bought TEW

 

[FF Seraphim]

Hmm nothing for me today.. maybe tomorrow!

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

Will wait for christman/winter/holiday whatever sale.

 

[soultron]

Steam's new Store page makes it hard as fuck to find shit now. I wish we had the old layout for Sales still.

 

[Kamaji]

I'm new to PC gaming.

If I game i want is 30-40% off, is there any reason to not wait and see if it becomes a daily deal?

 

[BLCKATK]

I was looking at Crypt of the Necrodancer awhile ago. Maybe it's time to pick it up?

 

[Anustart]

Wheres salsa???

Nope. You already figured it out.

Wait for the dailys. If by the last day it never went on sale, you're free to buy it... or wait until the next sale when it will probably be cheaper.

 

[Zoon]

did this update fuck up the wishlist and curators pages or is it just me?

Rule #1 during steam sales, is wait for daily deals. Always wait for the dailies. Daily deals are usually the cheapest.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Gonna wait for The Long Dark to get out of Early Access before buying. Looks great, though.

No. Unless you absolutely need it right this instant, there's no reason to purchase it now. Wait till the last day of the sale, and then if it's not been a daily, get it then.

If it's like less than $1 with a 30-40% off sale then you should just get it, but otherwise just wait till the daily / end of sale.

 

[Theecliff]

Battleblock Theatre for £1.09? Oooh yuss

New Steam is a fucking mess. I rely on SteamGAF to guide me now.

 

[dr. apocalipsis]

FTL is it.

 

[red731]

No.

 

[Hero Prinny]

Damn evil within tho. I wish my PC could handle it.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

this is my most hated sale. So close to the Christmas sale i never know if i should pull the trigger or not

TEW seems like a good deal for being so close to launch

 

[Bulzeeb]

New Steam is a fucking mess. I rely on SteamGAF to guide me now.

why do you think this is called "exploration sale" hehe

 

[Scum]

Well, here we go!

 

[soultron]

How do I even find the Daily Deal(s) now? Is there any voting now? Flash sales?

Fuck this shitty layout. Arg.

 

[DogMeat77]

Obligatory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr2GdRBDOmU

 

[Seanspeed]

Damn, Civ Beyond Earth already more than 50% off...

 

[Hasney]

Defense Grid 2 is 50% off. BUY!

See, this is why we need the SalsaShark gifs. DON'T BUY. WAIT FOR THE DAILY DEALS YOU BASTARDS.

 

[Clearos]

punch me in the face, I have $30 of credit in steam and you throw this at me.

Hello, The Long Dark. You get your own achievement from me depending how long you survive my back log.

 

[KePoW]

I'm not an expert at Steam sales --

So with Watch Dogs already being a Daily Deal right now, but for 50% off... does the OP mean I should still wait until it's 75+% off?

 

[Panda Rin]

Gonna wait for The Long Dark to get out of Early Access before buying. Looks great, though.

I might buy it now since they said it "will almost certainly increase when we exit Early Access and launch the full game."

seems they're really close to finishing the game. They weren't initially planning on staying in EA for too long.

 

[Crayons]

I feel like every year black Friday gets bigger

Dailies are the lowest.

 

[Hasney]

Not sure I see the complaints about the layout. There's games on sale for 2 days in the top box and then 1 day in the box below. Very easy within the client, not sure what it's looking like elsewhere.

 

[73V3N]

Damn, Civ Beyond Earth already more than 50% off...

what, where?

it's just 30% off here

 

[RionaaM]

My wallet will cry, I hope there's nothing tempting for me here

 

[ashecitism]

Damn, Civ Beyond Earth already more than 50% off...

It's not? 30% for me.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Fuck this shitty layout. Arg.

There is no voting and there are no flash deals. The dailies (well, one is a 24 hour deal and the other is 48 hours) are the two large panel of games above the top selling list.

 

[LiK]

fucking Valve, another sale to keep track of.

 

[Hasney]

No, it's in a daily, so that's as low as it will go (still not worth it for that turd).

It's not? 30% for me.

UK only.

 

[Theecliff]

It's not? 30% for me.

It's 55% off in the UK.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Haha. It's a mess alright.

what, where?

it's just 30% off here

It's not? 30% for me.

Only for UK I think?

 

[kiguel182]

Probably going to grab Stanley Parable and maybe Broken Age if it gets a daily down the line.

Sucks that I have to renew my PS+ subscription this month. Really makes me want to postpone spending until the Winter Sale.

 

[jblank83]

It begins.

 

[Ellite25]

How is Lords of the Fallen on PC? Contemplating getting that, although it seems like a game that will be super cheap in a couple months.

Contemplating that and The Evil Within hmmm

 

[soultron]

Well that's no fun. Thanks for the clarification. You did a better job explaining than the layout did.

May as well then, or keep it light here. Likely to be repeated games in the winter, possibly with deeper discounts.

Well that's no fun. Thanks for the clarification. You did a better job explaining than the layout did.

They're usually summer and winter. The layout explained itself by not having those things.

 

[Fedemgsuy]

Oh, yes, come to daddy Injustice...

 

[Decado]

This sale showing up on iPhone app for anyone?

 

[Ellite25]

Oh, yes, come to daddy Injustice...

If you have a PS4 it's free in December.

 

[BY2K]

Good lord, TEW 66% off!?

 

[KePoW]

Dailies are the lowest.

Ok thx for the confirmation!
