Not to be morbid, but I found out a friend/former co-worker of mine passed away via Steam. He had been offline for a super long time and one day I saw his account pop up as in game. I decided to say hi, only to find out it was his son. The son told me that my friend has passed about a year prior and he had taken over his father's account.

It was such a shock I had to sit and contemplate it for a while. I still don't quite believe it to this day.

Creepy’s shit ever was a friend’s wife logged on to his PC about a week after the funeral to play a game.

Dude has been offline for longer than I’ve had my account

It’s roughly 16 years 9 months, for those too lazy to do the math.

it looked exactly like that until like a year ago or something. steam is the only app i know that got updated like every single day and literally nothing changed in it for years at a time.

Why is peppa pig on steam? Who’s spending 1 year playing this game?

The question should be: Who is spending more than 21 hours per day on Peppa Pig in the last two weeks?

Cube6392 ,

I have a huge number of hours logged in PikuNiku because after completing the tutorial I forgot to close it and so it just ran in the background 24/7 for a couple of months

I’m afraid to ask how you didn’t notice that it was running in the background and why your PC is running nonstop for months 🫣

I wish the gui would have a Rust backend rather than being chrome, using Tauri it would require a lot less resources

Before the UI overhaul you were able to disable the WebHelper, significantly decreasing RAM usage. I’m also facing the same issue with the vrdashboard process from SteamVR, which is just a Chromium/Electron instance

Computers can accept multiple inputs at the same time just fine. A mouse and a keyboard are two completely separate controllers. It’s up to the game developers to make it work.

You can even accept multiple mouse and keyboard inputs at the same time.

I don’t know if a $35 game would count for this, but RimWorld has absorbed vast amounts of my life, and it is a very good game.

I bought Minecraft way way back when it was pretty new and nobody was talking about it for about $1.50. Like a month or so later, they dropped the survival update that put it on the map.

Got MC for something like $10 in their early alpha/beta period. Probably my most played game over the last 10+ years with how many times I’ve gone back to it and dived into one modpack or another. It’s just astounding the amount of momentum that game has had, with both Mojang developed content and fan developed.

ekky43 ,

Minecraft is grand! But I got kinda stumped when Microsoft bought Mojang back around update 1.8. 0, and instantly tried to screw up all the modders.

Some of the mods have come back, and many new created, but it just doesn’t feel the same to me. :(

ech ,

I don’t think I got into modding until after that, after it got much easier to use. There are definitely some fantastic mods and packs being released these days though. It’s definitely still a vibrant scene.

Godort , in What game is this for you?

To the Moon.

It’s a cute little RPG-maker adventure game and by the end of it I was ugly crying

Haha same. There’s a sequel, but I don’t know if I am emotionally prepared for it.
