Does anybody else use the wireless Modmic?
I'm confused, because every time I turn my computer off at night and turn it back on the next day, I have to re-sync the mic in order to get it to work. I think it doesn't actually need to be re-synced, but I can't figure out how to turn it on otherwise. There's literally one button, and if I press it when it's off, it doesn't do anything, but if I hold it for any amount of time, it enters the syncing mode.
Edit: Okay, holding the button down for 2 seconds turns it off. Pressing it again turns it on. So it really does just need to be synced up every time I restart my computer. That sucks.

I still need to give Below another go one of these days. Rebought on steam a year or two back and got annoyed how fucked the black levels were in a game all about darkness and quit again
Can confirmed, my so got addicted playing this for more than a month on apple arcade (when I tried the demo on steam, gotta admit the touch screen style on ipad are more intuitive and easier than mouse/gamepad for this game)
They need to make a Match 3 RPG but in between match three battles it's a grand strategy game I just had that thought, finally combine puzzle quest with the original warlords games. Man Puzzle Quest 3 was bad
Had to refund Ass Creed Unity just before time was up...I love the setting, but...did y'all really not feel how bad the movement and controls are in this game? The parkour and combat prioritizing animation over inputs makes playing it feel like trudging through molasses. It feels like Red Dead Redemption 2, but in this case it's worse since this game revolves around movement. What a shame. If this were as snappy as the old games it probably would've ended up being my #1.
They are going through something I think. It just took me a while to request a refund because none of the buttons showed up for several minutes even after refreshing/they told me the game I was refunding wasn't in my library.
its tuesday and Steam always has maintenance around this time lol
I've never noticed haha. Thanks for the info
Never noticed, usually don't use it around this time.
Probably why they picked this time. I was only reminded of this because I was hyped to play games on my Steam Deck only to be swatted down by reality.
Thanks grabbed it, I played a bit of the game on switch and it is very addictive.
Everyone that enjoys match 3 games, capy games shouldt try it! No to mention it should be perfect on the deck.
Automatic detection of a billion different controllers is nice, but I'm still not a fan of Steam Input. All I want to do is map the esc key to select+start press and it's such a convoluted setup that I would much rather continue using DS4Windows.
Alternatively, Duckstation and PPSSPP not allowing for simple multi-button hotkeys is also annoying. I don't want to have touch the keyboard if I'm not playing a game with the keyboard dammit!

In the past, A few days before the sale begins you can get mystery cards for crafting badges. Then when the sale goes live the cards (and mystery event badge) change from mystery cards to the named cards fitting the theme of the sale. I'm guessing they are doing something similar. But maybe they could have something new planned.
Edit: On one occasion, about a decade ago, the Steam community was divided into teams and the team that crafted the most badges for the day won mystery items (discount coupons or games from wish list, I can't remember). It's possible that crafting badges during the sale might have new ramifications.

Since I'm new to PC gaming, I have to choose between 2 laptops. And since I live in the Middle East the prices might look high to some of you but this is the case here. Which one is better for me when taking into consideration price to performance and specs ratio:
Lenovo Legion 5:
I7-10750h
Rtx 2060
16 gb ram
256 gb ssd
1000 gb hdd
$1200
Or
Lenovo ideapad gaming 3:
I5-11300h
Rtx 3050 ti
16 gb ram
512 gb ssd
$945

Godawful.. God of War on the other hand... definitely give that a shot with kb+m.
This is me once again bemoaning Steam input and the apparent inability of me to set up multi-button hotkeys instead of straight remaps, and Duckstation for not being able to do the same, forcing me to use L3 or R3 instead of being have to hit select+start to do stuff.
DLSS and FSR will end up helping you boost the longevity either way though.
The first is more powerful but the latter will continue to get driver support since it's newer.

So if you were in my place which one you would have picked?
I wonder how the people in charge of this service even find some of the shovelware garbage they toss onto Prime gaming.
I mean, I consider myself pretty informed even about bad PC games, but some of these games are just so head scratchingly bad to the point where I wonder how they even got made in the first place and if they actually sold any copies before Amazon came along and paid them to put them on Prime.
I have had € 20 in my steam wallet for half a year now. The primary reason that I don't spend it is that even during sales, 95% of the time buying the steam key elsewhere is a lot cheaper. Hoping to pick something up during the sale though.

Steam input has let me play games like Stalker and KOTOR 2 with a controller on a tv so I love it. For any big game someone always a has a config. Over time I've learned how to tweak them or even make my own.
Same. I will have something in my wish list, then it goes on sale elsewhere or in a humble bundle at significantly cheaper than steam.
Oh, same for me! I played some games, where you'd aim with the mouse, but do everything else with WASD, and I just can't. It is even worse, that the mouse also defines in which direction the character is looking, and I often ended up walking backwards, because of this, what is slower - it was all a whole mess to me. 😞
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands on Steam
Embark on an epic adventure full of whimsy, wonder, and high-powered weaponry! Roll your own multiclass hero then shoot, loot, slash, and cast on a quest to stop the Dragon Lord.
For those that were waiting for it to come to Steam. Arrives 6/23 with a discounted price.
I gave it a shot and you're right, doing that is pretty damn convoluted. I couldn't get it to work without setting off the normal bindings for start/select. I reckon it would be better to set Esc to either long press or double press of either button instead. Or just keep using DS4Windows since you're used to it.
Chivalry guys have had their twitter hacked. Looks like an absolute asshole's in control so avoid it for now.
You can bind Esc to a chord combination, if that's an option.

Steam Summer Sale starts tomorrow so most of the store will be discounted. Wait for that before spending the card/looking at potential games.
Deathsmiles I+II just dropped. Why are all these games I want coming out right before the Summer Sale?! 😭
