Hey,
I would love to buy the trivia vault selection bundle but I already have a few games from it so this is what steam says and I can only buy it as a gift.
"You already own some of the items in this bundle. This offer is only available when buying all items at the same time."
What is the solution to this problem that really works?
Thank you and I weep that I have to suffer with such stupidity, as I want to give money to gaben and the developer's pocket without getting an extra key in return, as that is not even possible. what is going on...
the bundle is: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/5274/Trivia_Vault_Selection/

Why would you want to give money to those garbage games' developer though?

If you really want to throw away your money, you can delete the games you have by going support and buy the bundle afterwards.

Actually it won't work
You still can't buy this kind of bundle after you delete the games from library.

You can however have others send bundle as gift to you after you detele games from library.

I don't think you're stupid, but why would buying this bundle make you more intelligent?

By stupid I mean steam/dev not letting me buy 15 games for the same price as someone else for 25, nonsense, unacceptable, incomprehensible = stupid.
And you are because you live under the delusion that everyone wants what you want.
The spice of it all is that it doesn't give you intelligence, it gives you knowledge, and you're clearly in a battle with both.

idk it was weird that the whoopy person seemed to go off on you for such a minor question, calling you delusional and saying you lack intelligence and knowledge. If you're the kind of person to blacklist for being mean, nnot just disagreeing, I think it makes sense.

You should probably re-read this thread. I was commenting on Aydaylin, not whoopy, I wasn't the one blacklisting.

jacqland's comment was in response to your surprise at Aydaylin's action. They were giving the opinion that Aydaylin's action is logical.

Please, read with understanding, even though (as I well know) you don't like me. This blacklist is for rudeness of the answer, claiming that the author of preceding comment (in this case you) is stupid and fighting against intelligence and knowledge.

I don’t like you? You’re the one going around blacklisting people, not me.
I could blacklist you for other reasons, but not for not liking you.
There is no need to go around telling people you’ve blacklisted them, especially if you’re not going to give a reason…

EDIT. Seems I didn't see the burn, so I apologise.

But whoopy literally called you stupid. Maybe I am missing something here, but whoopy came at you like a roller for no apparent reason. That was the reason Aydaylin blacklisted whoopy. For being rude - the reason is right here:

And you are because you live under the delusion that everyone wants what you want.

Nope? It's called trivia for a reason. Whatever knowledge it imparts, it imparts.
Lexical knowledge is knowledge, even if you want to deny it.

Unless you have maxed out intelligence stats, one can get "more intelligent".
Also, these games aren't exactly the ones you want if you want to improve, which you made clear is not your goal. (Also as it was said, lexical knowledge is not intelligence)

There is a very obvious joke here about you not understanding the difference between being able to get more intelligent and being unintelligent, but I leave that to someone else to uncover.

that's exactly why I got into mayonese, because he thinks that trivia makes you more intelligent, which gives you knowledge, not intelligence. It is inferential to a lack of intelligence. It also takes intelligence to understand a figurative scolding. I could do it in a nicely veiled way, but grown men speak directly to others, not insidiously.

You glossed over my original point. The fact that one can improve doesn't mean they are bad or incompetent.
I can get more dexterous. That doesn't mean I'm clumsy. (Even olympic athletes train to get better)
You can get more intelligent, as likely literally every single other person can. That doesn't mean you're unintelligent. You choose to understand it that way, and to get upset.

It's the other way around. Which part of it did you find passive-aggressive? Also those "games" are pretty much hated by almost everyone since they are achievement whoring "games" which each give you 5000 achievements even without playing them. Because of many reasons such as that, supporting that "developer" might be seen as nonsensical, which it is, so it's a salty topic on its own.

All those games are banned on Steam, probably rightly so. This could be a good thread about who cares what and why, it's just that as many people as there are and that's exactly why we shouldn't judge anyone who thinks differently. Basically if we look at the very end of it all it is to increase digital numbers.

