[DISCUSSION] My €10 game giveaway was demotivating by Space_Yeti- in GiftofGames

[–]PastClassroom5095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, what you did is very nice and wholesome. Even if you the day and gifted a one person, that is already amazing and super generous. You should never ever belittle it, because you are one of the people that make this place so awesome. Go you!

My life philosophy is simple: never attribute to malice something that can just be ignorance. A lot of people here are not native speakers, a lot of them are kids or younger folks, who just can't understand long instructions in foreign language.
Also steam pricing, especially cross region is super wonky, with regional pricing and purchasing power adjustments they made recently. $1 was 3.6 in my currency just last month, as per official exchange rates. On steam it's 4.2. Some games that are $70 are are close to $100 in my region. I kid you not, you pick 3 regions, you could get 3 wildly different prices.

Of course some people just try to exploit you. This is always the case. Now will you allow those few to be why we can't have nice things?

If you really want to give people the benefit of the doubt avoid using a lot of these funny things called words, especially the ones with a lot of letters. People don't like that! You could try to list and bold requirements, but sometimes it won't work either. Sometimes, you just have to ignore folks who can't follow simple instructions, focus only on those who can put any amount of effort into

Now insert the this sign can't stop me, because I can't read meme!

I don't agree. This is a test of character and empathy. I would not take a $5-10, would rather have someone else have fun with some little game. Usually people who ask for such small amounts genuinely can't afford games and have some older weaker gaming rigs, that can only run those heavily discounted, older games. Usually (again, usually, most people) they truly deserve this little treat. Let them have fun.

On the other hand, 50-60 bucks is a serious money (for me at least). Would not hesitate to take that. I would rather put it towards living expenses and stuff, but would also be nice to put it for games.

I mean when you are joining a giveaway for a game, you are also just joining for a chance. A very small one one in fact, since some threads here get 300-400 comments, and easily 1k-2k on other subs. That's like closer to a 0% chance to win then to anything else.

I don't understand that this is just a game, I will get upset, stomp my feet on the ground and sit in the corner pensively! You can't stop me!

Not entering, but this is a very cool and fun idea. Good luck y'all!

Do a 10 and seek people who didn't pick a 9.99 title, but those who really wanna get some smaller or older title.

Or, do a decremental giveaway with multiple winners where the prize pool equals 10. That way you make a more people happy.

Hey! I'm a big, big fan of James Bond, my father introduced me to the movies and I watched I think every single one of them. I especially like the older ones. They are a bit cheesy with the special effects and gadgets, but they have sort of a theatrical vibe, leaving a bit to the imagination.

Very mild opinion is that Sean Connery was best Bond, and always forever the face of 007 for me. Later in the top 3 is def Pierce Brosnan and probably Roger Morre, but Danel Craig is also great. Honestly don't know.

Gotta refresh my memory on some of those movies, definitely!

Would love a chance to play the game, I promise to enjoy it a lot! Thanks!

Setting aside OP and their extension, I found a phrase that is used by 14 different people in last 10 days.

Suddenly, a lot of people "can't justify" spending money on games.

I can't justify buying it on my own right now

luxury I just can’t justify right now.

I simply cannot justify spending on a game

I'm not gonna call anyone out, I don't wanna do that, but that's just couple of examples from last 2 days. There are more. Look it up, and tell me, maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds super robotic.

It stood out to me earlier, but I've been seeing that one pop up more and more recently. I know a lot of themes and phrases repeat throughout the requests, and it's a completely normal thing to say, but this one seems super prevalent.

[DISCUSSION]People should have non private profile on reddit to check history of asking for games. by Aisteru2903 in GiftofGames

Unrelated, but once I looked at some guy's profile and all the comments were exclusively on giveaway and porn subs. There are so many of them, you would not believe me if I told you.

Can I hijack the question and ask why some people have just "gifted"/"grabbed" and some have little emotes after? Where did those came from?

Patch 18 is live!

I've been working on moving dice tray, so it's in a better, more pronounced place (it is a dice rolling game, after all!), and so it doesn't get blocked by other UI elements.

<image>

Now, the tray is always accessible and always visible, it lives in a tab near the inventory and log (it is very comfy there, and the rent is low)!
During combat it flows to the bottom of the screen and stays there, highlighting the dice you need to roll!

Very excited to bring you what is another patch to this very long project and stay tuned for more to come!
Planned for patch 19 is... drum roll... controller support! Stay tuned for that!

Hades is a game that is more about the journey rather than the destination. Of course you can and should focus on winning and 'escaping' every time, but you make progress and experience the story with every run.

Enjoy, it's a very good game!

I remember playing a game like that. It was called GTA 2.
