Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Das Koopa]

Reading through the reddit thread it seems as though you can't view passwords.

As far as I am aware, people can NOT:

• Get your password, or otherwise gain permenant access to your account
• Perform any kind of actions on your account (purchase/gift/play games, change password, message people, etc.)
• Drain funds from your Steam wallet, or linked Paypal account
• See the cookies of anyone but themselves

 

[Poots]

I heard some people saying they could view passwords?

Is that true?

Because if they can view your passwords, than it doesn't matter if they don't have your credit info NOW, they could just log on later

Some guy at IGN says that he had unauthorized transactions go through for accounts that weren't his, but it was all recently rolled back.

 

[Z25]

Ah well....

For stuff you would care about...

I got....

A TMNT Mikey Christmas Ornament
An Elmo Christmas Ornament
Final Fantasy X / X2 HD Limited Edition
The Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes
Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
Resident Evil Revelations (Wii U)
Tales of Vesperia
Uncharted: Nathan Drake Collection
Two Chairzard amiibos in the mail. Apparently my dad bought two different kinds and gave me a letter that said they were coming. I said there were no other kinds and I got shown a picture. It's a pretty badass version of Mega Charizard Y. I don't know what the other one is but I assume it's the normal kind...


My parents spoil me... They give me all this and clothes and give each other gift cards and gum. At least I bought them books and movies they liked... As well as jewelry for Mom...

Cool. The charziard Y is a custom? You'll have to post pictures it sounds pretty cool.
I posted mine yesterday. But I also got 2 cool lego sets:
The millennium falcon and a fairground mixer. Can't wait to build them!

For some reason, girl's think it's funny/ weird when they find out I like Wizard of Oz

Maybe because they think i'm dark and brooding, but wizard of oz is so colorful and cheery?

Because if they can view your passwords, than it doesn't matter if they don't have your credit info NOW, they could just log on later

Based on what I've heard about what's happening (that people are just seeing cached pages for the wrong account) and how Steam displays passwords (or rather, how they do not), I don't think that's true. I can't find any place that the password is even listed and censored out, and if people aren't seeing anything you wouldn't normally be able to see on Steam yourself, I don't know how they'd get access to that.

Everyone should like it honestly.

It's like Star Wars. It shaped the world.

It's all cute and colourful until you realize Dorothy saw a dead body and thought 'omg dem heels be fab as ****' and took em. Didn't even call the police

 

[NintenZ]

So which do you think is better, Cloud's alt from FF VII, or his alt from Advent Children?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

FFVII alt. Because it's the only blue one, and if we're getting boring af SOLDIER ranks it's the next best thing, a Yuffie palette would have been lovely

 

[Z25]

It's like Star Wars. It shaped the world.

And then Star Wars came and shaped the world a thousand time more, and bury the changes brought by the Wizard of Oz. Until
codename S.T.E.A.M brought the back and then sold poorly sadly.

 

[Con0rrrr]

The joys of living in Georgia?

Fireworks blasting in the sky from your neighbors on Christmas.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

So which do you think is better, Cloud's alt from FF VII, or his alt from Advent Children?

The FFVII outfit, don't know why I prefer it, I just do.

 

[Z25]

Which reminds me, What would your reaction be If Codename S.T.E.A.M. got a sequel...

BUT....

It''s a crossover with Marvel.

In it the S.T.E.A.M. Team get invaded by a force from another World.

Red Skull and Hydra! Using Alien Technology, Hydra takes the world by storm and basically World War 2 happens.

However Captain America, and Captain Britain get involved to help save the day. ( and any other patriotic superhero)

Thoughts? Even though it will probably never happen. But I thought it fun to propose a crazy crossover.

Oh and tagging Opossum because Codename S.T.E.A.M.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Also. Some old friends are visiting from England next year for Christmas. In July. I have mixed feelings about this

Completely unrelated to everything else I posted

But I personally want a spin off

STEAM OZ

 

[Poots]

FFVII for sure. The advent children one looks a little too edgy for me.
I just love that super spiky FFVII hair.

STEAM OZ

That would work and could be interesting. It be neat if they did several spinoffs focused on characters from different public domain books, and then they make another main S.T.E.A.M. that brings all of the characters together.

 

[NintenZ]

Marth reminds me of Sepheroth, so I decided to use him in a match against Cloud. He's probably the game's closest thing to the one-winged angel.

Oh, another thing vaguely related

When someone was trying to describe the "Marvel Civil War" to me

I was under the impression it was Marvel characters in civil war period, I imagined Iron man in steampunk armor

I'd try it. Not sure how well it'd do, but I don't mind the idea.

Okay then. Shulk is the closest thing to the one-winged angel.

S.T.E.A.M. and S.H.I.E.L.D. are both heroic acronym organizations starting with the letter S.

That and since I'm a fan of both Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. and Marvel, I'd but it. Then I could theoretically have Henry Fleming, the Tin Man, Captain America, and Lucina on the same squad and that'd be amazing for me.

I completely forget that FE was in S.T.E.A.M. But having them would be a nice addition. It could work well if done right. Although it was just a crazy Idea that popped in my head lol. I feel like it be a neat idea though, if Nintendo thought they could possible use a really famous name and brand to promote sales and growth of the series.

Oh, another thing vaguely related

Steampunk Ironman would be pretty cool.

I only learned about the Civil War when it was announced. They have redone it a bit, with several versions of it. I own the newer Civil War Comics( well they are my dad's and I was helping sort out his comics to sell in future awhile back).

That movie should be pretty good. I look forward to it.

Also Fun Fact:

Black Panther is actually the richest Marvel Superhero!

 

[Frostwraith]

I find it amusing how people accused Sakurai of being biased towards FE regarding Corrin's inclusion when he himself hesitated to include him due to the abundance of FE characters and it took negotiations with Nintendo and talks with development staff to convince him otherwise.

People truly are unaware of the realities of game development. No, Sakurai doesn't decide everythng about the game. There are other factors in play besides a director's whims.

Well, not like my ramblings will do anything to change people. I guess I'll be off.

 

[Strofirko]

Finally got my hands on Sonic all stars racing transformed,now I learn to appreciate the game more,since the gameplay is a huge improvement compare to its predecessor,and stopped with clunky ricocheting on the track borders,and feel my mistakes,sadly I can't change my opinion towards the unappealing roster,and the fact the game was so advertised towards it.

I found the roster great

Metal Sonic and Reala are more than I could ask for

They cut Opa Opa, added the Yogscast, didn't include Ristar and scrapped Bayonetta 0/10
Metal Sonic is in and had his glorious theme from Episode 2 10/10

Actually, no. I see where you're coming from.

Do you think you could give some other opinions on Smash's development? I would be interested to hear them.

Darnit now I want to play that but I don't think I own it anymore.

 

[Chrono.]

Transformed was great, weird roster aside.

I bought the original about a month back and it felt really unpolished. I ended up refunding it.

You take that back. The original was one of the best kart racers I've ever played!

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Transformed is technically the better game.
But the original has a lot of charm that I feel Transformed lacked.

Mostly the announcer for me, I thought the menus could use some work.

Oh and the All Star moves going from unique to a generic power up for everyone.

You know what would be cool with this? Marvel amiibo.

Just give me a Miles Morales, Ms. Marvel, Old Man Logan and the new ANAD Iron man redeisgn and I'm all set

 

[Cutie Gwen]

To be fair, the announcer would cry if you lowered his voice in the options in Transformed, which was ****ing hilarious. And while the Allstar music is an improvement, having almost nothing unique is always a shame

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

I loved both games tbh, but I agree that Transformed feels like its the better game.

DID SOMEONE SAY FREEDOM PLANET 2???

AAAAAAAH THIS IS AMAZING NEWS

I still need to 100% the original.

----------

I didn't get anything else for Christmas so far beyond what I posted earlier, besides a mug, men's grooming stuff, and some money.

I might buy Mega Yarn Yoshi as well as the Shovel Knight game + Amiibo. And Fast Racing Neo.

My Christmas was OK, though I will admit that I didn't fully enjoy it. I woke up with a severe neck pain for some reason, and it worsened to all the way down my back, so I wasn't able to do much. I'm glad to finally lie down again though.
