steamgaf chat hates me ;_;

Yep I do that autonomously. Like a bloody school kid swapping their sticker collection/trading cards in the playground.
you can turn them off
pretty sure I have to turn them off universally though? as in, I wont get a notification from a regular chat with one person either
Please do. From the look of the trailer it looks like it could be completely awesome or utter crap.
Liiiies. We won't hate you.
And yeah, that can get a tiny bit annoying. There should be an option to turn off notifications for group chats. When I'm just idling in the group chat but having a conversation with a friend and I have to keep clicking the window to see which one got the new message...
I've thought about joining but I was hesitant due to being 'new' to GAF at the time.

Many belated thanks, Stump. Really appreciated. I went for Megaton in the end and I absolutely love it.
gaf steam chat is like gaf without the modding
one of the times I was there everyone was throwing kinda sexist slurs while linking to threads and stuff like that
I mean whatever it probably changed a lot and I know wich people were specifically doing that but all im saying is that it can get ugly
reason I "left" is because I occassionally went there offering to buy games for some people cheaper on my region and people took it like I was spamming or something and kinda ganged up on me, hah
this was like 2 years ago, I think

I joined before I even got my forum account. Haha
Ah, yeah. It hasn't been like that for quite a while now. I can't think of one person who's currently in the chat regularly who isn't a very pleasant person.
woah, Ms Splosion Man? and it's part of the 'Twisted Pixel Games Comp' http://steamdb.info/app/105420/
Wuts that?

I guess having no one there is the pleasant experience.

PC version's been announced since April 2012
they hinted on twitter for news at PAX
the "comp" part doesnt mean game compilation, as you might think.
With all this Duke love happening today, along with the HL2-Doom mod thread thought I'd jump on some classic FPS and popped Doom II. Yeah it's still loads of fun and I've still got a handle on the controls and where stuff is even after close to 20 years. Then I come to realise there's no flipping jump key and can't get the flipping key in just the second level. I suck.
Me pls? PM-ed email

I really wish steam could manage a higher friend count than 300. I'm almost at the limit again yet I want to start being more in line with SteamGAF. That'd mean I'd have to start pruning from my other communities and a part of me hates having to do that.

yup
ive been at the friend limit for like a year now, and it's not even a "im so popular!" thing, it's just that there was a moment where i'd add everyone and now im too lazy (the process is also kind of a hassle) to delete them.
I always need to delete one or two people when I know someone's gonna add me, and because of this ive occassionally deleted some people I like because their Steam nickname is different than their GAF one

Thankfully the Steam add nickname feature is there. Thought does bug out occasionally and doesn't display peoples names in the activity feed.
There's nothing I like more than to read fellow Steam GAFfers posting about games they hate. They have such a delicacy with the language, a firm grasp of metaphors and a passion for brutally deep analogies.
Seriously guys, your anger and aversion is my joy and pleasure. I'm not even sarcastic, I really like how you do it. You say it in such a way that I can't help enjoying it even though I may not agree.
I added you on SteamCan I have one too please

I actually spend a lot of time chatting with a few GAFfers on Steam, I should try the group chat more often.

Where can I buy a money printing machine like yours? Do you have a spare one?Still waiting for Duke Nukem 3d to pop but
Yesterdays purchase
and todays purchases
well im sold
I dont add crazy people
The game's called fucking Don't Starve, it's no surprise there's barely any meat, Sherlock!
I don't know the reason for the fascination with that game, either. Just like with FTL, it's one of those game whose concept and screenshots don't appeal to me at all.
FTL is one of the best games of 2012, easily
people get scared off cause its a "sim", but the balance is perfect: easy to learn but hard to master. Super addictive.

I'l let you borrow mine. but don't tell anyone.
Not sure if this been mentioned, but it seems that all Sonic games are 50% off as the daily deal, not just the Sonic Racing games.
Good time to pick up Generations (even though it's been cheaper before) considering the Unleashed Levels mod just came out.

I don't have Guardians of Light, so I'd like it a lot
Edit: Thanks a lot CosmicQueso. Gaffers, I love you!
dont starve plz?
edit: damn i lost
seriously, you guys should visit that chat.
btw I'm tempted to buy Hotline Miami and Organ Trail. (this one looks ass but I want to play it)
Oh of course there are free games right after I stop refreshing this thread.
I didn't really have any interest in FTL from the screenshots/videos/concept either, but I was gifted it... And I put 8 hours into it the first 2 days I had it. It's crazy good. It's something you kind of need to play to understand.

Thanks, CosmicQueso!
I'm still unsure about it, given my dislike for strategy games (although I liked AoE2 back in the day).
I may cave in for like 3 bucks, maybe...
Don't really read off topic but that mirrors track is real good.
I think your ability to enjoy Don't Starve pretty much all depends on how much you like games like Minecraft and Terraria. While it has a few of it's own unique qualities (the grim fairy tale art and top down perspective in particular), like those games it's all about unscripted gameplay in a randomly generated environment. I'm loving Don't Starve because I love sandbox-y gameplay that allows me to create my own, unique experience. That, and I love inventory management and survival elements in games, the constant state of tension is like a high for me.
But at the same time, I can see how someone could be disinterested in the constant grind of gathering, crafting and trying not to starve. I think it's unfair to say it's as shallow as a Facebook game, there's plenty of depth in crafting and various cool shit to see, but it does lack the Lego appeal of Terraria or Minecraft since you can't build anything but basic, one story structures.
It's THAT good? Mmm... I loved Hotline Miami when every screenshot told me I wouldn't (thanks guys, you were totally right!), so it'd be only fair to give this game a chance too.
But only for $3, as I said before. I don't want to spend more on something I'm 97% sure I won't like (I really hope I'm wrong).
Oh, that reminds me, I'm currently playing through Hotline Miami. That game is nuts. It's probably got one of the most distinct moods of any game I've played. The graphics, story, gameplay, and music all mesh so perfectly.
But anyways, that's fair enough. That's the price point I was going to wait for as well, so I totally get that. Haha
I haven't really dug into it yet, but it seems cool, even though I had no idea what I was doing. I spent the entire first day aimlessly wandering the streets.
FTL was my favorite game last year. It's the shit, I promise.
