But it prompts me for a key when I boot it -- it's not going to have any sort of Dark Souls level meltdown where if I'm not signed in, I can't save?

JaseC, you know what to do. If only for a week.

I like the way you think.
I just picked it up off the Amazon bargain bin last week.
Fallout 3 has basically completely optional GFWL integration. The game works perfectly and without any issues even if you don't put the GFWL key.

Ok -- cool, thanks!
I've been trying to make sure games that need keys have them and that I play/register all my GFWL now before the service dies for legacy purposes if they never get patched.
I have one goal on Steam, and that's to get the original Mafia even if I have to pay $100-200 someday.

But Fahrenheit isn't a good game =p
I've been on Win8.1 since January (coming from Win 7 bootcamped on a Mac) and I'm not noticing anything. But then again, my previous computer was crap, so if the mouse moved weird I've always blamed my specs, and so I'm kinda used to these things.

They released a hotfix that fixes a bunch of popular games like Deus Ex. Don't know if anything else happend but I haven't heard any complaints since then.
PS Going by my friends-leaderboard Goat Sim has sold at least 250000 times. Nice.

I haven't really noticed any problems on Win8/8.1.
It's actually pretty good. You just have to stop playing before the second half of it starts
Family sharing and piracy counts to the leaderboars too

Pirated copies add to the Steam-integrated leaderboards? Then the number should be higher imo.

You should probably stop playing it as soon as the giant fleas attack you in the office.

thx for the answers
(@corrosivefrost, it was specific to .1, a lot of people complained after upgrading from 8)
Hmmm, I'm not sure if I'm on 8.1 or not now -- I very well might be, as most of the updates are applied on my PC (I would let them auto apply, but it keeps trying to replace the SCP DS3 custom BT driver and I don't want it to do that -- unfortunately, I haven't found a way to do as old windows update allowed and disable that update from ever applying.
I need Fahrenheit as well. Good you mentioned it.Mine is getting Second Sight and Indigo Prophecy
I disapprove of this post.
I support this statement.
Thanks for Tropico.

Fahrenheit's first half was great. Second half was terrible and stupid.
I'd even argue that only the first scene was good. Incidentally, it also was in the demo, which was what made me buy the full game back in the day.
Well, if you pretend the second half doesn't exist at all, it make it goodThis makes a game not good
I'm almost completely sure, yes. The game is steamworks and that seems to not be patched out of the game. I played the game in a friend's house a few days ago, pirated version, and the game starts automatically with the steam overlay and it even showed up on his "recent game activity" on his profile.
I might have played that demo quite a few dozens of times. The sheer amount of different outcomes and details was mind-blowing.

I'm going to need to see the receipts on that one.

If they allow pre-loading for Dark Souls II...I will be very, very happy.
Actually, that might be terrible for me since I'll have lab from 8 to 5:20 that Friday.
When it turns into the Matrix I couldn't stop laughing for a good 10mins.

70 keys is right in your wheelhouse then.
Its too deep for you to comprehend.
Maybe so with that master of deep, insightful and thoughtful writing and storytelling that is David Cage.
It's no longer on his recent game activity so I guess I can't show you any receipts. It definitely happened though, and if steam overlay and recent game activity were on, I guess one could assume that the leaderboards were working too.
He isn't so bad. He just needs to hire someone to yell "STOP" when he starts getting too crazy.
And then you find yourself in a nondescript office building dodging giant fleas and thinking where the hell things went wrong. Yeah.
I honestly don't mind him going crazy as I find it entertaining. That 'matrix' moment made me laugh a lot but it also made the game a lot more entertaining too. Hell I enjoyed Heavy Rain as well. I just find him to have his head stuck way to up his own arse about how good his games are. I'll get round to playing Beyond sometime as well.
Mayan > matrix.
Yeah, I talked with him last month, but I think I'm gonna try talk to him about a deal again.

GermanGAF: Blackguards for 23,97€
After kinda hating Heavy Rain I enjoyed Beyond, some parts like the ending(s) or the whole native american stuff are stupidly awkward but it has its moments.
I was thinking about removing the background. Great minds.

Beyond:Two Souls was actually good (apart from the
whole bit with the Indians that kinda dragged on too long
He needs to stop reusing themes, though.
I mean, half of Heavy Rain referenced the same themes as Fahrenheit =p
Yeah, Beyond Two Souls has the best writing of all his games. Though, maybe because of that, the game suffers on it's choices and consequences mechanic, which it was the most entertaining thing I liked about Heavy Raina and Indigo Prophecy.
Regarding theme, I wish he used the ones he shows on his tech demos. Kara was wonderful, and so was The Dark Sorcerer.

The new content of the Advanced Edition of FTL is so good.

So, the guy plays a pirated version of a Steamworks game while being logged in Steam. Isn't that reckless?

How long am I supposed to wait for playfire rewards? I have stuff that's showed up, but no monies added since the 3rd. I'm assuming that's what the check mark means.

Can it get any more creepy?
It's the opposite for me. I think Cage's best writing was in Heavy Rain, even though it's still not very good, and his worst is in Beyond. Heavy Rain and Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy both had some semblance of potential, at least.
...I sort of understand why some people liked the burrito game now.
It's so good. It really streamlined the game and made it even better. Even small touches like showing where each dot on the map leads makes FTL feel even better than it already was.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I got my Steam copy from registering a retail key.
Yep, it is, you can use the retail cdkey to activate the game on steam. Be aware that the game is completely dead at this point so this is just a +1 to your library
