That feeling when you see a game that you just got from somewhere and downloaded/installed it but haven't played it yet in a modbot giveaway... and it has the little poop icon next to it.

;_;

 

[Arthea]

I'm like really annoyed now... when steam got rid of watch badge from a card page link and why would they do such a horrible thing?

 

[corrosivefrost]

They want people to buy from their ios app only I guess.
Since you can remote download from that. Dunno if the Android even has that but it's sad regardless that is the only way.

You can do this in your web browser. At least I can.

What sucks is when I have 5 keys from a bundle and I have to find the best way to get them ON my gaming PC and then 1 by 1 sit through the Steam client freezing as it redeems them 1 by 1.

OAuth was the closest thing to web redemption we had. This is giant fucking step back unless Valve starts allowing browser key redemption.

There's GestureWorks Gameplay. I grabbed it during the sale for my SP3. I haven't had a chance yet to check it out though.

Damn SteamGAF since Winter sale few friends from another local forum and i are playing NFS Hot Pursuit and we are having so much fun Lobby is always full and game is really amazing for 30 minutes to 1 hour fun every night or every couple of days. Best spent money in recent future. Can't wait to see that new crazy Criterion game

 

[Haunted]

Humble Bundle: "However, Steam is removing support for OAuth, so we’ll be returning to the system we used before, which requires you to manually redeem your Steam keys".

:/ I liked the ease of using linked accounts.

 

[Tizoc]

...and the results

suppadoopa claimed your The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match Final Edition key. There were 60 entrants.
Kiru claimed your Ys Origin key. There were 45 entrants.
drakaenae claimed your Ys: The Oath in Felghana key. There were 45 entrants.

Da anime thirst is real :V

There Came an Echo Announcement Trailer

Coming to Steam February 24th = D

Love ya Feep. Very excited to see if the voice commands actually, really work. It's been promised often yet rarely achieved.

 

[Lomax]

Account linking and redemption is now gone on IndieGala and all bundles just give you keys now.

 

[Stitch]

Meh, the manual way is easier anyway

uhh no it's not

how is copy/pasting every key into steam easier (and don't forget that steam will check every key for like 30 secs..) than clicking on a few buttons?

im in. if i dont win i was going to buy this anyway. if i win ill give one away too

 

[DillonMabry]

I, for one, am happy to see the linked account system go. As someone that regularly redeems games to my dupe account, or gives them away, the gift system is a whole dumb and unnecessary process. Sure, the one-click redeem was convenient, but only when you were redeeming that game to your account. From the start I've thought it was dumb and pointless, so I won't miss it one bit.

I do hope they keep the unredeemed keys list though. Makes it much easier to keep track of what keys I have or haven't looked at.

uhh no it's not

You have to put in your mail address and then connect it to Steam again because it doesn't always keep the cookies and then you click the buttons.

At least it's not especially worse.

Luckily at school I have unlimited bandwidth, at home we are capped at 300GB a month, can only download Wolfenstein 8 times.

It isn't. For almost everyone the linked system was easier and faster. It's only easier to give keys away (and trade/sell them) using the old system.

I, for one, am happy to see the linked account system go. As someone that regularly redeems games to my dupe account, or gives them away, the gift system is a whole dumb and unnecessary process. Sure, the one-click redeem was convenient, but only when you were redeeming that game to your account. From the start I've thought it was dumb and pointless, so I won't miss it one bit.

I do hope they keep the unredeemed keys list though. Makes it much easier to keep track of what keys I have or haven't looked at.

I'm sure you understand though that you're in the vast minority.

 

[Sendou]

Humble Bundle: "However, Steam is removing support for OAuth, so we’ll be returning to the system we used before, which requires you to manually redeem your Steam keys".

I prefer just straight up getting a key.

Speaking of which: thanks for the game Tizoc! One of these days I'll own all of the Stumpokapow Seal of Quality games.

 

[Locust]

Wow, I'm glad I took the 15 minutes to write up what I had unclaimed on Indie Gala. They even removed the "claimed to Steam account X" text from used keys.

So i had my sociology class today. My professor is a 62 years old gentleman. (He told us his age, not that I'm psychic)

He's a bit of an oddball, he has strange mannerism. You can really see it in his movement and the way he communicate.

But he seem like a lovable oddball, he's funny and very wise. I haven't met my other professors yet but I can tell he's probably going to be my favorite this semester. Funny thing is he told us about his credential and that he took exactly zero classes in sociology. (He has a bachelor in psychology and anthropology among other stuff) yet now he's teaching a sociology class lol

"Well I'm not clearly qualify for this, you all can leave!" lol We ended up listening to classic 60-70's song for the duration of the class and talk about the meaning of each songs. Interesting stuff really.

anyway, have anyone played GRAV? for some reason it remind me of a more exploration based version of Destiny.

Edit: Jaw is like my new favorite gaffer cause he like Tales games.

Community-side convinced me that I should look forward to the reversible USB C connector.

Everyone should. As you said: reversible. You'll save years of your life otherwise spent in agony.

It also carries DP and is backwards compatible with olden USB iirc.

Sucks about OAuth.

Maybe this means Valve can focus on updating the android app!

I'm confused about that as well.
Highly doubt KenOD added that.

 

[Mr. Doop]

I think it has to do with the fact that gamergate recommends the game, but I'm not sure.

Yeah that GG tag is a really strange addition.

 

[KenOD]

While I'm capable of doing so, it's all on Stump and ModBot for that tag. I'm not sure why it's been added either as it's a Steam title through a Humble Bundle link.

So I spent most of Sunday "breaking in" my new superpowered gaming desktop with some Wolfenstein TLO, Divinity:OS, and Warframe. Man, this was one hell of an upgrade. Jaw-dropping all around.

But there's this little voice in the back of my ear going "You should get Eliteangerous"

That's a dumb voice that I shouldn't listen to, right?

 

[Zeeman]

I'm guessing the GG tag is because Brad Wardell of Stardock has come out vocally pro-Gamergate
