Apparently it goes away if you haven't had a refund in awhile? Though I got a refund and got quicker card drops too. No more needing to idle them all to 2 hours

I wish card drop notifications would appear immediately instead of waiting after I exit the game.
I don't want to keep relaunching crappy games to see if I got the card

Yup, you needed to play 2 hours before the first drop appeared. Seems like that may not be the case anymore.

It has to do with having gotten refunds lately, I think it was in place to make sure there weren't people selling cards for games and then refunding the game.

Maybe now that they fucked up they'll try extra hard to land games that aren't shit... maybe
This would make sense, because I've always had card drops within the first couple of hours and I never refunded.
I did my first refund last week.
So you're actually a cat, huh?
And I'm actually a pixellated goat! Uhh I mean baaaaa.
Trying out Blue Revolver again, it's better than I thought it was originally. Though the movement speeds don' feel quite right.

Just beaten Pony Island (I think!) - now I see what the fuss about this game has been about! I'll need to go back and look for a few more tickets, though. Certainly the game's well worth the recent sale price.
Asmodeus got me.

It was a bit of work. But having the mass effect teammates in Xcom 2 is nice. Especially with the corresponding voice pack.

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.
I have now tallied 76 votes for our SteamGAF GOTY voting from the following people:
If your name is on this list, congrats and please ignore all my future nagging.
For the rest of you, you only have
left until voting closes, so be sure and get your ballots to me on time.
Look for information in this month's OP!

Guess I need to start playing Tales again.
Wow try to log into Origin, last three days says it is unavailable. So I try support and get to the point where I need to log in.
Then I get your credentials have expired change password. Do that and successfully change. Still get same message.
Guess my EA account is forever unusable.

I just started up Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. God, this game is cheesy as hell, it's great.
I wish I could play the old XMEN games that were on the original Xbox. I bounced off the first one for some reason but would like to give them another try. I actually still have my xbox, but I don't know if I'm going there.

Did RotR bug out on me?
im near the end when i need to save a friend which i did and get a cut scene. However after the cutscene it drops me back at a campfire when it was supposed to keep me where i was during the cutscene.
is this a known bug?

Tales of Braceria
so reading the Family Share faq, if im understanding correctly:
"Can two users share a library and both play at the same time?
No, a shared library may only be accessed by one user at a time.
When I authorize a device to lend my library to others, do I limit my own ability to access and play my games?
As the account holder, you may always access and play your games at any time. If you decide to start playing when another user is already playing one of your games, he/she will be given a few minutes to either purchase the game or quit playing."
so my friend cant play any game at all if im playing something? If so that is completely useless.

Its been like that for several months now. Glad they did it and it actually made me care about cards/market again. It was absurd prior to that where you had to play games for freaking 5hrs to get all the cards.

GOTY:
(5 Points) - 1 - Hitman
(4 Points) - 2 - Far Cry Primal
(3 Points) - 3 - Firewatch
(1 Point) - 5 - Xenus 2 White Gold
I think Hitman should win GOTY because it updates the classic Hitman formula, taking out the buggy unpredictability of it's predecessors, but keeping the comic unpredictability, and wraps it into a polished package that people new to the series can get into, shallow or deep as they like. It's now one of a small few stealth games that have such a huge space of opportunity *after* something goes bad that I'm not instantly reloading. Oddly enough, failing is fun! The risk of making it a service with ongoing episodes and elusive targets paid off in a big way and now I want to play the maps of Season 2 as they release.
DLC:
(3 Points) - DLC 1 - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine
(2 Points) - DLC 2 - The Division: Survival
(1 Point) - DLC 3 - ARMA Apex
EA:
(3 Points) - EA Game 1 - Slime Rancher
(2 Points) - EA Game 2 - CrossCode
(1 Point) - EA Game 3 - The Forest
I think Slime Rancher should win Early Access GOTY because it is a game that's wonderfully fun to play and has a darling art style. The whole game has a light touch that makes me want to hang around farming these friendly slimes and upgrading my Range. The Devs have a clear roadmap planned and update frequently, and are leveraging Steam features to add extra value (native Steam Controller support, achievements, cards, Mac and Linux). I think it has the potential to be the next indie breakout, but being in Early Access a year and nearing half a million owners, it already is.
you're sharing the library not the games.

Man these past couple of days X-COM 2 would freeze on me after about 2 hours of game time. I've had to hard reset my pc every time. Anyone experience this?
They can't play anything from your library while you are playing something, yes.

Bought the game today, played a couple of hours without any issues.
He can play his own account while you play your own account.
Now you can play his while he plays yours if you both shared.

I'm a little bit into Chapter 3. I'm going to stick it out, but I think this will be my last VN. The format just doesn't click with me. Especially since I haven't made a single meaningful choice, unless responding to some emails about cookies and things counts as meaningful.
I'm also about mid-way through Shadowrun, which is funny because someone just mentioned they were playing that, too.
the idea is for him to play my Doom for example, now that im done with it. But if he can only do that when im not on, well thats like I said, useless, since im always on. Oh well.
