I just wish Valve would give us an option for achievement unlock sound.
I'm using third party mod just for that, but it's ridiculous that they have a sound for taking screenshot and not for this!
Gamepad support!
Yosh, day one purchase!

Nice! It will cost $6.99 / £4.99 / €6.99.

But I'm currently still far from done with Picross 3D Round 2 so this one has to wait.

Well that's going on the wishlist.
my list:
(5 Points) - Eternal Card Game
(4 Points) - The House in Fata Morgana
(3 Points) - Stardew Valley
(2 Points) - XCOM 2
(1 Point) - STEINS;GATE[/QUOTE]
The House in Fata Morgana is fantastic and it was looking like it would easily be my #1 when I played it in the start of November
but then Eternal hit open beta and I started playing it
it's pretty much the perfect digital card game for me,I played Hearthstone off and on for a couple years and enjoyed it quite a bit but for all the fun it could be and how good the presentation was I often wished it was a bit deeper had less rng and so on
alternatives have popped up but I always found them super easy to discount due to messy looking interfaces and such making me not even really want to try getting into them and certainly not able to stomach watching streams of them
enter Eternal,it's got what I was looking for as far as gameplay goes and feels radically different than Hearthstone does and also has a nice clean looking presentation to it
easy to get into,nice and deep,and I can watch streams of it and actually follow along
it even made me completely ignore a Hearthstone expansion I was excited about
I stopped playing it for a week due to holidays and getting lost in Stardew Valley but looking to jump back in with the new season and I played it like CRAZY the month before that(to the tune of a whopping 182 hours)

That mindset never fails to baffle me. I thought people in general cared less about achievements since the new console generation arrived.
I like achievements, there's no reason not to have them. I don't care if I don't get them all, but it's nice to see something pop up while I'm playing, especially for stuff that's not tied to story progression or kill x number of bad guys etc. Something like finding an easter egg or a little stupid thing that you try being recognised is always great. Valve has a bunch of fun little achievements like that, the Lego games do usually too.
I always forget that this is a word that's only used in german, even though part of the word is english.
I just tried the forked version and for some reason I find it listing games way better than Steam. I even find games that I have forgotten and want to play now

I need that so much! I never manage to play those kinds of games in moderation haha, I'm obsessive with them untill I've solved all puzzles.
I did a sub ages ago and now regret it. Hopefully I am proven wrong but I fully expect GAMEPUMP to be shit.

Yep, always happy to see more of these on Steam.
Picross 3D was the first of these types of games I have played (and I have played a ton since then), but it's still my favorite. My son got a 3ds for X-mas, so I am finally going to get to play the follow up soon too. Yay!

Now, if HL3 isn't announced this year,
it would never be announced after.

I subbed earlier this week. It's $20 but I'm hopeful, for the sake of their program, these games will be of some decent to good quality.
What can I say? I am GAMEPUMPED.
Tizoc
Member
Well, Left 4 Dead 3 is presumably further along than Half-Life 3 and still hasn't been announced. Unless things have inverted since the JIRA leaks, which strongly pointed to L4D3 being in active development and HL3 in pre-production, announcing the latter this year would just be an empty gesture as it wouldn't even be close to having an estimated release date.
Chairmanchuck
Member
I still am kinda scared of L4D3, because I have the feeling it might be a cheap game with cosmetic microtransactions like CS:Go.
Hey at least with low expectations, we might be surprised if at least 1 good game comes out of this.
I don't know about "cheap", but it's safe to assume that there'll be a microtransaction component. Overwatch is proof that a microtransaction-laden game can work on PSN and XBL, but I believe that Valve is done with consoles as the PS360 versions of CS:GO were never patched and the roadblock that prevented the release of the game on European stores never resolved. I'd go so far as to say that the only reason the game is on consoles at all is that it began life as port of CS:S and although there was a decision internally to focus exclusively on the PC version, it made more sense to complete the console versions than scrap them.

I am, it's only $20, I've spent far more on far worse things.
Chairmanchuck

Yeah. I understand that, but somehow it would be strange if L4D, even though it never took itself seriously, might have hats, ridiculous costumes, maybe even skins for the special infected and such stuff.

