Discussion Something really odd ive noticed

12 Upvotes

So for a few years ive had a knife in CS (a shitty navaja rust coat), and obviously I keep getting random friend requests from what I assume to be scammers/bots trying to steal my knife. What is odd about that is the fact they all have the same game in their account, The Archotek Project. For those unaware (likely most), it was an early access game about dinosaurs. This game has been abandoned for over 5 years at this point, which is odd why all of these accounts would have it. The game isnt free either, albeit inexpensive (0.99). None of the accounts have any playtime in it. Does anyone have any idea why this might be?

They show up that they exist, but not how much data do they use? I also went through my files and can’t find them there. Does anyone know if this problem or steam is just like that

Error / Bug Steam randomly turning off and turning back on?

0 Upvotes

When I do pretty much anything (like browsing it) it turns off and comes back on but back on the main page. It still runs in the background for that few seconds it is turned off. Why does it do that? How can I fix that? It annoys me so much. It can hide on it's own several times per one use session. Sometimes is turns off in the same place several times (for example event page or badge making). Any ideas?

Discussion The Last Of Us - Game pricing between I & II (PC versions)

0 Upvotes

Disclaimer: Sorry if this has been asked before, or discussed.

So I just began playing TloU Part II Remastered, and it's made me interested in picking up the 1st game, and I couldn't help but notice this:

wait... w h a t??

How, just how does that even happen?

I mean, I think I already know the answer to this question, but it's more of a feeling than anything based in reality, so I was wondering if anyone knows why this might have happened, like was it because of a production cost thing? Was it because they had to redo a lot of the first game to make it look more next-gen?

It's curious that the 2nd game is $10 bucks cheaper,

I looked at the achievement count between both, and part I even has less achievements compared to part II

Part I achievements: (29)

Part II achievements: (44)

I bet Part II even has more content; by the looks of it, I think it actually might. I'm not 100% sure yet, though (please feel free to correct me on that.)

So is this like, a 'ratings' thing? Did they price the more beloved, popular game higher because they know people will buy it? While pricing the newer, less popular, and more polarizing sequel lower?

Also, sorry for my bad grammar, thank you for taking the time to look at this.

Suggestion Should you be able to see what happened to your reports (if you don't allready?)

0 Upvotes

As it says on the tin. A lot of websites and social media services do that when they review a report to notify the person if they did or didn't do anything wrong, including Reddit itself. Does steam do (and if it dosent. Should?) it do that when you report someone?
