Most of the SMT games have party wipes like that in them, so I wasn't really phased by it. Navigation could have been handled better, especially since most western players wouldn't really know about the local geography.
I could justify the $50 because of the mini-cd and the artbook/early guide, since that stuff probably cost a pretty penny to print, and the FExSMT credit deal added to it; the digital version should have been $40 at launch though. It's not nearly as disgusting to me as the Persona Q standard edition price. Half a deck of tarot cards being worth $10 extra my ass.
That's why you should rarely leave Steamgaf and off topic side joke threads.
Sony conference thread was like a comments section on a livestream earlier. Does my head in with people going, "Nobody cares about FIFA", "YAWN, more SPOATS", "Wow, they've only shown garbage so far" etc.
Sometimes you think NeoGAF is different and more mature than other places, then you realise it's just SteamGAF that is.

I thought it was interesting. My biggest complaint about SMT IV was that there was no item that vastly increased the fusion accident rate so you could get those heroes that are only accessible through accidents. Mind you, it's not that important when the game doesn't even give you anything for completing the compendium (and what's up with THAT, anyway? Oh excuse me, I thought I was playing SMT!)

Is that conclusion PORTAL 2 IS FROG FRACTIONS 2?!?
Might as well wait for the 800 series at this point.
A few rumors are putting up an ~October launch and aggressively priced.
Ehh my biggest complaints where the lack of the style of dungeons I came to love from Nocturne and even Strange Journey. Call me crazy but I always liked the dungeon crawling aspects of the main SMT series with the damage tiles, invisible walls, and teleporting puzzle tiles. I liked IV in it's own way, but yeah I agree that the no endurance stat and "smirk" system tended to pretty much make battles one sided in who it was gonna favor.
Agreed, it's gonna be very soon that we start seeing it, and at that we know the 700 series might start to get a bit cheaper once the 800 comes out. My brother is already planning to buy into the 800 series and sell me his 780 for whatever I can sell my 770 for, so I'm pretty excited to see the 800 series come in myself lol.

Hmh I'm pretty sure I have three new games on my account but none that I see in my library.The number in my profile just went up suddenly.
Anybody know what this is? I was at 99, went to 101

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.
Some more screenshots from the v6 store update, for those interested. These are all from the app page:
I honestly think it's shaping up nicely, but it's pretty overwhelmingly blue. Also after pouring over the CSS myself I think they're definitely taking some cues from Enhanced Steam more or less wholesale. I haven't really decided yet if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing. I'm hoping for a $150-$200 card that's roughly equal to the current 770s, but I'm not real optimistic. Video Card development has dropped off a cliff the last few years. Guess I can't complain that my $160 card I bought four and half years ago still does fine, but it's pretty sad when I'm willing to spend some money on an upgrade and nothing is a substantial enough to really be worth it.

So my Steam library has decreased by one since yesterday. Is there a way to find out what game has disappeared since there is nothing in my account history?

And neither do I... Although I suppose it was revealed at MS's E3 conference to begin with, right?
Trying to investigate it, I stumbled upon the "Multiverse" video. Soylent Green made of lobsters had me almost fall from my chair.
Scratch that, I actually fell from it. The guys at Valve are nuts. But what's on one ofthe monitors, during the employee panoramic? HL2?

Damn son...
They nicked one of my favourite feature of enhanced Steam.
Did Valve ever give a reason not to hire you? Or is it because you are not a game dev as most of their staff are jack of all trades types.

Uh, why do I have extra TF2 hats in my inventory? I haven't played TF2 in years.
Is it related to my use of idlemaster?
EDIT: Actually, they're all Bioshock Infinite related?

Does it have an 'add all DLC to cart' button as well?

Maybe you now get new ones without starting TF2 and you had some left that were not already in your inventory.
It's doing weird shit for me.
I've got empty not tradable not marketable tiles in my tf2 items.
Good thing the maintenance is coming up in an hour.

I don't really think there's anything wrong with implementing the features ES implemented (most of them are pretty logical, the whole reason ES exists is because it's kind of astonishing that these features aren't in basic Steam). Even in terms of the visual cues, most of them are basically some of the more logical ways of doing stuff. Steam should have had selective highlighting and hiding for a long time. I also don't think they ought to be obligated to hire jshackles because he did it first, just as I don't think they need to hire the SteamDB guys or the backpack.tf guys or anyone else who helped grow Steam by building on it.
On the other hand, I think a lot of these people probably would be pretty decent hires and I think these kinds of products are absolutely something it'd make sense to take into account when doing hiring.

I do agree with you. My kneejerk reaction was to be kinda pissed, just because I know how long jshackles has been working to get hired on. But honestly, yeah, a lot of this stuff does need to just be in Steam natively. Personally, I think I'd be pretty proud that they took my open-source work and implemented it into their product. If anything I'd think that looks even better on a resume or an interview than just making the extension itself does. Not only did I make this, but Valve thought my work was good enough to actually go and add it in themselves. Y'know?
