Yup! Everything went well, but it was EXTREMELY chaotic moving between three places in another state across the country in the span of a month and coordinating stuff like payments, new salary, and all that other fun stuff... glad to finally be onto the actual chaos I signed up for... MY PHD :D

I can only imagine, but I am glad it all went well :D Best of luck with the PHD as well :)

Hello!
I left the group a couple of years ago and I didnt play the last game that I won because I thought I would not come back again. I regret that decision and I think I made a mistake leaving without having played that last game. I already played the game that I won and you can check it in my profile. Can I rejoin to the group? I will not make the same mistake again, sorry.
Proof in recent activity: https://steamcommunity.com/id/GIDEC/
Thanks,
GiDEC

Hello GiDEC, theoretically you can rejoin one more time (if this happens again you wont be able to rejoin ever again) however your progress on the game seems a bit lacking which also seems a patter looking at a lot of your older wins. I would like to see some more progress on this game before I am willing to accept your join request (at least finish the first campaign).
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey Mouse, yes sounds reasonable and yes I will make sure it doesnt happen again. I just completed the first campaign of the game, you can check it in my profile.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi MouseWithBeer, I wont pretend you to remeber, but I was in the group and leave/be kicked last year around april 2024, cause health problems.
I would like to re.join the group (im still part of Tele Play and The Giveaway group, that require games to be played)
I would like a mix of both opctions
Im going to play Farcry 6 (its in my next to play list) that was a win here; and I can do a few GAs for the group, Hellpoint/ Hellbound/ DUSK/ AMID EVIL as a FPS theme
Lets me know if im allowed
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Ivannes, as you were already told back then you are welcome to rejoin back when you feel better without it counting against you. You don't have to go through the application process again, however you have to play the win that you didn't play first (well watch I guess in this case). So let me know when you do that.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry totally forget about it, was We are alright.. I do it
Comment has been collapsed.
and.. watched, but seems steam change how to look videos, I remeber I see a few movies in steam and there was a windows on app, now its opens in a tab in chrome
Didnt allow screenshots, dosnt have time recorded, and cant take screenshots from windows, only subtitels show, its may have some anti.external screenshots, but I upload one into imgur just in case.
Very very short video story (1hr) about indie devs, I have saw a documentary from others indie devs, and this ones have good contacts, IGN, humble named and a few more when they talk about giving keys for pre.orders reviews, Is nice to see the packages for supporter (personalized), and a few problematics they confront (time into realise most than anything)

Thank you for the update! Yea I would assume they have setup something so you cant easily record/screenshot it. I have set you an invite to rejoin the group, welcome back :)

Hello would like to join this group. Like the idea of it!

My profil should be public
2.1.
I have a problem here. I've only won one game so far, which I have already played through too. -> Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna)
So i have to do option 2.2?
A short answer would be nice.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Lazzlo7C, since you have also won the DLC Neverwinter Nights: Infinite Dungeons playing the base game Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition would count as well. Or you can also wait for a new win and play that. If you don't want to do either of that you have option 2 yes. Let me know what you want to do.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Mouse, thy for your quick answer.
Didn't know DLC count to, than I would prefer to play NWN:EE.

Nice group, I recently won "Cook, Serve, Delicious" and I haven't started it yet, but I certainly will if I get a reply allowing me to join the group. I usually 100% all games I obtain unless I really really hate the gameplay, which is rare for games that I actively buy.

Hi CrazedJew, you are welcome to join by playing Cook, Serve, Delicious!. Let me know when you beat the game and enjoy! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Well I beat it, that took much longer than I anticipated. Definitely wouldn't recommend trying to marathon the game like I did because it's one of those games that has a very simple gameplay loop without any variance. Here's some images of proof that I 100% completed it, I'm going to request to join now so let me know when you reviewed my invitation.
Comment has been collapsed.
Congrats on the 100%. I 100%ed the 2nd and 3rd game of the Series, but never bothered to do this one. Maybe one day I need to go back and clean up those last few achievements I am needing for it (afaik I need to start a new playthrough for one of them thats why I never could be bothered).
Join request approved, welcome to the group!

