a1: a simple 'clear shopping cart' to remove all games in it in a single click.. and a better system to manage downloads, maybe directly from ingame overlay

1: "Hide this game". After I beat a game, I don't want to have to stare at it in my library (especially the linear single-playthrough type games). Of course there'd have to be a "view hidden games" option somewhere too, but basically I just want better tools for organizing my library overall.

Guess I'll have to find this addon and see what it's about.

1. I like the way it is, right now
2. It's a good thing for the developer, so they can have paying alpha/beta tester (more found for the project, i hope). On the other side, the the user is forced to rely on the promises of the developer (for me is not a good thing, try to think about The War Z)

1. I prefer the older version
   2.Actually I don't really need it, I can wait till the final release!

For question 2:
I think it's a great addition for the developers to be able to have beta testers (alpha is way too early to be on Steam, in my opinion) and get good feedback from the customers as to different bugs or issues with the game that can be fixed before actual release. It's another tool to assist with making sure that a fully released game has as few of bugs as possible.
From a customer standpoint, it's both good and bad. Good because you can get the game sooner, help out with it or just enjoy playing it. More time to learn the game and, especially in competitive games, learn the best way to go about it. But bad because some of those promises for full release might not be fulfilled before the game gets to that point and then you have a game that you paid early access for that you might not enjoy much because of an unfulfilled promise.

thank you

Thank you!

Thanx!

Thank you :)

Thanks a lot!

A1: It doesn't really do much. The whole interface is actually rather poor and needs to be streamlined and rethought. I'm not talking about skins, but structure.

thank you

Re question 2: I love it. It lets gamers try out a title long before it's finished, and gives devs a way to get feedback so they can better polish their game. Right now Drunken Robot Pornography is early access, and I'll probably be buying it once I get enough money to. I loved playing it during the bit of alpha time that I had.

Of course this only works if devs are honest about what you'll be getting.

Thanks for a chance to win this awesome game, and happy Easter to you too.

Thanks :D

Thanks! What is the early access game? I havent looked into it yet.

1. No new features needed for the time being, just improve the response speed of the current UI.
2. Haven't checked it yet, but it looks like an idea which could work.
   Also, thanks a lot!

While I personally think pre-paying for games is a bad idea, I believe consumers have the right to make their own decision in the matter.

Some people say that pre-ordering is an "investment" in the game. I would say it's more like a gamble than an investment. People who invest in a company or product have some say in how the business pursues the goal of a successful product. Also, an investor takes on the risk with both possible gain and possible loss as an outcome. The guy who pre-orders a game does so without any say in production, nor does he gain anything if the game is a success. In short, pre-ordering a game incurs all of the risk without any of the reward, and is therefore just plain dumb.

"Well, I'm going to buy the game anyway, whether or not it is decent, so I may as well pay ahead of time." All I can say in response to that is, "May God fix your brain." Seriously, it's because people are willing to pay full price for a crappy product that businesses are able to sell crappy products.

soapbox off

2) Not really interested in this. Feels like being a free tester

Thanks!!
2) seems okay. But some may cause some customers confusion.

Thank you for this awesome opportunity for the community!

Thanks!
