an online shooter with coop focus and a loot system?
those seem to be doing okay these days so maybe?
Ubi using HB for other purpose than EA, they still keep their games on steam to get those mountains of moneys, but they not gonna give steam keys anywhere else, especially humble, which they use to get more people to dl uplay and use it before withdrawing from steam for good.
EA already has very little presence on steam, so they don't that mind giving steam keys for those games that still remain, as it is not many.

I'm surprised you found time in your life to speak to us, I thought you were deep in that Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six SIege
Not me after the beta. I found myself really bored.

Ok, this was good.
And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go to?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right?...Am I wrong?
And you may say to yourself yourself
My God!...What have I done?!
Yes...I too feel this flame of revenge...no. This Phantom Pain.

Grisaia KS Update #45: 48 hour Notification Before Address Lockdown + Translation Update

I'm pretty sure all the clumps of fur she's gonna leave on the pad when I'm not looking will work wonder to improve the mouse performance!
But eh, she just loves sitting around the mouse. She's a proper cat, you know.
When I saw the size before buying I was kinda wary of how thin it is. Turns out, it's not much thinner than my previous cheap pad. And not having a sort of rigid pad is great for not having wrist marks like I was on suicide watch.
But anyway, I really can't wait for the mouse now!

Eh? Not for post-Steam games, they don't.
But in any case, yeah it's really bizarre that they don't just do Steam. They're giving you a Uplay CD-key in that case anyway.

I've talked well about it, maybe it was me?!
Glad someone in here is finally playing it.
The wording makes it feel as if the lock was meant for the January-February PC release thread.

Anyone else still getting the "product out of stock" problem for the nvidia ROTTR promo?
Yes. But I guess it's becaue the promo hasn't officially started yet according to Lunaniem

Or we're all Fucked. I'm sticking with your answer though.
Yup, if you got the steam key, you're safe though. I'm fairly certain they won't revoke any of the steam keys.

Haha, fantastic
Man, the bundle per se is kinda tempting but Uplay only = auto-cold.
Everybody who goes for the 10$ tier, have fun updating the game MANUALLY FOR EVERY VERSION released. ffs, that was the first and last time I bought an uPlay-only game.
haha, yeah.
Strata is a nice, relaxing puzzle game. The goal of the game is to complete the pattern by weaving the coloured ribbons correctly.
Whenever you place a ribbon, there will be a tune. It will be a nice and relaxing one when you placed it right, and disharmonious when you made a mistake. Level 1-5 have the same sounds, you only get different ones in the last 2 levels.
The menu can be a bit buggy though. Sometimes, when you want to exit the game or just try another puzzle and go back to the menu, this happens:
I also had a bug where nothing visually seemed wrong, but I couldn't click on anything and had to force quit the game. Well, there is no quit-button, so that is the only way to close it anyway.
The bugs only happened in the menu though, never within the puzzles.
As far as puzzle games go, it's definitely on the easier side, though some of the larger puzzles can be challenging. Recommended for puzzle-fans.

Didn't they fix that? I know Splinter Cell: Blacklist was old-school "manually patch" but they then patched Uplay to do it like Steam/automatically.

Sounds nice, I'll have to pick it up.....
....What? I do not recall this.
I'd assume they don't know where the recent surge came from but once they clear out it was from newegg they should let you redeem it just fine...hopefully.

Strata has been bundled three times so you likely got it in one of them.

yeah...as far as I've seen all you can do with the NVIDIA RotTR codes is just try to redeem them and then have them notify you when the codes are ready...haven't seen anyone say they've got an actual code yet
the promo started today as far as them sending those redeem codes out so hopefully it's not too long until they are fully redeemable

looks like AMD has temporarily stopped people from using those keys anymore
I dunno, I played the game in... 2014 I think, so I guess they could've improved that by now. Haven't booted up the uPlay client itself in ages.
Why have you forsaken me chronomac?
If only Valve Support are this quick.
Funny thing is. I managed to get my support question answered to why Dark Souls II haven't been refunded yet.
They said Dark Souls II has been removed from my account and the refund has been deposited into my steam wallet.
*check library and steam wallet = Dark Souls II and $0.00*
LIES!

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It's essentially the reason I initially created Enhanced Steam.
