The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

[Modron]

The Steam shop is such unusable garbage. WHY DOES IT SHOW ME GAMES AND DLC I ALREADY HAVE?!

Try refreshing, the store page has a tendency to not be logged in when you've been inactive for several hours. Plus on rare occasions parts of the community/network/login are down.

People still use front page of Steam, or frontpage of anything?

The token for the webpage itself expires relatively fast, which makes you need to login again. It's actually good that it does this, though. If you use the client you don't have to login every time.

I have Steam open up on my library page. But yeah, I like seeing what is coming out, what is selling well (at a glance), and upcoming games.

How about showing you games you dont have and absolutely dont want to?

Dunno, I get a bit antsy when I see that a game has about $100 in DLC when it's all on sale.

I suggest you add some CREAM.

There is a demo. I dunno how old the demo build is - there are people on youtube playing it over 3 years ago - but I just played 1hr of it just now and it is good. Trad. resident evil gameplay but instead of zombies it's WWI trench warfare. You play as a Frenchman, which greatly adds to the horror element for me personally.

There are some interesting mechanics, including you w/ NPCs versus a trench invasion but otherwise just a solid game really. The level design is pretty good, maybe a bit better than Signalis but slightly below RE1. Art direction is a very slight weak point but of course who knows how reflective the demo is of what state it's in now.

The safe room music is on point as well.

I wishlisted, which apparently is important for indies to get their stuff sold.

Wouldn't surprise me. There's no offline mode. Also noticed you need a MyNacon account, too.

Many thanks, this is a fucking boss link for My Current Life Stage. I had to quit my big moolah finance job few weeks ago [*] and have been in a state of mild economisation + extra free time for a few weeks. Been playing demos of weirdo shit for about a month and starting to prefer it to playing real games. A demo never outstays it's welcome.

[*] My personal moolah is still big, it was the job that got small
