The Steam Awards 2019 Winners
The Steam Community has spoken and we are proud to announce the winners of this year's Steam Awards. Thanks to everyone who participated, see you again next year!
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised since the average gamers hate reading. ("If I want to read in a game, I'll read a book instead! --someone on ERA, circa 2018)
Weird to see Gears 5 being nominated for Story rich. Outside of maybe 1 or 2 interesting cut scenes I don't recall anything special about the story/narrative.
Still good to see it being nominated for something I guess. It was one of those games for me that didn't fit any of those categories so I left it out.
Also Destiny 2 nominated for GOTY instead of visual style or better with friends?

Discovery queue will offer trading cards.
Lol, believe it not, those are the people WHO would be most likely to say, "no big deal" because they're in 100%, one way or another. This is going to lose some more casual fans.
Best Star Wars game was KoToR.
For steam awards, CONTROL FOR EVERYTHING.
Hopefully, the price stabilizes around 0.24€.
Currently:
What do you think, madjoki? Am I too greedy? Should I buy for 0.26€ instead? Or be greedier and aim for 0.22€?
Edit: Actually, there is no proof that one can turn items obtained by crafting Winter 2019 badges into gems.
I will buy my packs for 0.26€ before the price is increased. :0)

KotOR? That ancient game I tried earlier this year. which has such a horrible combat system and UI that I ended up having more fun tinkering with my Steam Controller than actually playing it? Thanks but I pass
Ep 1 Racer is good stuff too. Dark Forces is too labyrinthic for my taste, but it's not bad. And Battlefront 2 (the classic one) is fantastic.
2049 may have been one of the most beautiful movies ever. Deakins is the GOAT and crazy that was his first one
I remember rage quitting Ep1 Racer just about every single time I played it. Those N64 controllers were getting expensive.
Hey, I have a favor to ask from anyone with Lara Croft and Temple of Osiris. Does it work for you? For me I can start the game and look at the menus just fine, but as soon as I hit the NEW GAME button, it either hangs or crashes.
I know dex has played it recently and didn't have the issue I'm having, so I'm wondering if I can narrow down it to something.
Only thing I can think of is that it's somehow Ryzen's fault at the moment.

I was pretty into the circus entering this gen but probably only because in 05 for 360/ps3 I wasn't browsing forums or really doing much of anything on the internet. But this time I'm 7 years older and I see the same exact arguments and theories being posted and it's exhausting to me so I don't even follow the rumor threads anymore. No one learned anything from last time, as no one ever learns or remembers anything from the past in general. I literally can't take that nonsense anymore lol.

I came from watching it myself.So I saw the new Star Wars, it was alright, in that "it's just a cosplay fan movie" kind of way. But the cinema cheered and clapped when it ended, so take that as you will.
And... me and my wife enjoyed it at lot. A very nice surprise, especially considering the very low expectations we had, the negative reviews I knew the film was receiving, and the "tough cookie" that is following up that disaster that came before it.
The reaction at the cinema was very positive as well. People cheered during certain events of the film, and everyone seemed to have a good time.
Couldn't ask for more, from a "popcorn" movie.
It definitely managed to wash the bad taste left by that joke of a previous movie, and offer a nice send-off to these characters.
Me and my wife couldn't be different, in the sense that I like the original trilogy, and have plenty of media (games, comics, ...) from the Star Wars universe (though I surely never dressed up as any of the characters
, nor did I went on twitter to badmouth the people behind the previous movie), and she has the minimum, and passable interest in the series, in the sense that she knows who Luke, Leia and Han Solo are, and not much more. She also really disliked the previous movie, and rather liked this one, so I would say the film managed to entertain someone who didn't know much of the callbacks to previous films.I really don't understand the negative reviews I read.
Is it a space opera, in the style of the original trilogy? Yes, it is.
Is there a lot of "fan service", in the sense that there's plenty of old characters appearing, references to events and places from the original trilogy? Yes, there are. But, unlike what some people think, I don't believe it's a bad thing. This is a sequel to a well-liked trilogy of films, it's ok to treat the old films and characters with reverence. Criticizing a Star Wars film because it features what people would expect from a... Star Wars film is just weird.
There's nothing wrong with treating the events and characters of the original trilogy with some reverence. Especially considering that, if people are still taking about the series 4 decades later, it's because they were, and still are, fun and well liked.
Apparently, some people want everyone killed off, characters (both old and new) being completely forgotten about through extended periods of a film, and just a mess of a narrative, that manages to pretty much undo any decent impressions characters, both old and new, left in episode 7.
Well, for those people, if Rian Johnson does his trilogy of SW films, you'll probably get that in spades.
If you just like a good old space opera, with alien planets and species, cool action scenes, x-wing fighters shooting stuff, and good guys kicking bad guy butt, you'll probably have a good time watching the film.
If I had to point something negative about it, is that the story shown should have been two movies. It covered a lot of ground, in a fast pace, early on, basically to undo all the crap that was done in the previous movie.
And it managed to do just that, since I once again started to "care" about Finn, and Poe, and Rey, and Kylo, and all the other guys and gals, new and old, good or bad.
All in all, as someone who grew up with the original trilogy, I would say this was a nice closure for this story arc.

