Steam
 
Anyone here use Steam?
Anyone interested in making a Menewsha Steam group?

Please discuss Steam and their cheap-o games, assuming there is anything left to be discussed.

Greed 01-29-2013 04:08 AM

Steam is ah-mazing!

Seriously deep discussion here. ;3

TCHHH WELL. I LIKE TO SAVE MONEY.

I finally got my copy of Sleeping Dogs working on Steam. Hehe. <3

I hate Steam. I have over 100 games just sitting there, waiting to be played, because they keep going on sale and I keep buying them and there is no way I can finish all of these games in one life time but then I keep buying more and it's a horrible addiction.

Anyway. As long as it's not sending me notifications every five minutes like this one group I joined, I'd join.

Greed 01-29-2013 08:52 AM

How'd you get it working?

Hi Doc *waves* glad to see you joining in more conversationals!

Oh god that sounds like an endless cycle. I hear you. It's the reason why I stopped putting money onto Steam. I kept buying keys to unbox all my crates on TF2. Then I'd see sales, and i'll be like *drool 1000000 indie games* and buy them. Now, because there's no money on my account, I have to actually find my card, load my account and then buy the game. It gives me more thinking time - DO I REALLY NEED ANOTHER GAME??

@ Greed: I checked on the forums and someone posted about how the latest AMD drivers finally did full support for the game, so I installed it. It was originally really incompatible with a lot of systems.. the Steam forums had lots of threads with people who couldn't get past the first loading screen. [gonk] I love steam for another reason.. reading the forums makes me lol.

It can be a love hate relationship with steam. On one hand I like to support developers and buy games when they are released.. but I find myself actually anticipating a steam sale for certain games. It's a better alternative than pirating, so that's good. [lol]

ugh sometimes I feel the urge to buy something I already own for XBOX. [gonk]

Greed 01-29-2013 09:23 AM

Oh wow. CONGRATS :D Haha.

Yeh, games are the one thing I don't pirate. ;p

Thank god I don't have an xbox. That'd make things so much harder. ;C

Did you see how THQ died?? I was SO surprised!

Risque 01-29-2013 10:18 AM

Yeah.. sometimes it's a pain to decide what system I buy games for.. but I lean towards PC cause it's almost always cheaper, with steam sales and whatnot.
We also have the luxury of modding games which they can't really do on consoles. [mrgreen]

Yeah.. it's kinda sad how they went bankrupt like that. Did you pick up a THQ bundle? o:

Greed 01-30-2013 11:07 PM

Truedat. I can't get into xbox gaming, learning how to use the controller is like... A very steep learning curve. :L

Nope. :O

Risque 01-31-2013 03:41 AM

How anyone managed to play a FPS with a controller is completely beyond me. D:

Elluh 01-31-2013 06:55 AM

[ninja] Abnormally long index fingers. ^

I've recently started using Steam, I mostly download the free games cause I'm cheap. :3 ..and because I lack a debit card at the moment. [lol]

Greed 01-31-2013 01:27 PM

Haha. I only just got a debit card but before then our uni card had a visa option for some reason... Soooo....

Risque 01-31-2013 09:36 PM

For free games I like to use gog.com
so much good old stuff. *_*

I went from using debit to credit exclusively.. I get a whopping 1% cash back. OOOOH~!!~ [sarcasm]

EDIT: WE SHOULD MAKE A MENEWSHA STEAM GROUPPPP

Greed 02-01-2013 03:41 AM

Hahahaha.

I use a debit right now, because the bank gives me a free account with unlimited transfers etc. :3 YAY.

WE SHOULD. **wonders how many Meneladiesandgents use Steam**

P.s. this is my most amazing 1000th post. [XD] Finally!

Arkkath 02-01-2013 06:11 AM

Steam is pretty sweet.
During the last Steam sale I picked up Fallout New Vegas because I never got around to playing it when it first came out.
I also play a lot of Dota 2.

Risque 02-01-2013 08:05 AM

Aww, lucky butt with your free account.. the days of free accounts are close to over for us here in the States. Damn banks. D:<

Yay, grats Greed. :D

@ Arkkath: Oooh, I bought New Vegas as well, haven't played it yet but I am excited to. I think I might play 1 and 2 before starting on NV or 3..

Older games on Steam is awesome [cool]

Arkkath 02-01-2013 07:02 PM

I never played Fallout 1 or 2, but I absolutely loved 3. It's definitely one of my most favourite games.

Risque 02-02-2013 04:40 AM

I got 1, 2 and Tactics during a steam sale.. you gotta pick em up when they are on sale. [mrgreen] It's too good a deal to pass up.

Sleepy Anarchy 02-02-2013 02:50 PM

Oh Steam, the best thing to happen to gaming, the worst thing to happen to my wallet.

Risque 02-03-2013 08:27 PM

^ Agreed. :D

Admonish Misconstruction 02-04-2013 11:14 PM

Steam's a sneaky one, always comes with those Winter and Summer sales and then BAM. My wallet's gone.

So sneaky.

Risque 02-05-2013 08:04 PM

Oh, don't forget those daily deals. I just bought Rayman Origins. [love] Really excited to try that one out. Would have bought the Witcher but those are already on the boyfriend's computer. <_< Well.. maybe I could buy it again. [gonk] Wtf is wrong with me~

Oh, anyone looking to trade their copy of Left 4 Dead 2 for my Portal 2?

that post needs semi-colons, but whatever.

Aoi Kazuya 02-06-2013 08:33 PM

ooooh, a menewsha steam group sounds nice~ I need to start playing with other people I think, haha, beyond my normal group.

I can't actually complain about my wallet with you guys...i've only bought two steam indie games, one humble bundle, and the DLC for the mechromancer in Borderlands 2. I was gifted everything else [sweat]

oh, but if anybody wants Dota 2, like honestly I will give you an invite. I've lost track of how many posts I've made on my personal facebook about giving away keys/invites, haha [sweat]

The Wandering Poet 02-07-2013 07:46 AM

All my steam games my brother bought me [ninja]

Risque 02-07-2013 08:46 AM

Haha, everyone should feel free to use this as a thread to give away all those copies of DOTA 2. [yes]
