Took it, thanks!
Been a while since I've last played a game on steam.
Hearthstone is too addictive.
i'm down for some coop, sounds fun
spiders in it kinda freak me out but you can kill em in one hit and they blow up and disappear so yea after 20 hours it's not too bad

That Source 2 thing is amazing. Such a Valve thing to do. And yes, I think at this point I'd rather have Ricochet 2 than Half-Life 3. Seriously.
Ewww... and wallpapers for 13? That's expensive for something that can be downloaded for free
They better have a dlc pack for cheap. Not gonna shell out a fortune on dlcs
Ah, another person with excellent taste in games. Ricochet 2 will be glorious when it's released next year.

I've kept most of my old CD versions of games anyone can get digitally now so I sort of get why.
For me it's a mixture of laziness and nostalgia
Going by the description they are ingame wallpapers for menus and such. So it's not exactly like you could trick your desktop out with them (I don't know how many would buy them either way).

Oh I've still got a lot of old games on CD/DVD. My copy of Sam and Max Hit the Road has seen better days but I've backed that up. I've lost the second CD to Grim Fandango during one of my many house moves so no idea where that is. I've still got 2 copies of Half Life kicking around but only the case and hence the CD Key for one. My big box collection is not it once was and seeing the prices of some of them now probably never will be again. Then again who want Fate of Atlantis on a bazillion floppy discs.
nah i'm more of the run away/call my mom style
That's even worse. Ingame wallpapers, that I probably won't notice at all :/

We need a SteamGAF playdate for Ricochet.

Not really. You could delete the folders in steamapps\common and then delete all of the ACF manifests, but this would cause the remaining games to appear uninstalled as well.
Edit: Ah, I'd forgotten about the multi-selection update. It's beta-only at this juncture so opt in if you haven't already.
With one of the latest beta updates you can now select multiple installed games (ctrl and left click or shift+left click like any other selection) and right click and then uninstall multiple games at once.
Just tried it out, wasnt sure myself. It then goes ahead and uninstalls both.
Right, seems I need to go into beta. Thanks for the tip.

I'm waiting for the Game Informer cover that has a Valve rumour surrounding it. The over-expectation would be insane.

So I was wondering... If Valve decide that Idle_Master is bad, we'll find all SteamGAF banned? xD
I don't think there's any way they can tell you're using it.
I doubt they're that fussed. You're essential just getting you drops you're entitled to easier and earlier than you would without it and they haven't done anything about peeps using SAM to do the same thing. If they were worried about the market getting flooded with cards they could just increase the drop times. Plus everything I've sold on the market they have taken their cut so they have £1+ from me they wouldn't have got if I didn't use it. Though crossing my fingers nothing stupid happens.
Valve aren't the ones paying you for your sold trading cards, and they take a cut from the person who does, so they absolutely don't care what you use to earn them even more money.

I need to play this game, but my backlog... oh man... too many games I need to play, snif..

. Thanks for the info .Didn't knew it was on the latest beta. You can also select multiple games to install :O.
You should unchart some mysteries with Unearthed: Trail of Ibn Battuta. Even the title is fucking terrible, just look at it!

Wow crazy value. Instead of 1 copy at normal price, you get 4 copies at a reduced price. You save so much money!
Steam wants you to buy one for yourself and three for your friends
Played 5 minutes of it in the closed Beta and it was.. horrible imo. Afaik it did not even have resolution settings and was stuck on 720p. Gameplay wise it was weird as hell as well.
So yeah, I didnt like it lol
I find myself with several Ys games and I'm not sure what order to play them in. I've got Origins, I and II Chronicles Plus, Oath in Felghana, and Memories of Celceta. The last Ys game I played was Ys III on SNES.
Origins is the sticking point. Do I play it first? Last? Somewhere in the middle?

I've had a similar experience, but I spent like half an hour instead. I think it was too early to release the closed beta and it gave a really bad impression.
I'm asking gaf because I might have misunderstood the game, probably someone else knows better. I'm almost done downloading hopefully this will run and play better.
Make sure to give us your impressions, if there were some significant changes I'm ready to give it another chance

It's about 5 hours long, you can do it
Only 5 hours? then I'll definitely play it soonish.

Is it no longer possible to sell Steam gifts on Dispenser unless you have a premium or VIP account? I have 50 CS:GO/Dota 2/etc. slots but zero Steam gift slots.
Edit: Ah, there's a "Steam gifts trading" row on the donation page. That's ridiculous -- the restriction should have only applied to new accounts. I'm not paying a further $40 just to make someone's life a little easier.

Felghana might be the better starting point. Origin takes a ton from Ys I and II, so I'd recommend trying those out before playing it. Feel free to drop that idea if the older games don't click with you. I mean, Origin is just dungeon > dungeon > dungeon, you'll just miss all the references.
Freedom = $1.05

Origins works better after having played I & Ii.
I'd recommend playing chronicles and not fearing to use a guide occasionally. The games are pretty old school in many ways, and their dungeons (especially in ys II) can feel like a maze hell without them. They're also not real explicit with what you need to do in order to proceed so, yeah, don't feel ashamed of having to use a guide every now and then.
If you get past those 2 games and still want some more ys action then I'd probably do either origins or oath after, depending on what you're in the mood for: a prequel or a sequel.
Out of those, Dominique Pamplemousse looks like the PERFECT game. It creeps me out.
I consider them good. I actually enjoyed them.
I NEED TO PLAY THIS GAME RIGHT NOW.
Finished it. Need to finish reviewing it, but yes, the girlfriend and me highly enjoyed how terrible it was.
Thanks a bunch guys. Always on point.
