Sounds good! That makes 3.
One more person out there interested? 8 or so hours to go for the sale price!

It's on my "last day list".
Must be a price error, either I was dreaming or I'm fairly certain I just saw it for ~ 4 .
They're not discounting it because they probably want people to buy the Special Edition instead that comes out next week.
It was/is on my last day list as well, but if CS:GO, Portal 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 are anything to go by, I'd say it won't get further discounted even if it gets a Daily or Flash.
Well, shit, I guess the reward badge system works for them then. I've never gotten enough for that to be a viable strategy at all. My room would be able to skip like 3 levels.
Seems like if you're stuck in rooms where no one cares, you can never get ahead because the amount of badges you get depends on what everyone else does and if you don't get any badges you won't get any the next day either and so on. Great design Volvo.

How long does it usually take for steam to refund a purchase?
I came in here to ask the same question. Can anyone comment on the current state of the DR3 port? Much appreciated!
1-2 weeks. Less than a week from the confirmation they refund it. Although I don't know if it's slower during sales time because of all the other crap they got to manage and probably increased refund rate.
The monster deals so far weren't that great. Some got only 10 or 5% off, so don't put your hopes to high. But it's already awesome at that price and any increase of saving will do.
Got a link to the game?
Could a UK gaffer get in on this?
EDIT: Project Zomboid I assume? If a UK gaffer can partake then sure I will

I found that terribly dull and repetitive, even on co-op, but it's entirely possible I missed something.

Is Rage worth double dipping when I already played through the game + DLC on PS3? Mouse aiming and less texture streaming hickups sound enticing...
Also, how many hours of content does Kentucky Route Zero provide in it's current form? It's still not complete, right?

It won't. It's never been more than 75% off... wwell, except for that one time it was 77% off, but the actual price was the same (USD$49.99), so it's a moot point.
Edit: I thought selling one of my old 670s on eBay would slightly increase my Summer Sale budget... but because my account doesn't meet the ridiculous criteria for instant payment, I won't receive the money for three weeks. Never again.
Really up to you on Rage. Did you like it enough to buy twice?
Only the first 3 acts are out for Kentucky Route Zero. The last two are due within this next year, so there site says. Probably just a couple hours as it stands.

FF13-2 runs so poorly oml. Thank you based Steam and your new refund policy. How long does it normally take for Valve to refund our money guise?
I did a refund earlier and they accepted within one hour. Says the money will be back in my wallet within 7 days though.

Thanks! I didn't really get all the flak Rage was receiving and thought it was decent to good game, aside from the non-existing "ending". But you're right, I'd rather play it on PS3 again when I'll feel the need to do so.
Will hold off of KRZ then.

Hi all,
I had no time yet to properly follow this steam sale. Is there any "hidden deals" thread?

The sale is too large for hidden deals threads nowadays. I gave up 2 sale ago on that. Now I just check Steamdb sales page and order by metascore.

I already gave up the game when I saw those stats.I think it is not fair but at the end of the day they are unlocking the milestones (today's are already done).
That usually goes up near the end of the sale.
Toma has the indie game thread up now though

Just beat Apotheon.
Still a ways to go to 100% but I thought it was pretty entertaining.
Out There Somewhere is also neat.

Fighting a boss with 100 Trillion HP.

Oh Gaben.
I only played it in co-op, but I really think it picks up on Nightmare/Nightmare+.
It's true that it has the problem that on the normal (and even hard) difficulties you don't really need to play the game well or make use of the (pretty interesting and extensive) moveset to succeed.

The game doesn't register more than around 20 clicks a second.
It isn't just wormhole that can skip levels. I check the item log in my room and no wormholes are used but levels xxxx1-xxxx9 are still done in a few seconds.
So I put it down to damage being calculated once per second and the sever handling overspill a lot better now.

Hmm... Would you guys recommend RAGE or not?

The Talos Principle is tempting, but it sure seems like a long game.
Everyone needs to buy Spelunky and Dust. They are absolute steal at that price. Some of the best indie games ever made.
Spelunky is mind blowing rogue like platformer and Dust is as good of a metroidvania as you can find on Steam. Seriously pick them up if you don't have them. You won't regret it.

Wow the deals are shitty this year. Half the crap on the front page was cheaper last year and most packages haven't even been adjusted, like DMC.
Ah okay, thanks.

Yeah, that and the fact DMC4 isn't even on sale made me groan.
Edit:
Is DmC worth picking up? Surprised to see it at Overwhelmingly Positive when it got such bad press.

A very poor port. There are some user made patches that fix a few things, but it's probably better to emulate it on Pcsx2 if possible.
I was looking to pick up a few bits of Mafia 2 DLC that I didn't have and I was wondering, is the Betrayal Of Jimmy still not available on PC around the world ? It looks like you can get it in a few eastern european countries but that's it, you can't get it in the UK I know that much. Just surprised it's one of those DLCs that never seemed to get a wider release.

Monster clicker ability that lets you skip levels.
If you use it on a 100th level, then you skip 10 levels instead of one.
Neat
When does it show up/unlock?
Ah ok, look forward to my next new game then. 100 points seems crazy though, lol.

When you join a new/different game and choose your badge abilities.
It costs 100 points.

You'll have to get it from a trader or track down a physical copy of the director's cut, but that's rather expensive if you're just after Betrayal. No idea what the reason is behind then regional exclusivity is though.

Literally unplayable unless you have a Dinput controller. And even then, sometimes the game will just break and reinstalls won't fix it.
