Remember folks, I don't pimp games for my own benefit. I'm just simply trying to help out where I can. Lethal League is the shit.
Genre/playstyle - should be something that is intended to be replayed many times, or that can be played continuously as new content is added. So exploration games, city builders, crafting games would be good. Story based games wouldn't be that interesting to me as early access.

I've played more than 2 hours of the newest Sherlock Holmes game that was on sale very recently, can I still refund it to get it for cheaper now?
Steam tax >_>
Seriously that game has been cheap as chips on gog so many times compared to Steam it's criminal.

I'd try if I were you. It's a valid reason according to their support page.

I don't know, if you want to know definitively just try it. I've heard stories of them being lenient and stories stating the opposite. It's probably a matter of how far you went over the limit. I can tell you however that they will not refund games you bought in 2012 & 2013 because I tried (hadn't played them, they're cheaper now figured I'd give it a try). Quickest turnaround time of any steam support issue too, they replied within 3 hours after I requested the refund.
Thanks Toki! Thanks for not going with the #1 game since I had arranged my wishlist alphabetically that way (before they added the option!)
I thought about going with Broforce (will pick it up if it's on sale), or Koi Koi, but ultimately went with X-Wing vs Tie Fighter..
And so, now I pay it forward.. 24 hr giveaway.

I don't want to play any of the games I've purchased so far.
That sounds about right.
That sounds about right.
Stuxnet 2.0.
To be fair, the Bloody Baron questline is a little RPG in and of itself. Definitely one of the highlights of the entire genre, imo.

Noted.
Waifus. /jk Edit: Damn it, rctn63 beat me.
Price would definitely be a major influence. Expecting polish out of an early access game seems a little unrealistic to me. It also needs to be the kind of game that interests me. As for Polish if I wanted that I'd just play the Witcher.
Thanks, FellowGAF.
Early Access is not the ideal situation, but it would help soften the blow of not having a few pieces of content right now that, while they would increase enjoyment of the game 100%, are not crucial to the game running and being complete.
Also hit a pretty annoying bug that just popped up. Something that is(looks) fairly easy to fix, but it's something that needs to be fixed ASAP.

Infinitenine decided on freedom planet instead of Jurassic park.

in your mind it may not be the right decision, but it wasn't a bad one
Will contact you regarding it though, might be impossible for me.

It took 10 minutes for someone to snatch that from a JaseC giveaway. I think that says it all.

Terrifying.

You know I gotta say a lot of times I feel bad for some indie devs. The game can look like complete shit and be complete shit. But in that creators mind they might have done the best they could with the tools they had. Hard to tell but that always bugs me when I see certain stuff on steam and no one has played it or bought it just as a +1. Since to me I would have to take that step back and truly see the product I had made and realize what it was. Which if I realized it was bad, I wouldn't release.
All in all I don't know if I should feel bad for some devs, or if they get what they deserve.
There are my unfiltered and sporadic thoughts for the day.

i duno, depends on the game but in most cases that pop up it's hard to imagine any of these "devs" actually giving a shit for the things they do

reminds me that I need to buy the DIG bundle that includes that before it's over.
Which btw, if anyone is interested, we can get a two pack of the bundle and split the costs(0.75$ for the whole bundle)

lol'd at the mostly positive reviews
thats why you invite a friend over or tell someone you trust who won't just leak your game for free on the web and tell em to try the game and to be brutally honest.

I went on the page, mind telling me what is especially wrong with it?
It's a pretty crummy looking game. Watch Jim Sterling's playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGxo6y_fGZQ

Wow.
It's so sad what Steam's library has become.
One of their publisher's games has the highest discount I've ever seen on Steam: 97% off. Of course it's an Early Access title.

oh man.
If ModBot wants another mystery image.
The Sterling video really explains it all. It's just not something that should be sold. Rather, it reminds me of the type of software a class would make at a Game Design course just to get people used to the steps in making a game as followed by an unimaginative step-by-step guide.
No
