You wasted a click since there's no actual downvoting.

If anyone doesn't want the professional farmer DLCs (only the dlcs), i'd trade one of my bundle keys ( http://www.steamtrades.com/forum/5M...ing-t-surgeon-simulatorw-games-i-dont-owngems ) for both dlcs

Do we know how many hours until the Winter sales starts? If it'll be in 7 hours?

All I'll go for this sale is Alien Isolation, Wolfenstein: The New Order and This War of Mine.

 

[jshackles]

The best DLC for one of the worst games on Steam.

is anybody selling Ground Zeroes?

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Driving a forklift is fun. Just not under pressure.

 

[MUnited83]

It's not purchasable yet, and it won't be until the sale begins.

[Freedom = $1.05]

should i sell my tf2 Wolfenstein items now or wait? I fear that prices will drop if GMG or another place puts it on sale.

Thanks. Ah well, guess I gotta play something in the meantime. Maybe get my controller to work with Dark Souls. I have never played Dark Souls.

[Hero Prinny]

Can I continue doing quests in dragon age origins after I beat the final mission or am I asked out? I ask cause I want to go to redcliffe but that's also where I gotta go to start the quest. Idk if it'll be one of those situations where I trigger the quest or it automatically starts itself with a cutscene when I get there

[X05]

I really need to buy Alan Wake and Borderlands 2, hope Steam sale delivers.

ohyou.jpg

That's just the way Valve set up the bidding system. It'll try to keep you in first as long as you have the gems to afford it.

I think.

The way they set up is that you can set up a maximum amount and then it autobids until that maximum is reached (in which case you can increase your bid) or you win the auction. I'm not sure how much is each autoincrease though.

Thanks for reminding me, I'll start stocking on those things that I'll need to survive to play my games one day.

Spoiler

I'm not sure should I laugh or cry, maybe both? (><)

Yeah about that, I'm still undecided which new controller to get, anybody here has both and tried both? on PC I mean.

If you want wireless go with the DS4, otherwise get the one you feel the most comfortable with (either is a great option anyway).

Hi.

What the fucking fuck.

Haha, I think I have enough Pat & Mat.

But are the gem ones cheaper than the

Spoiler

gazillion

ones you got a while back? :O

I'm confused by this region lock thing, did all games on Steam were region locked? So this mean I will not be able to gift people outside of South America?

Well good news, you'd be able to gift to people in Central America and Mexico too!

Spoiler

I'll see myself out

http://www.tcs.cam.ac.uk/interviews/0012301-interview-gabe-newell.html

Oh my sweet Gaben, bring back the innocence of 2011.

The worst thing is that he's totally right, and was one of the few people in any industry that actually got it

I think people have different definitions for what they consider "region locked". To me, I always associated it with the Game not being available in a particular region, rather than being able to purchase it in a region but not transfer it to another.

Am I completely wrong?

Something is region locked when it can't be obtained or used outside of the region where it is available.

Yeah, I'm with you. It's more stricter region pricing than region lock.

GFWL reg-lock is the real bs. I still can't buy MGR or DS.

GFWL is the worst shit ever, and it reminds me that I should act fast and get those games that aren't discounted anymore (as they'll likely be removed) like LP2 and the Colonies Edition.

So... any reason I should wait to craft 5 badges now. I do get holiday cards already ?
Any indication of a new holiday event ? :/
I am in need of gems and I don't want to buy those stupid sacks. Just want to win one auction before it ends.

Yes you get holiday cards, no idea of any special event, although one is probably happening.

"Today we have propped a change that will affect all packages on Steam which will not allow them to be unpacked to an account, if gifted or traded from a lower priced region to a higher priced region."

Does that mean that I can't get games from a Brazilian or Mexican? I'm on Argentina, which is in the same region of those two countries for ACRTAG purposes, but our store prices are higher.

Mexico + Central America + South America = same region.

seems that after burner climax is off the marketplace.

another game to add to the sega petition I think.

That was removed from PSN and XBL as well, obviously a licensing issue like Outrun was... so it's never coming back

Spoiler

I already had it on PS3, forgot to get it on PC

I was just raising the possibility of the game being discounted as high on Steam Seal.
Still a great deal for people who care about DRM-'free' games.

Oh my, X1 is xboned in Japan:

Banzai already

sorry I just had to (><)

everything will be forgiven if Tales come to steam, though

They'll always be Scamco in my heart.

If you have Enhanced Steam installed and want to see the lowest-bid auction items while also having the ability to hide games you own and have continuous scrolling, you can do so with this link:

I've missed the X05 catch up post.

 

[RS4-]

Well, managed to get both Card City Nights and Tiny Barbarian from the auction. I guess I'm done.

 

[Knurek]

Truly, those two games (alongside Magicka maybe) are the white whales of Steam Sales. For some reason they never get discounted, picked up for daily or a community deal...

