I just noticed I can't use or or or or to search my library on the Steam client, which made quickly searching to see if I owned Dsir impossible (copy/pasting ended as Dsir on the Steam client search bar). I wonder what's wrong.

Ah well.

I remember you gifted me a copy of May's Mysteries a long time ago. I remember this because it's not May's Mysteries. It's May’s Mysteries. Catch the difference? In case you didn't, the latter uses a "smart" apostrophe, rather than a regular apostrophe. Steam client won't accept a copy-pasted smart apostrophe and won't show the game if you just type May's. The website will, but not the client.

I posted in the Steam forum for the game in December 2014, and then bumped January 2016. No response, no actions. No one has posted on the game's forum since. I'll bump it again in January or February 2017. Clearly an abandoned game.

So many birthdays, so little time.
Happy birthday to everyone!


Some of the Paint it Back master paintings are quite something. I should try and not paint too many in a row, at some point I just end up staring them not seeing the solution even when it's obvious.

My Far Cry's take up to much time.

Mafia III's Steam page has now changed the countdown clock to the Midnight Eastern release time their Twitter account said earlier...so that's good

was worried it would be another consoles unlock at Midnight, PC unlocks at 1 PM situation again

I always find abandoned games to be the oddest thing.
You more or less have the game sitting on steam's servers, and no one who will even take a peek at anything the forum posts. You would think someone responsible for getting the game on steam would pop their head in there once in awhile.

If you have a high refresh monitor double check what refresh/fps it's running at, some games are weird and will like launch at 24 fps caps. Unity games on Gsync monitors are especially bad for this sometimes.

Mystery game was Aragami
I'm downloading now. Will definitely play this tomorrow. Looks amazing. Thanks anonymous!

For whatever reason, I never played those Tenchu games on PS1.
I think the only ninja game I've ever played was Ninja Gaiden

I was all set to clean up Dark Souls 2 achievements until I came upon the bell keeper covenant stuff on my checklist. I think I'll pass, covenant achievements are the worst.
