Key trading/Russian trading?

You can pre-order Blackwell Epiphany now (humble widget). It's the fifth and final chapter in the Blackwell series, and you get a bunch of fun pre-order bonuses. You get a Steam key immediately after purchase too, so you'll be ready on April 24.
So I finished Sudeki. It was a decent enough experience (though the ending was pretty underwhelming - it was about a half-step away from being "thank you for playing") and I'm glad to have finally satisfied my curiosity about it, but I don't see myself going back to finish up the handful of sidequests I left unfinished. I wouldn't mind seeing another action-RPG in the same vein (you control one character directly while the AI handles the other three and you can freely switch between them; the two melee-oriented party members play like something out of Dynasty Warriors, while the spellcaster/ranged types are played from first person, like an FPS), preferably fleshed out a little more.
Now I need to pick something to focus on next. Otherwise I'll probably end up spending all my gaming time playing Puzzle Quest and Luxor Evolved. >.> (And SHoDN. That's another one I can lose a bunch of time playing, I've discovered. ^^; )

Fantastic price considering some of the awesome workshop content coming out such as the Black Knight mod (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=232823090) and the Giant Slayers mod (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=226726898)

The console version does have dynamic lightning though.

really I couldn't tell
Never thought i'd actually enjoy Tomb Raider, but my word, this game is great. Looks phenomenal and has an incredible atmosphere, combat is also a joy to take part in. Currently at the radio tower when you first start seeing snowy environments, can't wait to see what else there is to offer in this game.
Aye, 13 keys from a trader on steamtrades. Had most of the money in card cash so not too shabby since I was looking to get the game anyway eventually

ONE FINGER DEATH PUNCH!
Which 2 of the 3 games should I go for?
- Alan Wake's American Nightmare: It might be short but I have heard it have replayability in the survival mode?
- Just Cause 2: I know this one's a huge game.
- Call of Juarez: Gunslinger: Have heard impressions that it's a mighty fun FPS. Does it have replay-value?

^IMO Gunslinger since its short.
I'd get into the whole key trading if it just didn't seem 'odd' to me. I get how it works but all in all I'm more used to regular game trading or staright up buying it.

Just to let you know, Just Cause 2 is on sale at least once a month somewhere.

Damn.
Now to play the waiting game.
One I've earmarked for Paper Monsters but if I sell the other 15 for 30 keys at some point, and key prices have returned to ~$2.40, I'll make over $900. I kinda feel sorry for the few people I bought the copies from, but, hey, it's a predatory game.

Now to play the waiting game.
Bought two from a trader. I am waiting with you. What's your prediction on how much it can be sold for?
People are already asking for 15 keys and this'll only go up as time goes on and the game becomes more rare. I probably won't bother selling off my stash until the Summer Sale is near.
maybe i should buy more
That's the spirit!
I enjoy it quite a bit. I wish there were more weapons, modes, and a way to customize your character/titan, but what's there is worthwhile. Titanfall is closer to MW2's focus on incredibly powerful everything, but they lean into it more. If you don't like shooters that give an absurd amount of offensive power to players, this might not be for you.
While Respawn's CoD roots is apparent, the pilot's maneuverability allows for a play style closer to Quake. I think it's the most effective way to play Titanfall.
Black is the original game and its expansion sewn together; H&D is a remake of the two.
Ok. Should I jsut buy Hell & Damnation then?
I've no idea how the two compare.
I think it's missing a bunch of levels compared to Black.

I wonder if I should bump the Steam Dev Days video thread, because it's evident from the recent SC thread people are still ignorant as hell. Even if they still disagree with Valve's thought process watching those vids might bring some better understanding in those threads.
....
nah who am I kidding, nothing would change.

Most people don't bother reading an OP and you want them to watch a video?
heh, I know. It's just disheartening. You simply can't have proper discussions in those threads, because people are too boneheaded.
Good luck

I know this has been posted many times, but I searched the OP and couldn't find it:
How can I get steam to stop updating every damn time I open it up?
I'm also eagerly awaiting the removal of GFWL BS from Dark Souls. I took a break a few months ago from it and once I realized I couldn't get back in without downloading the windows live crap for the 10th time, I just said fuck it. It's not worth it. I can't believe it won't let me play a game I bought.

Opt out of the client beta. Stable client updates are only released once a month or so.

I just tried and I once again couldn't get Dark Souls to work.

It's also doesn't matter how many times you say the "d-pad" is not a "d-pad" they'll not read, or just ignore it to shit post in the thread. How hard is to read the content in the OP and some of the insightful posts before posting opinions.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
I would like to play a game in which I blindly reach into JaseC's inventory and keep whatever I pull out. Like some sort of raffle mystery box of terrible games that have been removed from Steam.

When is the Valve holiday again? Next week or after?

Everything is Pat & Mat in his inventory.
From what I've read Valve has so many employees now they send half of their employees on vacation one week and the other half the next week.
Nice.Am I pro?
Apparently very, doesn't matter what thread it is. Salsa's "don't tell me how to steam sale" gif deserves a Pulitzer.
Probably a Indie Spring sale. Should start during this month. This was the banner in 2013:
Haha, my scalping list is growing rather large now:
Mind you, I really need to get around to asking Valve for a refund on those SR4 DLC packs... and I still don't actually have three spare copies of Saw. It needs to go on sale again.
Edit: I just realised I've misspelled "Helicopters". How embarrassing.
I hope something like this happens. There are quite a few indies I need on steam, especially SMB.
Those Motor Rock guys are selling keys to their removed game, right? Maybe you should use your greenlight sub for nefarious purposes.
