OMG!!!!! I need this.This game looks really cool, :
It's a mix of FPS games like Heretic/Hexen, with RPG elements.
Reminds me of the Witchaven games.

Reminds me of the Witchaven games.
I could definitely handle 30 or even a lower number if it was consistent, but I was getting 9 with annoying drops down to 6 in busier areas lmao.
Guess I should have tried zooming in like Wok suggested.
But they never said anything about Humble Choice!And Disco Elysium, because the dev promised that the game would not appear in a Humble Monthly bundle.
Any news on release date or something (trailer is from 2017..)?This game looks really cool, :

Yes it does, and I'll be honest, I'm not sure how I feel about that. This looks too much like Witchaven, like it hasn't learned any lessons from gaming since, but it is only a reveal trailer - and it is fun to watch people explode to death from punches.
is that... Canadian Tire money?

I'll probably get Disco soon, just trying to finish off my backlog but keep getting distracted by all these new games.

Still no release date. But, the developer posted last month about possibly launching at the end of the year.
The media I took is from the website, which indeed is from the time the game was announced.
He has been posting new media though on his twitter account:
He apparently has a beta test on his Discord channel.
The game is obviously "old school" in terms of look and design, but if you check a bit more about the game, it has a few things on its sleeves (like weapons with poison effects, spell systems, decapitations/gibs, ...).
Additionally, the game is either being done by a single developer, or mainly by a single person with some help, so naturally expectations about its scope should take that into consideration.
By the way, I found a gameplay video of the demo:
Finished Disco Elysium.
What a magnificent piece of videogame writing.
The thought-cabinet ended up being a bit of a letdown conceptually, but the rest of the game is incredible.
Every single dialogue is just a pleasure to read. It really shows just how big a room of improvement there is for a lot of videogame writing.

If I understand, you want to subscribe to Humble now so you get the Classic plan grandfathered in when it switches to Humble Choice. Then you can keep the grandfathered plan as long as you stay subscribed.
I could see where they were trying to go with the story, but it was just executed poorly. The character writing left a lot to be desired too. The platforming I will defend because the movement options are actually pretty fun once you get used to them, but it takes for fucking ever to get them (there's absolutely no excuse for how long it takes you to get an air dash). The battle system I feel has a lot of potential, but there's not enough variety in the enemy types to really justify it (the only variations are the shields and the throw guys). Plus the enemies are tanky as hell, but that's apparently being fixed next patch.
An Indivisible 2 could be really great if they could iron out the issues. But yeah, you called it when you said even the people who liked it say it's flawed lol.

For those more versed than me on how to add free games or free DLCs to one's account, is there any way I can add this DLC/content to my account?
steamdb.info
The developer of Axiom Verge has released a "Multiverse" edition that includes a number of extras.
For those who already owned the game, like me, most of the content is purchasable separately, but the content above is supposed to be included with purchases of the Making Of videos, but it's not working as it should.
According to the Steam store page of the documentary:
Artbook and Poster PDF Files
If you have purchased this documentary, the associated PDFs can be downloaded from the Software section of your Steam Library. If you have received this documentary as a gift, please click here to add them to your Steam Software Library.
Yet, clicking on that link doesn't add anything to my account. I have nothing on my software section, nor tools.
It starts installing the content, but doesn't add it to my account.
I contacted the developer about this, but since he apparently couldn't care less about looking into this (I guess now that he has Epic's money, past customers don't matter), does anyone know a way to add this content to my account, so I can re-download it (in case of removal)?
thanks

That demo video does look more interesting than the trailer, and now that I know it's mainly 1 dev, yeah that changes things a bit. Expectations adjusted
Does that mean we can pause it at any time, as I've been thinking what fokkusu has, and keep the grandfathered rate when i reactivate it? I might just have sign up and see how big they're going to go the first couple months if that is the case. If pausing drops the grandfathered pricing, im less interested
Yes, they originally stated pausing is fine and keeps you on Classic and then on Twitter replied to state that you can pause as long as you want (just go in each month to manually pause as it'll unpause each month).
Anyone else annoyed with the hello neighbor alphas and betas spamming Steam new releases? >_>
Seems quite desperate and like they'd be better served if they were at least labeled as free DLC for the game(s) they actually want to sell.
Or at least make one of the alpha branches the freebie game then the rest versions as free DLC for that. I dunno. Whatever. This sucks

I will never understand why people have the opinion of ‘Steam sales are boring!’. As if the act of purchasing should amuse them.
It should be an Event! With Fireworks and shit!
They 100% are trying to keep Hello Neighbor relevant by any means. It sucks, yeah, but they probably are trying to build hype for Secret Neighbor Steam launch.Anyone else annoyed with the hello neighbor alphas and betas spamming Steam new releases? >_>

If you're nutso and want to own everything: SCS Software Bundle on Steam
77% off to celebrate the 7th birthday of ETS2. Not bad if you already own a good portion of it.

Steam sales used to have meta games and prizes and giveaways, it's not surprising that people who remember when sales were like that might not see them in the same light now.
edit: Just got an isthereanydeal reminder that grip is historical low on gamersgate ($12..75)... dare I temp so close to the fall/winter sale?
Saw this in the Steam community hub for D2
Shlooters gonna shloot
So still playing ReCore, why are there no 3D metroidvanias? Seriously Metroid Prime was a hit like a decade ago and no one thought to make a "clone"? There are 100s of 2D metroidvanias but not many 3D. Are Dark Souls games considered "metroidvanias"?
Yes they are, although you generally advance with keys and items and shit rather than getting new powers.
Yea I figured. I guess there are a lot of "soulslike" which could be clasified as 3D metroidvanias then. I wish there were more that leaned more on the metroid/castlevania and less on the "souls".
Maybe you'll have fun with Darksiders 3. I liked it a lot. It's not that much of a souls-like as accused, it just a little more deliberate in its combat pacing than the previous games. And it's not nearly as obtuse either, it's pretty straightforward. And you do acquire actual powers throughout the course of the game that then enable access to new areas. Plus the primary weapon is a whip so that's very Castlevania. You don't need to play the other games (but I liked the first one too).

