I recommend everyone enter for Banner Saga. And not just because I want alien. Banner Saga is still one of my top contenders for GOTY.

I still need to finish that game but I heard quite a few different opinions on it. Some people loved it and others had some gripes against it. I think it might have been about the choices in the game.

Soo... in a giveaway like that (very kind of you Shadownet btw!) when it says free for all and all that, is it still a common courtesy to only enter for one key per game you'd like? Or is it just spam all the codes and hope for the best (and that you do not win multiples)?
"Free For All" meaning you can enter for as many games as you like. (though you have to send a PM to Modbot per game you enter. So technically you're allowed to enter for all 19 copies. But you will only win one. (If you win at all). Of course the unspoken rule is that don't enter for games you have no interest in playing.

thats a lot of AMD codes, damn
The thing I had to do for DocSeuss to obtain those AMD codes.... *shudders*

Yup. My sylvari thief specifically. :) GW2 is the ultimate backlog nemesis tho, I really should stop playing it or stop buying Steam games. But I can't stop any of that, I'm doomed :D

So I bought Dreamfall Chapters, it's coming out in a week. Do I need to play The Longest Journey and Dreamfall: The Longest Journey to understand what's going on?

Ahhh I thought it look familiar. I used to play a bit of Guild Wars 2 before I had an intervention lol. It's a great MMO though, just a bit too overwhelming for newcomers. I remember I was so baffled as to why the game has like 15 different in-game currencies lol.

But now I'm stuck on Counter Strike Global Offensive, I can't stop playing it.

yes you do considering the way Dreamfall ended. It's like watching Matrix Revolutions without seeing the other 2 films.

I have a Wii U but won't be getting Bayonetta 2 so does that make me at least a casual PC gamer? Half-credit? :p

After playing Insurgency again tonight, I wish that game did a lot better since it's a perfect mix and has some of the toughest coop terrorist hunt missions I've ever played. It'd be nice to see what they could do with a more modern engine.

Strange.
It's very strange to be a new face. I've been lurking the Steam threads for years. To be able to write in them is... odd.

So I bought Dreamfall Chapters, it's coming out in a week.
What? A week? Already? Noooes, I have no time! I keep forgetting all these release dates...

Yeah, they actually made some controversial changes recently to make it less overwhelming for new players. I liked the changes but people went crazy about it :p

that most already have
that doesn't count as a win.

The shortcut is supposed to lead to the original location. Steam Mover uses symbolic links, which basically means that Steam looks to the same directory it always has but is unknowingly rerouted to the new location. You can test this for yourself: create a shortcut and run it.

Hmm so the files are moved then? I can see that my laptop HDD free space has increased, but everytime I open the shortcut, the path reads as if it is in the same drive, but in truth, it is in my external harddisk? Is this some kind of 'ghost data' for lack of a better term?

Well, what do you think? :D
If you have not enought time, play Dreamfall first, since the main characters should be the same, and...THAT ending.
But Longest Journey is simply amazing, one of the best point and click at all, you NEED to play this one too, soon or later.

Well look like I'll need to track down the other two games before I play Dreamfall Chapters. Thanks guys.
