I dont really know but let me keep typing in spoilers just for the sake of it and make someone believe Im spoiling something. Now I spoil something here: Aerith Dies.
Don't read scrollback, it's full of thread shitting with horrible images.

I was going to watch a 10-part Let's Play by pewdiepie of this game, but now that Nito has spoiled it what's the point?
But pewdiepie is the bestest gamer youtuber in the entire universe!!!!

It's sorta like a demo as far as I'm concerned... Watching streams of new fighters to figure out if the core systems OK enjoyable as well as getting impressions of characters you might be interested in playing seems fine to me. Who cares if you see some supers or whatever before you play it.
. Same with spelling or any game when I'm not invested in the story.. I can understand wanting a media blackout cause you want to experience it all first hand though.What always gets me is the people who see something like a location name and act like you just told them Dumbledore dies.
Yummy.
I need to get back into Lego Movie and start collecting more... bolts? Buttons? Whatever they're called to unlock more characters.

That was honestly my favorite thing.
I beat the Portal 2 single player today. I loved it, and wished there was more. Dunno when I'll get around to doing the co-op stuff.

Start whispring willows!
Let me know when u finish it so I can be tempted to get it, from what I'm reading it's not THAT scary, but the visual presentation is pretty good.

I'll await extensive and exhaustive impression about Whispering Willow! Though I'm interested in impressions for the rest too, but Whispering Willows first.
They changed the wishlist banner image.
I guess it was a bit nsfw.

Yeah I watched the game on Dunders Stream and it looks pretty neat. Kinda like a dustforce speedrunner but multiplayer and the power to troll and screw with the other player. I love all these 4 player Indie games recently like this, Broforce, Abyss Odyssey, etc.
Hey GAF. Man I missed an entire morning and afternoon. Been away
Anyway, what did I missed?
All you missed was horrific Waifu Showers. Don't go back lol
EDIT: OH dammmn just came up on a Foil for Sir You Are Being Hunter! It's the gamekeeper

Parameters:
- Offer me two items (I don't care what it is--if you have a 20% off coupon for some turd game or an emote you hate, that'll do). Please don't send anything of value.
- If there's a text field in the trade off, just fill it out with gibberish. If it lets you put multiple lines of text, please put multiple lines of text.
- Don't ask for anything from my account in return.
I need two trade requests, one of which I'll reject, the other of which I will accept. If I accept you request I will send a trade offer to give you back the items, I just want to test something out.
Thanks. I'll delete this post when I've gotten two offers.
Just added you and sent a trade offer of 2 25% off Pixel Piracy to test.

Perfect, that's exactly what I need. This'll be the offer I reject, but it'll be big-time helpful. The fact that they're "the same item" is also super useful. Thanks.

Just finished Stacking. Impressions:
The graphics: Very cute. It's all based on toys and small household objects. All the characters are matryoshka dolls, backgrounds have things like matches and playing cards strewn about.
The story: Very charming. Industrial-revolution-era setting with characters who do various industrial revolution things (like "black lung cough.") Cutscenes are presented like a silent movie (albeit with some colour,) complete with title cards for dialogue. Characters in-game have changing dialogue depending who you use to speak to them, which was a nice touch.
The gameplay: Pretty fun. The objective is to find characters with various abilities to solve puzzles, "stack" inside them, and go solve the puzzles. Some puzzles involve forming a stack of three or more characters that are similar in some way. By endgame you can form a stack of seven characters. Overall the puzzles aren't too terribly tough. Puzzles can be solved in more ways than one, anywhere from 3 to 6, allowing you to replay the puzzle several times and encouraging experimentation. The characters don't move as fast as you'd like, which is one downside, especially as the later levels get much larger.
The music: Silent-movie-style piano keeps everything thematic.
The length: Ten hours. To 100% everything. Including the DLC. And that's with characters that move too slow. If you just solve every puzzle one way to get through the story, you'd probably be looking at 3. Maybe less.
The verdict: It's a good, well-put-together, easy-on-the-eyes puzzle game with the length of a point-and-click adventure. Find a price point where that's worth it to you, and get it.

Looking forward to these two in particular.

Sent you an offer as well.

Thanks to Hugstable, Ozium, and liezryou, all of whom sent different types of item, which will be great for trying to figure out how item types are encoded and the best way for me to be able to read them.

So... I'm assuming some kind of addition to ModBot where you just send him the goods and he gifts them out after a raffle or something? I dunno, I may be reaching a bit much here.Thanks to Hugstable, Ozium, and liezryou, all of whom sent different types of item, which will be great for trying to figure out how item types are encoded and the best way for me to be able to read them.

Are you planning on making an account for Modbot where we can send gift/items/whatever and he post it here?

It's nothing yet, I'm just trying to understand mechanically how trade offers work to make a trade bot because I want a programming project over the next month or so hahaha. How or if it gets integrated into ModBot is undecided. My first stab is just going to be a naive TrashBot style "I will accept anything you offer me but otherwise don't do anything" bot. Long term if I was happy with my understanding of how Valve does trades I'd probably be willing to look into more in-depth stuff like being able to gift stuff to ModBot, have him PM you the post code for the gifts, and have the winners automatically get a trade offer on Steam. But consider that wishful thinking, I have an international move coming up shortly and my availability will be poor, so I don't think I have quite enough time to do it all from scratch to that level this year. Who knows.
Unfortunately market bots are banned because I'd really like to make an arbitrage trading bot--it'd be pretty easy to scan the market to look for items whose best buy offer is significantly below the average trading price, then make a best buyer offer and extract profit by buying the item when someone accidentally misprices it and then selling at the market average. With the buy order system it's not even difficult to do--with the first-come first-serve buy orders there were a bunch of performance considerations. But when buy orders you don't even need to be especially efficient, just routinely skim off the market. But again they're banned, so that's a no-go.

This is a trading bot. It buys and sells earbuds on command at listed prices. It even matches your offer if you overpay according to the current ref/key value. Maybe some research on it would help.
Also don't make that bot lol. There was a dude who lost 10k+ worth of items because he used a steam market bot XD. (I assume he made a shitton more though)
Thanks for the impressions. I really should get back to this one. I think I "played" 5 minutes of it (or just watched the opening cutscene). Now that I know it's pretty short, I'll definitely give it another go.
Stacking is pretty great.
The DLC... less so, sadly.
(Or maybe I was just suffering from Stacking fatigue, since I pretty much mainlined it)

Yeah there's quite a few bots out there that use the trade system. All of the card exchange bots, obviously. I'm not looking at anything too fancy, I don't want to profit off anyone
