Yes, they have been adding small bits here and there since the Pathfinder update and there is going to be at least one more major Foundation series update.
Does that mean they could technically "ruin" a legit copy?

But they already update Rust every thursday

Doesn't the game have infinite amount of content already?

Infinte yes. Infinite that is worthwhile? nah.
As far as unofficial mods like these are considered, yes. (If they maintain SteamID based bans)
Crossed the 15 hour mark with Trails in the Sky: FC over the weekend and I absolutely love it.
And I'm not even a JRPG guy!
In an ironic twist of fate it was exactly the 15 hour mark when I dropped Witcher 3 out of sheer boredom a month or so back.
And I totally am a WRPG guy!

I read a lot that spec ops is mechanically mediocre (or that the gameplay is subpar) but I disagree, I think it's very competent gameplay wise. Why do you think is mediocre in these aspects? Which 3rd person shooters do you think are better mechanically besides Vanquish and Gears of War? (I haven't played binary domain yet).

The first part of a three part series of blog posts on what Valve is doing on the Steam store, and why has been posted. This one explains why curation is never coming back, and reveals that a "here's why we're recommending this game to you" feature will go live later today. Next blog post will be about how people are abusing Steam features and how Valve will stop them, and the third will be the big Steam Direct reveal.
Definitely thread worthy on gaming side, for people who haven't suffered Mod Wrath.

It has already been implemented.
I have to say it's a welcome change and pretty informative overall.
Looks like it's live.

Yeah I thought I had been seeing it for a while now. Maybe it was a limited rollout or something?

Got an email today from Keymailer, asking me for keys for Super Army 3 already. lol
Obviously, my first thought is "YEAH NO", but reddit and a few other forums seem to think they are legit. Keymailer says they get shit to streamers.
Gonna pass on this one until I get more info.

Adventure Time: Finn and Jake Investigations is on sale 70% off during the weekly:
Past Adventure Time games have been pulled from sale, and this is the steepest discount the game has ever gotten.
dixit Stump.
So how do I get free refunds every week?
Edit: Ah, I missed the bold highlight referring to recommendations. Meh.
Looks like it broke already, I'm getting only white pages for store pages.

Okay, this new feature is pretty awesome:
First one is I am Setsuna (wasn't in my queue), second one Pillars of Eternity (is in my queue).
Very informative.
Where did you get this?
Edit: Ah, on each store page indeed! It does not have anything to say about Adventure Time.

How do you even recommend games? By reviewing?
Looks like it.
Also looks like I need to whip up some more recommendations for my favorite games

As I understand it, Keymailer is a side company of the Yogscast. Certainly, it's a name I have heard of for key distribution. That said, I would definitely not trust any cold emailers.

I played Spec Ops five years ago so I can't remember any specific examples to explain my feelings towards the game. All I remember is that when I finished the game I thought it was below average, not much fun to play (by design, apparently) and that the story was quite predictable (because Heart of Darkness, obviously). I didn't outright hate the game or anything, just thought it wasn't very good. I did like the desert setting for the game though, as that's a fairly unique thing it had going for it.
I'm not singling out this game either. I played Homefront around the same time and I really disliked that game but I couldn't tell you a single specific reason for that all these years later. I played Binary Domain and I loved that game but again, aside from a couple of memorable characters, I wouldn't be able to tell you why I liked it so much. Maybe my memory is just rubbish.

Looking at the Steam recommendations, it looks like all those idled games are going haunt me forever with what Steam ends up recommending based on other games I've 'played'
New changes sound neat, don't see anything negative coming out of it, so i'm all for a bit more transparency
The user reviews and it being on your wishlsit is extremely redundant information tho
They're to the right from the purhcase buttons

Oui jshackles, unfortunately this update makes Steam Browser not load game pages at all if Enhanced Steam is turned on. I wish you luck with what I imagine is a tough fixing process.
Everything works fine for me with enhanced steam.
Maybe it's a browser thing or related to a specific option?

It might be, I saw some other people on the post mentioning Game Store pages wouldn't load but a white screen for them, I was having the same issue but disabling Enhanced Steam made it work again for me.
My discovery queue still is as irrelevant as ever, of first 10 suggested games I'm not interested even in one, and why they are there hardly makes any sense, same as before.

Nothing yet, the update is being released in three stages. This doesn't effect Steam's main pages, but the individual game store pages.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I'm not able to duplicate this issue, are you on Chrome or Firefox? Also is it a specific game that has issues, or is it all of them?

Chrome, and it's every Game Store Page as far as I could tell, every other page worked fine but store pages. I saw no one here seemed to be having issue, but some on Steam's page were mentioning the same issue I was having, the store pages were working fine in the Steam client, so I turned off Enhanced Steam and it did work.
NOTABLY, turning it back on did fix whatever issue I was having but I was 100% not working for a couple hours since the update hit until I turned it off.

I played more Expeditions: Viking (this time with the latest patch, 1.0.2) and it seems to have smoothed out my issues. The loading time on Ribe, the first big town in the game, went from 5 minutes to 2-ish, which is terrible but omg I love that it's playable again.
I wish more games had persistent injuries and camping and stuff. Also XP for quest completion, not kills. It adds a lot of tension to battles, plus makes jumping into them much more tactical.

I got the exact same recommendation for the same reason, lol.
It's probably a comparison of tags that decides it. Strategy is the big one. It's how you get a lot of weird recommendations, particularly for more niche/obscure genres. There's no granularity, so "strategy" is RTS, MOBA, 4X, and anything inbetween.

I would say that if you liked Worms and Bridge Constructor, you'd love Forts.
Damn, then how is Steam ever getting fixed?! Time to switch to Origin I guess.
