Support NeoGAF

[CecilRousso]

Currently in my shopping cart, from cheap to expensive:

Reveal the Deep -35%
Arx Fatalis -75%
Frozen Synapse -90%
RACE 07 -50%
Rogue Legacy -85%
Magicite -75%
Bastion -75%
The Cave -75%
Massive Chalice -75%

That's, while pretty cheap, too many.. Some of it has to go.. So GAF, if you had to choose, which would you choose?

Rogue Legacy or Magicite?
Bastion or The Cave?

Bastion is action oriented, The Cave is only puzzles. What kind of games do you like?

I'm a sucker for puzzle games, so I would drop Bastion out of those two, especially since Bastion can always be found cheap pretty much everywhere.
I wouldn't buy both Magicite and Rogue Legacy either, just one of them.

Frozen Synapse is an awesome game, with a fantastic soundtrack, but it's primarly a multiplayer game.

Fable Legends NDA microtransation cost broke in bait post on Reddit

What happens if you buy a bundle with three games one of which you already have? Does the extra copy of that game disappear or does it get added to your inventory so you can, say, gift it to someone?

Usually disappears. When you head to checkout it'll tell you.

Some packages give you giftable copies, but they're rare (usually Valve games).

Whats the deal with the cards? Why do they show questionmarks in their description and why do they have a "valid until" date? And the silhouettes?

 

[Sir Blaming]

chivalry is crazy cheap this sale. 90% discount is something I can't let go.

Valid until date because they expire at the end of the sale like all the sale cards do.

Most are mystery still because they appear to be unfolding through the sale. Card 1, for instance, isn't a mystery anymore. So one more will be revealed each day.

Thanks a lot, glad I asked.

One more question then - can I move a game from my library into a gift - if I never touched it? I know I can (try to) refund it, but I'd rather just gave it to someone.

In steam basket you will get notice whether you get additional copy or not (more often not)

Nope, no transferring of games. One of the things Valve is getting sued over in Europe currently.

Ah ok. What's card 1?

 

[Deques]

Why?! Why no giftable copies?

 

[Corpekata]

The house from the current comic on the front page.

That is on the marketplace as Card 0 but there is no Card 1 and the Santas Workshop Card isn't on sale at all. Odd.

Is the Market 100% fucking up for anyone else?

Y'all should really get Undertale. GOTY for me

i REALLY want to, but i can't afford it until it hits like 50% off lol. holidays suck the hell out of my money

 

[Nabs]

I'm not sure, but I know that you can get codes by buying it from other stores here (Amazon/Gamestop). Check your local stores if you're interested.

How does KOTOR work on Windows 8.1? Any issues?

I have the discs, but last i remembered i had issues with it. I wanna pick it up on steam

 

[etking]

What game is this from?

The steam deals are too many and the prices are too high, so they might not gain the attention they did before. You get tired just by scrolling through the list and despite planning to spend over 100 €, I will not spend a single cent this year and play Xenoblade X instead.

 

[Femmeworth]

Some of these prices are lackluster. There's a number of cheap games I could get but would I actually play them?

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

Worked fine for me, had to use Flawless Widescreen to get it to look nice but other than that there wasn't any problems.

 

[Hip Hop]

Is there some tutorial/initial mission one has to do solo before playing, or can you do co-op right from the start in Dying Light?

 

[MaxiLive]

I've picked up Undertale, Absolute Drift and Viscera Cleanup!

Happy with my haul so far and now to spend a week with family with no PC capable of running anything in sight

Hopefully I can check my highlights queue via the Steam app for cards!

 

[CecilRousso]

Some of these prices are lackluster. There's a number of cheap games I could get but would I actually play them?

I usually set a rule for myself, that if I don't find any games I know I really want, I buy 2-4 cheap games and really limit myself to that, just to participate. I have found gems like Pacman CE DX+ and Rock of Ages through that.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Why?! Why no giftable copies?

Weird, when I bought the controller both Portal 2 and Rocket League were giftable

 

[d3vnull]

Bought Crawl and Lethal League.
So much local coop fun.

Any other local coop recommendations?

Has anyone tried Ark? Is it worth it?

 

[NoPiece]

maybe im dumb but is there any way to go to your wishlist and tell it to only show you prices from one store?

Ya, you can set the stores you want globally in Settings > Store Settings, or you can set it per item on your list (edit).

 

[CecilRousso]

Has anyone tried Ark? Is it worth it?

If you have a lot of time free for it, lot's of patience, don't mind it being a rough around the edges, and like crafting/survival games, sure. Otherwise, no.

Besiege rose in price once it came out of early access.

 

[Ozium]

Something smells fishy here

early access game.. they have been increasing the price steadily with the amount of content, when it first launched it was even cheaper

from store page:

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?
&#8220;We are going to scale the price with the amount of content available. So as more features, game modes and levels are added we will add to the cost incrementally. We hope that players will feel they paid the appropriate price for the amount of content available at any given stage of the games development.&#8221;

 

[kAmui-]

Besiege rose in price once it came out of early access.

It's not in early access anymore? Shit, I really have to play it again to see what they have done to it. I last played it when it came out in early access.

That looks really good. Sold. Pixeljunk Monsters Ultimate is also down to 0.89&#8364;, and though I'm not personally a fan, many people speak highly of it when Gaf discusses the TD genre.

EDIT: The standalone Pixeljunk Shooter is also 0.89&#8364; or 1.39&#8364; in a double pack with Monsters.

There's a possibility that there's an ARG going on. Small hints like the new "Follow the clues"-background, a small text down on one of the comic pages. It might lead somewhere. Progress halted quickly though but keep an eye on the comic and the mystery cards for clues.

 

[Jason Frost]

That's a lot of P.
