Empress_Owl: **Hugs and pet a Pimp** :-> teehee
How are you doing, Pimp ?
*purrs and hugs again* I am doing well other than a bit dizzy, have two vampire the masquerade characters I have to plan out and make. Will be getting some use out of that humble bundle. :P

pimpmonkey2382.313: Haven't even bothered to look. Been getting ready for VtM games, gotta put that humble bundle to use. :P

Just looked, the only thing I would want are the gothic games. Since I'm loving Risen right now.
I had to have a look to see what you were talking about, but then I saw the RPG book bundle on Humble.

The Gothic games are said to be very good, I know many on here speak very highly of them.

Vnlr: Today is going well enough so far, but then I'm spending most of my time away from reality in my head these days ;)

I had some manic uprisings of melancholy but managed to scare them away by long exposure to postmodernist orchestral music.

So, as long as it doesn't get worse it's fair enough.

Getting to be gruff over it here also helps tons ;)
Sorry to hear that, but I am glad you are finding things to take your mind of things, and if being "gruff" here helps then feel free to be a Gruffalo all you like. :-)

Dizzy but doing well otherwise. Having slight character creation writers block.

ddickinson: So if GOG was to offer age verification for German users, they would then be allowed to sell the games? But I guess it would need to be a real method of verification. Or maybe they could just sell the games at the times that Origin and Uplay do. It is not perfect, but at least a compromise. Or of course the politicians could stop being the only nation in the democratic world to do this kind of stuff and allow their people the choice. It is not like there is not other violence games and things that are allowed. In fact it is strange what is listed as not allowed and what is allowed.
Yes. Well there are systems available where the either the German Mail or the bank would verify your age. And the Origin / Uplay method only works for games which have a proper 18 rating. It's not enough for indexed games which can be sold to adults but the seller has to make sure that minors cannot get the game...it's complicated. Well the only issue which can be changed by our politiicians is to establish clearer rules for the age verification and possibly rethink the §131 StGB. The other big issue (the symbolism) is a matter for the courts...

Well we're not the only one (maybe the only one that makes so complicated) - Australia is also quite good at banning games.

Good morning,

I hope you manage to get your mind to focus on more pleasant affairs. Being stuck with a bundle of nagging anxiety can really drive a person nuts, I should know :)

That asides, I do hope you are having a good day thus far?
Hey everyone, great promo for once.
Anyone planning on getting anything?

nope, other than the gothic sale, the sale is pretty "meh" to me.
Hello to anyone who has arrived since I last posted!

I guess with it being such a silly setup that is why Steam and GOG most likely don't want to bother with it, maybe they are not allowed to use the verification systems of the German Mail or the Bank due to them being international business, even though they have German offices. I guess a change in the law is the only likely fix to all this, given how complicated it can be.

Australia does indeed ban a few games, but not as bad when compared to the sheer amount of games, literature, movies, etc, that Germany limits. I just don't see the logic in it. They ban/index some violent games, but allow many others, there seems to be little consistency.

Aw, dislike the genre's on offer or just those particular games?

I hope you feel better. It seems I'm always anxious and you're always dizzy. <3

Thank you. It's no fun, takes away your appetite, and sometimes there's not even a good reason for it. Besides that I'm fine, going to work an easy day and then hang out with friends and see the new Star Trek again. How is your day going? :)
