The Steam Summer Sale is fast approaching and it wants to burn a hole in your wallet, so why not reinforce your pockets with a bit of free virtual money? Valve’s recently-released Trading Card system allows users to earn Steam Wallet funds simply by playing a game. In this post, we will explore a few tips for making money from the Trading Cards system, but we’ll start with the basics.
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.
Dive into the best Metroidvania games on Steam, from hidden gems to top-rated classics, and embark on unforgettable adventures!
Players can pay to edit their character, resurrect the dead and other actions.
Yet Helldivers 2 gets a pass? Y’know a GotY contender by the name of RE4 had them and so does Devil May Cry V. The funny thing is I enjoyed both of those games thoroughly without having to buy a single microtransaction.
What I do consider a valid complaint is not being able to start a new game or being able to edit your character. That’s kind of a seriously baffling decision, but then I think how I played Dragon’s Dogma 1 and I never edited my character and I just did a 100% playthrough on a single file and didn’t start a NG since. So, I don’t think these are really going to impact me, but I can see how it will others.
I was going to pay full price to support this game because I've been waiting for it for forever but I think I'll wait until I get it for free from Epic or a Humblebundle monthly.
I am not defending Capcom, as I am not a fan of MTX in single player games. I do however belive they were open to reviewers about having MTX in their game. The reviewers just decided to leave that part out. Which is very disingenuous. There are some companies that get away with these things. Image if this was done by EA, Ubisoft, or even Activision? I am positive those defending Capcom, would have had their pitchforks ready if the companies listed above did this
You don't really make a lot of money. I guess if you want, you could maybe buy like a five dollar game, granted you have a lot of games with cards. Once you run out of card drops, you'd have to get insanely lucky with some low deals in order to continue on without spending money.
well for me i made $47 before the sale, selling cards for 20 cents too 70 cents.
now the sale started everyone wants the cards, an all cards going for 50 cents too $2 depends on card/game.
i been with steam for few years so i owned most the games already.
i like it cause it finally a option for players too recoup little cash or even make some playing games.