And the funny thing is that at least a quarter, maybe half, of the 20-30k games on steam are unplayable games compared to AAA titles or even games from the 2000s, yet a lot of people buy them and increase their game base with them. How is that any different than getting quick achievements ? None imho.

I didn't say it's different and to be fair, they're exactly the same. Don't know about the actual count but I know that there are some unplayable games on Steam, usually they end up banned though. Since Valve stopped curating on Steam, those became a problem. Shovelwares, money laundering games, achievement whoring games, showcase whoring games, FOMO games... the list goes on. Free market has its ups and downs. It's good for indie developers because they don't require anyone to publish on Steam. However this gets abused a lot sadly. Trivia Vault is just a drop in the ocean.

People is also at fault here. If no one cares for such games they wouldn't shelter on Steam, yet there is a raccoon for every garbage I suppose.

Besides that your answer is very unfriendly -i don't know why- i am absolute sure that Mayanaise can handle not to see your 7 freebie GAs spread over 9 years.
So the BL is not really a hit for her and, on top, will not hide future comments of her.

So i would say ineffective but everyone can do, with his BL, whatever he want.

She wrote

I don't think you're stupid...

I am not sure how you can take it then as "......that i am stupid".

She qrote a question and, of course, each one is free to see the question itself as "unwanted", "unneeded" etc. but i don't see it as "attack".
So yeah, i think you misunderstood it and overreacted.

Both are nothing big but you, both, are old enough to handle the situation without me (if with a BL or not...).

You:

Me:
To question why something would make someone MORE intelligent, isn't the same as saying someone is unintelligent.

Added you where/to what ? I am a bit confused.
If you mean to my BL, then nope. I don't BL for having other opinions and i don't BL users on sg below level 5 (not enough slots for lower ones).

Ps.: It's a she, but that only as a sidenote.

Either delete the games from your library (iirc it's from support somewhere) or buy 2-3 dollar bundles and trade for those you miss. Waaay too many people have them as they were given away in countless copies (post in any trading discord/barter/steamtrades/yadda yadda yadda.. people will be coming your way like flies if you write that you search those)

Go to his discord, post 10-20 games you can trade and request those games. You'll get a pm. Post in any discord server actually and you'll get a pm. Post in barter/steamtrades/ig forum/ANYTHING that includes trades and you'll get a message. Being 10-20 cheap crap from bundles will cost you much less

i tried ig and and barter, offered hellblade senua to 20-25 trivia games and nobody wanted it. im not a expert trader but i feel its a good trade deal for a free keys or am i wrong?
And lot of times i see people have the same 5-10 title, others are rare.
Thanks for the help, i will try that trading them 1 by 1 to cheap games. grinding incoming.
btw i want wait for 98-99% discount deal so i can buy it for 4-5 eur and its like nothing compare to grind.

No, you aren't wrong. Most people that trade them though just want a +1 or games with trading cards or other ach spammers etc so they prefer a bunch of "crap" for the bunch of "crap" as to them it's more useful and interesting

None of those keys are rare. But 5-10 of those have been given out even more times than usual (he had some mystery keys at some point that kept spitting out the same 5-10 games).

You can try barter but you'll probably find them faster in smaller trading communities. The majority that followed that guy doesn't trade much on barter but on discord channels (hitsquad, gfg, keyhub, some youtubers channels, ga channels like peekyboo/fyty/etc) because it's the same crowd that was first with Prime freebies etc. You are looking at smaller scale traders, usually teens-early 20's and barter isn't the most user friendly.. So they don't really prefer it

Hello,

I skimmed the whole comment section, so in any case, instead of having one account on Steam you can freely make another, buy the bundle and gift it to your main account. I haven't done it (because I have bought games with all DLCs from the beginning or extra the new DLC), so I have no idea if you will receive an extra key for the games you own.

It's EXTREMELY RARE to get extra copies for games you already own, I think one retail version of Dawn of War allowed it, and I can't recall any other game right now.
