Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Steam Curator Update - Coming This Fall

For the past few months we've been busy working on significant improvements and additions to the Steam Curator system. There's still some work to be done before we can roll these out, but we wanted to share a bit about why we see Steam Curators as a crucial component to exploring Steam, and what changes we're making.

And my favorite bit

I hope modbot can find us in gaming. Loot Rascals is a lot of fun, I recommend checking it out if you grab it or picked up the most recently Humble.

Looks like Modbot might be getting a little too generous with the timed giveaways. We are looking into the issue so hang tight. Non-timed giveaways seem to be working normally.

EDIT: it looks like Nabs did a 15 minute lightning raffle but Modbot created a longer timer. Again we ask for patience as these issues are resolved.

EDIT EDIT: It should be resolved now sorry for the trouble.

By the way, i got another random comment under one of my screenshots from chinese guy with only PUBG on account. He was probably trying to get steam community badge, so sooner or later that chinese PUBG crowd would be assimilated and they'll start buying other games too. Or not, i'm not an expert in asian culture

If someone wanted to hit me with a SteamGAF discord link, I'd appreciate it.

Night in the Woods is a spooky $16.66 right now and I recommend it whole-heartedly.

So, how is current sale? It was underwhelming so far for me, bought only 5 games and discounts are mostly really bad. Hoping that steam autumn or at least winter sale will be better than this.

We'll, no good sales for me. I'll wait December sales, honestly.

I was hoping for a Trails 3 discount but nothing.

I was personally hoping that the two latest Walking Dead games would hit -75% (Michonne has hit that spot in the past) or that the Walking Dead bundle would be a "complete the bundle" type of thing instead of being gift-only.

I think it's pretty telling that the top games on sale are GTA V, The Witcher (I guess this is "Halloween-y"), ARK, and Planet Coaster.

The autumn and winter sale will be a lot better in terms of breadth, but I wouldn't expect any better discounts on the games that are already on sale.

I believe The Room and The Room Two were very praised among gafs. Well both reached a new lowest ever discount


Click to expand...

Oh man, thanks for the heads up. I'll give The Room 2 a shot for $0.49. I liked the first one alright but not enough to finish it - I hear the second one is "more of the same" but a lot better presentation.

Cheers.

I did a fresh install of windows on a new SSD and now I have added the old steamlibrary folder in the download settings.

How do I get Steam to recognize the installed games from the other hard drive?

Restart Steam and it should pick up on the added manifest files.

Steam Controller bugged out while playing thw Witcher 3. Starting the game the steam overlay is the desktop overlay and not sure why. They Steam Controller config I had is still working in game though, just no big picture overlay when i press the centre button.

Thought it was Shadowplay uninstalled all Geforce Experience played around with admin rights on steam and Witcher 3. Tried another game and fuck it works fine so it’s Witcher thats screwing me up.

I’m pretty far in so I think I’ll just continue. I’ve got internet enough for small things but redownload games is a big no.

Still love the damn controller though. Been playing Witcher 3/Neverwinter Nights 2 and Pillars of Eternity on it. Easy as pie...when it works...
