Paying it forward - ajvitaly - 09-20-2010

After the postmortem blog on Amensia, people are now gifting the game to other random people in hopes they "pay it forward" and in turn buy and gift it to someone else.

It seems to be helping because Amnesia has reentered steam's current top sellers list.

The "paying it forward" movement is still going strong! Amnesia has moved up from the #10 spot to #7! Yesterday afternoon it wasn't even in the top ten!

THIS is a great cause, love it.

The Amnesia "pay it forward" thread continued today and more copies were bought for other random people as a result.

I put this on the frontpage of evilavatar.com a couple of days ago. Gonna do the same with the Paying it forward thread.

Edit: now at the top of the page
Edit 2: Just went ahead and bought their entire collection from their own internet store as well. I have the games on Steam already but figured it would be nice to have a non-DRM copy as well so I can easily play it on my laptop when traveling.

This is a really great idea to support the creative minds at Frictional Games. I will donate at least one copy soon.

Hello, brand new to the forums, but I'm the person over at Steam who created the "Paying it Forward / Gifting Amnesia" thread. I'm making the rounds, asking people around the internet to come to the thread and gift the game to other players if they get the opportunity and have the extra cash :-)

Thank you very much, guys!
