Damn, how do you guys sell these so efficiently? I can't sell shit

Nothing to it really. Just selling in volume. Look up the card, see what the lowest price is, and lower it by a penny. Someone will buy it quickly. Rinse and repeat. It helps when you get lucky with a foil. And in my experiences, always sell the boosters. Don't open it.

Thanks a bunch to the anonymous guy who gifted me Titan Quest! You are an awesome guy!

First day really using Steam (other than to launch Civ 5 and TF2) and its been amazing. Added a bunch of friends from GAF and joined the NFLGAF group. I had no idea about all this plus the gifting aspect. I was on consoles to long but now that I got a decent laptop I can see myself on Steam all the time.

Nobody played Dragon Commander? I am about to miss out on it :(

It's a really good intro to the RTS genre if you're curious but are hesitant due to the perceived complexity. If you're experienced with the genre, the addition of a controllable dragon puts a refreshing spin on the game. Unit distribution is a bit basic so instead of each faction having unique units, you will have access to the same units as your opponents. Story wise, it's presented a bit like the dialogue/choice segments of The Walking Dead or Mass Effect. The writing itself is amusing and lighthearted for the most part and is a welcome departure from the serious nature that permeates most fantasy RPG's. You have to rally several races to help fight your siblings that usurped the throne after they murdered your father. Each race has their own ideological proclivities and economic interests so you have to balance each decision to ensure you do not completely alienate each race. Larian (the developers) included many issues that are relevant to the real world so it's interesting to see how your decisions play out as you try to keep all of your internal factions happy. The only issue is that for some of the political decisions the writers let their own biases influence the script, so your overly berated by the characters for making certain choices. There are some rough spots, like the difficulty being too lenient, but overall the game is a solid purchase. If you want a numerical score I would give it a 8/10 and worth the $19.99.


Sorry for the unfocused nature of the summary by the way. I'm extremely tired, so I'm not articulating myself particularly well right now.

Lol, Yeah I just figured it out.

So to be sure, because I'd love a copy of Bad Rats. Do you have to copy the code including the title of the game to ModBot? Or only the 'MB-CODE' part?

I think you can use both, the full line or just the MB- CODE, the latter definitely works.

Bought Far Cry 3!

I would get in on this raffle stuff, but I don't have 5 posts in this thread I don't think. I suppose I will just have to buy more games and make more posts about them :p

No, you have to copy the code by itself.

Edit:

I didn't know it worked both ways.

I bought a couple Guacamelee copies from Humble to gift in here, but being a dumbass, I fucked up and didn't buy one as a gift and then I claimed the other one on my humble library page (I hope Humble will be able to help me solve the problem with those), then I bought some more but this time I bought one along with other stuff thinking I'd get different gifted links instead of a single one.
Long story short, I was hoping to give away some games, instead you get 1 game giveaway and a pack of games giveaway (hoping I didn't fuck it up even more).

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Damn it barely won. Especially for the lackluster Godus (which I bought D: )

Thankfully it won by 5%.
What's lackluster about it?

Anyone recommend a good RPG type game on sale? I'll take a nice JRPG like FF or Ni Nu. Or a game like Fallout or Elder Scrolls.

The Last Remnant.

Also, surgery went ok, Steam GAF! Eyes are a bit blurry but I'm already seeing an improvement. Just got to keep up with a helluva lot of eyedrops and a few followups. Sunday and Monday should be my worst days though. D:
