It's HERE: The June edition of Steam Next Fest! From June 9th to June 16th
Demos, we've got demos! Every genre, every theme, and they're all free this week to play.
Anyone sick of these new games requiring so much power to run?
This is getting out of hand. The other day I saw the requirements for "Hell is Us" game and it's ridiculous. My RX6600 can't play anything anymore. I've downloaded several PS3 ROMs and now I'm playing old games. So much better than this insanity. This is probably what I'm going to be doing now, play old games.
Edit: I wanted to edit the post for more context and to vent/rant a little.
I don't want to say I made a mistake, but I buy everything used, and I have scored a good deal on two 27" 4k monitors from Facebook marketplace. Got both monitors for $120.
They're $800 on Amazon used. Great monitors and I love 4k. I also bought an RX6600 AMD GPU for $100 from Facebook. It was almost new. The owner upgraded and wanted to get rid of it. My whole build was very cheap compared to what I see some folks get (genuinely happy for those who can afford it. Life is too short. Enjoy it while you can).

Why are Steam Gift Games so wanted?
My Steam profile, including the inventory with some Gift Games, is public.
I get a few friend requests now and then from profiles that have that exact text (or very similar) as their profile info:
Hey, it's my alt account and I added you since saw you got some steam gifts I am interested in, I can offer you some games or other value items such as tf2 keys, so if you can add me to discuss, I would appreciate it, thanks, I am ready to go first, and can add you from my main account if we trade
Sometimes even with
I avoid posting comments because of the risk of getting flagged by the system as a scammer.
So why do these people/bots want the gift games? Are they trying to scam me, are they trying to scam others with the games? Or do they want to optain the games so they can sell them on their own 3rd party site for a profit?
Has anyone gone through with such a "trade", I'm tempted to try it with a cheap game that I don't need, just to find out how the scam works...
