock, such an amazing argument as to why you should get it.

Vyrien 10-21-2014 03:26 PM

I should get it because I wrote (stole) a fantastic poem for you but you spurned my advances.

Mac Sirloin 10-21-2014 04:56 PM

I want it because I love Final Fantasy tactics hard. Howr'dever, my laptop would probably make wet jalopy noises if I tried to play anything post 2005 on it, so I hereby withdraw my self-acclaimed nomination.

Shade667 10-21-2014 07:20 PM

Its not an RTS. Its a TBS, like xcom.
And civilisation.
Its one of the 3 games I really wnat a PC to play. Alongside hearthstone and DOTA 2.

I should get it because I will actually try it out. The last time OANST gave away a game it went to some random guy who doesn't even post anymore and we haven't heard anything from him related to the game.

Also, OANST should give me the game because he loves me. And of course I love turn-based games. The mechanics remind me fairly of XCOM, and I fucking love XCOM (the original)

OANST 10-22-2014 06:24 AM

Good enough reasons for me! Also, you're the only one with a machine that can play it who expressed interest. I'm going to pm you a link in a second.

Also, I have unused Steam Keys for all of the Amnesia Fortnight games, and an OUYA key for Broken Age if anyone wants those.

Manco 10-22-2014 10:21 AM

but who’d want an OUYA, let alone games for it

OANST 10-22-2014 10:45 AM

Yeah, I don't know anyone who has one of those.

Varrok 10-22-2014 10:49 AM

the people who kickstartered it and didn't have the guts to sell it

I'm interested in this.

Varrok 10-22-2014 11:22 AM

The game with a horse is awesome, you can even climb invisible walls!

Also, there's foreshadowing of Costume Quest 2, so you know the game is being in the development. Oh wait its already out by now

OANST 10-22-2014 11:23 AM

Goddamnit, I want to play these games!

Job McYossie 10-22-2014 02:49 PM

I would be very interested in the key for Amnesia. I've wanted that game a fair amount ever since I played it at a friends house once. I am a very big fan of the horror genera, but very little can actually scare me, amnesia delivered and I've been wanting to get it ever since.

Also I have a gaming PC and will probably make bad videos of playing it or just stream it while I play.

wow, sad to think this is one of my first non-sarcastic posts in a while

MeechMunchie 10-22-2014 04:08 PM

Amnesia Fortnight is a Double Fine development exercise where they try to prototype a dozen games in two weeks.

You're thinking of Amnesia: The Dark Descent.

OANST 10-22-2014 04:44 PM

So glad I logged in and got the pm from MM telling me about it trying to verify with my phone because I was about to come in here and offer to murder one of you for trying to access my email. I'm guessing that it showed my email address as a hyperlink, and you assumed I hyperlinked on purpose to the humble site. All is well!

OANST 10-22-2014 04:47 PM

Jesus fuck, it's being annoying. It wants you to enter a code to verify that it's me. Here: YY4M5CB

MeechMunchie 10-22-2014 04:49 PM

And then everything was fine.

Damnit you're totally right, sorry everyone, sorry.

Varrok 10-23-2014 01:29 AM

Get their previous game, Penumbra.

Shade667 10-23-2014 02:09 AM

Alot of people bought an OUYA for Towerfall, but now thats on PS4 and PC.

Get your shit and get the fuck out. You're fired.

Job McYossie 10-24-2014 01:44 AM

This is slowly getting worse for me.

OANST 10-24-2014 06:22 AM

Also, we're tying a bowling ball to your dick.

Varrok 10-24-2014 06:28 AM

Now we're tying the second bowling ball. Both of them are blue. Now all your friends laugh at you because you have blue balls

OANST 10-24-2014 07:21 AM

But the joke's on you again, because you don't have any friends.

Mac Sirloin 10-24-2014 09:33 AM

some bad non sequiturs and some italics and also

On a less italicized note, Costume Quest 2 sounds awesome. I loved the first game.

Xavier 10-27-2014 05:49 AM

I made the horrible mistake of buying an OUYA and I still own it. This key might make me want to use it again.

Please OANST?

OANST 10-27-2014 08:28 AM

Done!

Nate 10-27-2014 10:59 PM

Wait... is that key active immediately? As in, Xav will be able to pay the game before I can, despite me being a Kickstarter backer (but not at the Beta level)?

OANST 10-28-2014 06:12 AM

Yes, it is!

Yes, he does!


Edit: The game is released, man. This is not a beta period. If you haven't gotten your keys then you should email support, and find out why.

Edit edit: Unless, of course, you also backed Massive Chalice, and assumed that's the key I gave to Xavier. He got the OUYA key for Broken Age. Not Massive Chalice.

Oh. That makes a lot more sense.

Varrok 10-31-2014 06:22 AM

So, I've started playing Massive Chalice, or, MASSIVE CHALLICE, if you prefer. The game is about a massive challice who orders you to do things for your kingdom such as fighting with bad forces of evil and choosing which of your heroes should fuck the other one of your heroes. You can also pass time really fast and build stuff. The combat is a simplified version of the combat mechanics of Wasteland 2 or the XCOM remake, which... would be good if not the "simplified" word. As if it wasn't simple before.

The game has very stylized and pretty graphics, the sounds are great and it feels fun while playing. It's kind of humorous, I think, which is good.

It crashed after 20 minutes in and I can't get it to launch properly again.
0/10.

OANST 10-31-2014 06:33 AM

Weird. I'm not seeing a lot of people reporting crashes on the forum.

As for the simplified combat, they are looking at all feedback, and still making a lot of changes to the game before they release. This is more of a true beta period than what they did with Broken Age, where they basically just gave out the game two weeks early, and called it a beta.

Varrok 10-31-2014 06:35 AM

Is there some forums for reporting bugs and stuff?

I want to report stuff

OANST 10-31-2014 06:50 AM

Yes, there is!

Varrok 10-31-2014 06:55 AM

Okay, I can play it now. Turns out that fullscreen option is broken for many people.
