    So, @akajaybay‌ decided that I haven't had enough terror in my life lately and dropped a copy of Outlast on me. He says I need a camera, and I'll just be doing a little investigative journalism. What's the worst that could happen?

    Thanks akajaybay!

    Just opened Steam to find that over half of my library was suddenly missing, including stuff that was already installed. Obviously a glitch (restarting the client fixed it), but made my heart skip a beat all the same.

    My precious games :'(

    And Cave Story+ went to @Jazz‌ I think based on the email.

    Your codes are all in your inboxes, enjoy!

    YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!

    What makes me thrilled? Crayon Physics works with my Wacom tablet. :smiley:

    Thanks for the giveaways!

    I finally killed the Eater of Worlds in Terraria. Three times in a row. Without losing more than 50 health each time.

    My gear might be better than I thought it was . . .

    So last night I made Dark Souls 2 my punching bag. I didn't die once. I helped some random peoples kill a boss a few times. I solo'd the Pursuer and made him my bitch - killed him in less than 15 seconds (yay ballista). Proceeded to the next area and cleared out a great deal of it with no deaths. I usually die a lot, but last night, I was ON.

    Tonight... first thing I do 3 minutes after loading the game is roll right off a ledge and die.

    Save, exit, play something else. ;)

    When retaliatory strikes are involved, "mutual classturbation" seems appropriate.

    Or, "Mutually Assured Giftstruction"?

    Edit: not sure if I could make that . . . visually appropriate for the forum, Dirk. ;)

    That doesn't mean it didn't made the list, though. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

    Anyway, been away. no time to read. Calc II is hard, programming is easy, but takes lots of time to write code. Work is trying to work me to much even though I told them I'm going to school now. And gaming, been in D3, my steam is ashamed of me. Anyway, just peaked in and saw this. Had to answer.

    My sister in law is Indian and has inspired great disdain in my heart concerning the lack of video games accurately using Indian culture. The Bollywood dance sims barely scratch the surface, out of hundred of years, cultures, empires, Civilization is the only one to due them justice? Come on! Humorous as Nuclear Power Ghandi is, I can't help but look at this picture and ask why I don't have chakra throwing, dual wielding swordsmen in Mount and Blade? They're holding extra ammo on their hats, THEIR HATS!

    May I suggest Crusader Kings II, whose latest expansion pack, Rajas of India, has just added... well, you can probably guess.

    Thanks to @bloodatonement‌ for cheering me up, and code dropped NBA 2k14 on me! Thank you so much!

    Post some feedback when you get the chance. I didn't even know that there were NBA games on steam. It prompted me to give a quick look for other major sport PC games like NHL or MLB. Sadly it looks like they don't really releases sports games on PC anymore. Which is a real shame. So if NBA 2k14 is any good I might pick it up.

    I was lamenting this same thing recently. 2K was the one releasing PC sports titles and they recently chose not to renew their MLB license to make MLB 2K. This also meant having those old games taken off Steam. Probably would have picked up MLB 2K12 had I known.

    I know that it tells you when you go to create one how many you can make at a time based on your feedback, but I'm not sure of a way to find out outside of starting to make a giveaway.

    There's a warning at the top of the page when you are trying to create a new giveaway. http://www.steamgifts.com/create
    Based on your current feedback score, you're able to create up to 17 additional gifts.

    Cook Serve Delicious tries to accurately simulate meal rushes throughout the day. That's pretty close to a Ham and Egg sim.

    edit: Srsly, CSD gave me flashbacks to when I worked in a restaurant. Clean the toilet. Make the food. Toss the garbage. AND THEN PEOPLE STARTED ROBBING THE STORE. That's an actual game mechanic. You have to give a witness statement while you are serving food to get a composite sketch of the guy.

    The top-down shooter Crimsonland is getting a remake and coming to Steam & PS4, target date this summer.

    http://www.crimsonland.com/

    Apparently it was greenlit a while ago, but now there's a trailer and stuff. It looks like the gameplay from the original with more shiny, honestly, but yay Steam. Plus I'm pretty sure that's a DOOM reference on their webpage.
