Anyone know why I get the Security window loop on Idlemaster? It is asking to open steam-idle.exe but even clicking ok a dozen times doesn't do anything.
It worked for 3 games, where I had to click ok after every new game but now it is stuck in a loop.

Valve saw 200K people idling a game for cards and decided enough was enough?

RIP Fish



Unfortunately, 3.0 is missing some of the later content and none of the games have multiplayer, but I found them to be very fun games nonetheless.


3.0 is such a guilty pleasure of mine. Luckily I have that content on PS4 and all the actual figures. I also downloaded all the awesome community built stuff locally before they shut down the servers on console.

My favorite moments were being Darth Vader and putting him on the magic tea ride. It's a small world eerily playing in the background while you hear Vader breathing and he looks ridiculous on the ride.

I also as Darth Vader walked up to a NPC kid on a swing. The kid slowly stopped swinging , hopped off and walked away lol.

I've been playing the Long Dark the last few days. I just wanted something that was season appropriate and it's a great game that I wanted to get back to get back to regardless.

They released their latest update last night and it's a huge one. I guess they hired a few animator specialists and equipment when Capcom Vancouver laid off their employees. They then redid their story mode with new facial and movement animations. Also added some new items and functionality to the game that filtered down to the survival mode, which I'm playing currently.

Here's the trailer for the story mode, looks excellent.

How different is this from Kona, aside from not looking like it's the 60s/70s

OK WTF is up with the camera in Darksiders Warmastered? O_o
I can only rotate the right stick slowly for proper rotation, but the moment I apply more force the dang thing zips like a formula 1 car.

Yeah it's mad, have to adjust in the steam controller configuration options for the game as the in-game sensitivity options do zilch.

Also, if the dive button stops working hold a/x and turn the camera down.

been playing "Ultimate General Civil War" for a few days.

CYYzP5YPWGGD6CJNTEaNsL.jpg


especially the dynamic Map is cool. In one Scenario, I had:
- a battle on a map in the left flank
- a battle on a different map with my main forces
- after those battles concluded, both maps got integrated into the main map and my two forces now stood at their position from the initial mission briefing. My main force was still in battle against a sizable enemy, but my left flank had won the battle and could relief my main force and drive into the flank of the enemy.
- after holding out for some time, the map got bigger AGAIN and I had to retreat to a fortified position where the biggest battle took place.
- Ihad to use some units to harass the enemy so that my main Force could retreat orderly to the fortifications.
- but I couldn't really sacrifice those harassing forces, because all Units and their strength are real units that will get transferred over into the next scenario in the campaign.

Talos Principle is the midweek (85% off). Talos VR is also 85% off (half of what it was in the Black Friday sale). I'm tempted even though I beat it the regular version.

Question, if I buy a phsyical game(RE2) from let's say Hungary and activate the game on Steam in Grece will that work without any problems?
Pretty sure it should. Cdkeys buys boxed and while they're locked to EU they work in any country European country.(except if germany has their weird censoring in the game then it doesn't work there)

JaseC probably knows better

German censorship is like german amateur porn, it's a bother, we are ashamed of it and no one gets why it's even a thing.

Yeah, no region locks between EU countries. If key activates in any EU country, it will activate in all EU countries. (well Germany may be exempt due to their laws).

EDIT: meant to post this in the builder thread, but I guess it's relevant so I'll leave it!

First day of deliveries down. 1-2 days left to wait. Excitement reaching critical.

Notes on Best Developer category:
"Best Developer" proved to be a highly-contested category with a lot of close calls among the top nominees. As a result, we expanded the set of nominees to 10. In addition, we've excluded ourselves from this category. We appreciate the love you've shown us, but we want to honor the other awesome developers on Steam, so we have excluded Valve from the final tally.

The list is crazy

Labour of Love

No mans sky? HAHAHAAHAHAHAH

Best Developer

Rockstar

Bethesda

2 developers that actively hate PC gaming, and Rockstar doesn't even bother to announce a PC version of RDR 2 and Bethesda who is actively smothering PC gaming with their godawful launcher. Will Epic be on the list next year?