Hi, i would like to rejoin through option 2. Game would be either
- DOOM VFR
- Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi X42, since you left the group on your own with no unplayed wins you can just rejoin without having to go through the process again. You need to however set your privacy settings correctly. Once you do that request to join the group on Steam and I will approve it as soon as I see it (I am currently on vacation so expect the possibility of a small delay).
Comment has been collapsed.
Updated privacy settings
Steam doesn't let me request to join though due to previous application being denied (likely need an invite)
Comment has been collapsed.
Looks good now.
Ah I see, you requested to join last year without leaving a comment here so it got rejected. I sent you a friend request so I can invite you. Reply to me here once you accept it so I don't forget to invite you.

Hi, I would like to join this group! I've won epistory and I have already played but i'm committed to finishing it, if that works? I also I would like to make a giveaway for Mortal Kombat XL
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi truthfullybug, you are welcome to join but Epistory won't work. You can either pick any unplayed game with achievements from your Steam library for option 1 or do option 2 (Mortal Kombat XL or something else). Let me know which option you would prefer.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't want to start any new games until I complete the ones i'm currently playing so I will do the giveaway. Just to be sure if I do the giveaway method of joining, I can enter giveaways made in this group?

Alright. Join request approved, welcome to the group. Please make the GA as soon as you can.
Just to be sure if I do the giveaway method of joining, I can enter giveaways made in this group?
Correct! Once you are a member of the group everyone is the same.

I would like to apply for the group, I intend to play A Plague Tale: Innocence, my first win here, to join the group.
Also sorry but I am not sure I understood, do I request to join the steam group now or after finishing the game?

Hi ZeroKasa, you are welcome to join by playing A Plague Tale: Innocence. I hope you will enjoy the game and let me know once you beat it!
do I request to join the steam group now or after finishing the game?
Any time after leaving a comment here is fine, so up to you. It won't be approved till you finish the game regardless.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hello again, I finished A Plague Tale: Innocence and here are some screenshots, this was my first experience with a cinematic game and it was a very pleasent one, the game was great.
Btw I wanted to ask about the screenshots, can I delete them after you have seen them? It's not really a big deal if I have to keep them tho I prefer not to have screenshots unless I genuinly wanted to take them.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Glad you enjoyed the game and congrats on the 100%! Join request approved, welcome to the group :)
You can delete them no problem.

Hi I would like to join the group. I don't plan on entering any giveaways. I just want to create giveaways. I'll probably give away Luto.
One thing though, my Games Detail is public but I have the option "always keep my total playtime private even if users can see my game details" checked because it makes my profile look cleaner. Can I keep this checked since I'm not going to enter any giveaways?
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi PicoMan, I am afraid the rules are the same for everyone when it comes to the privacy settings as we don't differentiate between users based on their intent in the group (the options are just for joining). I hope you can understand. If you would still like to join anyways you are welcome to do so. Just change your setting, let me know and I will approve your join request :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I completely understand you have to keep the rules the same for everyone. But I also like my profile the way it is so I'll have to cancel the join request. Maybe I'll join again some other time thanks!
Comment has been collapsed.
I completely understand that too, if you change your mind the door is open for you. And happy cake day :)
Edit: I saw the join request on Steam was still there, so I rejected it, but it still stands you are welcome to join in the future.

I have reached one of the endings and roughly reached the time stated for completion of the main story on howlongtobeat, so I hope this counts for beating the game for the purposes of this. Screenshot

Yes, any ending is fine (unless it would be like 30 minutes into the game). Join request approved, welcome to the group :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey! I wanted to ask whether Option 1 is possible for me to use, since the only not yet beaten game i've won on SG is "Neo Cab". If it's considered to be too short, maybe you'll let me pick something from my "to-be-played-soon" list. Thanks in advance for the answer.

Thanks for letting me choose Neo Cab. I've finished my playthrough and uploaded some screenshots. Sending request through steam.

