I hope Steam changes it so free games you "buy" show up in your library. It's nice to have them tied to my account, but without having them in my library it's not really much different from when they just gave you all of the f2p stuff. And if a game gets removed from the store (like Expendabros will be) I'd own it but I wouldn't be able to redownload it.

I bought the Tribes starter pack way back and it's in mine. Unless you mean game's you've downloaded once from steam that are F2P

Yeah, I like that not every free to play game on Steam is in your library, but it would be nice for the games you've played to be in there, even when they're uninstalled. I really like Path of Exile and wish it was in my library, even though I have it uninstalled for now. They should do this and then add the option to hide games that you've played but don't want to show up in your library anymore.

He's talking about how Free on Demand games add to your game count but aren't added to your library unless you install them/aren't tied to your library unless you buy DLC for them. This is something I figured Valve would fix before moving on from demos to actual, fully-fledged games.

This is something they've been working on since January. It'll allow personalities like TotalBiscuit
or me, I guess
to set up their own recommendations which people will be able to "follow" (like Twitter) and those games will show up in the follower's "Discovery Queue".

There was some talk at one point of this leading to revenue being generated by the curator (a cut of the sale) but it looks like according to the latest intel that this idea has been completely scrapped in favor of a more altruistic "Do this because it'll grow your fanbase elsewhere and because you want people to play good games and not shitty ones and we want you to stop complaining that we changed the homepage to show top sellers instead of new releases."

Now I had the assumption that the curating feature would announce the end of greenlight and anyone could add their games but that doesn't seem to be the case here? Everything is still under Valve right?

Apparently Bioware's new game will be announced today.


Also can't wait to see how EA deals with the Sims 4 fiasco. They'll probably promise some free DLC or whatever to try to win people back

The game has a Free on Demand sub, so the store page's "Play" button activated that. If you go to your account page you should see "Nosgoth Base Game Default Package".

Just played a bit of Age of Mythology. Thought I'd get in a quick game before sleep, and now it's past 4am...

The game is still as addicting as ever.

Is there any possibility of getting in trouble for adding stuff that way? I noticed there's some Tom Clancy's Phantoms DLC on the list that was free, but that costs $9.99 each now.

Played a little bit of Risen 3 (used Spotflux to unlock it early, didn't really want to wait until the 15) and the game isn't half bad.
It feels a bit glitchy here and there and I really dislike the Depth of Field effect in it, but the combat so far is nice, though I've spent most of my time going around grabbing seashells.

I started out playing with the pad, but then changed to KB/M because turning the camera with the pad while on the move didn't work well (at least for me), something that instead works perfectly with KB/M. Too bad there isn't a smart controller selection based on input used, so I have to select to use the pad in the options and once done the KB/M controls are totally off. Wouldn't have minded too much switching seamlessly between the two for combat, at least initially.

seems like, as a general rule, trading cards with anime girls have relatively high value