I own all the games and expansions, and I'll gladly drop 6€ or so to complete that bundle, and get the 30 cosmetic DLCs I'm missing, and support the developers.
SCS is one of those teams that supports their games in awesome fashion (the game is now 7 years old, and it keeps growing), with plenty of updates and free content (and naturally, paid expansions), and this is one of those situations where developers don't need to "nickel and dime" me, I will gladly spend money on those cosmetics (which I probably won't use), just to support them.
The first Dark Souls and Sekiro are very metroidvania with their vertical level design. Some areas in Sekiro are off limits until you unlock/discover new abilities.
Remember Epic's fire sale? It was so much fun
I am aware of that. I guess I just find it too strange when people want to make the act of purchasing goods as something fun. I dunno.
Taking a recent example, the race thingy. You either picked Corgi or lose everyday. The Cozy Steam Sale was just clicking on a different part of the screen everyday.
i guess people liked their coal too much.
Yea I have it, it is great. I am just more surprised there are no A-AA-AAA metroid-likes.

yeah, you can say that again ... i have around 180 games installed right now ... all of them are "must play" for me ... and i started playing pretty much all of them ... and then new games kept coming out
i already did own everything
i always buy SCS stuff at release, lolI dont think people are mad because purchasing isnt fun, but the games themselves used to be. And when they came with legitimate prizes, it made sense to focus on them during a sale. Now it's just a time waster to see if I get a coupon or some such.
It was super fun, you never knew which game would increase its price or be removed from the store next!Remember Epic's fire sale? It was so much fun
To those with VR headsets I want to recommend this puzzle game. It's about 1 hour long, but I find it incredible.
I mean that's great, but I promised I wouldn't eat this churro I had on my desk but I don't have a churro anymore on my desk so like we'll see I guessAnd Disco Elysium, because the dev promised that the game would not appear in a Humble Monthly bundle.
I miss you Churro
And i promised myself to have a cosplaygf by the end of the year, take a guess how that one worked out!!
promises are for losers

I would like to say that all the events and giveaways back in "the good old days" are a bit affected by nostalgia goggles.
I've been around steam since 2009-isch and remember the summer giveaways (2011?) and the treasure hunt (same year?) which were new and "special" in the "classic steam years".
The discounts might have gotten "worse" but in the last few years, I would argue that Valve have tried a lot more "special" meta-events.
Clickers, dressing up aliens, collecting stickers, spring-cleaning events (that make you play your games), that summer event when you were part of a colored team (can't remember what that was about) and the big Grand Prix race.
I would like to say that it seems like Valve is always ready to try something new, and pretty much always do "something", yet people long after "the good old days" when there was always an event(?) (there really wasn't, but those that were, were the "first") and complain that the current events are "boring" and "complicated". "Steam never does events anymore..."
People complained a lot about the Grand Prix (and it was hard to understand at the beginning) but Valve did something and adapted the event as the days went by.
As always, Steam and Valve can't win in a lot of people's eyes.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

the only thing i really miss from steam seals are the flash deals
GloSC got update. It's great if you have a lot of games off Steam (like Game Pass) and want to use your non-xinput controller, or just want to have everything on Steam: Alia5/GloSC
The Vigem fix is real big, but the rest here is very nice:
Changes:
The Vigem fix is real big, but the rest here is very nice:
Changes:
- Option to launch via URL (EpicLauncher Shortcuts for example)
- Fix ViGEm installation (use new installer)
- Fixed overlay not focusable when opened
- Allow overlay to be opened with Shift+Tab
- Fixed zip version missing .dll files
- Fixed CLI window stying open if Win32 Program launched
For these upcoming steam sales I would honestly just be ok if Valve did what they did with the Lunar sale again.
5$ off 30$ spent with some light non confusing metagame. That would be good. Just don't make it a grind like with the race shit in the summer sale. Seemed like you had to do and spend too much to get that 5$.
I would also love for Valve to do the GOG thing where you get specific free games depending on how much you spend. I always feel that is best for digital sales or how console physical does B2G1 free. That is also really good and would be great in digital scene too.
I do wonder what desperate thing Sweeney will do with his sale this time. Wouldn't be surprised if its like 20$ off for every game that is at least 30$+ or some ridiculous shit like that. He might as well as do a massive buy back program if it means not paying devs whatever quota that wasn't met by the time exclusive period is over. After all its better to put these games in EGS libraries than give devs a check. Tho I could definitely see devs excluding games again this time heh.

yeah, the flash deals were cool ... i always liked checking the store to see what's currently in the flash deals
In my younger days,
, i would wake up in the wee hours to make sure the 2am flash deals werent ones i wanted to miss. To hell with sleep!
I miss flash sales, 6 hours was a little iffy and I sometimes missed them, but 8 hours was a really good sweet spot because I never slept through a flash sale every morning.
I really didnt understand the complaints about 8 hour flash sales. Like it takes 20 seconds to check the flash sales on your phone. Who doesn't have the Steam app for 2FA anyway?
