It's that time of the year once more, where I give away games for free in the spirit of the holidays. For those of you who are new, I've been doing this for several years now. Though the model changed last year as Steam no-longer allows me to buy a list of games to gift away specifically, I am now instead working with a budget up to which I'll spend money to get you free games. It'll be on going until it runs out, or until seasons are out and the thread just gradually disappears from sight.
The current state of budget: All Done(According to steam [like it really isn't] 1 € = 1 $)
I will be updating that as games are gifted. Now there's few things you should know first:
- Steam only.
- I will only be purchasing games/expansions currently on discount for you.
- I will remain at a general maximum of ~35 euros/$ per game/expansion, per person.
- I'm going to try to spread the altruism around, so my main goal is to ensure that as many as possible will be accounted for rather than just selective few.
- I will mostly be looking this once per day.
- Post in this topic, PM over forums, or contact me via discord. Add your steam ID as well as the game you'd like to get. I've got a lot of accumulated steam contacts from past years of doing this, odds are that I don't remember you.
- Incase of low budget remaining: I will be biased towards cheaper games/expansions/purchases.
Now's a great opportunity to go for some of those short games that have a great story, such as Rumu - it's free for you after all! But I won't argue with your changes. Go for what makes your holidays better!
PS. Despite this requires us to become steam contacts, these aren't babysteps for friendship. :P Steam requires us to be "friends" via mechanics to gift games, but as far as I'm concerned, you can toss me out like an old rag the moment you get the game and we're still all cool.