Wonder if Valve is sensible enough to make those non-tradeable/marketable to prevent people with total of 1000000's bots to abuse shit out of it.
I actually enjoyed Rogue One, Solo and The Mandalorian a whole lot more than TFA/TLJ. The reason is probably the same as why I enjoyed KOTOR/KOTOR2. I think the Star Wars universe is large enough that it could tell more stories about its people, rather than following the Skywalkers' stories for four decades.
I can't really help you with that, I did play the game completely, but that was quite long ago (my achievements tell me it was in mid-2015).
Fake edit:
I just installed the game and it crashed on load.
So at least I can confirm it's not your Ryzen, but maybe Windows 10, or some update which broke it.
I don't think so. At least, the cards obtained by crafting badges are already marketable. I have sold mine before the price decreases too much. That would be hard to explain to the general public that cards obtained with discovery queue are different, no?

Intel has become the Disney of CPUs.

Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit.
Just installed the game and it loads new game just fine. 8700k, 1080ti latest drivers, latest win10. What's your specs Parsnip? Maybe a problem with rtx lineup?
I actually tried it on my intel integrated graphics laptop, so it's not an RTX issue for sure.
I'm on GTX 1070.
I suspected Ryzen since it wasn't out at the time and I think I recall dex being on intel, but looks like that can be ruled out.
I recently updated to the latest Win10, with both 1903 and now 1909 crashing the same way.
Frustrating.
I also suspected some kind of bink related issue since I think the video with the book plays when you start a new game, but not really sure how to test or even bypass it if that were the case.
Capcom has completely removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Resident Evil 2 Remake

It's just a meme? Americans don't clap at movies in real life?

Yeah, it's weird. this guy has the same specs as me and he too have the same problem as you. I did installed the game to my hard drive, not my nvme. But other than that i dunno.
You can try renaming or deleting the intro to see if it's bik related or not. the game loads just fine without the intro, i've tested it. just rename or delete LC2Intro,bik from Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris\movies\pc
lashman I thought of your comments on Steam's Argentina pricing in the Terminator thread when I read this.
steamcommunity.com
So it turns out the trend of games having odd price increases in Argentina are likely deliberate, and at Valve's recommendation. Seems like a great way to punish people who didn't do anything wrong.
How about you fix Budget Cuts 1 first :: Budget Cuts 2: Mission Insolvency General Discussions
The first game is still unplayable... I have now lost my save game 3 times due to it crashing while saving in the elevator and saving the crashed state. I cant beat the game, I want too... but I cant. I am exited about this game but I cant trust this game, if they never bothered to fix the first...
Probably aren't gonna be much in the winter sale that hasn't already been on sale every other day the past several weeks
Except maybe Koei Tecmo games, can't wait for their 40% off

In steam trading, how many gems do you need to make a sack with??
I want to preface this with the following; I've never been to a convention, I've never dressed up, I don't own any star wars toys, merch or even a T-shirt.
I'm the most in depth reader of the old EU that I've ever met and I run a library club for discussing geeky things. The movies are whatever to me at this point, as I haven't bothered to get into the 'CANNON' EU and nothing will erase the fact that I've probably read over 70 old EU novels since 2000.

Rey and Kylo Ren.... this kiss, no fucking thanks. I actually liked them remaining enemies in TLJ (along with other parts of the movie, not the stupid chase though) so ugh. Also, return of palpy was one of the stupidest parts of the old EU and I didn't want that.

I wish it was a meme
There was like a standing ovation clapping spree when I was in theaters ages ago for Age of Ultron
The culture has been well-integrated to Indonesia nowadays. People are also clap in theaters, especially in superhero movies.
People only clap at the end of movies they like. You people want to shame me for clapping at the end of Mad Max Fury Road, then the joke's on you because I have no diginity left to lose.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with clapping after good entertainment, movies included. Get off your high horse already.
I watched a lot of blockbuster movies in cinema and the only time I saw people clap was at Pacific Rim premier. And that's by mecha weebs.
I suppose clapping after the movie is acceptable, just don't do it before that.
Seeing some of those clips of people cheering during Avengers Infinity War and I'm like glad I don't go to the movies anymore.
Tried moving the install to a hdd just to rule it out too, no luck there either.

Oh that works for you? Then I guess it's not a bink issue either since even if I rename or delete the intro video, it still crashes.
