Wasn't very innovative, though. They really haven't progressed since forming.

I mean, they do keep releasing the same 4 albums.

At some point, some bands start cannibalizing their own ideas, getting all repetitive, and eating their own tail, so to speak. Really shocked it happened to these guys.

There's only so much jazz-metal you can put out before it starts to sound the same.

I would love to see pyxistyx's take on what an Ouroboros of Pointlessness looks like.

Funny thing is there are multiple metal bands called Ouroboros. I like the one from Australia.

Odd that ouroboros has 4 o's in it.

I suspect some kind of voodoo in the monotonous schoolroom. Boohoo.

I still don't get steam trading cards. Can you do anything with them, apart from sell them for 4.6 cents? Does something happen when you get a full set of something or others?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing, they’re useless. Just taking up space, really. I can help you and take them off your hands, if you want.

Spoiler:

Pretty much exactly what Jonman said.

You can take them off our hands for 5-10 cent a piece.

I think I have a ton of cards on steam. I've sold some in the past, but selling them is so annoying. The time wasted feels much more valuable than the 5 cent.

Just dump them as you get them. It adds up over time. Of course, it also explains why I've got $3.17 in my Steam wallet.

Ooh! You can almost buy Darksiders for what you have in your steam wallet!

Oh well, ~230 cards and weird TF2 hats added. Still so many to go.
Just great that I have to confirm each individually on my phone.

We're long overdue for one of our forum scolds to pop in and say, "This is the deals thread, right? I saw a bunch of posts and thought something big had happened, but no. [sigh]"

Selling Steam cards is super tedious. I wanted the option to sell them in bulk. (Or better yet, I wanted the option to not receive them in the first place.)

There's an app that does that - it just goes through the collection and pegs them to market price

I wish I had known that now.

You can sell all cards for one game at a time by going through the badges page. That was added a while back.

Looks like if you try to sell through the badge page it just adds all cards for the lowest price possible, which would be bad.

Not if you just want to dump them.

You can change the prices too, which is still better than selling one by one.

We've all pretty much given up.

Does itch.io give Steam keys?

Inside for $4.

There's one going begging on the GWJ Boss Key Master List.

Cool. I've got keys I need to add to that that I've accumulated on Humble over time.

Yeah, if there's a Steam copy of the game, you'll almost always get a Steam key when buying from itch.io.

According to a reddit thread, Inside does not come with a Steam key.

I did say almost always. Weird that this one doesn't.

Right, wasn't arguing, just letting anybody else that might be interested in this one know.

playstation classic or mini or whatever it is called is $40 on amazon and walmart. I believe there are some good hacks for it that makes it not so bad. Of coarse you could just use a emulator for free. Oh I guess sony did that. So funny.
