The great DLC culling has occurred. My profile game count dropped by 205.

Thank god, it took like 4 years.
 
Holla!

Booster packs: Players who have collected all the trading card drops they can for a game and have used Steam in the last week will randomly receive booster packs. These packs contain three additional cards for the game, and may contain foils.

Booster packs are cool. Watch those prices drop!

Only one Dota 2 booster pack on the market... $150+

Why can't it be me QQ

I don't understand how I have 346 pieces of DLC with only 476 games. I have no memory of buying so much DLC or what games I could have possibly bought all those for.

Edit: where did all these Dungeon Defenders DLC come from...

Did you buy it in a Humble Bundle? Those came with all the DLC.

Why will you pay more than 2 dollars for a booster? in the end there are more probabilities to get 3 commons than 1 foil

Oh well, gambling problems I guess

Its gotta be messed up.

I very rarely purchase DLC and my count is showing 81.

wait, do you just randomly get a booster when Steam is open or if you're running that game that you used up the card drops for?
 
I was reading one of the posts about booster packs and at that very moment a trine 2 booster pack popped up in my inventory!

Opening. . . . . No foil :( The animation is cute though.

Edit: I wasn't even in a game.

Damn, new badge shot me up a few levels. Also, the 2k+ badge, taken from a friend's profile:

Just got a Booster Pack for Triple Town while Idleing Super Meat Boy. whoa.

Steam should actually give XP for finishing games, not buying them IMO.

It would be impossible, how do you judge a game as finished?

Through achievements?

Most games don't even have achievements and they can be exploited.

Through time played?

People will just idle like they do now with cards.

The D&D demo is out and may be the shortest one I've ever played. The port is good enough, so I'll pick it up during the first sale.
 
Couldn't even avoid Tomb Raider's system locking crash by limiting my playtime, frequently saving and exiting to desktop. I'm just going to uninstall the game for now.

It looks like it's a memory leak, the crash isn't specifically triggered by an NIS, it just always seemed to hit when I reached one. It just seems dependent on time, roughly 40 minutes. Maybe if I had more RAM it would delay the crash.

Either way, shit port.

They could move for a standardized trigger, kinda like for achievements once the game is beaten. But then there's the question of how do you handle games that can't be "beaten".

Booster packs + people's idiocy is already ruining prices. "Hm, the cheapest right now is 1,79€, let's try 0,80. Oh, someone undercut me, 0,75!"
