I tried launching it (v0.5, in case there's a newer version around) and got the number of eligible games right and started idling right away.

Meh, opinions are opinions. I just never thought I'd met someone who would hate Max Payne 1, but somehow love Max Payne 2
edit: oh, and I only ever downvote the useless reviews (mostly on Amazon.it, especially those written ALL IN CAPS), not the ones who don't share my opinion.
you beat it in one sitting? wow
I mean i know the game is short but damn. that gameplay was too boring for me to play it in more than 30 minute chunks
Ah, so the pagination, which I don't have, is the culprit. Good for me then!
let's hope he succeeds in this endeavour of utmost importance! I no longer can imagine my steamlife without idlemaster, it's too scary even to imagine, or remember.
it only works if you have less than 200 games with badges, I have much more than that, it doesn't work for me anymore (._.)
edited: so slow... sooooo sloooow
The Idle Master idles in alphabetic order.So unless you set in another order and haven't idled all games in the first page then you are safe until jshackles has fixed itnvm
my first page is clean as a bold head, that's my problem
The Idle Master idles in alphabetic order.
Blade Symphony take hours to idle through all the cards
Yager is the only reason I'm interested in Dead Island 2
I remember seeing the PC version on retail shelves here in Germany back in the day. Didn't even know it used to be an Xbox exclusive. According to Wiki the port never released outside of EU.
I played some more of Q*bert: Rebooted, if it's possible to like and hate a game simultaneously, that's me and Q*bert. Classic mode is throwing me around like paper doll too (><)
Also not sure if it's something wrong with Jazzpunk (a game has evil aura or something (><) but I got really sick while playing it yesterday, maybe just coincidence, I hope... the game can't be evil, can it?

Oh god no. I was on Chapter 3 before. I started the game like a month ago. So yeah I played chapter 3-15 in one sitting Lol
Anyway, I just read an article on IGN about the truth behind Spec Ops and goddamn my mind is blown away even more now. This game is so trippy!
You are not alone, the game causes motion sickness to many. The solution to this is to reduce mouse smoothness or whatever smoothness there is in the settings.
I reduced it, but I also haven't played longer sessions than first time I played it.

Posted a review of Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
http://steamcommunity.com/id/deques/recommended/250900/
Have you watched Apocalypse Now? Has less cover shooting, but overall I think it's better than Spec Ops was (not that I think Spec Ops was bad).
MP1 is Max Payne 1?
Because, yes, Max Payne 1 is better than Spec Ops. It's better than most games
I told you Copons had poor taste in vidyas
I never have motion sickness in games, expect slight discomfort in descent games when I lose direction, so I'm not sure it's that. (><)
Apocalypse Now was great for its time, I'm not sure it has such effect now as back then.
so it is an evil game!
Me neither, but Jazzpunk gave me motion sickness.
That 60fps is what makes the new release soo good, I wish big AAA games takes notice that frame rate can actually contribute a lot to their games and optimize their games to run at 60fps all the time (with some vision).
This thread, this poor thread
I guess it should have been expected, but it hurts nevertheless.
this will help cheer you:
This thread, this poor thread
I guess it should have been expected, but it hurts nevertheless.
What's worrying is that Stump hasn't posted since the move.
MRORANGE as well IIRC? Guess there will be no December thread. :\
Just noticed that Isaac is bestseller (#1) followed by Banished. I'm OK with this, even if I'm not a fan of Isaac, I agree it's a great game.
Even assuming Orange isn't around, a mod could just copy the OP for the new thread (what is commonly referred to as a "copy bump") and PM Orange so that he knows to update it. It kindasorta happened before a few months ago in that Orange wasn't around when the thread of the time hit its limit part way through the month.
It's quite amazing what just a couple of days can do to some folks after the move. We've still got 24 days and about 140 pages to go before the wall come tumbling down! And now I'm happy as I have The Style Council stuck in my head.
Edit: Fuck me, if ever a songs lyrics were more appropriate.

weren't you supposed to take over Mrorange's job of creating a new threads for a while, or was it in an alternative universe?
That was definitely an alternate universe as A) I don't do threads and B) I suggested if he couldn't do it we spread around the responsibility until he would be back to keep things fresh and more like a communit... Shit it's my fault!
If you've got the overlay on there should be a circular indicator to show the picture is saving under the stats read out. Bloody hard to see in the default fuchsia and not something you'd really be looking at when playing but it's good to test things out before getting to far in and it's too late. Some games these days hate Afterburner's OSD and the screenshot and record functions.

Or... This is the last Steam thread gaf will ever have. The true reason we were banished to community. And that's why no mod or admin has posted in the thread since!
P.S. I have a good deal on tinfoil if anyone is looking.
Don't worry guys. Before the thread dies we just rebuild it into a proper Waifu thread.
What the shit?
yeah that's the one time i didn't turn the overlay on, lol, I saw it running after I quit the game in the taskbar but there were nothing in the folder, tried running the game again and it works, so yeah I'm going to enable the overlay and take a few screenshots first to make sure it's working next time, or maybe I'll just use gedosato, don't know why I didn't..

I don't think it's that, otherwise the issue would be more widespread instead of isolated to a single country. Ubi is just the one and only publisher that's still scared stiff because of the relatively ancient threat from UK retailers to not stock games that are available on Steam.
only thing we know that work on translation is still going on
Murf. Well, I won't buy anymore AssCreed anyways.
Are we a Media Outlet yet?

The sad part is I'm noticing this trend in topics for some time, so I was barely visiting the gaming discussion page and I usually only visit the threads I'm subscribed.
Nice to see that moving us has freed up space on the main page for more important topics. -_-
I think those are general 25% vouchers.
If not... maybe for you to gift and trade for vouchers you actually want?
I would vote for gog, though. In 2015 everybody uses galaxy, nobody remembers what steam, uplay or origin is, not to mention wb client or whatever that was supposed to be. Also Witcher is everybody's GOAT from now on till Cyberpunk releases. Who's with me?
Although, I hope Ubi isn't that delusional as EA is (><)
But why would this affect selling the digital games on Steam in the UK? The physical versions of Ubisoft games don't activate on Steam (I wish...), they're all Uplay games.

I think the 'reward' is general purpose 25% vouchers which you can use on any game on the site.
The thing is, they give out those vouchers freely anyway so I'm not sure why they think people would jump through hoops to earn them as a reward.
Because Steam is, by all estimations, the most popular DD service by a significant margin, plus as far as developed nations are concerned the preference for digital over physical among PC gamers has seen significant growth in recent years -- 70% of Watch Dogs' PC sales were digital, for example.
That'd mean me moving to the GOG thread, though. Which right now would probably be something like moving from Siberia to Antarctica. >.>
I wish we had numbers of how the same game sells on steam and uplay, steam and origin, because both Ubi and EA are still in it for money, so unless digital on steam is still smaller than other sales, this all thing makes no sense. Now, if it is really smaller part of sales, I still would like to know they reasoning what sacrificing those sales does. Increase other sales? By the same amount? I doubt that.
It's like whole gaming industry is some incarnation of chaos, it's really hard to comprehend why things are being handled as they are, nothing makes sense most of the time. (><)
to move there, you have to find it first!

Maybe they are trying to build a brand name and sacrificing sales is a calculated risk.
