Is this a thing? Writing impressions for games we complete? Because I just 100% Metro 2033 yesterday and felt like writing something up to convince others to play it if it's in their backlog.

I gather post-game impresions are quite welcomed in this thread, as long as you put things under spoilers when needed.

As for Metro 2033, I started it but I could not get into it

Spoiler

I was stuck at the gate of some city as I was low in ammo so I disintalled it as I didn't feel like starting it again

so I would like if someone talked me into it.

If you're having trouble, use the shotgun to blow off their legs, then kill the parasites while they're face down. And don't look directly at their faces. It... it doesn't go away.

I'm not having trouble with them, I also now acquired the thermal scope, they just creep me out.

3.

They'll come back when you expect it the least. Hahahhahaha!

New Indie Royale "Shoe Bundle"

Jack Lumber

Jack Lumber is more fun than it should be. Obviously iOS port, with Fruit Ninja style gameplay, but with more pattern matching - you've got to chop logs in certain direction/order to pass the level.

A pleasant distraction that doesn't take itself too seriously.

 

[Altazor]

I just got invited to 64 different Steam groups by someone I don't know, with the group titles insulting me in various ways.

What's wrong with people?

WTF. This is one sad, pathetic individual.

If you blow its legs off,

doesn't it start doing the worm

Just started playing Metro 2033 last week, would like very much to read your impressions on it.

Thanks for the PCGamer heads up, Turfster. It actually gives +3 on your game count once you redeem the key. Link for the lazy http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/07/23/free-steam-key/

I missed my 300 thinking it was only one game. Oh well

I already had Race 07 and GTR from another bundle, but activating this key still gave me +2 to my game count. Of course the original key from that bundle was like +9 or something, they have that game set up so weird in the store it's hard to even know which one to play.

I don't like the sound of this.

 

[Crayons]

WTF. This is one sad, pathetic individual.

Wow. That's... sad.

Yeah. I've also done some research, and I found out this person lives fairly close to me. I have a bad feeling that it's this guy who I used to know...and we stopped talking to each other.

Or it could just be someone I don't know? I don't know, but it was still very unpleasant to wake up to a literal stream on insults.

 

[jshackles]

Hey everyone - I've been out for a couple of days, did I miss anything exciting? I see that the new episode of The Walking Dead is out - can't wait to play it.

In the mean time, I'm working on this:

Basically, once you add something to your wishlist you'll be able to go in and leave yourself a little note as to why it's on your wishlist. Of course, it'll be totally optional. But it might help jog your memory as to why it was there in the first place.

I see Arkham Knight has a store page now. My "Wait for GOTY" tag was getting dusty.

Made $1.25 from steam cards, why does it feel so fulfilling?

Wow, that's a very useful feature. You really do put a lot of work into this, thanks man.
How did that job offer you had last week work out? Hope the deal is sealed.

 

[Shadownet]

Maybe I should pull a Sub Zero and enter my own giveaway to see if Modbot will do it again.

 

[Easton Dark]

Because it's literally free money for games if you don't buy games specifically for the cards.

They offered the job to someone else who was willing to start that very same day, unfortunately. The job market where I live is pretty cutthroat. I just didn't feel right giving my current employer absolutely no notice that I was leaving.

Also, awesome Arkham Knight giveaway! I just started Arkham Asylum the other day, haven't played Arkham City, and don't even own Arkham Origins, so I'll be sitting this one out.

Can other people see it too? So I can leave them a note. "Dont get me this game? I'm just putting it here as a reminder!"

whoever he/she is, that kinds of stunts denote a very immature person. I don't know how some people can stoop so low to do shit like that.

Its going to give it to you.

outside the Steam thread, seems like no one bothers with Modbot? :/
- no one took my PS4 Destiny Beta NA code

 

[Sub Zero]

It had a store page since it got announced. Did they open up the preorder for it?

Sounds cool!
Mine will look like this:

Game 1: SteamGAF hyped me.
Game 2: SteamGAF hyped me more.
Game 3: I like the artwork.
Game 4: Curse you SteamGAF!

 

[ShogunX]

In the mean time, I'm working on this.

Is there any way you can implement being able to sort your inventory manually?

 

[jshackles]

Can other people see it too? So I can leave them a note. "Dont get me this game? I'm just putting it here as a reminder!"

Unfortunately that would be a bit tricky to pull off. Any time other users need access to information you enter, I have to throw up a "sign in with Steam" dialog any time you change something so I know it was you that changed it and not some prankster.

For now, this will just be notes you leave yourself.

 

[Porcupine]

Damn, I really want Arkham Knight, I'm very hyped for this game after the E3 Presentation.

Also looking forward to play the new Dark Souls II DLC on the weekend =)

[Caerith]

It's not open for pre-order yet, I think they need more time to come up with the most-convoluted DLC scheme imaginable. (I didn't notice the store page until it was linked earlier.)

 

[jshackles]

Is there anyway you can implement being able to sort your inventory manually?

Unfortunately, no. This is something that's controlled server-side by Valve. The best I could do would be to assign user-changeable sorting values to let you sort it manually, but it'd be kind of weird to manage since things in your inventory can be added or removed really often.

So yeah, unfortunately that'll be something we'll have to wait on Valve to do.

Now if only steam give us a separate list cf from our wish list that we can put games into so that our friends won't accidentally buy us games we're just monitoring at the moment.
