So, if I can only afford one or the other, should I get Wasteland 2 or Kerbal Space Program?

Kerbal Space Program.

It's the greatest game in all of history.
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?

Oh yeah, I guess it's again time for me to see if people here want any of the random steam games I've had piling up. I have keys for:
140
Super Amazing Wagon Adventure
The Cat Lady
Defender's Quest: Valley of the Forgotten
Abyss: The Wraiths of Eden
Super Killer Hornet: Resurrection
Miner Wars 2081
Chaos Domain
Rover Rescue
Space Farmers
Borealis

I think that's all but if I find anything else I'll let you know :V

Anyone playing Endless Legend? Signed up for a month of IGN prime to get a key, which worked.

It seems pretty fun and I like that the different factions/races are all very different but it feels unpolished.

Trying to actually play all the way through Psychonauts finally. Actually got through my bane of previous playthroughs, Lungfishopolis.

Psychonauts rules. I didn't mind Lungfishopolis, it was pretty fun stomping around as a giant.

My favorite world is by far Black Velvetopia. It has such cool art style and level design.

Stomping around as a giant was fine, but until this playthrough, I just kept getting killed more quickly than I wanted. This time, I guess I just hunkered down and finished it. I hear that the game gets significantly better moving forward, so looking forward to it.

I actually got stuck at Black Velvetopia on my first playthrough. The art is so cool but it's just a bizarre leap that it kind of shut me down. I did finish though and I really enjoyed the whole game.

psychonauts is lovely indeed. not the most perfect game from a gameplay standpoint but still plenty fun, and the writing is just stellar

Is Plague Inc. worth $14.99? I watched the Game Grumps play it for their Halloweek and it looked really entertaining. I just want to know if as a fairly casual gamer I should pay that for it or wait for to go on sale or in a humble bundle.

That's true, I suppose. Plague Inc is prettier though and makes it a little more complex

Beat Organ Trail for the first time today! I think I had lost all my friends before I reached Saint Louis and thus had a lonely journey throughout the rest of the country. :P

I love these simulation type of games (Organ/Oregon/FTL).

does anyone live/work/travel anywhere near a gamestop (in NA, obviously) and wouldn't mind doing me a huge favor

Gamestop is doing some Pokemon code giveaway thing, featuring an event-only Pokemon that's only available until the 16th (and so far is the only way to get this Pokemon - think Mew or Celebi from the old games). it's a slip of carboard with a scratch-off thing for the code. the codes are free to give away, so you can just walk in and ask for one, no preordering or w/e necessary. esurio and I put off going to Gamestop and the one near us is out of stock. I already have a code (traded on the pokemontrades subreddit) and was planning to pick up an extra or two, but esurio is SOL and we're both kind of anal about missing events like these.

I'll pay you back in a $5-$10 Steam game of your choosing in exchange for a code, for your troubles of having to walk into a Gamestop and ask about Pogeymanz.

There's a gamestop near my house; I can inquire for you.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

Don't worry about it; the gamestop is near my house, and not even out of my way on the drive home. You might say this task is easy as pie.
