Hey guyyyyyys. I want to contribute back to the community since I have participated in entering in Modbot giveaways while still showing some love for one of my favorite franchises. So I hope the people that win these will actually play them and find the same enjoyment I have :D (Also hope I didn't mess this up, first time doing this with the email link stuff).
Wow, fantastic giveaway there. A pity I already have them all.

Was thinking of picking up Europa Universalis 4 from the Humble Store. For those that have played it, does the game have a steep learning curve?

I haven't played EU4 specifically, but I have played a lot of other grand strategy games. GS games have a VERY steep learning curve. I would suggest reading the below guide:

http://www.eu4wiki.com/Beginner's_guide

^ This will give you a good overview of the game and it's core concepts. I would also suggest tinkering around ingame as well, as firsthand experience is a great way to learn in these types of games.

Edit: You will need to dedicate some time to learning the game, so think carefully before proceeding.

I know it might be some effort on my giveaway, but I made sure you can enter for as many as you want, but you can only win one. Gotta spread the Ys love to all!

Also what do we like about Contagion and Primal Carnage? Yay or nay?

Played a bit of Contagion with 3 friends, it's early access, so rough, but we had a blast with it. Hopefully they keep working on it, seems to be a good evolution of Left4Dead.
Primal Carnage is a lot of fun as well.

It was on my wishlist for some reason.

Price was good.

Picked it up tonight.

I think it was the co-op aspect that made it interesting. Since the L4D community had sort of gone to crap.

Holy cow dude.
 
Have you played any of the other Paradox Grand Strategy games? I've heard they've gotten much easier to get in to, but it's still a lot to overcome for a beginner.

No I haven't. Only recently got into the strategy genre via playing Civ 5, but from what I've heard E4 is a lot harder.

It's an incredibly complex game, but it's totally worth it.

Thanks for the feedback. Have to decide whether I'm willing to put in the time to understand the game.

If you happen to need cards #1, #5, or #10 (of which I have two), hit me up here. The cards are first come first serve. I may or may not be playing league of legends at the same time, so give me a bit to respond.

Edit: #5 given to wilflare, still have the other 3

Have a bunch of leftover Humble keys just rotting away. They're all Steam keys and were never clicked, so are 100% unused.

Ok, so I got laid off in 2011, and haven't been able to find a full time job since.

That being said, I realize others out there are in similar situations.

So, for the next hour, I'll be taking PMs from people who have similar stories and picking someone to buy a game from their wishlist.

I don't have a lot of money admittedly, but I managed to get lucky and realized I had points left over from my Gamestop membership (which landed me a $20 Steam gift card). So, mail me your sob stories, and I'll do what I can to hellp someone out who's in a shitty situation too.

Hang in there, it's a new year SteamGAF. Our luck's gonna change, let this giveaway be the start of it.

Deadline 11:30pm EST.

No entries so far..

Guess I'm the only unlucky one. :D

Good to hear..

Seriously thought, msg me your sob stories and I'll do what I can do get something from someone's wish list.

Happy News Years!
