Is anyone else having issues with this download ? Mine is going at a snail pace and then bugging out after a minute of downloading 200 kb. As far as i can tell my PC and internet connection are fine, everything else is running normally.
edit- hmm could be my internet, other sites seems to be snail paced.

My face when Rabbit & Sean started gushing over Stranger Things. It's like a love letter to old Stephen King books. So amazing.

If you do the KR0 spoiler section without me I will come to each of your homes and fight you.

This was the first I'd heard of Rimworld! Sounds super interesting. It's going on my Steam wishlist.

The GWJCC continues to be one of my favorite ways to find out about new games!

Been playing a lot of "Rim World" once it went on Steam.
Great game!
Really a story simulator.
If you approach it that way, you are all good.

For the record, my steam category for games I don't want to remember owning is actually very short. I think it's about six games.

The really bad ones go into the "AAA to play again" category. The AAA is so it shows up at the top of my categories list.

World of Warcraft. Every time I think I'm finally over it, they release a new expansion and I come crawling back like a bird on its belly. And every time I enjoy the heck out of it.

And I always pay the month by month subscription because I tell myself I can quit anytime. Uh huh.

You know Steam has a "Hide" function, right? Although to be fair, it's really just a pre-built category.

Also glad to see that someone else uses alphanumeric prefixes to finagle their category sort order. I have a category called ZZ_NeedsmoreCPU, for games that run like crap on my old-ass laptop and are waiting for me to buy a new rig.
