I used my wired, and it worked well. YMMV on wireless. Like Stranger, I did it for gaming with the kids

Games awards on on Steam right now. Watch and you could win one of a thousand games they're giving away.

Zackary Levi (Chuck) was presenting an award and went to read the winner, but said he needed to pay a microtransaction fee to unlock the winner. Nice.

There have been a few sales and contests during the broadcast.

One guy was just clearly drunk. Literally said "Fuck the Oscars" while flipping off the camera.

I played Rust while watching.

It was uncomfortable to watch a lot of it. Mainly because the folks don't seem to know what they're doing. One lady got honored and went on a long rambling speech. I was waiting for the music to queue her to get off stage, but it never came. The non-stop cursing is something that's got to go. If you don't take it seriously, why will anyone else. Plus, it was HEAVY on console games. That market is more kids, so why are you cursing like a drunken sailor?

PC games need their own show or we need to unite the gaming world under one platform.

Noticed in my steam store that there is a full-loot, openworld, UO-like game out in 2017 I haven't tried yet. It's "Dark and Light"

Bought it this morning to DL during work. Planning to fire it up when I get home.

Let us know. We've been searching for a new game.

From reading, it's going to be taming heavy. Dragon taming as the end game for certain classes is always an interesting mechanic.

I just bought it. Haven't played it yet, but the reviews have been pretty strong.

I played the Kingdom of Loathing way back when, it was cute. Was thinking of piking up this one.

So far I've bought around $60 in games. I think 16-17 games.
