It's progressing very slow despite how it and Steamboxes got hyped unrealistically at the time but Valve spent a lot of manpower and money into that. Can't believe it was a quick decision you just put out there on a whim.
I liked it a lot when it was released, but that was very long ago, I'm not entirely sure how it plays today.

What's the chance of any of those getting approved?

These look all really useful! Especially the quick scrolling through screenshots.

The notes thing would be amazing if Valve ever implemented it. Really useful.
I only bought them because I want FFXV on PC asap lol
BTW, Square, please release Lightning Returns already so I can have the whole Fabula Nova Crystallis series on PC
If we could change their mind with buying final fantasy games on steam, they would already had released Lightning returns.
It's Valve, the chance is zero >.<

True. I didn't see the big deal about Thomas was Alone but it was well made at least.
Most of these look pretty cool. Hope some of them get approved.

Well it isn't out yet. Valve gonna Valve in terms of actually working on it to make it interesting to people other than current Linux users. It seems pretty much a "just in case we have no where else to go" development.
Probably. Steam Music is a huge annoyance to me right now. I would like to use Steam for music and podcasts while I play, or even while I have Steam open since it is far better than itunes, where my music is currently stuck. Yet they pretty much stopped developing the features around a month before they launched the player and library feature, and only for mp3 files. Since 2013 though they have been talking about our "favourite" Music, TV Shows and Movies being on Steam. Indeed during GDC they pushed that notion again as something yet to come on their Universe page:
Hope they are holding it off for a good reason. The more options the better as far as I am concerned, but they should at least try to keep development rolling than leave them dead

I was actually kidding, but from what we see from the recent years of Valve is that they release something, hype it up sometimes and then we never actually get what was promised.
There are lots of examples. Steam Music is one of the most barebones players.
The Steam trading cards never evolved at all, despite what was promised with different "seasons", binders etc.
The client itself still has old bugs from years ago.
The steamchat doesnt really have an invisible mode. Only "fake invisible", which is offline, but you cant chat with someone if you set that.

can they really get away with releasing a controller, an OS, and a streaming box and not have something as simple as web key redemption available yet?
At least integrate into the mobile apps is security is the major concern

All of those seems to be really useful, thoguh ValvE really adding all that seems like such a slim chance.
ohh we're so far away from that
i thought it was really well put together and was a pretty touching game
That is so good. Volvo pls.
Yeah it's sad but that is built into the games physics which means that it will probably stay 30 fps locked even on the PC version on FF type-0 HD.

seems all the decent dark-souls-like stuff from the WiiU version of Zombi have been stripped out for the recent port:
it's like they just wanted it to bomb on as many platforms as possible

Valve really need to go through all of Steam's existing features and improve them instead of adding new broken features.
The refund is probably the best feature that's not broken or something, although it broke other features instead. ie the delay of card drops
warren is hitler
i know that can't be unlocked
what a bummer ( its not like my laptop could handle it anyway )

Surely the PC port of Zombi won't have any of the framerate issues or missing textures. :3

Valve are like teenagers. They jump into something with big energy, then after a while (can be a short amount of time or longer) they move onto something else and then the same happens with that, and the thing afterwards and so on.

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.
Sadly, the chances of any of these happening is effectively 0. Most of these features have been begged for by users for years.
Hell, even when I first started Enhanced Steam in 2012 I got a lot of these as feature requests.
hey jshackles, can you kindly remind me how to run one game in idlemaster that has no cards? I remember you told it once, but I managed to forget.
It sucks that the biggest gaming platform doesn't care feature requests and only add stuff that nobody asked for.

Fingered is pretty buggy in regards to character placement. It definitely interferes with my ability to play the game.

ALMOST got through LiS Ep 4 before I had to go to bed; just about to go to the Vortex Party. I'm guessing more shit goes down than earlier in the episode, maybe a whale comes out of the sky Phantom Pain style.
Happy birthday!

When I read the link's name, I thought, man, Valve's gonna know ahead of time.
And lo and behold, they did.

I know I already wished you an early happy birthday, but now I'm going to do it again. Cuz that's how I roll.
Happy Birthday!

Amazing.
This reminds me, this was maybe the second time I read something on reddit. That's weird, right?

Right, let's give this Fingered thing a go.

I'm inclined to agree.
Oh no, 30fps, call the framerate police! Square-Enix needs to pay for this travesty against the #PCMR.
All the online stuff doesn't really seem like a loss to me.
Totally unplayable now. People should boycott this peasantry.
RE earlier posts about desired client upgrades, the two things I'd love to see are an overhaul of the library (move to tags and filtering rather than categories) and the ability to verify the contents of a product key before adding it (e.g. checking to make sure a key is unused and contains X before giving it away).

I'm not surprised you received such requests
Seriously though, it really is amazing how stagnant Valve has been towards its Steam client and certain features. I've only been on Steam very recently, so learning about their inner workings amazes me how shambolic their priorities are.

You said fingered so the first thing I thought of was Freddy got Fingered. That's the best scene from the movie.

I am just now going through the thread and seeing it's a game on steam with a weird price.
$1.87 without discount is pretty funny.
