Money or cards/badges, your decision.

You can sell them for Steam Wallet cash or buy the missing cards to get a badge for that game. Which gives you a wallpaper, emoticon, coupon for random game, and XP to add to your steam level.

I am Steam Level 13
I only managed to find 13 of the Goat Trophies in Goat Simulator
Corrosivefist has the highest score among my Steam Friendlist in Flappy Goat at 13 Points
Is this a sign?
Good on ya mate, I can always wait for it to go for $1 on groupees or bundles XP.

Valve told them to put the Skullgirls items they had made for bakers on the workshop, which for promo items is basically sending them to die.
Half-Life 13 confirmed.
It doesn't help that the levels seem to be longer in Reaper Of Souls so during Act V near 6am I kept trying to get to the end of the level/dungeon I was on but was falling asleep by the end. Had to just force myself to go to bed
But...but.... dat loot!
There's way, way more Legendary's (understandable with the AH gone) and is a bit more fun poking around every dungeon as they are at least rewarding now. Crusader is a very untypical Blizzard under powered new character though and the cool downs after the beta are just bullshit compared to the others.
One thing it has done though is get me excited for Grim Dawn when it comes out of early access and I'm half eyeing up Van Helsing. Now if only I could get over the first few hour hump of PoE.

Yes. You need a higher Steam level to find true happiness.
After looking through my GOG library, there is one thing all the games have in common: each game is like "super long" and will take dozens of hours to finish. Which means that I will never finish a single game in my GOG library ever. Only "small" games are Riddick, Fahrenheit, The Longest Journey and Dreamfall.
This has happened to me the past 2-3 months. It just happens once a week I can check out my badges page.

If I want a badge I buy the rest but most of the cards are getting sold. Or, if the card prices are still high (let's say over 0.20), I sell immediately and rebuy later for the badge.
Yeah, pretty much, unless badges are of concern. If you have any cards pertaining to a licensed game, such as NASCAR 2013, you could hold on them until the game in question has been pulled and wait for the value of the cards to increase (but you'd be waiting quite a while).

, Blade and Soul rules the thread.It's a shame there was no westen release.
It's a gamble that rarely pays off. I flirted with it last year and barely made a profit.

Keep in mind that the higher your Steam Level, the more people you can add to your friendlist and the higher your chance of getting Booster packs.
Booster packs offer 3 cards from a game you played which you can sell for some extra Gaben Bucks.
However if you've played games and have like a gajillion cards in your Inventory, start by selling off your duplicate cards and Foils. After that see if you can make any badges, and if there are badges you don't want to make, just sell them.
Do note that you only get cards from playing the games. Well technically you can have it run for 30 minutes or more and you'll get the cards too.
Foils aren't tied to your Steam level; you're thinking of booster pack drops. But I still think that's a little while lie designed to encourage crafting.

hey guys, I'm having problems making run Ninja Blade in Windows 8.1, has any of you make it run? as I launch it the process gets stuck in the background but nothing happens, no window at all, nothing
forgot to say I'm using a GTX 780 in case it helps

Thanks for Super Hexagon, zbarron!
D'oh, yeah, that one, haha.
I don't sell mine at all. I craft badges, which gives me discount coupons and backgrounds to sell. It's a losing game but it really doesn't cost me that much and I think it's fun. Getting a sweet 90% coupon is always a little rush of excitement!
I just misread that as "the hentai=strength mechanic". o_o
Paging Milamber... >.>
Hahaha while Jase collects games fanto collects money. To be honest seeing we're 3 and a half month away from Summer Seal time I'd sit on it personally. Well unless a licensed game is about to be yanked.

I disagree with your theory. I am almost level 80 and I get a lot more booster pack drops then my low level friends.
About how often do you get them?
ok, beat the banner saga, basically got lucky you can cheese the second stage by forcing turns out of the big boss by having him counterattack you (in which he doesn't heal), and he just took his time killing the useless dudes while mage finished him off.
but jeez, that wasn't fun at all, and the ending is such a
wouldn't call it abrupt as there's a good amount of buildup, really. it's not even that bad, it's just that the fight before it is based on such an annoying mechanic it really sours the whole thing.
and there goes the game, pretty disappointed with it, specially cos it should've been much better. all the other elements are there, but the combat man, the combat's a mess. and it's like, sometimes it works and it feels great, the animations and the sound effects are all really cool and there's a really satisfying feeling when after shredding all his armor you take some poor dude's str to like -7 or something. but all the other times it's just awkward, you start inventing strategies like leaving a bunch of 1 str enemies alive so they waste enemy turns and then finish them off with your shitty dudes so they can level up because, you know, your best varl might fall off a cliff and you might be left with a bunch of useless archers. and you know that's the roguelike/oregon trail thing i guess but usually those types of games (good ones at least) have tight enough gameplay or enough replayability that you don't really mind.
i dunno, i've read somewhere stoic isn't interested in changing the combat mechanics but i think they're just bad. some things work. the horn and willpower mechanic is alright, that could stay. the armor/health thing is fine too, as long as health isn't tied so tightly to damage. but they gotta make up some actual stats and make characters actually earn experience for more than kills and they need to make the game less about cheesing it and more about actual tactics. i haven't played that many turn based fantasy games but i know this game could use more enemy and npc types, and more abilities and stats. give us more items and deeper customization, let us choose skill upgrades and all that crap. add back and side damage, allow dudes to guard to temporarily raise armor, i dunno, make some shit up, because this ain't workin'.
well at least i'm on the credits so i don't regret backing this

Maybe 1 pack every two weeks, if that. It's not like I'm rolling in Booster packs but I have lower level friends that have never even received one.

Hooray, 1000 games now. Lords of Shadow 2 became the 1000th game
Is it on sale somewhere or did you splurge a bit?

What game is this?

CorrosiveFIST? hrmmm...
Use them as a backup in case HL3 is being available as a pre-order in the future and Im out of money that time.
I'm at level 45 and in a few cases have noticed that I receive boosters less often than those at a lower level. I'm not fussed, though, since I don't care about the profile meta-game and only recently begun levelling up a bit to increase my friend list size as I was just a handful away from hitting my ceiling of 500.
I know it's not a big title but I just want to see if I'm doing this giveaway the right way at first and I also want to give back to the community.

Yours are fists that corrode your victims whenever you strike them. Causing them to suffer a rotting agnoizing death.
corrosive fist sounds dirty
a pretty game with cool decisions and awesome lore and good characters that unfortunately drowns when fording the gameplay river
sorry, the banner saga
