You missed the massive leveling rush a few sales ago. for a minimal points investment you could gain l hundreds of levels. They put a cap on the number of levels you could gain but I still gained like 30 levels. Every 20 levels gives you a bonus to your chance of getting a booster pack drop.

Used to be when you crafted badges, you had a chance at getting random steam coupons (some games had up to 90% coupons drop). Doesn't look like they really do that anymore though

Same. A nicer profile is semi-enticing, but not that much.

You get sale cards during the sale and ~2 weeks before it starts but other than that you get coupons which are usually for shit games you'll never play.

Lol that's ridiculous

I guess it's already been patched though, shortly after the release time of the video if some of the comments are to be believed
i'm not one to dress up my steam profile so it's pretty useless to me.

@Mark_DeRosa Dunno if you'll bother checking in again now, and I can't PM you, but if you do see this I've sent you a friend request on Steam (Empty Skies is my username on there).

Edit: the fact you can't be @'d atm means you probably won't :(

It varies from game to game. The publishers set the regional prices and if the price difference is more than 10% it doesn't let you gift.

So I've sent two gifts and now Steam's locked me out of gifting anymore? Exact wording: It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours. Please wait a while before trying again.

I kinda understand why (CC fraud) but still... >:( Anyone know how long I have to wait before I can gift again?

Edit: Also 2 gifts (less than 10 total) is a ridiculously low limit before putting a block on >:(

You could check other sites (such as gog) and buy them keys for the games, assuming they are available on those sites.

Have been trying that, but can't find them on other sites - or if I can they're full price and I can't afford them :(

Cheers for the advice though.

I swear Steam actively makes it difficult to spend your money on their site! So many problems I've had today :( I'm sooooo glad I choose the login name I did for Steam (hint - it's not particularly complimentary of Steam!)

Only other thing would be to just gift them steam cash then as far as I can think of.

Atm Steam's blocked all gifts from my account. If I was on social media, Valve would be inundated with abusive messages from me right now!

Yeah, but gamefaqs now won't let me PM as I swore in my last one and it froze! The send button is now permentantly greyed out for me! XD I hate modern technology!

@Alakazamtrainer check your Steam - you were one of the lucky few that Steam would allow me to gift!

I've never had so much hassle with a company since AOL refused to cancel my free internet trial back in ~'96! Steam just doesn't seem to want my money :|

EDIT: If I'm still around (and have money!) when/if this is done again, I might just transfer money to people instead of gifting them! Will save me so much stress! XD

For me it was Ori and the Will of the Wisps. I loved the first game, had pretty high expectations going into the sequel, but it blew me the hell away all the same. I'm so glad I got to experience this game. And it reminds me again of how awesome itrumpmypillow8 is for all he's done and his Ori 2 giveaway!

Also I started dabbling around in Kenshi, though I stopped last night to read a couple of newbie guides lol. Story of Seasons is out in a few days on Switch and then later Tsushima and I'm so antsy for 'em. An open game like this seems like a really good order for the time being

I mentioned it earlier, but definitely Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Was an awesome experience that somehow managed to surpass the previous game. I'm so glad I went into it as blind as I did (wasn't even aware of the changes made to the gameplay)

Previously to itrumpmypillow's generous gift, it was Supraland though - Amazing 3d metroidvania. The story is pretty bland (and really non-existent for the most part), but the gameplay and puzzles far more than make up for it. Despite appearances, it's actually fairly long too - put 25+ hours into it.

Haven't played X-com 2 yet, but I feel like Dishonored 2 is still your best bet (was my favorite game last year)

It's what I feel like every stealth game should strive to achieve. Even ignoring the story, which was really well done, there are multiple different paths to your goals, multiple different methods to achieve said goals, and extremely fun abilities to do so with (with many optional upgrades available to each).

It's definitely worth your time if you choose to try it out. The screenshots on the store page do not do it justice at all.

My suggestion, if you are at all on the fence about it, is to try the demo. It is surprisingly long and the save does carry over into the main game if you do decide to grab it.