Finished Bendy and the Dark Revival today. Reminded me a lot like Bioshock but less expansive, which is not a bad thing. There were a few quirks and odd design choices, but overall the game was very enjoyable. Would like to play the rest of the series someday. It also fit spooktober atmosphere pretty well.

Hi, I’ve already binged the game and got both endings.
https://steamcommunity.com/id/uksus146/stats/1406850/achievements/
It feels like Guacamelee without the metroidvania elements, and honestly, I think it works better this way. I didn’t like Guacamelee, but this one really hooked me. Not sure if I’ll actually 100% it though, the collectibles are pretty annoying to track down.
Platinumed it as well

Glad to hear you seemingly enjoyed the game and congrats on completing it! Join request approved, welcome to the group! :)

I played about 3 hours of the game and triggered credits a few times. HLTB says the game takes 2 hours for a normal playthrough.
I love FMV games just for the campy aspects and while not pure gold this one was mildly entertaining and I got my time's worth with it.
*I forgot to take some screenshots. I'll take some in a bit. Never really use the feature on steam that much lol so idk how they work
Comment has been collapsed.
Congrats on beating the game! I am glad it is mildly entertaining at least!
I am afraid before I can accept you into the group I will need some screenshots (should be pretty easy to upload some, but if you need help let me know). If the game has some menu when you can see which routes you have taken/save files/decision trees/anything like that you can take a screenshot of that so you don't need to replay the game or anything.
Comment has been collapsed.
I just uploaded some on my profile unlisted, if you need them to be public just let me know.

Quick note: I been sick + really really busy, so there has been a bit of delay with PA related stuff. I will try my best to catch up with everything slowly over the weekend. Thanks for your patience :)

Took me a bit but here I am. I got my share of cringe in a couple of places (Oh no, the evil Russians almost destroyed this ancient structure! buries it under rubble two minutes later), but the gameplay is definitely more interesting than the previous game.

I thought it would be a nice joke. :) And this skin proves I beat the campaign too!
The Angel of Darkness had so much potential -- it's a shame devs couldn't deliver it.

so, i tried to apply like, a year or 2 ago. I was gonna pay Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, but my PC is potato and the 71 minutes I managed to play of it were enough to tell me I wouldnt be able to beat it on this hardware. Would it be possible to try again? I was thinking either: The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante; or Beholder

Steam is having some issues for the past few hours and it is currently showing 0 screenshots for you when I try to load them even tho it clearly states you have 18 screenshots uploaded... I will take a look at it tomorrow by when it will be hopefully fixed. Just wanted to let you know so you don't think you are getting ignored.

hey hey, so I won a PA gift. Distant Worlds Universe. I didnt realize how Windows restricted it was, apparently it needs 32-bit IE6 and Proton is exclusively 64-bit. The internet hints that theres ways to get it working on Linux with winetricks, but like, the extent of my winetricks knowledge is that it exists. Im trying to figure out the command line steps to make it playable, but I have a lot to learn before I'll have the fluency.
I still have 4 weeks on my clock, so I'm optimistic, I just wanted to let you know early. I'm not trying to get a pass on the rules or anything, just a heads up so that if I do fail, you at least know I was trying and it wasnt some 11th-hour-fumbling-for-an-excuse. Wish me luck type stuff.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey, making sure the game will work on their system is on the person who has entered the GA before they enter for it. If there was no way of knowing that the game wouldn't have worked (if there is some bug or some requirement that is not stated on the Store page) that is obviously another story. But in this case the store page clearly shows no Linux support and it is very clearly obvious on Proton.db that the game does not work with Proton, so I am afraid you will have to either find a way to play the game or you will be kicked from the group.
I do wish you the best of luck tho, I been using Linux since 2015 so I had my fair share of headaches trying to get games to run as they should on there. At least nowadays 99+% of games work straight out of the box (unless you use Linux on a ARM Macbook, but thats a story for another day), but I remember the dark, dark times before Proton and I never wanna go back there again lol.

