Oh. Guess I don't need to learn Calculus for a code that may not work then. You win this round, Dong.

Ugh, not sure whether I want to get Poi or The Long Dark to play right now. Looking for a fun single player game that's $10 and I've narrowed it down to these two. Choices.
The Dear Leader
Banned
The Long Dark is really good, it's one of the best survival games out there.

It'll most likely work, but there's always a small chance of it not working. I wouldn't really worry about it, though, since they could probably replace the code.
Had a lot of fun with both of these games. Hope you enjoy them as well
It keeps me focused on the game and what's going on.

Definitely leaning towards The Long Dark. Going to get both eventually, just short on cash right now. I think I'll go ahead and get it now.

It's super boring having a winter sale with no daily deals. Makes me not come back each day and likely reduces the amount I would spend on impulse buys.

Quick repost for anyone who might have missed some free games.
All you have to do is swear eternal allegiance to Valve, name your first born Gaben, and drop by the Steam thread in Community every once in a while.

Alienware codes have always worked for me.

I, on the other hand, love it. I see what I want right away and get what I want, right away. No waiting involved = winner in my book.
(Not waiting until the Encore sale to see if what you want is going to be on a daily is the greatest thing)
Timegated anything is the death of me.

Pretty sure the answer is no. No, you can't beat Dongs.
I already tried that. :|
Yay! I guess. How much do they care though? Are they committed?
Or did I miss something?
It's still true, unless you can do calculus.
Good, for every game
Depends on what your definition of "improvement" is. If you thought the pacing was slow, the story kinda picks up by the end of chapter three, where the time travel stuff gets real heavy
The joke here is me having to learn Calculus to even ANSWER these questions. I don't know Calculus.

Clearly the game has an extremely vocal audience, but it's worth mentioning that Undertale is something really special if you can look past the occasionally overbearing fanbase.
But you've already been waiting months, maybe years in some cases, for the games you want to drop to a price point that suits you. How can a day or two more possibly matter?

There are a few trickier puzzles in the later episodes, but the main focus is on dialog and socializing as you move forward in each area. Several of those nonsensical choices don't have much of an impact besides being there for flavor. Dialog choices usually do come back to some degree, even if it ends up being more of a callback than a ripple-causing effect.
It's a hard call to make, since the last 3 episodes up the detectivework quite a bit, but I don't know if you'll personally find payoff if something like the final events in Episode 2 did nothing for you.

That looks to me like it's Calc 1 level, right? Looks pretty straightforward.

Hmm decisions for tomorrow. I can either get South Park or Undertale. I'm a South Park fan though so that's where I'm currently swaying.
Because it's annoying, not just waiting a day or so but needing to check every day (or worse every 8 hours in the past), uncertain if it will ever actually get a deeper discount. The excitement of checking whether or not a sale is up means nothing to me, it has zero value. If anything it's kinda offputting. Not everything needs a hype cycle and gamification to be worthwhile, especially not the process of buying a game.
I'm debating whether or not to pick up Pillars of eternity. It's at a nice price for the base game but then I'd need/want to add on the dlc pass which is sadly not on sale as far as I can tell. Plus I'm guessing they'll bundle it all together at some point when the second half of the dlc comes out. Pillars looks like everything I want out of a game though so I keep waffling back and forth on it.
Do multiple playthroughs still feel enjoyable as you start getting into your 3rd or 4th character?

Contradiction has been bundled once already. Wouldn't be shocked if it happened again. However, it's worth it at full price. Fair few people from the Steam thread would certainly say that much. You might be waiting a while, holding out for a deal. But there's no harm in sleeping on it until the last day of the sale now. But it really depends on the sort of game you like. Are you big on solving things? FMVs? It's not what we all usually play.

On the bright side, I'm saving up for a new PC in 2016, so spending $0 on this non-daily, non-flash Steam sale means I should get to my target savings sooner.
Thanks, Based Gaben!
If I don't blow it all on single malt scotch instead.
Thanks, Based Gaben!
Yeah, you need to get South Park.
It's one of the greatest licensed IP to video game conversions every made.
I still can't believe that South Park & Alien Isolation came out in the same year.

Problem 1 - Difficulty rating: 0/2
If f(x) = 8x3 + 2x + 9, what is f’(x)?
24x^2 + 2
Problem 2 - Difficulty rating: 0/0
On what interval is f(x) = 2x increasing?
f'(x) = 2 which is always positive so full interval
Problem 3 - Difficulty rating: 1/1
What is f’’’(x) if f(x) = cosx?
f' = -sinx
f'' = -cosx
f''' = sinx
Someone break out the chain rule for 4 I got to go.

The game still has a good 70 hours of content, so I wouldn't worry about it too much if you want to play it now. I'm waiting until both DLCs are out before I pick them up myself.
I hope they aren't focussing on optimizing a game that is already available on PC.
Policy should be adopted for gaming period.
Or just out them into a pool of only cheaters, similarly to Max Payne 3. It would be an interesting experiment to watch two wall hackers accuse each other of hacking in CSGO.
