£4.99 in my wallet. Looking for something short, 2D, and focused 100% on gameplay. I have all the usual suspects (SMB/Spelunky/ShovelKnight/Rogue Legacy/Volgarr etc), and I'm not interested in Ys...

Recommendations?

Super House of Dead Ninjas.
Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - Rise of the Owlverlord
Toki Tori 2+
Cloudberry Kingdom
Vessel
FLY'N
Teslagrad
Full Bore
BIT.TRIP Presents... Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien

Now short is relative but all of these are good, focused 100% on gameplay and within budget

Picked up pillars of eternity, really enjoying it. it's been a long time since I've played an rpg like this. anything similar I should grab while it's on sale?

 

[Ludens]

Punished Gabe, a fallen legend.

 

[Hero Prinny]

yo why can't i log into steam? i want to get my 3 cards from doing my queue.

 

[LFG]

nm. figured it out.

 

[TheOnlyMook]

Received a Steam gift card for Christmas and am on the fence between Dirt Rally and Fallout 4. If I am just playing with an Xbox One controller, will Dirt Rally be any fun for me or should I stick with the safe buy and go Fallout?

Rtwp rpg?
Not many out there, especially newer ones. You might want to check Sword Coast Legends out, but it's kinda poor compared to Pillars. If you're okay with turn-based, definitely check Divinity Original Sin, and maybe Wasteland 2.

 

[kurahador]

No one is buying my cards. Steam is DEAD!!!

Also, the Shadowrun games. (Returns/Dragonfall DC/Hong Kong)

 

[Boss Doggie]

Apparently I already have LotR War of the North

 

[Drakhyrr]

Restarting my modem solved the login issue for me. Try it if you're having problems.

I should've said isometric rpgs. The pause mechanic is pretty awesome though. Shadowrun looks fun! I've heard great things about Divinity too. Thanks.

 

[kurahador]

Any Canadian gaf here who uses EA Origin? Need some help buying something.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Is it safe again?

 

[Tenebrous]

Can't quote everyone, but thanks to all for the recommendations.

A recommendation of my own... If you like word-based puzzle games, Lexica is an absolute bargain at 39p. It gets pretty damn hard, but it feels pretty rewarding to solve a challenging puzzle.

Since this hasn't been posted yet:

UPDATE 3 (8:25pm): Valve has finally commented on today’s events, sending a statement to Kotaku this evening:

Steam is back up and running without any known issues. As a result of a configuration change earlier today, a caching issue allowed some users to randomly see pages generated for other users for a period of less than an hour. This issue has since been resolved. We believe no unauthorized actions were allowed on accounts beyond the viewing of cached page information and no additional action is required by users.

Read Only Memories -- MB-48F3F3FE36D42289 - Taken by Catshade. 10 entrants total.
Lumino City -- MB-8399C90462B7C0A1 - Taken by shockdude. 4 entrants total.

Read Only Memories is pretty good. Plus if you play it now, you'll be prepared for the free DLC launching next month (I think on the 22nd) that takes place after the game's canon ending.

 

[Anteater]

steam is what?!

i fell asleep playing bioshock

this game never ends

 

[Hale-XF11]

Psychonauts is only 99 cents.

 

[Anteater]

psychonauts is worth 99cents if you want a game that just feels long, i played like 2 hrs and it felt like eternity

 

[BoosterDuck]

Psychonauts needs xinput button prompts

get on it Schafer

Lumino City is also really solid. Cute, semi complex, point and click puzzle game.

 

[Arthos]

I accidentally finished the witcher 3. I thought i was in the first act until the credits rolled lol. I must've missed whenever that game mentioned an act change?

Now I feel so empty. It just kept getting better and better all the way till it was over

 

[Melchior]

Since Arkham Knight isn't on sale are there any other sites that I can purchase it for cheap?

Merry Christmas folks. I just stumbled into GAF after a long day of visiting family and this whole Steam debacle is really fucking crazy.

I read a bit of the "warning" thread, and I see comments about it here; some people are saying it's stabilized enough to browse the store without concern. If I check my client and everything seems correct, am I good to purchase some games, or should I wait it out? Thanks.

 

[Nyteshade517]

comes up on IsThereAnyDeal when searching for the US region...should be safe but others may know for sure

and use DEC-COUPAW-SMART5 to make it about $25.50

 

[Melchior]

Fairly sure it rotates. Way of the Samurai on my current load of the store page is the same size as Sakura currently.

Hey, it's gotta match those big ass juggs the characters have.

 

[Teggy]

Is Way of the Samurai as creepy as it sounds? What kind of game is it exactly?

 

[Uzzy]

Well, Sakura Spirit has 228,589 owners, while WOTS4 has a massive 42,013 owners.

GabeN knows what the Steam community is thirsty for, and it's dem fine Sakura girls.
