Is there way to disable seeing "likes" on here?
You can use uBlock Origin for that.

Code:
metacouncil.com##.is-active.js-reactionsList.reactionsBar
metacouncil.com##.reaction--1.has-reaction.actionBar-action--reaction.actionBar-action.reaction--small.reaction
metacouncil.com##.reaction--1.reaction--imageHidden.actionBar-action--reaction.actionBar-action.reaction--small.reaction

Did something happen to Steam broadcasts? I remember most of the top 8 having around a few hundreds of viewers. Now it's 7000+ for all of them. Just a sales/holiday bump, or maybe the inclusion on game pages (but that's hidden by default)?
Also, are there really 9000 people watching Kingdom under Fire 2? Something seems off here :p

there is a quest to watch a friend broadcast, so maybe a lot of those streamers got a lot of new friends?

It been like that for a while now, before the sale, traffic has increased dramatically. I don't recognise any of them but maybe it's finally taking off. I hit 10 viewers last time I tried!

Playing FarCry 5 I realize just how much I want and need a FPS GTA! Add in some more RPG mechenics/Depth and it would be my dream game. I know we have Cyberpunk coming but for me I very much would prefer present day and our world.
GTA V plays very well in first-person mode, if you haven't given it a shot already.

Happy New Year friends.
2020 will be an insane year for gaming. I just hope things improve for me financially.
Considering bundles and sub services
You will
I mean if Acti and Team 17 can put their game in a bundle about a month since their release
Why even bother giving them money upfront?
If their initial consumer base, who bought their games to support or because they like the product and really wanted to support, are nothing but a monetary statistic of sorts
The heck should I care about you anyways?

I am a little salty on Yooka 2 on EGS, but on the one hand, if it means more people get to play it, cool, but it shows how games have devalued so much.
Honestly if a game isn't Top Seller on Steam; just wait for a bundle.
If it is Top Seller on Steam for a long period....wait for a bundle still.

I've long decided on waiting out on games earlier this year; I hadn't gotten any Bamco games for one thing. And in 2020, I aim to keep that up...unless it is a classic compilation release kind of thing....that is discounted well....

This sale is probably the sale where I got the most refunds of things I bought. First Transport Fever 2, now The Guild 3. I even want to ask for a refund on Yooka 2 since it's already free on Epic and it will probably be bundled sooner than later but guess I can keep that one, it wasn't super expensive.

Anyway, for all of you living in the future, happy new year and decade, all the best :minos_emperor:

Yeah, Steam broadcasting has steadily been growing it seems.





Also, I totally figured out the Lara Croft Temple of Osiris problem. Well, I figured out why it happens, but not WHY it happens. :blobnerd:

In Windows 10 you can have your "Regional Format" be mixed, like English (Finland) for example. That means that the regional format is formatted the way we normally do it in Finland, but it's all still written in English. This mixing is what's causing the crashing for some reason. If I switch it to Finnish (Finland) or English (United States) the game ends up loading the intro movie with the book just fine.


Durante you said that when you tried it when I asked about it recently it also crashed for you (but didn't back in 2015), I'm kind of dying to know if this weird solution works on your end as well.

Last two quests were easy, here's hoping it continues like that
EDIT:
Yeah, just using a simple feature of the chat

T2 surely loves money and GTA V online updates are clear proof of that, and so does their (often successful) attempts to milk it in every way possible but I don't think this is what the Labor of Love Award meant.

Anyone else having trouble getting the broadcasting quest done? I try to watch my friends broadcast and it just never loads. It will be really annoying if I miss this because of their technical shit.

Also, I could use some more Steam homies if anyone wants to be buds: Steam Community :: Stavers I find a lot of good games I would have otherwise missed through the friend activity feed.

Your friend must approve your viewing I think
