It would certainly be a brave decision for them to not release on Steam.

Being skeptical is fine. But saying it's turning into a regular controller is silly. If they ditch the left trackpad for another analog stick or 4 button diamonds, then people can start saying that
Valve is trying to unify two disparate control methods via their controller. If this ends up anything like attempts at unified console/PC UI, it will not satisfy either camp while making the experience worse for all.
I remain firmly entrenched in my skepticism.
Is that confirmed? Because the only reason to do that is to avoid in-game microtransaction cuts to Valve... which I wouldn't have thought Elite was in favour of.

Hatred removed from Steam greenlight.

Yeah, devs said that they'll contact GOG and if they don't support them devs will sale the game directly on their site!
I believe it's Block N Load
It's out today, and there's no word on a Steam release.
Was this in a bundle? How the hell does more than 30 people on my friendslits own it already?
Is that a D-pad? If so I might actually have some interest in that thing. It doesn't exactly look like a practical shape for a D-pad though.
I asked that question three times today, but no one wanted to answer it here.
My GFWL key was already associated with my Steam account so I think answer is no.

Sweet. So you can go back to any previous level and tool around? Fantastic news. Pretty sure I missed some things in the first apartment.
If you bought the game directly from Steam, the key will work.
If you bought the game somewhere else, it won't work.

Which one? The left? That's still a trackpad, but with markings/guides for movement/positioning or something.

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.
Looks like Enhanced Steam is working again.
Yeah, sorry about that guys. I just woke up and saw it was having problems.
If you bought directly from steam. If you already activated using GFWL key, it would be same you used to activate with.
(Keys from Amazon $2.50 sale year ago or so were GFWL-keys, that activated on Steam).
Oh, lame. Then I'm back to having no use for this thing.

Pre-order cancelled.
Alright guys, thanks! Will try to give away it here a bit later, warning ofc that it may be a chance it doesn't work :hehe P
Edit. @madjoki Yeah, it was from Steam, haven't used the GFWL key, so I guess it'll work.
Yep. I already saw what it was. Seems that the devs had been offering free keys to the beta.

Yea, was going to let you know. Just wanted to make sure that's what we were talking about.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
I really should lurk and post some more in the Steam threads. I feel like everytime something PC gaming related happens I find out when it's already old news.
And some of the people here are pretty nice.
Some of them.
So, here's one for some of them, or the other one.
...
Aaand ModBot's still not responding. No problem, that just means things are going a bit differently. Here's hoping it's appreciated;
I'm giving away a steamgift called The Walking Dead: Season 2.
If your interested; post something about your favorite steamgame that's available for under ten bucks. I don't care how, make a drawing, do what you want.
The most interesting or creative entry get's the game, and I'll give away the title he or she posted about tomorrow.
I'll select an entry in three hours.
Happy Hanukkah!

Got 11 sacks now and have a bunch of trading cards for sale, some friends gave me 50 dupes of their cards and now I have them on the market.
I've been saving some keys that I got helping a friend, but since I live in Brazil, things are cheap enough down here, so I rarely ever trade them. They're only useful when Russian traders list things below cost (some crazy pricing mistake or really low discounts on games and the seller doesn't want to make a buck).
Since the Russian pricing equality rumour started, and key prices are somewhat reasonable, I decided to sell all of them ahead of the curve - as more people hears about it, they'll want to dump their keys, which will bring the overall price down and, if it actually becomes a reality, key prices will probably plummet.
Sadly, I listed two keys at the wrong price (missed the order in which I typed the numbers), which means I got a dollar less from each of them than all the other keys, which means that any profit I would have from the keys was consumed by this mistake.
I didn't lose any money (managed to trade a game for keys for half the price it was in my local Store), but I didn't make any either.
I hate the stock market. I know Salsa liquidated all his gems, but I believe we'll see another price bump today - gems already went down in price from yesterday to today, so this might be the last night.

Preach it.
Achievements are a perfect excuse to play a fresh character.
I rang the top bell yesterday.
I expect prices to increase a lot before auctions ends thursday, with people trying to secure last bids, before crashing to very low value (0.3-ish).

People bought like 90% of all backgrounds and emotes available on the market and turned them into gems.
Bundlestars has Lords of the Fallen 40% off, Enemy Front 75% off, Stalker CoP 65% off, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 75 % off
Am I one of them?

Really? that's insane if true.
With the badge crafting I've done over the last three sales, just the crap in my own inventory turned into 50k gems. I'd have sold them before but most of them have been 0.03-0.04e, unsellable or not worth the trouble.

I am in the 10 percent that didn't, I guess. I finished my Spelunky and Rogue Legacy badges and kept the backgrounds I got for both.
Sold the emoticons because they were ones I didn't want, though.

4 to 6 solid hours for the main content and a couple more hours, always depending on how you take on Kalameet. It's not too long but the bosses are some of the best around!

Is it worth buying backgrounds and emoticons for gems now?
Yes, they're going up. They are randomly stalling a bit right now due to psychological effects (the price is right at the 1 euro mark), but there's no reason for them to go down at this point, and the trade volume has increased 50% so things can move fast when they get going.

I wonder if thanks to all the crafting some old Summer Sale items will become rare and rise in price.
If it's worth it, someone has already done it at this point.

The free market will take care of such concerns. Or you could use a calculator.
Gems from one owning backgrounds/emotes will always be worked to be balanced against buying Gem Sacks from every participant in the respective element of the market.
I don't think they'll go higher than $1.30 or so. The auctions end in about 48 hours, and I expect bids to go up (assuming that's why people bought gems). At the same time other people who haven't accumulated as many gems might give up on auctions or just want to get rid of gems via selling.
I could be way off, though.
Not sure if anyone posted them already, but there are some quick comparisons of PC & PS4 MGSV:GZ that were posted. I think you have to right click the vids and choose loop to make proper use of them. Looks good.
WHAT?! That's a nice surprise. I wonder why rFactor 1 and not 2?
I already own it so doubt I'll get it though unless they add achievements and stuff.
AO is really good i hope that GTA V will get some kind of AO on PC.
