Have you ever wanted to dig through someone's computer, and then spy on them the rest of the day? Even if you don't that's how uncomfortably close this game is. The story is front and center here and the gameplay is nothing more than a piece to tell that story. It reminds me of Analogue a Hate Story in some ways. Since before booting up the game you explore a fake desktop, where you can find numerous info and files. Then once booted into the game, it's like really playing a mindless mmo. It does it's job of making you feel like you're playing this game just to talk to someone else, all the while checking messages from other friends to get more from the story. It only took me an hour to play, but I would definitely say it's worth trying out. Especially at the $1 price on humble for it in the current bundle. Considering it's length I don't want to go into specifics on the story, but it kept me hooked for it's short duration. Even if I knew where it was going. It want's to tell a message and it does just that. My biggest complaint is that I wish there was a bit more of an epilogue to it all.

Isn't the epilogue
that she made a game to tell the story
?
 
I think I have the Deluxe Edition, but not the complete edition. I don't know how I can tell though

At any rate, thanks! I think I'll grab the SP

easy way to check is go to the Main Menu when you boot up the game and click Additional Content > Acquired Content

that will show what you already have installed

what if, like the hit film series the purge, there was one day where everyone on steam could permanently remove one game from sale. . . . .

RIP Far Cry 2.

Also I should continue my campaign for a purge day on GAF. One permaban per person, no exceptions, not even mods are safe.

I would remove CS:GO and fix the cheater problem

I would be heralded as the one true king of the seven kingdoms, and name you the hand of the king for giving me this brilliant idea.

For you.
After watching a few more WD 2 stuff, its definitely a buy from me. Game looks great with the parkour, co-op, and finally hacking cars.

I like CSGO cheaters, they make the match more interesting.

I usually save up for an AWP and fish out the cheater for free dinks.
 
Who are all those Twitch dum dums (well except for TotalBiscuit)?

And also remove Far Cry 2? Nah son, that's my favorite. Remove the bad WB PC ports would be the first victims of the Steam Purge.

I like the looks of Mankind Divided's Breach mode. Should be pretty fun to solve puzzles for a while and this way microtransactions won't be in the main game.
 
If anyone is interested in collecting potentially rare Steam stuff the current Groupees software bundle has a typing instructor software, but the keys activate a beta Mac version instead of the Windows version Steam sells. Not sure what's going to happen when they get this fixed or if they will fix it.

My favorite game will always be on a disc (well one disc and 3 installation discs), check and mate.

Well... I'll open an exception for you then, and instead of getting rid of your favorite game I'll burn all Miku merchandise existent out there >:D

Hand of Fate is fucking legit...

Going to buy the DLC in Summer Sale for sure, and I hear it's getting a sequel?

Does Humble Bundle have any plans to come out with a desktop client? I have so many DRM free games there now.

Last I heard, they weren't working on anything and were instead focusing on improving their current web-based account system and game delivery.

Fuck cheaters.

Such a screwed up mentality.

Yea whether it's because you're not a good player but want to achieve the rank of a good player, or just trying to piss people off and make them waste their time... I don't get the mentality. It's too bad Valve aren't as harsh as Blizzard on cheaters, imo one VAC ban should disqualify you from playing any other game that's VAC secured.

I really don't buy the whole "it's only a CoD VAC" that every single person with a ban says.

That would be fine by me. At least half the games in my "unclaimed keys" list are, in fact, claimed :l All the various ways of navigating my library there are a nightmare really

Personally having seen those threads before, I'd prefer to have fewer more interesting recommendations than the kitchen sink approach. Like instead of 100 write-ups, maybe just 30 curated write-ups and then a bunch of text listings. I know a lot of other people prefer the opposite, so I can't say if this is feedback worth hearing or not.

I prefer this also. With the kitchen sink approach of like 4 page of lists, by the 3rd and 4th post I get bored looking through them... a curated list would be better, and other people can always post suggestions of their own IMO, makes the thread more active too since people may give suggestions rather than 20-30 posts of "great list OP!"

Just finished Her Story. Took me about 2 hours and came away enjoying it way more than I thought I would. It really makes you feel like a detective. It's really interesting piecing the story together in your own way. Since you shouldn't be seeing it all in orders. I was getting big pieces through regular play and when I finally opt to get the rest of the clips with the guide, I was surprised to have done so much by myself. It's definitely a game where you should strive to see all of the story. Mainly since it's so good and very well acted. It's currently a dollar in the Humble Narrative bundle and it's worth far more than that.

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.
Enhanced Steam has been updated to version 8.6. This release includes the following changes:
  • Added an item counter to both party's item selection in trade offer windows
  • Added a filter box to wishlist pages, making it easy to find games by name
  • Wishlist sort and filter options are now in a drop down menu, rather than links
  • Added a new wishlist sort option to sort by discount dollar amount
  • Video player HD settings will now be saved between page loads
  • Wishlist totals for large wishlists will display after pressing a button, improving performance
  • Fixed a bug that caused highlighting to break on activity pages
  • Fixed a bug that caused coupons not to display correctly on store pages
  • Fixed a bug that caused "Not Interested" tags to not show on continuous scrolling search results
  • Fixed a bug that caused users homepage carousel to be malformed in some cases
  • Fixed a layout bug with regional price comparison on sale items
  • Gamefly has been renamed to Direct2Drive in price comparisons
  • References to the EU2 region have been removed from regional price displays
  • Closed stores Shinyloot, Adventure Shop, GameTap, GetGames, and Gameolith were removed from comparisons
This update is available for Google Chrome and should update itself automatically within the next 60 minutes. The beta version of the Firefox extension is now available on firefox.enhancedsteam.com

Once again, a HUGE "thank you" goes out to contributor JoiNNN for helping immensely with this release, a lot of these features wouldn't have been possible without him.

As always, please let me know if you encounter any issues with this release.
