The 'living' part refers to the card games being actual living entities that are predatory towards your wallet. This is why you should only go to your FLGS with a friend so you can have them stay outside with your money so you can browse without worry although I've heard that garlic works as well.

Minecraft Pocket Edition. Man this game has come a long way. Gives a very true Minecraft experience which is good for me considering my laptop can't even run the PC version  |

Hearthstone iPhone edition made me realise how much I hated ios games in general by providing a rare counter-example. I fucking hate the app store, it ate hundreds of dollar's worth of gift cards I could have spent on Steam instead.

after playing more, im legit impressed with this game. it really IS what sim city 2013 should have been. but the coolest thing is, it doesnt feel like someone just cloned sim city and added stuff, it feels like a "real" sequel. they took the basic design of sim city and expanded on it in several smart ways. great. |

It's probably hard to implement modding in any game, but when you're working with a pre-made engine, then of course it's gonna take a bunch of work.

I don't know, I'm no expert. But it depend on what kind of modding, with what I know It doesn't sound that difficult but I never gone so far. modable code might be the most problematic, importing asset can be done with the WWW class, component allow for composition easily.
However if you want to use unity and are artistically challenge, there is enough good free stuff on asset store (and internet at large) to use as a starting point (modify, swap texture, etc...). For example you can use UMA (free) to set a character generator offline (or online) if you want to do a game with plenty npc. The more you understand 3D the more you empower to free yourself from graphism without being a competent artist (ie do a decent passable job), everything is swappable and reusable.

Bushido Blade 1 & 2, entertaining the idea of playing through Way of the Samurai 4. Intermittent bouts of Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, Dark Souls 2, and Dragon Quest 7.

I just "finished" Fez, but I wasn't done. Had like 20% left to collect.
Very... interesting ending.
I got pissed for a second when I thought I couldn't continue my save file, but apparently new game + is my old save file but with sunglasses and an FP feature??

This is correct. Still loving Mario Picross 2. I love games that reward the player with new places to explore when you complete objectives, and nonograms are great. Started playing Epic Mickey 1. I really dig the detail in the level design, especially Mickey Junk Mountain and the way they opted for actual Mickey merchandise and not just generic stuff. I stopped frequently to examine things in the background just to see them in more detail. I don't care for the way how so many quests auto-fail if you progress a little. The task to collect mecha-goofy parts, for example, is spoiled by all the one-way doors in the zone that prevent backtracking to explore for pieces you missed. It's also a little awkward when a quest is abruptly completed by finding hidden gremlin. It'd be nice if I could just go back and explore the zone a second time. Dying undoes progress in unpredictable ways. Gremlins stay rescued and tickets stay collected, but you lose key items. I lost out on a quest because I got the key item, died to something unrelated, and apparently lost the item before I left the zone. The cartoon-themed platforming levels between zones are cute, but they really should have made the one between Mean Street and Oz Town skippable. It's still a really fun game despite those few clumsy bits. |

Man, its TBS holiday on Steam.
Endless Legend has a free weekend and you can buy Eador or Disciples 2 for less than a buck(my regional prices are half of normal, but its still pretty ridiculous)
Although make sure to buy Eador:Genesis. Its pretty one-man game, another one is said to be a broken 3d-remake goop.
I also like how Disciples 2 has early press-release 2001 screenshot with beta stuff that didnt made it into the game. Those pseudo-Stratgy First honchos are real shady.

Well, first one is one-man indie production and second was picked up by a random studio, who are responsible for some mediocre games.
I remember having negative impression of announcement because their PR guy just straight up started interview from saying "Eador was popular but looked like shit". Thats kinda rubbed everyone the wrong way.
Its sad the original designer is not going back, hes working on some card game now.

hmm? i thought the original guy was still involved with the remake somehow? guess not then. idk im not russian and i only discovered eador when it came to gog so not really aware of its history or anything.
btw the same devs are also developing that pirate mount & blade standalone mod thing that has many of the exact same problems as the eador remake. theyre just incompetent as fuck unfortunately.
