You and me both. I still picked it up, though. At $8.25. I haven't paid above $4.xx since the Star Wars bundle in February. Still a deal, though, imo.

Diablo 3 is probably way up there for me as well. I've got 700 hours in Rocksmith 2014 though, and I know I pumped well over 1000 hours into Rock Band 3 on the 360 back in the day.
Buy a Vita.

You just have to figure out what games interest you, and also being part of a community like SteamGAF can help as we can tell you what's what in different areas you may not have expected.
For example, I'm an absolute horror enthusiast as I'm sure I've made clear time and time again. I can recommend games generally, but if someone came to me personally I'd just learn a bit of what they're looking for in a horror game, or what games they liked/disliked in the genre, and some favorites in general, and recommend what I think they'd be interested in.
And like me, there's others here who are always up to bring attention to some game or another, I even play games that aren't horror games sometimes. There's been so many Steam Games released recently, a lot of them get overlooked, so its times like these little communities like this are nice to raise awareness of titles we might not have noticed on our own.

Agree and want to add. When anxiety evolves into a phobia, it leads to behavior of avoiding situations facing fears. Panic attacks truly are a horrific experience, it's only understandable. But at some point one might realize that phobia dictates lifestyle and prohibits many things. It can also very well lead to a very secluded and destructive lifestyle where one is no longer capable of working, traveling, social interactions, "living normally". In those cases people very well can decide to face their horrific phobia, knowing very well how terrible an experience they are going into, at the prospect of changing their whole future into a more pleasant and worthwhile direction. I'm not of the idea that forcing people into this is productive though and one has to make that decision by themselves so that the will to pull through the very tiring and exhausting confrontation therapy. I don't wish anyone to go through such things as phobia. It is not a nice experience.
No.

Since the BTA is $9.27 right now, I'm even considering getting the $15 tier. I'm just not 100% sure if I'll enjoy Total War
Lists you say? Sorry doc dogg.
FreshVeggie probably has a million hours in Dark Souls.
I don't think that Batman there is legit. I idled the cards out of it with the old method before idlemaster, so it's higher than it would be normally. I also cut away RE Revelations that I've never played, only idled in.
If I cut it away Batman, the actual 10th on the list would be Deadly Premonition, which I actually need to finish at some point.
Everything else checks out though. Even Hitman Absolution.

What did we say about decisions around here?

THis is the thread where most of the posters have Bad Rats, 'decisions' isn't something to throw around so casually like that :V

Don't know, just play on occasion =)
I already own one. Bought one when the screen downgrade was announced for the new model.
The problem that I have is that I've used my wishlist more as a way to "bookmark" games I might be interested in, so there's probably actually a lot of stuff that's on there that I'm not sufficiently interested in to want to buy.
What would be cool would be if there was a way to filter the list by, say, genre or something. So like if I'm in the mood to buy an RPG I could just show the RPGs on my wishlist and see if there was any I wanted to buy. Is there any tool or website that can do this? Enhanced Steam doesn't do it, is there anything else that does?

I'm almost done with the demo of Paint It Back. I think I like the abstractness of the (hex)cells games more, but other than that it's a marvelous puzzle game, with a ton of content. I will definitely get it during the next sale (not that it's too expensive at the normal price).

List of why lists sucks:
1) you can make a way more interesting and enjoyable
2) argument (or express yourself in general) by actually forming
3) nice sentences with your mind and fingers

The biggest discount it's had so far is only 15% and that was at launch
Have a little laugh folks, cause I did when they happened.
To be honest it was your fault XD
Mine is: go to SteamDB, sales, sort by discount, see everything that's at least 75% off, and make sure it's the highest discount ever.
Anything that doesn't fall into these criteria can wait for a better sale.
Awwww Ys!
One of us!
Also, Ys VI was out this April, Ys V is the only one not out, and that game is in desperate need of a remake.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/312540/
Ys 7 and memories of Celceta are two games not on Steam, unfortunately. Only available on PC in China.
Be sure to check out the Trails in the Sky series if you can!
I think VI was released after my little spree had ended, so I'll scoop it up next time it goes on sale.
I have Memories of Celceta and Trails in the Sky on Vita...although I do keep buying games. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.

We'll see.
Took me 21 hours to finish the game, and while two or three hours of those were achievement hunts, it's still quite a lot.
Especially when you consider I've been playing nonograms for the last 15 years, and, suffice to say, I'm quite skilled at solving them quickly.

A word in defense of posting lists (within reason - and I didn't post mine) - 90% of the reason I read SteamGAF is exchange of opinions about games, and, believe it or not, half of the value is just knowing what games are out there and what they are about. Lists with played time - as long as that played time can be trusted (ie, it's way past idling time) - give a quick grasp of what games people are playing in general, and many top 10s contain surprises. I completely agree some words about the list would be even better, but even without anything else, lists are somewhat useful.
Because I feel like a limbless crab today.

Like you said, some words or context would help promote more discussion which is the only reason why it receives some negative posts as it is just people posting lists with irrelevant context, and some are posting for the sake of it because it's the "in" thing right now.
Also hi!
Because I ate the legs. Delicious!
I take it not a lot of people bought this game. Thought it looked pretty nice and may end up buying it to see how it is. Unreal 4 Engine too looks nice.

Wtf had a windows update but it looks like it's redoing 10 or something....
Idle masters, how do you get cards from free games?
I played this cool short game http://store.steampowered.com/app/409160/
Now it has cards, but my badge page says no card drops remaining. I already got 4 hrs of playtime + idling and still no drop.

It's probably the major November update... yeah, it's like it's reinstalling Windows 10 again.
Is it free or free 2 play? F2P requires you to spend money to get card drops.

I thought this maybe too..I guess I didn't realize I never got that update. Thanks

Its alright. buggy and not a big player base though
if there are no ingame micro-transactions then you can only get them by crafting booster packs
Happy birthday!

If thats bumming you out, ask the people from the dota 2 thread to post their stats.
That should cheer you up.
Is'nt that a catch-22? Dont you need cards to craft in the first place?
Its free-free. Nothing to buy. A short humorous walking simulator type game.
One thing I learned is that most gamers are terrible at basic sentences much less argumentative ones. The kind of arguments I generally see from gamers are when they circle the wagons and go fanboy on everyone. Or arguing list positions.

It *is* installing a new version of Windows, your old one is going to be backed up similarly to how it is backed up during an upgrade from, say, Windows 7 - you can delete the backup later (it's going to be pretty big) using a system tool.
