It means this was greenlit in the first place, right? From the screens it seems he used RPG maker and even dare to ask for DirectX 12 haha.
Why are you discriminating against people who have feet for hands? What have they ever done to you?

Oh lol, dx 12! I assume he had to get greenlit but I can't find the greenlight game. I found this other paint drying sim though: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=398745942
Also i just want to point out that Remedy did closing doors on cars in Alan Wake before Massive did it with The Division xD

I have the first Witcher and it is soooo clunky, is it okay to skip this entirely?

What if it's taking foot fetish to a whole new level?
They're probably not respecting the 3 seconds rule.
SWTOR, WoW, Wildstar and Guild Wars 2 are all worth your time. Pick your poison and say good bye to steamgaf.
They're all clunky

There's at least one game on Steam that pulls its achievement images from sources like Harry Potter and Gurren Lagann.
thanks for bringing this to my attention
that's awesome
but my feet are super clean -___-
but does it get better?
So few people mention The Secret World. It should always be offered as an alternative to all those fantasy MMOs.

Once you get inside the city it's way better.

I loved LOTRO, but it's dead now.
Guild Wars 2 is great, as is Elder Scrolls Online but they're buy to play.

Thank you! I want this game so badly >.<
oh I dunno, I don't have the courage to play TW1 after hearing about the combat and I lost interest a couple hours into both TW2 and TW3. They could get better but I'll never know.
Everything before the expansion is free in GW2, actually.
It also has a really friendly GAF guild. Things have definitely simmered down a bit since the expansion so it's not the most active ever, but there's plenty of friendly people to chat with and learn from.

The Witcher 1's bogged down in its mechanics, but the storytelling is as good as ever. And it's where Shani came from (IIRC she's not in the books), so it's pretty much required at this point.
Great giveaway. I can't say enough good things about Stardew Valley. Anything less than pure praise is selling it short.
The Witcher 2 picks up right after the ending of Witcher 1. I loved both entries and I am sure that you will get used to the Euro-jank after a few hours. I wouldn't skip it.

So Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut is a good time. It's not a pretty game, but there's something oddly satisfying about crouch-walking through a level without ever being detected. Also, Adam reminds me of Geralt and that's always a good thing.
Not sure about first-to-third person views though. I'd like it a lot more if it was 100% third-person, Batman Arkham style.

So regarding trading cards. I was under the impression that multi-game idling shouldn't work at all or should work at a diminished drop rate but I find the following:
-Once games pass the mandatory 2 hour mark (
) if I have them all simultaneously idling then put my computer into sleep mode I'll get drops for all of them or nearly all of them when I wake the computer back up.
-I then simultaneously idle 5 of them (I tried doing like 18 and I didn't record time for any :S) and after around 30 minutes Iater I get a 1 new item in inventory message but there are 5 cards. It tends to play out like that if I idle one game too.
After those two drops it becomes unpredictable. I'm guessing these drops occur due to passing some sort of time threshold and so are just a side effect of the 2 hour wait.

Even with these "features" drop rates are still shit compared to the days gone past. If these thing were known about before sorry for spilling the secret sauce...
Does this mean that Valve just blindly approve cards? I've heard they do approve them. I guess if you don't have a "I'll Kill you, Gabe" card anything goes.
This whole thing is weird, who is Ruby and how is this their first game on steam? I can't find anything on greenlight.
Why is this guys face the icon? http://m.timeslive.co.za/thetimes/?articleId=11631254
what is happening
man we really take our free online for granted on PC... was thinking about replaying Bloodborne, but my PS+ sub has lapsed so you cant see messages, you cant use summons, anything related to being online, bummer :/

Its a shame that American Nightmare isn't even a quarter as good as Alan Wake.
They are supposed to approve the cards manually, yes. I remember a few anime games having delays on their trading cards because their initial versions were rejected by Valve.
I am playing BB offline and to be honest I don't care about online stuff in this game
I don't even use offline summons and I am doing every boss alone XD But it does sucks for example for Rocket League. Sometimes I want to play few quick matches but I can't.I don't know, I found the combat in Alan Wake felt more and more tidious near the end. It wasn't even that it was hard, not once you memorized where enemies where coming from for certain encounters, but it still felt like busy work to get to the next interesting story event.
I just hope QB can be the first Windows Store game that actually just works. Even if it is completely neutered in terms of options, at least it should run somewhat well, if you are within the recommended specs and use reasonable settings.
One working game, could be all that is needed to remedy the Windows Store.
Well hey it could have been an XB1 exclusive forever so I'll take what we can get I suppose. The wait for Alan Wake PC was pretty long since they went through an external distributor IIRC.
whoa there's 4 rock band games?
no wonder those games are dead
yo spoilerssssss
I'd probably just start right away unless you're really are into XCOM lore for some reason. It's pretty basic
you lose XCOM: EU really, really badly and spend XCOM 2 trying to rise up as a scrappy rebel force.

Yeah i'm surprised Dark Souls is still kicking after 3 and a half games.
Awesome! I'll start 2 tonight and just chip away at EW on my phone when I'm out of the house. Thanks!
it's really like 5 games if u count demons and bloodborne (i still dont get why you wouldn't count bloodborne)
dark souls doesn't have a ton of microtransactions and peripherals to buy on top of it, which just feels like the wrong thing to pair a yearly game series with. feels like rock band should've been f2p or something.
idk what the upgrades from game to game where tho, i could never afford one of those cool guitars

7 games counting Lego, Beatles, and Green Day.
Really? That's unfortunate, I was planning on playing that next.
I am really enjoying the combat system a whole lot, I am playing it on Nightmare difficulty and I think it provides a really tense experience where you really need to pay extra attention to resource management and do perfect dodges in order to survive.
Hah, nice one.
That is true, I am still on Windows 7 though, partly because of the issues that folks are reporting about Windows 10, but primarily due to a number of games in my back-log that don't seem to work that well on newer operating systems.
