When I purchased (you can check it yourself by putting it in the cart), there was a notice that this promotion is not applicable to gifts. So it might be an intended special promotion for owners of the previous original version of the game. And Steam glitches out there maybe. If this price is available to you too, then I assume it's intended.

Without context this is meaningless. Are you gotten blocked in Github from a specific repository? And why posting it here, what do you try to achieve?

I finally finished the last job in Cyberpunk 2077. Now I am ready for the next thing. As a fan of emulation, there are a few games where I am in the middle of the game and need to resume playing: There is Crusader of Centy and Metroid Prime. Or I start playing a new game such as Final Fantasy 7 Remake or Resident Evil 2 Remake on PC. The Finals is also interesting but that is something I would have to play on the Xbox Series S, because it does not work on a Linux PC. Baldur's Gate 3 is on my radar, but I don't know when I'm ready for as it seems to be very time consuming.

While this is not a nice, I don't understand why this is a big deal? And why anyone would pirate the game as a result of this 2 Dollars increase (which in percentage as ~33% increase sounds worse than it is). Others are doing this too, adjust the price after long period of supporting it. And for such a low price and as an indie developer, I think it's only fair. Also for anyone thinking of pirating the game out of principle, rethink it again. Game gets deals over time and at some point it was available for ~4 Euros (which should be more like 3.79 Dollars or whatever it might be).

The game in question is https://store.steampowered.com/app/1846170/Iron_Lung/ BTW. It has Very Positive reviews on Steam and is a horror themed short game. And the dev doesn't even come up with fake excuses or anything like that, it's straight honest about making more money. Which is fair to me! And before anyone accuses me, I am not affiliated with the dev or game, never purchased or received anything; it's the first time I hear about the game. Just mentioning it, because of my positive words defending the price increase. This is a rare situation where I am fine with it.

It's a little bit confusing title, because it's not Steam that has made the games for Free. This is not a comparable situation to what Epic Games does. Steam has nothing to do with the offering, other than hosting the game on the platform. All games are made Free by their own publishers.

Also it includes games that are always Free in price, such as Age of Advent. It serves as a sort of demonstration of the full game. And it never had a price attached to it, if I see it correctly. This article is either AI generated or the author don't know what he is writing (sorry if you read this, but its my opinion). Please fact check stuff before posting.

Twitch should have a second version targeted for adults and everything else. It could live together with Twitch for Gaming and save for kids. Let's call them Twitch Gaming and Twitch Live. And all problems are solved, world hunger has been defeated.

This will be the first (big) update of the game, since I purchased and played it. To me its Cyberpunk 2077 v1.1.

I hope Final Fantasy 7 Remake gets a good discount. The regular price of 80 Euros is too much for a digital only game to me. I can see it got a few times a discount to 46 Euros. Hope it will get to 30 or at least 35 this time.

No need to check, as it's the same person who posted it in 5 communities, even in Open Source, where it does not belong. So its clearly spam and should be treated as such.
