As a sucker for Machoist games (Attila Total War, the Soul series, 90's RPG's, and such) I picked up Darkest Dungeon. Hopefully it's as good as some of my friends say it is.

Got Alan Wake, Scholar of the First Sin upgrade, Life is strange (complete seasons), The Evil Within and Max Payne 3, someone stop me before I buy GTAV, Dishonored GOTY and Watchdogs

I hate these sales
 
If you've purchased Life is Strange this sale then everything has worked out OK.
wait are there no daily deals??

Buy Dishonored GotY.
 
The Bloodrayne games are 99c apiece, so I downloaded the demo of 2 to see if it was a decent PC port. Went into the controller settings menu to map the buttons, but it doesn't register a 360 controller's triggers and it won't let you out of the menu if you have any actions double-mapped, so I had to quit with the Task Manager.

Started it up again, decided to play with the default settings, find out it doesn't support the right analogue stick and instead uses the triggers to move the camera left and right. The menu has an option for 'Configure controller axes', and choosing that freezes the .exe so hard that I can't even Alt-Tab out of it and I have to restart my PC.

Yeah, I'm going to say this one isn't a great PC port. I'm sure it could be made workable with Joy to Key, but my backlog doesn't need this.

The problem you are seeing is Bloodrayne was released prior to xinput. It actually uses dinput, which is what explains buttons not working and the strange button layout.

I just want The Stick of Truth to be discounted :(

Stick of Truth is actually a Ubisoft published Steamworks title, so if it's on sale on Amazon, GMG, etc, it will activate on Steam.

I want to buy Axiom Verge but only 30% ($13.99) off :/ vs Fall of Cybertron which is 75% ($12.49) off. I can spend 15 more dollars. Someone please advise me lol or i'd love to know if either is on sale anywhere else for cheaper.

Fall of Cybertron is definitely a $5 or below title. I picked my copy up on Amazon, but Activision is well aware of Steam's popularity and tends to gouge a bit on the service.
 
Fall of dybertron is always 75% off during steam sales on steam
Other sites could offer it for cheap though

Yeah i've seen that for the last few sales. However It's the fact that Axiom Verge is only 30% off that's making me hesitant to buy it. I skipped it during the Autumn sale because i was hoping for a bigger discount during this sale which didn't happen.

Fall of Cybertron is definitely a $5 or below title. I picked my copy up on Amazon, but Activision is well aware of Steam's popularity and tends to gouge a bit on the service.

I suppose i can look on Ebay for it then?
 
Scrolling down the main store page is kind of funny - it just goes on forever and things will repeat a bit but new things will show up too.
 
Never played Skyrim. Might be time to check it out. Also thinking about picking up KotOR I and II, haven't played them in like a decade and never beat either of them.
 
Okay so I finally bought Dark Souls...

Can anyone point me in the direction of what the hell I do to make the game good? (all the Durante mod stuff?)

Please note I'm an idiot, so if there's literally a list of directions somewhere, that would be awesome

To build on this question, is it possible to have a good experience using K+M instead of a pad?
 
So is there anyone that DOESN't like undertale? I picked it up but yet to play it but I know with Witcher 3 even with all of the GOTY awards there are people who don't like it. I have yet to see that with undertale.

From what I've seen and read about it I have no interest in playing it. Same with Life Is Strange but I have to be careful when saying that around these parts. Lets just say neither are my kind of game.
 
I kinda want Street Fighter X Tekken, what am I missing out on with just the base game? Also, is GFWL really needed for the single player? I've heard it was only needed for multiplayer.
 
While we're recommending indie racing games that try something new, people should check out Krautscape.

Dynamic, on-the-fly user-generated tracks (leading car decides where the track will go) with some serious aerial mobility in unique origami-style birdcars.

If Krautscape plays as well as it looks, I guess it'll be worth a couple of dollars. Nice recommendation.
-------
Still weighing up the purchase of the same games that I was considering a few weeks ago - I think I have sale fatigue already.

Would love to see some fly-on-the-wall analysis of the success (or otherwise) of the lack of dailies etc - if avoiding refunds is the primary (sole?) driver for this, then weighing the negatives of that up against the daily surge of traffic/excitement/discussion etc as each day begins would be very interesting.
 
Probably mentioned, but if you want Shadow of Mordor GOTY its $9 on GMG with the 20% off coupon. Pretty sure they were confirmed to an official reseller for WB so don't need to worry about getting a grey market key.

Oh this is very tempting. It seems like a great deal at that price! I've bought about $60 this sale already but this is at a good price point that I may just impulse buy it tomorrow.
 
What mods are recommended? I am playing on a mediocre laptop, so any graphical mods are a giant nope.

oh man I don't know any off the top of my head. truth be told mods just made it from hot garbage to slightly above average. I have like 100 hrs on it on steam but thats mostly cause I spent a lot of time fucking with the mods to make sure they worked properly and shit. I like fallout 3 more than skyrim.

WTF are you talking about? Don't listen to this guy. Skyrim is amazing.

Iirc sfxt+all pc released dlc went for $15 on amazon.com a few times
Use enhanced steam to see where it is cheapest atm.

8-12 DLC characters that are on-disc.

Extra colors.
Extra gems.
Other shit that isn't needed beyond the characters, really.

AFAIK, GfWL is needed to activate but after that it's fine.
 
Really? I'm not absolutely itching to play it. I've heard the combat is similar to batman and the nemesis system seems neat enough. Anything else I should know? How's the story?
Story isnt all that great but if u want batman combat in mordor setting+orc hunting and slaying simulator def check it out
Ofherwise i would say mad max is better...at least until people trash talk that game next year :p
 
WTF are you talking about? Don't listen to this guy. Skyrim is amazing.

oh by all means, if you want to fall asleep in the middle of playing go with vanilla skyrim. just don't come here telling us how boring vanilla skyrim is, cause i already warned you of it. with some combat mods and other overhauls you can salvage a decent game out of that crap.

mad max or just cause 3? I'm struggling to choose one

hmm... personally I'm not interested in neither but mad max has cars with flame throwers... are there any actual races in mad max? if so I think I'd go with that one.
 
Cryptark is pretty damn great - especially for an early access.

Lots of meaty macro and tactical decisions. FTL and Xcom (planning and missions) slammed into a twin stick shooter where you raid ancient space hulks for tech and profit.
 
What mods are recommended? I am playing on a mediocre laptop, so any graphical mods are a giant nope.

Check out the Skyrim Nexus and decide for yourself. There's a lot of great mods out there.

Before anything else, grab SkyUI--it will bring Skyrim's UI into the 21st Century--and the Unofficial Patches to bring the game into its best vanilla state. From there, the sky's the limit.

Mordor is a ton of fun especially for $10. It's a great 'popcorn flick'. Nothing deep, not overly long. I enjoyed the heck out of it until the end. Story is nothing special, and avenging your friends deaths from other orcs is amusing too.

For $9 I'd absolutely go for it, if only to check out the Nemesis system and if you already know you like that style of combat. I won't make any grand promises about story quality, but it is very interesting how much backlash this game gets now after it ended up at the top of many GOTY lists last year (which many will just write off as 2014 being a weak year for games overall).

Thanks man! I took #9. Someone else took #10.

  • Mild comic violence.
  • Tiny cartoon (male) nipples.

Behold the most oddly-specific ESRB rating of all time.

Also, cool giveaway.