$20 fo 13 games aint so bad
At the very least you can trade for another game or sell it for $5
It's really a Trevor story, IMO. Mike betrays him in 2004. It's 2013-2014 now. They're both in California--er--"San Andreas" after Mike "retries" from robbing and crookery that kills Brad, a friend of Trevors and fakes his death with Brad's body. Trevor figured they were friends and mourned him in those ten years.
Trevor, meanwhile in those 10 years gets hooked on meth (that he produces) to try to "start a global business" running guns and drugs around the world. Obviously, this isn't happening gets into bed with a Chinese billionaire that backs out at the last minute to contract another local crime family. Trevor takes them out, finds out Michael robbed a bank (with Franklin/last GTA5 protagonist) and goes to LA/Los Santos to find out if it's true.
Anyway, some heists and double-crosses by the "FIB"/FBI and "IAA"/CIA later. Mike and Trevor and Franklin rob the federal bank and get away clean (depending on the plan you made).
Big bad comes out of nowhere that is a Billionaire that Michael helped (and Franklin/Trevor got ropped into helping but got stiffed on payment while Michael got stiffed nearly in helping a movie producer that said Billionaire wanted out of the picture's movie business), along with the FBI that won't let Michael out of "witness protection" due to his handler being nearly caught in bad shit.
Trevor still wants to kill Michael over the bank heist gone-wrong and killing Brad in 2004. You (Franklin) have the option to kill either one of them or take option "C" and save them while killing the Billionaire and FBI handlers in the process. If you choose option C, they all go their own separate ways. Trevor goes back to trying to sling drugs with the millions from the gold they stole. Michael gets into the movie business with the person that big-bad-millionaire linked him up with.
Franklin? Franklin is minor. He goes from "boosting"/stealing cars to repossess for a shady car dealer, to Michael's "protoge" in heists, to living outside his lower-class LA crime-neighborhood in the hills of LA near Hollywood. He says he's going to help his friends out now, but that's about it.

So yeah, it's mostly Trevor's story. Which is fine with me because Trevor REALLY was hillarious while being completely depraved. It also helps that
Trevor is hinted to be better than he thinks he is despite the amount of abuse he had as a child going between Canada and America and his parents psychological abuse and abandonment
It really is a game changer.
Damn shame. I had hopes with Garfield attached. But it just being "Uncharted: Fight for Fortune" on PC and taking forever did it no favors.

We are all GAMEPUMPED
I think Valve's done a good job of preserving the competitive nature of CS:GO while broadening the palette of microtransactions. It's made a point to not to implement hats and the weapon/glove skins don't distract from the core gameplay.
Chairmanchuck
Member
I am talking about the look of the game. I think it wouldnt fit with L4D if all of a sudden everyone has strange, funny looking hats, purple guns and stuff like that.
Yeah. I know. I still like CS:Go as well as TF2, but I think the whole artstyle of the game might suffer (if they decide to replicate the one from L4D1+2).
AHA-Lambda
Member
Valve don't make games man
I can certainly understand being a little sceptical, but I think CS:GO most of all shows that Valve is capable of drawing a well-placed line between microtransactions and the visual identity/tone of a game.
spindoctor
Member
Well you wouldn't have believed that a 'serious' game like Counter Strike would work fine with those same purple weapons and flashy knives before they actually added this stuff, but it does. I doubt it'll matter in a game like L4D which doesn't even have a competitive angle to be mindful of.
EDIT - and by competitive I mean esports angle. I'm aware of the versus mode

They were 80% off so I took the plunge.
(5 points) - Steins;Gate
(4 points) - The House in Fata Morgana
(3 points) - The Witness
Hope its ok to have three games listed and not 5. I didn't buy that many 2016 games on Steam. The other 2016 games I purchased The Division and Stellaris I don't think deserve any points.
Even though I doubt Steins; Gate will win, I voted for it anyway. It was the best game I played all year and an easy 10/10. The story is such a thrill ride and I enjoyed every minute. The House in Fata Morgana was also fantastic, given the choice to newcomers, Steins;Gate is a much easier recommendation as the subject matter is more light hearted and fun than The House in Fata Morgana which is fairly dark the entire time. Finally The Witness is a really impressive one of a kind game. When it released I thought we'd see plenty of copy cats, but no its so difficult to execute a game like this just right. All three games I've picked seem to take their concept and deep dive and explore every facet, and that's what impresses me the most, the fact that the designer takes the gamer places that he hasn't been before. That's the difference between the three games I picked and The Division and Stellaris. In The Division, the game looks stunning, but it gets repetitive fast. In Stellaris, I feel like the 4X elements are too stock standard and there is a problem with micromanagement from very early on in the game.

If they are going to be delisted then it would be in the coming days but if not the. Theyre still available for another year at least
Ill tweet hasbro and see if they got anything to say about the tf license

I wouldn't expect an answer as the expiration date isn't mentioned in Acti's press release, but the point is moot as Acti has a habit of dumping licences before they expire.
