Support NeoGAF

[Casimir]

Hmm, I've decided to replay Two Worlds 2 after reading Big_Al's experiences. Odd issue though is that on DX10 mode I continue to get CTD's every 10-15 min. Maybe it's just a Nvidia issue as my ATI card didn't seem to have this issue.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Nice thread.

 

[derExperte]

you can nuke the keys.

Oh, sry, I meant on the Humble Bundle site after you bought a bundle. Where you can click on the links and either claim them for your account or gift them.

superlateedit: My friend didn't actually own the game, he only thought so. And HB complains when trying to claim one that is already in the linked Steam account.

 

[RavenValor95]

Wow, that OP is gorgeous.
This feels like a whole new chapter for the SteamGAF books, or like a reboot of sorts where the reboot is actually good and improves on the original formula.

Really love how simple and clean everything is.
Well done!

 

[fernandes]

Woo, new thread format! Is it going to be a monthly thing now?

Anyway, thanks Arthea for his fun giveaway and for "Rearguard Cinderella"!

 

[Salsa]

yea i guess it works for steam thread but indie thread was annoying to follow and i ended up unsubscribing

I wish I could just subscribe to Toma's account

 

[FiveElementNinja]

np. And good luck, that game is hard and mean, I gave up eventually.

I bought it on PS3 ages ago but never got very far in it. I've been wanting to take another crack at it. I wonder if my PS3 save will work on this version.

 

[MRORANGE]

For May, it would be really really useful if people started sending me mini-reviews (or why the game is interesting) of upcoming games for that month, I only received 3 reviews for April.

 

[gabbo]

When did we start switching by month?

 

[Twentieth]

Man, these threads move fast.

HIB PC and Android 9 and the Kalypso Bundle made my day. Highly recommend both.

 

[zkylon]

When did we start switching by month?

like ten minutes ago lol

 

[wetflame]

Arthea, thanks for Huntsman The Orphanage, or Prey The Kindergarden as the clue stated, ha. Much appreciated!

 

[Fuu]

Nice. Great job on the new format of the OP.

 

[Thezez]

Monthly thread, I like!

 

[Milamber]

Wonder how many pages we'll get through by months end.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

I just noticed that 100% Orange Juice has a release date of May 9th now, the same day as Killer is Dead. I also spy a moderately interesting looking RPG Maker game coming out in May as well. Excellent.

 

[wetflame]

Oh yeah, the new thread format looks great too. Good job MrOrange!

 

[Mavromatis]

FAQ:

I think you can add PC Gaming Wiki on the FAQ, it has most of the answers for most of the games: http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Home

 

[doctorcdcs]

Shannon Tweed's Attack of the Groupies looks interesting


and by interesting i mean barf

 

[Salsa]

this thread is cool but it's not summer/christmas sales thread i'll tell you what

There isn't as much pressure when MrOrange still has the ability to update it.

 

[Twentieth]

Great job on the OP, btw. I wasn't aware Life Goes On was releasing soon.

 

[gabbo]

like ten minutes ago lol

I meant more along the lines of, will it be a regular thing?
Like the OP. Nicely laid out, the 'upcoming games' will be quite helpful in the future

 

[TC McQueen]

Kinda sucks that we couldn't fill out the old thread, but the monthly format does seem like it's the best for SteamGAF.

 

[Salsa]

oh

OH

 

[Jive Turkey]

I wish I could just subscribe to Toma's account

I don't. I couldn't afford it!

 

[Scipius]

Thanks Arthea for SM Ace Patrol Pacific Skies (from the very "short" thread nr. IV).

 

[Vecks]

Brings it inline with the other monthly threads for PSN etc. I don't really see it making a big different tbh. So you have maybe one or two threads for April and it then moves to May etc. No big change, still one platform etc.

Ah, had no idea about other monthly threads, as this is the only megathread I visit.
I will miss seeing the thread reach its natural end.
Ending at the end of the month takes away the surprise.

 

[ChiefofCitadelSecurity]

but it was already monthly before!

I guess you could say that. The threads seemed to always move pretty damn fast.

 

[Nzyme32]

I meant more along the lines of, will it be a regular thing?
Like the OP. Nicely laid out, the 'upcoming games' will be quite helpful in the future

It should be regular from now. The issue is if we will be continuing to grow, and thread length mod limit is reached far before the end of the month, in which case we may have to switch to a biweekly thread. For now this should be perfect and should prevent us from having threads become a bit confusing for newcomers

 

[DaBargainHunta]

Shovel Knight looks great!

 

[thesaucetastic]

dat new thread smell

Is the recommendations the only new thing about the OP? Too lazy to check the last thread

 

[morningbus]

I think we should trim down the title of the monthly thread a bit.

Is Announcements and Updates necessary?

How about "STEAM - 04/2014 - Whatever meme we're beating to death at the moment?"

 

[Salsa]

it's pretty clear that the goal now is to fill this thread with gibberish and reach 'STEAM Announcements & Updates 2014 April 2' before May so it all falls apart

 

[Arthea]

No need to post thank you messages, btw
you are all welcome

and I have a question. It seems there were couple of unclaimed games, now when people know what they are, could they still use the old thread post, or should I repost it here?

edited: ups, tabs are gone, I hope it's possible to understand it still

 

[Terra_Ex]

That felt like the shortest Steam ever. Anyway, I won Magical Diary from Arthea's mystery giveaway but as I already own it, someone else can have it:

Magical Diary -- MB-63161C9264AC1524 - Taken by Blablurn

Thank Arthea and not me.

 

[X05]

Guys, remember that the last topic had 51 pages, and it was started just a WEEK ago.

 

[Grief.exe]

Kinda sucks that we couldn't fill out the old thread, but the monthly format does seem like it's the best for SteamGAF.

We still ended up making quite a large dent into that thread in such a short time period.

I agree with Stump, the first ~500 posts in the old format were just filler, people excited for the new thread. Going to the monthly format will help alleviate that, go from an arbitrary switch to an expected one.

Thanks bro!

 

[Sober]

Alright then, monthly threads it is.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Wow, monthly threads now then? Seems a smart change actually

 

[crazyrabbits]

I can dig it - thread looks great!

Also, TY Arthea for One Way Heroics!

 

[Grief.exe]

What about the history of the thread? Where is your nostalgia?

If I had to make a title suggestion, I would say April 2014 instead of 2014 April. Rolls off the tongue better.

I don't really know about GAF tradition regarding this, but I honestly don't think this would be the best way.
I guess the best way would be temp-banning everyone, but it would also rapidly become the worst.

 

[Salsa]

I agree with mate guy, thread name should be just 'Steam |OT| April 2014 | whatevs'

 

[Last Baron]

The future is here. Now.

 

[X05]

nice new thread and as promised here is what was what. Sorry for a long ass list

Peasant Nobody Supreme Commander

Huh, I thought it was another one.
I already got this, so I guess I'll ask modbot to relist it

how about

[Angel Abaddon]

Liking the idea of a monthly thread, even if it threw me with "Wait, the last thread was over THAT quick "
