Adding a game.. is stupidly defficult Thread - Desura

Hey, yeah i'm new here.. and some people might take that as an easy target to shoot down...
but please keep to the topic instead and just say you're take on this.

Only reason i ever got Desure was because of some games in the current Indie Gala October, that had to be activated on here, i didn't know how to activate them clicked all the tabs and nothing worked.. finally figured out that bright blue logo also was a menu tab, and found my way around.. but hey.. why the *bib* does it have to be so defficult to do some thing as simple as adding a game to a peice of software that for me, is trying to be a storage box for games, and build up a community around that. why is a basic feature that it works around hidden away.

I was thinkin if this was some thing like a website, you would go away if you hadn't seen any thing on the site after atleast 5 sec. because you thought that the site was down or some thing, most people actually turn away after 5 sec. or less.
So having this software, hiding its basic features just seems stupid to me, why not make a big fat button along with the others or under Games etc. saying Add game code or some thing.

Would be like going to the market and they had hidden all the items which they should sell.

btw. i am sorry if this is in the worng place, but as i said i am new here, and i think my topic is valid as i couldn't find any thing around about the same topic.

I'm fine with it been use to it for over a year but yeah I had to look up how to do it at first would be nice if it said "add game" instead of "tools" because you wouldn't think to look there even or know it would open up more tabs.

it is terrible when you do try adding games and it takes an hour to search your fast pc....

How do you add games anyway? I'm trying to add my copy of Crysis so I can get a customisation mod and my games library is empty, despite scanning my computer twice and specifying the correct directory.

Finally found it: click on gifts under PLAY menu at the bottom of the screen...

Indiedb.com

Took me forever to find the link the first time I added a game =/

NebulaProphet, thanks for the info.It's really a shame it's not intuitive at all.
