STEAM 2013 Announcements & Updates VII: Known bug with library game count.
- Thread starter MRORANGE
- Start date
- Status
From Amazon's website
So looks like you have 30 days from payments, and 24-48 hours from when you start it
Cheers, that wasn't mentioned on the page.
Edit: Err, wait, yes it is. I'm a dumbo and didn't notice the "details" link next to "Rental rights".
It is a four pack.
Yeah, store page was slowly updating for me. Wonder if it's better balanced than Rogue Legacy...

What's the known bug about? Why the thread title change?
What method? I didn't know there was a way to use Xinput with a DS3 without DS3Tool.

Count was higher than it should be. But mine has been fixed.
Game count being off, large number of strange "SteamApps" appearing in lists.

Thank you for the giveaways, MakeshiftChef and Dusk Golem (I really hope it is not possible to win more than one time in a giveaway...)
My little contribution:
I have been enjoying what I have played of the game so far. I would say that it is more of a game than I was expecting, but I would still call it more fascinating than "fun".
I have played for the first time through Tomas was Alone. It's an ambitious idea, that the game really manages to pull off. Funny, engaging, beautiful, and with some really well written characters. The only issue I had was with how the game handles inertia, or maybe how it handles input from an analog stick, I couldn't figure it out.
Thank you again for the chance to play it, Colin.

Oh aweso.... Zzzzzzzz
Regarding the talks about the controllers on the previous page, I'd recommend getting a 360 one instead of waiting for the Xbone's. Sure, the Dpad is better, but everything else is worse imo. (The DS4 is excellent but the feel is a totally different, and I imagine the Steam controller will be even less comparable.)
This is the method I used too. Works brilliantly.

Well this is pretty depressing, my giveaway failed again - or theres like 15 games to be redeemed..I did got a "BOGUS KEY" message for two of my keys via my loot command though, so maybe these would work without them..

Oooh. I've been holding out until I found a PS3 copy for cheap so I could get both the PC and PS3 versions, but that price is good. Hmmm.
I also might have x360ce installed in order to make it emulate a 360 pad. I don't remember if that driver does that on it's own or if I had to do that separately with x360ce. I guess it speaks to how smoothly it works when I haven't had to touch it in forever because it just works. I still kind of wish I had a proper GC controller for dolphin though. Nintendo always has such weird button layouts.

Whoa, what the hell. I don't have this. I think :s

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I think it's definitely one of the best options on the PC. Rock-solid construction, fantastic compatibility, pretty great battery life, a better d-pad than the 360 pad, and better shoulder buttons than a PS3 pad. The only negative I have is that the wireless receiver doesn't have fantastic range in my setup (which isn't an issue with the wired version, obviously).
That being said, I can't wait for Valve's controller.

Take it away (reposting these)
For the rest of the keys I need help from Stump - how do I nuke "BOGUS GAME KEYS" that I see in my loot command?

I was waiting until I could catch up on the thread to make a proper post about it :
Thank you to fellow Wok for Fester Mudd !
I'm genuinely interested in it and the game was in my wishlist, thanks again !

On a related note, for anybody wondering about the humble daedalic bundle. If you do not hate point and click games, I see no reason to not bite the bullet on it. It is true that the most interesting offer if (logically) behind the BTA gate, but let's examine what you receive for 6$
Edna & Harvey: Harvey's New Eyes
- second installment of a pnc series about a mental institute patient and her friend a living fluffy rabbit (the first episode won several prizes)
A New Beginning - Final Cut
- a seemingly bad game with weak plot and bad voice work, nice looking
The Whispered World
- again bad voices in some country, but had really good reviews
The Chronicles of Shakespeare: Romeo & Juliet
Game box The Chronicles of Shakespeare: A Midsummer Night's Dream
- didn't even know they were released outside of Germany, someone said hidden object games :fear:
Deponia
- good reviews overall, top hand drawn environments, I vouch for it
Journey of a Roach
- a game that just came out !
The Dark Eye - Chains of Satinav
- good reviews, magnificent art
So for 6$ you have a newly released game, two very solid pnc, the second episode of a strange pnc and some fluff. Not bad, pretty fantastic even.

On to Deponia itself.
I loved it. Yup, I keep repeating myself but that's the extent of how I loved it.
Basically in a time when I needed to experiment that old PNC feel again, the game was exactly what I was looking for. In recent years some companies were more or less labeled as point and click keepers of the flame, but they don't hold a candle to Daedalic in my opinion. Telltale's Sam & Max were too inconsistent and the ditching of hand drawn graphics was an horrible idea come to life (season 3 wasn't so bad though). And Pendulo, yeah they are sympathetic, yeah I owe them some really happy hours with their game Igor: Objective Uikokahonia, but the Runaway series never really stood on its own for me.
Deponia on the contrary... Nice hand drawn graphics, humor and above all not too heavy on the stupidly convoluted puzzles (I could finish it by myself, oh the joy).
What is it about ? Yeah I could have begun with that, I shouldn't have drunk some wine some minutes ago... Deponia tells the story of a man stranded on a planet which have become a junkyard, where only the poor people live. The rich, nice, lucky, whatever, lives elsewhere. Can't recall, maybe a space station. Evidently our protagonist is literally obsessed with the idea of leaving Deponia and joining the other side. Evidently he is also a loser. And evidently he is also an egomaniac and some could argue a misogynist. Adventures and hilarity ensues.
That's all, if you like pnc you could do far worse than to play Deponia, far far worse. And look on the bright side, if you crave for a little white knighting you can jump on the bandwagon of people lamenting over the so called misogynistic depiction of women (despite the fact that the only time where the main girl acts, she is not a poor victim, despite the fact that you are playing a light, humorous game with a loser as a hero, despite all common sense). You can saddle up you white horse and join the fun too !

All these games being released on Steam and so little money to spend. D:
Speaking of FPS secrets, there's a lovely easter egg in the beginning of the new Shadow Warrior (dunno how the rest, though. Haven't played it).

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I'd say people looking to buy the game are certainly fans of little things, though.
No idea, but I just wishlisted it.
Reading the review excerpts, that actually sounds hella fun. >.>

You're the best, that's like above average but better. I went in on a bunch of games, I feel bad about it but I justify it with how broke I am. Hope I win something, good modbot luck to everyone.
