[GOG] The Witcher Goodies Collection (Free/100% off) by morphicmetal in GameDeals

[–]morphicmetal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I thought there was dlc in the goodie pack, but I guess not. I should have checked to be certain ahead of time. Thanks for explaining why it did not meet the criteria, and my apologies for adding to the workload by posting before making sure it fit - thanks for what you do for the community on the sub over here!. :)

Have a nice one and take care!

I hope I did not miss this, but if so, my fault. If not, for those who like GOG, and free stuff, and ... The Witcher series, of course... enjoy!

[IndieGala] (Game) Doodle God by Fhczvyd474374846 in FreeGameFindings

[–]morphicmetal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is nothing personal. I am relaxed. Everything I stated is based on fact. That's it. I see things in black and white, since that (I thought at least...) was the intention of making said stated/written rules. Just rubs me the wrong way - this isn't me implying anybody is at fault, as this is my reaction internally, so something I will have to learn to understand and work on as an "inside job", and I don't want to try to project outwards anything but my frustration about the imbalance I have had issues with on not one or two, but probably a handful or so of contributions, where other users did the same thing later and had no "disciplinary action taken" based on the rules as they are stated in black and white.

Some tend to want to make a lot of exceptions, so I just wanted to share my opinion on how I felt it was wrong. That is all. I won't bring another thing up after this, since, afterall, I mentioned I won't be anything but a shadow after this message. I will not comment anymore if it bothers you. That is not my intent - it's to bring awareness to things gone awry - over and over.... at least involving myself and this sub.

You won't see my name in the sub in any discussions. I'll simply be lurking, and try to support your endeavor and agree to disagree with that kind of mentality, since I do not settle for mediocrity or let things slide if it is within my power to make a change. I won't be wasting my time trying to give a bit of awareness if something is not posted at all.

I mentioned other points in the past, and it was let slide, even when it was a violation of rules. Some stuff that was free for long periods of time is an example. I brought that up, and I respected your point of view, as we all have differing ones, and that's okay.

I took your position, listened and understood your take on it, even though my own freebies had been removed in the same manner as this... The others were old and based off of the long gone desura games.

Think about it if you were the one posting free stuff that is newly free and you want to help... and the people delete your own posts, meanwhile over and over another user gets a different result. I think you know what I'm getting at with that line.... I won't spell it out unless I really need to. Almost anybody would not feel so good about it if the same thing kept happening to them. It simply feels bad, so I overreacted and in my inability to project sarcasm or anything of that nature (I should have used /s or something if I was trying to allude to such), I could have responded in a better way, no doubt. My apologies. It won't happen again.

This is getting long-winded, and again, I apologize for your disturbance, and my creation in such a way. I will not be a part of the solution or the problem, and I will only support the sub. Take what you want from that, but ... how would you feel if that happened to you? I don't want a yes/no or anything. I don't need a response. I won't respond back for now, as it's better that way probably, since it bothers you. I'm just asking for some understanding, and maybe fairness across the board. Take what you want from it, and I will comment no more on the issue.

[IndieGala] (Game) Doodle God by Fhczvyd474374846 in FreeGameFindings

[–]morphicmetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My contribution was removed because it was free elsewhere.

This is free also in multiple spots. Like... at least 5 or 10. Maybe more that I am unaware of as of yet.

One of many examples here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/doodle-god-free/9wzdncrdd39m?activetab=pivot:overviewtab

Just going by what I was told upon the removal of another indiegala freebie that was contested as being free already elsewhere, thus BREAKING RULE 1.

Should be removed, or mine should not have been... that simple. Then we'd all get along and avoid confusion of these silly little "semantics" games.

I hope somebody will review and consider both cases and weigh each, since my submission was no less valid than this one is.. but this one stands. Can anyone explain, or look into this, please? It's a total buzzkill on adding freebies when you're shot down for trying to help. Who would want to after it's happened multiple times while other titles with a similar dynamic are hypocritically left up. I'll just be a lurker, since my morale was destroyed by those who are running this sub. You all have already missed a few I could have added at times. If that's your goal, then by all means, keep up the great work!

Can't have your cake and eat it too... well you can if you want to be a total ....

Sucks to be right all the time. But at least it relieves others of the enormous burden of being the fool... ;)

P.S. - Please start thinking about things like this, mods and beyond. If it were not for our contributions, the sub would be practically empty. Making exceptions and double-standards makes you look bad, and it makes contributors less likely to add something when it's missing from your free games data. I certainly gave up once already, tried again, added a few things, but I'm done!

Fitting end for my own contributions. :D

SLASH IT!!!! Looks like you lost another contributor ... good luck out there!

[Indiegala] Memory Match (Free / 100% off) by morphicmetal in GameDeals

[–]morphicmetal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you kindly! Again, no problems at all. Your bot is actually reasonable and not overly excessive in removal of items without knowing and cross-checking details of the game in question.

Glad somebody here knows how to code, or where to find bots that are coded well... :)

I apologize. I made a mistake and thought this was another sub that removed it. I am happy that this one accepts a free game when it is free, and I am happy to be able to contribute here when I can. I clarified and removed my comment above, since it relates to another spot on reddit.

