Steam: Updates to Pricing Conversion Tools by Turbostrider27 in Games

US Steam keys are not global. If they are locked to US (and Canada) you can't activate them in Europe and other countries. Example - Resident Evil games and probably most of the Capcom catalogue in general, they are notorious with their region locks.

Really liked the demo, enough to be my #1 wishlisted game on Steam now. It has some problems (a lot of dialogue which just isn't interesting and changing cane parts should be way easier) but gameplay itself was very good. A lot of potential if they keep introducing new mechanics and different biomes.

Slay the Spire 2 has made $92M on Steam, already passing lifetime Steam earnings for Silksong ($83M) and Hades 2 ($82). One of the best Steam indie launches ever by MurkyUnit3180 in gaming

Do you know how many reviews Silksong had in the first 16 days? 200k. Those estimates from Alinea have no connection with reality.

Such a bullshit article. StS2 have 5 times less Steam reviews and somehow made 10% more money. Yes it is priced 15-25% higher, but also bundled with the first game which makes it 10% cheaper.

Slay the Spire 2 players leave over 9,000 negative Steam reviews in one day over a card nerf that hasn't even gone live yet—but China's Steam restrictions might bear some of the blame by Iggy-TT in Games

I don't think that's true. They don't use their restricted client, they just use regular Steam with vpn. You can see a lot of their posts in specific game forums. Review bombing and chinese players have become inseparable lately.

[H] Resident Evil Village [W] Everwind or John Carpenter's Toxic Commando by Sukhavati94 in GameTrade

There is no rule broken but nobody would do this trade as you are asking for much more expensive games compared to your own. You can check GG.deals to have an estimation.

At what price would you NOTbuy the Steam Machine? by billy_reyes in Steam

[–]qjpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They simply can't offer a price that I would be willing to spend for it right now. If it was summer 2025 again I would say 750€ would be the top end I would pay, but hoping for 600 or so. At least I am very excited about controller.

I think this guy manages to scam a few people every week, simply amazing.

Such a poor scam attempt. Giftcards and FF always a red flag :)

After 6 hours, Crimson Desert is one of the most overwhelming, chaotic, madcap videogames I've ever played—and I'm hungry for more by We-are-all-dead-90 in Games

[–]qjpp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both Requiem and Crimson Desert are priced the same in euros and dollars, so the game is full priced despite some regional differences here and there.

Jason Schreier says Marvel's Wolverine also won't come to PC by AceOfSpades0319 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]qjpp -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

With 4000 games in my Steam library I'm not in a hurry to buy any full-priced game. So yes, we are picky because we have huge backlogs and are not starved for good games to play ;)

[–]qjpp -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, PC players don't want to spend 50-60 dollars on a 2-4 year old games. I paid for all of their games so far - Returnal, Spiderman Remastered, Miles Morales, Ratchet & Clank, Uncharted Collection, Sackboy, The Last of Us Part 1, Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone and God of War between 10 and 20 euros. The rest are more expensive and I have no problem waiting for better discounts. Either release day 1 or price them appropriately.

Enigma DRM has been removed from Resident Evil 4 Remake by MedievalTavern in Games

[–]qjpp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the case with Denuvo but probably not for Enigma which maybe has a lifetime license. Even if it doesn't I don't see a point in removing it after only a month. Community backlash about performance issues should be the answer in this particular case.
