You know what needs to be done.

Are you suppose to get a 'receipt' from Modbot if you enter a giveaway?


You're only notified if you win.
 
Please tell me the qualitative merits of the length in relation to how good a game is.

A game that starts with
"Im at home. Nobody here"
and ends with
"My sister is a lesbian"
in like 2 audio messages cant be that good.

Also 1 hour for exploring without any real interaction is just plain boring. Dear Esther was the same but at least that game gave us some beautiful landscapes and something to think. Gone Home just throws us some messages at some random order at us in a normal house with nothing really interesting to see. Also the story isnt that interesting.
 
Oh, looks like I'm now locked out of even spending what Steam wallet funds I have left over?

That's fun.

Edit: Oh, it's just an entire lockout from buying anything on Steam whatsoever. Even more fun. You know, Valve, an email or message to this effect would be useful. I'd like to know why and for how long my account is broken. Something more than a generic "oops, something messed up!" would be nice.

How do you riposte in witcher? So far I've just been mashing my 99 light hit combo and throwing fire, the little icon for riposte hasn't been appearing at all when I hold the parry button.

Heads up people: for the next 16 minutes, Inquisitor is 85% off at GoG.
The price is $2.24 = 1.65e, and that's the deluxe version with the soundtrack, artbooks and all! The price of the deluxe version at Steam even with -66% sale is 4.41 euros while non-deluxe goes for 3 euros.

Toma's glowing review and random strategy tips here

Grabbed. Thanks

2 games i've just got sitting in my inventory, someone have at them!
 
I generally do not like games like Gone Home, but I wouldn't be surprised if, like Lucas Pope's success, the product itself is really damn good at presenting a particular story or theme. The same goes for The Stanley Parable, which is in my eye the first and last game to tackle its subject matter, such is how simultaneously clever and redundant the concept is.

Till Stump goes mad and programs Modbot to taunt the losers.

"Why don't you have one of your friends give you the game? Oh that's right! HAHAHAHA"

Finger crossed that Kerbal Space Program gets the community vote. I really want to gift that game to a friend. Had so much fun with it. Amazing game. Such a great feeling landing your first kerbal on the mun. Now getting back, that's an entirely different feeling.

Go Team Purple!

Just a random question: is it statistically possible for a game whose price was already sliced off by 75% to receive a further discount with a daily / flash deal?

For example there's La-Mulana that I'm very interested in, but right now I'm holding off for the possibility of a better deal.

I believe yes.
You should wait in any case, except when it's Bad Rats or Marlow Briggs.

Gone Home proves that it is

Biggest thanks to trolho for his generous giveaway of Fez!

I've always wanted to try it out, despite my genuine antipathy towards its author. Thanks again for allowing me this chance for free! :)

La-Mulana had the 75% during the whole winter sale and went on sale for 90% if I recall correctly. So yeah, the chance should be there :)
 
I hope those games get some further discounts : Soundodger+, Magicka, OMG Zombies, Cloudbuilt, Long live the queen, Year Walk, Farsky, Retro Game Crunch, Broforce,Völgarr,Always sometimes Monster, Pac Man, Half Minute Hero 2, Fist Puncher and Super Puzzle Platform Deluxe.
 
If i activate the steal 100 points token...do i also get those 100 points? relevent since im on team blue

meh its only a few cents....does anyone know ?

why? blue's so far in the lead and the number of points you score doesn't increase your chances at winning the top-3 games from your wishlist. as long as you score at least one point you're fine

Let me know if there is a problem or something redeeming the game. Since it is my first giveaway, I want to have sure I did everything right ;)