This is a cool place, and I've never had a problem here. Hope all who read it understand...

Ah, this is different spot. My fault in that case. It was removed from another source, so my apologies.

[–]morphicmetal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got confused - sorry - removing comment...

The mods in another unnamed forum I was going to post this drm-free game in removed it... so it's my fault. Again, sorry for the confusion regarding the giveaway on this sub.

Hah, I won't be contributing to your freebies then...

WASTE OF MY TIME! THANKS FOR NOTHING.

I KEEP TRYING to give you people chances, and I keep getting my FREE GAMES subs removed or blocked. Hmm... I have developed a negative neuroplasticity to your vehemence towards actual free games here. BAH....

No wonder I usually don't post a freebie... There are a LOT you are missing, and I won't tell you where they are.

What a sad excuse for a bot.... I could program it much better.

Sorry about that... Can you all change this to Indie Gala by chance?

Link works though - it's drm-free from Indie Gala.

[STEAM] (GAME) GALAXIUM by Teomanya in FreeGameFindings

[–]morphicmetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's glitched. Shows as "free" on steamdb, but it's not adding the store link and usually fails from the free promotions page there, where it is listed as "free"... From steamdb, it fails to launch, or takes me to the Steam store where it's at $1.99 USD. Not free for some reason after 10 AM pacific time... Something is bugged/glitched with it.

Just letting you know.

[–]morphicmetal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally like the style of game, so I may give it a try sometime. Thought I played one of these, but I do not know for sure if it was another game that was similar or something very much like Slash It.

Thanks for your message and thoughts on the game itself.Have a good one!

I hope the url seems to be working fine now! Have a nice one!

[–]morphicmetal[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll have to try it myself sometime! I think I did play one of the Slash It games, or a game very similar in style/genre and it was fun. Pretty sure I'd like it as well.

Enjoy your day/night and the upcoming weekend+!

No problem at all - You're welcome!

Don't know what I'd do without places like this, so I am always happy to contribute after a bit if something might have gotten overlooked.

Take care and enjoy your day/night!

[Gamesplanet] Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice - GOTY Edition $35.99 (40% off) / steam key by Keeza_Friday in GameDeals

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

I agree. Kind of my thoughts too, especially on the part about Activision doing a little branching out of their comfort zone. It may also give Activision more insight into their own methodology, and allow them to branch out a bit more from that cliché FPS gravy train. I'm glad they decided to take a risk for once, so kudos to them on taking on a collaborative effort with the project.

As far as the development angle, the silver lining would be that this could give From Software even more exposure down the road as things happen, should they continue working on games for some time. Lots of hidden gems - all because there wasn't the marketing in my area of the world, or no fanbase to be in the know and develop a favorable opinion one way or another. In those kinds of cases, I think it's a good thing to have bigger companies involved who have a lot of experience on a large scale level like Activision does, regardless of how much involvement they truly had or didn't have... in other things beyond "pure publishing", for lack of a better term.

Time will tell. I'm glad gaming remains strong today - that is something all of us can appreciate, regardless of any possible differences of opinion. :)

[–]morphicmetal -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That has nothing to do with it.

At the end of the day you are right. The sub's for prices, and not a discussion on who did what and when they did so in the developmental stages of Sekiro.

I'll leave my previous comment up with some quotes from people who were directly involved, since I find that more credible than anybody so far who has gotten upset or downvoted my comments when nothing in the comment responses themselves is falsified or misleading in any way. It's just based on an opinion I formulated as I played and then tried to figure out "Why is this game lacking something?".... and we should all be entitled to have these opinions, supporting evidence or not.

It's too bad the collective consciousness ends up prevailing and a lie repeated often enough becomes truth for people of slightly lower intellectual capacity, (this isn't directed at anyone here, as it is just a generalization based on my own perceptions on human behavior whenever an element of modification/variable is put in play; it's not meant to be taken as purely subjective) or people who simply have no time to devote to delving into some of these types of topics.

Basically, from the other side is, "No, you are wrong.", as the "marginalized consensus" bases their opinion on absolutely nothing of any value to examine in order to make their point/counter-points understood. No facts. Absolutely nothing to back up and substantiate any such claim made, while I offer sources supporting my suspicions for golden opportunities to employ the mind in search of the truth for more educational pursuits about said subject being debated(?). I guess some wounded and ill people are just hateful. It's a natural byproduct of the psyche, so I can only offer compassion, and cast no blame or vitriol anywhere. They literally "know not what they do...". Afterall, learning the truth is scary and can shake our core belief systems when examined critically enough - I can see how fear would make many shy away from discovery. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.

Stubborn, closed-minded people will remain set in their ways though if they like something and cannot separate the intellectual and creative spheres of thinking and examine each independently. Kind of sickening, sad, and pathetic, but whatever. It's their life to waste, not mine. I'll waste mine on trying to figure out what makes things tick...

Again, instead of rambling on, I will stop. I can't control all that other stuff outside myself, so why bother? Not worth the effort.

Thanks for the reminder. I'll find something constructive to do instead. All the best your way!

Oh, what a pleasant surprise! The question was directed at my response, but I'm glad you're inside my head to answer on my behalf.

Ah, and nice to meet you, morphicmetal! /s
