So by accident for XCOM: Enemy Unknown, I cancelled the VC-Redist setup before it went all the way through, and I think that's the result for me getting green bars when I start the game, and later, a BSOD.
The intro screen looks like this:

Is there any way to fix...
That just makes it harder to figure out what it's about. If I could actually focus on it enough to read and comprehend it I might be able to figure it out.
@GnomeSlice It's an argument calling for developers to stop trying to quantify fun via numbers and formulae, because it's locking developers into certain types of games they believe have been "proven" to be fun.
I will use an example. I'm going to to research X-Tech. This tech needs:
Artillery Skill 3
Artillery Skill 3
Org Skill 3
Org Skill 3
Electronics 3
I have two research groups to choose from:
XYZ; Skill 4; Artillery Skill and Org Skill
ZYX; Skill 3; Artillery Skill, Org Skill and Electronic

> Obsessed with measuring everything and therefore defining all of their problems in numerical terms, social game makers have come to believe that those numbers are all there is, and this is why they cannot permit themselves to invent. Like TV people, they are effectively in search of that one number that will explain fun to them. There must, they reason, be some combination of LTV and ARPU and DAU and so on that captures fun, like hunting for the Higgs boson. It must be out there somewhere.
@Fluttershy The problem is that even when they try something new, the try and shove in things that will increase numbers.
One example would be shoving in a romance subplot or a love interest, when one really wasn't needed at all. In situations like that it usually just doesn't work at all, and just feels forced.
I have boatload of assassins now, which gives me 3 "assassin bars". I now see an option that says "assassinate/arrow storm", but every time I call the assassins only one shows up and they don't seem to be using arrows or any more powerful. For reference I'm playing on the PC and "T" is the butt...
I've just been looking at some Hidden Abilities to see what might be good to aim for.
One such Ability is Pickpocket. According to the information I've found, it will steal the opponent's held item if the opponent makes contact.
I've noticed that simultaneous abilities generally work in an orde...
I just found there's a handful of free DLCs for Mass Effect 3, including an Extended Cut that supposedly fixes some issues with the ending. So, of course I downloaded and installed them as soon as I could. However, after the DLCs were installed, the game would not load.
It would get past the o...
I often find that my research points per turn are higher than it takes to discover a new technology. What happens to the excess point? Are they stored for later? Are they used for the next tech in the queue? What happens if there's no other tech in the queue? What should I do in this case?
If I choose some future advancement which has its prerequisites not yet researched I will enqueue more than one tech. Can I enqueue unrelated techs? How do I do it?
I have a Hidden Power TM that I got from... some... person. It doesn't matter where I got it. I was thinking about using it on my Abra. I looked up on the bulbapedia how hidden power works, and got a butt-load of math that I don't wish to perform. Is there some simple lamens terms way to determin...
@GnomeSlice Capcom decided to be assholes and after teasing about adding Mega Man to Street Fighter X Tekken, they went and added fat megaman from the original US NES Box Art.
I have been ripped off a couple of times recently trading for hats and weapons in Team Fortress 2 - is there a price guide available anywhere that I can reference to stop this from happening?
Obviously I don't expect it to be perfect, the prices I get will differ from person to person, but even ...
None of the stuff in here maps to cash, and the steam interface doesn't appear to show you average price or anything like that, it just lets you put in a number
The question stands for itself. I'm especially interested in skeletons, but I like to keep the topic general.
I something to get skeletons from a monster spawner go up and fall, but they still need a few hits to die, so I would like to know how high I need to let them fall so that they would onl...
I understand that this question has been asked loads of time, but all the forums, wikis and answers I am seeing give different answers, so I am confused in regard to what and what not the corruption/hallow is able to jump across.
Terraria - Will the corruption/hallow be able to jump across my s...
> You settle in for the night. Just after sunrise, your sleep is cut short: flaring lights, moving outside the ruined walls! You reach for your gear as the lights reveal themselves to be the blackened bones of skeletal figures. They claw at the rock piles and soon pull one down, but by then you are ready for them.
How the fuck can blackened bones look like flashing lights.
@OrigamiRobot Oh yeah. It's more common in the post season (or the end of the regular season when the post season is on the line), but it happens all the time

I have won some and lost only a couple how do go from 2350 to 1350 in two days also I sometimes quit too but this doesn't. Make sense??? How. Do you lose this many points in 3 days
Ok, so I completed the helm of winterhold quest and it won't let me start purity of revenge. I waited 30 in game days and nothing. And since finding the problem, I have already defeated alduin and accomplished so much so reloading a save isn't an option. Any ideas?