like, a lot of windows users cant get this to run.. it was a slog, i had to learn how to spin up a VM.. and spin up a Windows VM
and it still took like 4 hours of delving and testing to find the right combination of solutions.. but i fuggin figured it out
:D
werent never tryin to sidestep the rules.. just dint know how long id need to solve it.. but i think i can make up for 8 hours with a 4 week deadline

Congrats on getting it to run! And I hope you enjoy the game and don't run in any more issues with it!

okay, sooo, i got it to run, but i have to do it outside steam in win8 compatability mode, so im not getting achievements or playtime. is a victory screenshot adequate proof?
Comment has been collapsed.
I am not the admin, I just check the game, it seems to have an achievement tab inside the game, you can capture that, along with each victory, that would help!
Watch the video starting at 23:36
Comment has been collapsed.
You have some recent playtime on it from today and yesterday. Is it from just running the launcher?
I will accept it with a lot of screenshots showing you playing the game uploaded to Steam (if you need help with that let me know, tho considering you got this thing running I would imagine this shouldn't be a problem lmao) and a screenshot of the achievement tab that Jztr shared bellow would be great. If you can also give me an estimate how long you have played would be wonderful too (you can keep the launcher running while playing it if that works for example to make it easy).
Comment has been collapsed.
Yea, the recent playtime is from trying to start it from the in steam launcher. which takes u to an unclickable start game button. I have like 6 hours that werent counted.
- Having the launcher running on my Linux while I play in the Virtualbox is a smart idea, Ill do that.
- Can u upload pictures to steam that werent taken thru steam? the internet suggests you can, ill see if i can figure that out... or i can make an imgur
sorry this has to be complicated. thanks for the accommodations and such
Comment has been collapsed.
Can u upload pictures to steam that werent taken thru steam?
Yea, its not incredibly complicated, just an annoying amount of steps. You:
- you make a new folder with the Appid as the name in the screenshot folder location of Steam. For me that is
/home/<pcname>/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<id>/760/remote/<appid>. In this case the appid is 261470. If you screenshot directly from virtual box instead you will have to look up what the path is for windows because I have absolutely no idea. - Inside that folder you make a folder called "screenshots"
- Inside the screenshots folder you make a folder called "thumbnails"
- You put the screenshots both in the "screenshots" and "thumbnails" folder
- You optionally restart Steam. I had it work before without restarting, but last time I have done it a couple of months ago I had to restart for them to show up.
- The screenshots show up like you would have taken them normally in Steam and you upload them.
Its easiest if you just take a look at a different game you have taken screenshots of before and just copy that.
Comment has been collapsed.
i had to make a folder for the appid to even get them in there, but it mostly works.
I got 30 some up, but they did not up in chronological order

Hello MouseWithBeer,
I would like to join the group with option1, however the only games I won are 2 adult games, never played them though. Should I go with them or I am not eligable to go with option1?
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Afterlife120, you are welcome to join, however those 2 games are not going to work. Not because they are adult games, but because they are too short. In your case you can either wait for a new win that would work for option 1 or join with option 2.

Nvm, I rejoined Unlucky7, so I can now view my last two wins from PA — Lost Castle and Idol Magical Girl Chiru Chiru Michiru Part 1. Since they were shared giveaways, I’m currently working on clearing them out. I’ll notify you once I finish.
By the way, could you please confirm those games for me?
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry for the late response, I didn't have much time in the past couple of days. It was actually only Lost Castle that was the problem (for future use you can see your group wins here). Since your playtime is fine now, you can rejoin, however please note that if you get kicked again you won't be able to rejoin anymore.
If you can request to join the group on Steam here, if you can not let me know and I will send you an invite.

Hi Meokk, I think it very clearly (even in bold) states in the join instructions that no, Train Station Renovation does not work. Sticky Business is fine, so let me know once you beat the game. And please do take a look at the group FAQ to make sure there is nothing else unclear there.

I'd like to join ! Pretty easy completing all my won games !00%... because i haven't won one yet ;)
