Community MetaSteam | December 2019 - Halo! Is It Me You're Looking For?

[PC-tan]

Okay people are very strange. Pushsquare or what ever it's called is really weird. I see some articles about "why Half Life Alyx should come to PSVR" and stuff like that and people say ya it should come to PSVR and then you see stuff like them making fun of some people on PC wanting the Ghost of T (The Sucker Punch game). Double standards I tell you.

Oh and Pushsquare even reached out to a Valve employee to ask about the possibility of the game on PSVR.

If anyone wants to try it out, there's an old alpha available on itch.io:

Raccoo Venture - PC Game by Diego Ras

Awake the sacred Power of Guardians in a classical journey inspired by the golden classics from 90s.

We talk about Steam, GOG, Switch, console and all kinds of stuff here.

Dont forget anime!

Eastward, Haven, etc. Nice!

 

[Taborcarn]

So I guess they're not calling it System Shock 3 anymore? Just System Shock?

Wasnt there a remake of System Shock 1 or 2 in the works?

Steam will air The Game Awards live in 4K Ultra High Definition, feature The Game Awards Sale, and offer Steam viewers the opportunity to win a Valve Index VR headset and free game drops throughout the live broadcast.

 

[eonden]

Here be quote

I love how you are "Index drop? NAAAAH RANDOMN FREE DROP BABI"

 

[TioChuck]

SKATEBIRBBBBBBB!!!!!

 

[yuraya]

Give me the Elden Ring demo you cowards

 

[madjoki]

Index drops at 3am.

 

[Arsene]

Really looking forward to Haven so ill definitely be trying that demo. Eastward, System Shock and Skatebird too.

that's the System Shock 1 remake. which I believe is chugging along at a good pace. It's System Shock 3 that's had a bit rougher development and is more in limbo.

Oh you bet your ass I'm gonna be playing Carion and SkateBird.

 

[Wok]

madjoki You are right about the "King", he is milking anime: he has bought the latest and most expensive anime games and has been farming their cards.

What I don't get is whether he is able to craft booster packs for these games on his bot accounts. If he were abusing the refund system, Valve would punish him, right? If there is a trick to bypass the crafting constraints, it would be easy to farm money by being the first seller of profile backgrounds for stuff like Stein:GATE (lashman's preferred game), that would be insane.

He forgot to set one of his bot account to private, and it turns out there are ~ 1,500 games, and 120,000 gems on this bot account. The Steam level is ~ 90, with ~ 200 badges! That is similar to my main account. Crazy.

PS: He bought the Wolf Girl anime game on his bot account. That is the game for which the rare profile background was sold for 50€. And he has farmed it for 3 hours, so he cannot refund it. Imagine buying expensive games to farm cards and craft booster packs on bot accounts! And making a profit out of it!

 

[gabbo]

lol ... smooth

I'm just jealous, not to worry. it's all in good fun

 

[Trisolarian]

So, steam is dropping free games during the game awards!!

Man, between got, egs and steam giveaways, I m back in the game peeps. (Lol I will have to move soon into a studio apt and I'm gonna have to leave the old rig behind, $250 amd 2200U laptop here I come!)

 

[PC-tan]

RIP, I will be working during that time. I guess Valve is going to be more active this year for the event since it will feature their new flagship title

 

[Taborcarn]

Oh maybe that's it... System Shock 3 is being developed by OtherSide Studios, they're not mentioned here.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Wasn't Haven one of the EGS exclusives?

 

[MJunioR]

Wasn't Haven one of the EGS exclusives?

no, and god forbid it from becoming one

 

[Wok]

Wasn't Haven one of the EGS exclusives?

No. Haven is by GameBakers. You are mistaking it with the sequel of HLD.

 

[fantomena]

Omg, gotta download and play fast.

 

[eonden]

Steam doesnt tend to remove demo licences from you, so you should be able to download and then wait to play them.

So many System Shocks makes it normal lol.

I think "ND should make HL3" is the hottest take I've ever read. Like, no offence to PS folks, I love what ND does myself, but they aren't even half of Valve when it comes down to actual gameplay and environmental storytelling, full stop.

Yeah, I really like ND games, especially Uncharted 2, 3, 4 and TLOU, but there is not much gameplay and environment interactivity in those and Valve loves interactivity and physics in games.

If ND did HL3 would it really be HL3? Of course not.

 

[Angelo]

Super excited for Eastward, Chicory, Carrion, and Spiritfarer.
This is great!

 

[madjoki]

But need exclusives for list wars.

I mean, if we go that route why not to call Kamiya, at least Gordon's crowbar chain combo will be awesome to look at.

 

[Arulan]

What if we get a 48 hour Half-Life: Alyx demo? I'll be on a plane then, with no access to VR for weeks.

No worries, I'll play it for you.

Breh this is the platform where people could extend the RE2 Remake demo beyond its 30 min. limit.
We will find a way

Why did you put out that possibiltiy in my head?

Half-Life will turn into melodrama, but Druckmann will do the same, so, no harm done.

 

[Arulan]

No worries, I'll play it for you.

 

[Wildebeet]

I assume it'll be the same Carrion demo that they already put on Steam. It's a ton of fun to tear things up with that goop monster.

holy shit Eastward. That's the very top of my wishlist.

3AM? Yeah, i'll be in bed. I'll catch up on The Keighleys the next day.

 

[Alexandros]

Gaben is moneyhatting demos, smh

You need to react to this post in order to see this content.

 

[Stevey]

Any idea why this wont sell?

 

[lashman]

Gaben is moneyhatting demos, smh

i only wonder how many of those games with demos will end up being egsclusive ... probably at least half

 

[TioChuck]

Because convertion, you are seeing in your currency, but in reality the buy order is in U$.

 

[Alexandros]

Plot twist: Gaben gave Keighley access to Half-Life: Alyx on the condition that no EGS exclusives are showcased at the game awards. So not only is Valve moneyhatting demos, they're straight up blackmailing journalists to quell Tim's revolution. Read all the details in Nathan Grayson's shocking exposè, coming soon.
