Ah yes, the game that made me get a Steam account, so looks like my steam account is days from it's 20th anniversary.

God damn did I hate Valve for making me get steam back then, I was on dialup and getting Steam to launch was a utter nightmare, and I HAD to have it to play HL2? F you gaben!

Fast forward 20 years and I'm eagerly awaiting the AU launch of the steam deck and reminiscing of how good steam has been for me... EDIT: ACCT created 19th Nov 2004, Steam Deck AU release 29th Nov 2024, so I'm ordering on my accounts 20 year anni

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