 

[TheLetdown]

Dirty Bomb is coming to Steam.

From the e-mail they sent, it appears that they're looking at a January launch in that respect.

 

[Maxwood]

Good evening Steamgaf! (or morning/afternoon, wherever you are)
I'm trying to post a giveaway on every night of Hanukkah to wish everyone on Steamgaf happy holiday's. There's a small twist and an extra rule to whoever wins, though.
Please send me the name of your favorite game available for under ten bucks on Steam. Or whatever you want to see given away on the next day. If it stay's under ten bucks, that is. Something that might get especially interesting during the coming Winterseal. Turfster won yesterday's giveaway and chose Thief II. So here it is.

Instructions for participants:
I am giving away a Steam key. To enter this giveaway, send a PM to ModBot with any subject line. In the body, copy and paste the entire line from the message below containing the game you want to enter for. Confused? Watch this GIF tutorial or ask for help.

ModBot Basics:
- I really appreciate thank you messages, but please send them to me (Maxwood, not ModBot!) via PM instead of in thread.
- Do not trade keys you win off-site to enrich yourself. Don't try to claim games you have no interest in collecting or playing. Don't claim games to give them to friends off-site.
- If the key is already taken you will not receive a reply. Replies may take a minute or two.

Rules for this Giveaway:
- If you are a lurker you are not eligible for this giveaway. You need five or more posts in either the current Steam thread or the previous one to be eligible
- This giveaway is a raffle. The winners will be selected by random draw 3 hours after the draw was created. Any games not claimed after that point will be given away first come first serve.



Thief II: The Metal Age -- MB-6AC3445D0F1C7514 - Taken by Darth Kupi. 9 entrants total.

I hope this different kind of giveaway get's apreciated.
Even if it doesn't; whoever you are, wherever you're reading this: happy holiday's!

 

[Blak_Status]

What's the point of hanging on to keys if ACRTAG is applied to everything now?

 

[Ruruja]

Good evening Steamgaf! (or morning/afternoon, wherever you are)

So the winner of today's chooses their favourite game for tomorrow's giveaway (which they will probably not win). Oh Maxwood, you are truly evil.

I've missed the X05 catch up post.

I had like 120 quotes selected from earlier in the thread, but had to restart my PC and for some reason they went missing on reopening Chrome

Truly, those two games (alongside Magicka maybe) are the white whales of Steam Sales. For some reason they never get discounted, picked up for daily or a community deal...

Now I know what I'll vote for in the community deals!

 

[Atraveller]

Wow, people are already shitting on female leads in the comment section. YT comment section truly is a cesspool.

 

[Panda Rin]

yeah Life is Strange is probably day one for me pending some initial impressions. Seems to be a game up Dontnod's alley considering Remember Me's concept was great, but was bogged down by its combat.

 

[Kurt Russell]

Mexico + Central America + South America = same region.

So the new region locks don't affect that? Good to know

 

[Zeknurn]

This is great news. Best arcade shooter is coming to Steam.

It would be a day one for me as well... but episodic release

 

[ViviOggi]

Looks like Dontnod are playing to their strengths this time around, as someone who detested their first effort Life Is Strange intrigues me. Episodic formats can fuck right off though, really makes me want to hold off until a good deal comes around.

 

[Knurek]

This is great news. Best arcade shooter is coming to Steam.

Weird, you weren't commenting on Ketsui coming to Steam.
I believe you must have misread...

 

[Armoured Priest]

Driving a forklift is fun. Just not under pressure.

I played that game already...it was called Shenmue.


*ducks*

Spoiler

For what its worth, I liked and still like Shenmue. Just couldn't resist.

edit: beaten

 

[Deitus]

Wow, people are already shitting on female leads in the comment section. YT comment section truly is a cesspool.

Yeah, I saw that. A game having a female lead = feminisim, and feminism = bad apparently. And here I was hoping that if I just ignored gamergate long enough that it would just go away. Once again reminding me why I shouldn't read Youtube comments.

--
The game looks interesting, both visually and thematically, and I like the character designs even if the hair tech is a bit weak. But from that brief trailer, I hope it's not going to have the same issues as Telltale games in that character animations are all janky messes, so anything other than a close-up of people's faces looks jarring and awful. I mean I'm not one to obsess over visuals, but in a game so focused on character interactions, having characters move like actual people goes a long way to improve storytelling, but Telltale is more concerned about iPad sales sadly.

It's hard to say if that will be the case here. Most of the trailer looked fine in that regard, but there were a couple points where I though "That can't possibly be the walking animation can it?" That could just be early footage that will be fixed in the final version though.

Can someone link the site again where all auctions where listed? I wanted to search if a game I want was in an auction.

thanks!
