I don't really care for Steam's NextFests. They're mostly marketing
gimmicks designed to hype up products before they're released. I
prefer to wait for the games to actually come out so real opinions can
be generated based on the games themselves rather than what the
publishers are promising the game will be.
Besides, with a library as large as mine, and so many free games being
made available, I hardly need get hyped about what's coming out next;
I've more than enough already to keep me busy. By the time I get to
any of the games mentioned in NextFest, they'll be years old. ;-)

These look like stupid games to me. I still don't understand what the
purpose of this promotion is for:
