Modbot hates me too. Won't give me Anodyne. for some reason. If anyone else claimed it, it never edited.

Having the same problem.. Has Modbot died?

 

[ratcliffja]

How is FTL? Is it worth $2.49 if you don't really like strategy or space games typically? I know it seems like a dumb question, but I feel like I keep thinking I would want to play stuff like that, but when I downloaded the kerbal space demo I just got really confused.

 

[Cru]

ModBot is making me new friends on Steam lol

 

[EmCeeGramr]

See the trick to high-level ModBot play is to stay up to unreasonably late hours and then hope that the competition is asleep.

Still waiting for the Shuggy key too. ModBot's either just busy or someone threw him a paradox

 

[e36wheelman]

Mostly because I'm scared that if Steam dies, all of what I purchased will too.

For example, I want to try Civ 5, since it seem like a nice entry game for the franchise. But I kinda want to wait for the Platinium version with all the DLC and buy it for 40$ at retail

I'm pretty sure Civ V is Steamworks, so if Steam goes down, your boxed copy won't help much.

 

[def sim]

my head hurts, I think I trust Wario

Works both ways.

Part 2. Have fun with it!

Thanks so much! :O

 

[Almighty]

Some of these keys are old, forgive me if they don't work.

Thank you for Space Rangers. I have been trying to find that game, and Space Rangers 2, for a long time. Thank you very much. I wonder why ModBot is not showing it gave me the key.



Anyway I claimed some more games so now it is time I give back.

Here is FTL for the lucky person. Enjoy.

Yeah my problem is I didn't see the lurker caveat thing before. In other news, I'm making another post in this thread.

I picked up Death to spies, thanks SephirothRK =)

 

[ShizWhiz]

I'm still annoyed that I missed out on Civ V, but there's a good chance that it'll be 75% later on, won't there?

FTL is a somewhat roguelike with a space setting. Kerbal Space Program is a rocket building and flying

and crashing

simulation.

They have nothing in common other than the concept of outer space.

Part 2. Have fun with it!

Both your giveaways were games I really wanted, and apparently bought while drunk because I totally had no idea I had them until I double checked my steam list before entering your giveaway. So it was, like, almost as if you gave them to me.

 

[Rubius]

You're a crazy person.

I know, but still, I feel bad buying a 40$ game for 5$ for some reason, even more if I can get a box and a cd on my shelve if I buy retail.

 

[ratcliffja]

Oh for crying out... I just asked about FTL too. I don't think I'm eligible just yet.

 

[The Illiterati]

I claimed Doc Clock one week ago, and nothing else. Modbot, you owe me.

 

[Franklinator]

Here are some games I'm sure everyone here has, but you never know

Post quicker so you can take a stab at that FTL giveaway a few posts above you

Edit: Too late

 

[deleted]

So amazons Tomb Raider keys ran out - do you guys think they'll get 'new' ones before the steam-deal runs out?

 

[Zombie James]

Some of these keys are old, forgive me if they don't work.

I gave ModBot the code for Anodyne 10 minutes ago and it's not going through since it's still available. Not sure what's going on, but enjoy to whoever gets it.

Ask tony on cag

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Anodyne was already claimed. Someone's name appeared there for a second, then disappeared. If I had to guess, I think SRK edited his post, unintentionally discarding the changes Modbot was putting in at around the same time.

Thanks for clearing that up. I'm still not totally clear on what a roguelike is. Is that just randomly generated content a la Diablo?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

The other problem is that you have to balance your levels of caffeine:blood or else you'll die, which is bad because then you don't get any video games at all!

 

[ShizWhiz]

Those are a great collection of games, nice giveaway

They could replenish the keys if square Enix provide them more keys

Usually involve procedurally generated dungeons, permadeath, generally turn-based but not always, etc. etc.

The isn't something like "a $40 game".
The value of a game changes over time which is reflected in the sale prices.

I'd feel bad if I bought a game that was $5 before for $40.

The CD and box argument is valid if you care about it, but most people in this thread have long stopped.

Cheap games + easily accessible library everywhere > physical crap that I need to store somewhere and move around

 

[The Illiterati]

I gave ModBot the code for Anodyne 10 minutes ago and it's not going through since it's still available. Not sure what's going on, but enjoy to whoever gets it.

Y'know, it seems like none of the big Steam thread honchos are around. When they're gone, it's just just us down here, fighting for scraps!

 

[Omega]

everytime I play CS there's an FTL giveaway lol

the powers that be are making sure I do not win this game and instead forced to buy it

 

[ratcliffja]

The other problem is that you have to balance your levels of caffeine:blood or else you'll die, which is bad because then you don't get any video games at all!

I'm not even drinking caffeine, just sitting here with red eyes while my wife sleeps on the couch. I should probably wake her up and go to bed, but I'm holding out hope for a game I want.

That's amateur level. I have a friend at GCHQ who is routing every PM sent to ModBot straight to me so that I see them before they're posted in the thread.

 

[jtb]

hmmm... I may have spoken too soon on Alan Wake American Nightmare. modbot hasn't sent me a key yet (or a reply to my register request either D

 

[DyslexicAlucard]

So do I need five posts in this thread to be eligible for the ModBot giveaways, even if I have five or more in the main Steam thread?

Oh well, I was just looking at Reign of Conflict. I actually can't find that game on Steam or gameplay/a trailer of it on YouTube. Is it supposed to say Reign: Conflict of Nations?

Either way, no biggie ^_^.

On a sale-related note: I wonder if it'd be profitable to horde cards now while people are selling them for dirt-cheap to buy more games, and then sell them later when the market is back from the Steam Sale crash.

Help, anyone? Stump?

 

[Rubius]

I'm pretty sure Civ V is Steamworks, so if Steam goes down, your boxed copy won't help much.

It is, but at least with a box, I can pirate it with a proof that I own it. Just collector mindset talking. I'm always thinking how it would be nice to craft DVD cases with Steam sides, and a copy of the game burned in each cases. Just for display purposes.

 

[sapsari]

Some of these keys are old, forgive me if they don't work.

Thanks for the Defenders of Ardania. But I still hate you for killing Aerith ^^.

Hotline Miami was the top one by far when Stump posted the list.

Hotline Miami then FTL, Stump posted it earlier I think.

the last time Stump made a list it was Hotline Miami iirc

Feels like FTL is the most give game
