Oh great. I share a birthday with one of SteamGAF's most popular personalities and he gives away 28 games. Well, I guess that affords me some measure of freedom, I suppose. :)

Hold up, I'm in Tesco right now and under new releases for PS4 is Tropico 5. That's a bit out there and late.

Anyway today is Ys day.

So have you asked him why and what would need to change to make it possible? Not that I imagine they'll be very forthcoming but if they don't want to be asked time and time again a simple response could bring a lot of clarity to the situation.

Arent there already some paid Portal 2 mods?

Not that I'm aware of. It did launch with a cosmetic shop that... Was never actually updated or anything.

Jebus, the market has spoken, there is no need to shame the customer.

It's entirely accurate though. The post on the Bethesda blog did mention that a modder made more in one day of paid sales than he did after years of donations.

Most people who were asking for a donation option instead were never actually going to pay at all.

So I can at least expect 70% off the Steam May the 4th sale.
Click to expand...

This site has an extra 15% off coupon (1ST-BIRTHDAY-15OFF) which brings the price down to just over $5. I don't think Steam will beat that price by much, if at all.

Unfortunately for Xseed, I'm not buying Ys until I get my Trails SC
ya, I went there. It's from desperation, I don't see any other way!

I'll pick it up at some sale or another anyhow, I'm not that resistant.

This one would be a paid mod for Portal 2. There were some others too IIRC.

And happy bday Milamber and someguyinahat.
Click to expand...

Oh, yeah. Sorry I didn't really think about standalone mods, my mistake. Yeah, I do remember a few of them. Most are free though, but there may be several paid. It's the same with HL2 though, or is going to be anyway.

And with this I think it's more understandable. Charging 5 euros for an actual standalone game? That's not at all a rip off. Charging 5 euros for fishing animations in a singleplayer game? That's a rip off. :p

I wanna do dis

Buuuut Valve's changes seem to have been effective, despite using CSGOLounge a lot for trading and such lately, aswell as selling expensive shit on the market, I haven't had more than one bot invite this past week :/... I used to get 10+ a day.

RIP Steambot Friend. I will miss u 4evs

edit: Happy birthday dirty animu Milamburu and also that there guy in a hat person.

and you know only one of those DLCs will be something that's not a challenge pack and, at its best, it'll be ok, like the Harley and Mr Freeze DLCs were.

Actually, that Mr freeze one kinda sucked

Happy Birthday someguyinahat!

I don't know about Arkham Origins' DLC, but Arkham City's extra content was quite disappointing.

Quite a lot of comments in response to the Workshop announcement post are in favour of paid mods if payments are optional. I can see Valve taking that into consideration in the future.
Click to expand...
Agree. Only a small percentile will pay though. I think there should be some incentives to pay/donate but without splitting playerbase.
Zeknurn said:
How do we know that the market has spoken? It's impossible to know if the people that complained were representative of the community as a whole. All I know is that there were plenty of game developers and modders that were very positive about the current implementation.
Click to expand...
Valve & Pubs failed miserably to prove the benfits of that new system.
There's no one else to be shamed for this other than them.
The fact that instead the parties pushing paid mods, gamers among each other had to convince the benefits shows that it was poorly planned.
Things can get better, always and there is a place for paid content. But it's not like gamers are in a shitty situation with the current mod-systems.

By attempting to address concerns, they can find out if they're on the right track and apply that to XV as a whole. At least, that's what I've taken from all this~

Remember people criticizing how typical "JRPG" characters are when they were first revealed.
Apparently western gamers do actually like it most.

Eh. Trailer was somehow not that good. Wasn't expecting this. Screenshots and the teaser were really good.
What a twist. I was not that interested in Mad Max but the last trailer wowed me. With JC3 it's the opposite, hah. I am sure the game will be fun though. Avalanche knows how to make fun action open-worlds.

Hey Stump which Dark Matter were you after? The one with the Poochie title card ending or the other one I have no idea about? As I've just seen the former in a bargain bin, retail copy, that redeems on Steam.

Eh I don't know why I'm trying to fight it but I'll pick this up at 40-50% off. Although Mordor's SP burnt me out a little. Sure it was content rich but the content was rubbish fluff or soulless story add one.
