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.

He's been doing that for at least a week

It's super annoying
I'm just wondering cause I'm like "Damn, PC gaming is getting really popular"/s.

I'm almost expecting lashman to link us to a Steam page for Half-Life 3 and every Microsoft & Sony exclusives tomorrow.

I think lashman lowered the treshold on his bot.
So I didn't miss any major gaming news right? These are just normal-ass indie games that are coming out.
I'm sure some of them will be something special. Most will just be a +1.

I didn't really want to bring it up but he's the only reason I'm considering installing the super ignore NeoGAF thing.

Just tons of low-quality and low-effort pictures and links witout any comment on why it's supposed to be interesting or relevant

Not sure if it's a bot or not but it feels like one at this point.

"Here's a game pic!"

".....uh ok"

I can't tell if he's trying to bring attention to something interesting or just laugh at something that, to him, looks silly.

Either way, it's gotten me to notice some stuff I might have overlooked and a lot of the stuff he posts ends up being good. At least to me.

Yeah Her Story is legit alright. Came out of nowhere too! Can't remember a game using this kind of story telling method before. Highly recommended for the asking price.
 
I knew most people wouldn't have a problem with it, but I though I'd just post my opinion.
If people like it cool, go ahead.

I think really interesting stuff gets lost if you post everything
It's super annoying getting updated on new releases on Steam. I'd rather have more anime/waifu posts.

Yeah that's exactly what I was talking about. You got me

They should be paying lash, he's giving them free PR.
Promotion can help a game a lot.

Though sometimes his effort can be pretty underwhelming. But hey any PR, is still better than a Ubisoft PR.
 
I will say that I prefer when he makes one post with multiple games rather than multiple posts with a single game. Like, a summary of stuff at the end of a week or something.
 
Really? Having issues finding the 'New Releases' tab? :p

Actually yeah. It saves me a click or two having to go to Steam itself. I browse steamgaf while I'm working, so his posts kinda streamline things for me. And as others have mentioned, I'd take them over animu/waifu posts any day.

It feels a bit weird to have a news bot, instead of somebody who actually talks with us, but generally it's alright to have one. Sometimes a new game manage to interest me and if it isn't interesting I just scroll over the post. It's not that intrusive.

But I can understand if Yian or any doesn't want to have a newsfeed with low treshold in a community thread.

Well, if you want it that much~

See? wtf is this?
He does that because some users used to bully him because of his use of emoticons(which is something ridiculous. Almost driven out an user because of emoticons). So to prevent stress, he just posts the images and news related to it. Most of the time he's actually more on topic than most.

Attention, all of you people getting Higurashi in that Indie Gala bundle!

There'a s fully working patch that imports the voice acting from the PS3 version. While it doesn't reach the greatness of the Umineko voices, it does enhance the gameplay. Also pads the gameplay just enough so that you should get all the card drops before finishing the game. It's well worth to check it out.
A witch told it in red, so it must be true.

Didn't infinite nine help with this? Where is she anyway? Would have thought she would help promote Higurashi in the bumdle.

Well, sorry for bringing it up.
Carry on

Everyone has their likes and dislikes. We can't all be the same. The diversity in the thread and it's posts is what makes steamgaf, steamgaf. Hopefully you don't see a disagreement as a reason to leave.

So the steam version doesn't have voice acting at all? That's a bit crap. Thanks for the info.

Attention, all of you people getting Higurashi in that Indie Gala bundle!
This is the horror visual novel right? I remember someone told me about a name that is familar to this. That I need to play it.
He does that because some users used to bully him because of his use of emoticons. So to prevent stress, he just posts the images and news related to it. Most of the time he's actually more on topic than most.
It's not even emoticons. It's literally one emoticon. Over and over and over again. I mean moderation is the key, if he doesn't use the winky face in 90% of his posts. Some people wouldn't have a problem with it.

I honestly don't mind posts like these. But as someone said earlier. It probably made more sense to actually wait and post them all at once, instead of one game per post.

Unless its breaking news or just a one-off news article or video. Then I dont see the point of multiple posts.

At the end of the day people has to go and just look for one post instead of ten just to find new games. I mean, personally I prefer real lashman, not botman. I appreciate what he is doing, just no one want to talk to a bot. Its just not fun.
no offense Modbot.
 
Lol, i guess i have some luck today.
I bought a couple of bundles and Randal's Monday at Bundlestars and look what my "mystery gift" was:

There's Higurashi, which is horror, and there's Umineko, which is a mystery (as in detectives, parlor scenes, etc). Both are placed in the same metaverse.
Umineko is a Schroedinger's mystery novel

It's still a ridiculous thing to be pissed/ having a problem. I really hate pointing fingers, but the Dex guy does the same, and i never saw him getting the same amount of vitriol Lashman got.

Out of those two which one is the more gory, fucked up one? Cause that's probably the one I was talking about.

It is something ridiculous to be a problem. But then again many problems in this world are super trivial that could be solved quite easily. But it just doesn't happen.

As far as I notice, dex doesn't even post nearly as much as lashman. That's probably why his goes unnoticed. I haven't seen Copons lately, but back then lashman would reference Copons almost every chance he got (nothing wrong with that, that cat was cute) and with a winky face.

Tbh, I can't even remember the last time dex even posted or with a an emoticon for that matter. He might have, I probably just missed it.
Higurashi, no doubt about it.
Thanks Caerith and Knurek. I'll be making my way to Indiegala then.

Ohhh there's an anime? Noted. Been looking for something new to watch. Been feeling the need to be scared shirtless or creeped out.
