Elusive Cladun x2 is on sale, but elusive Earth Defense Force is not :(
I'll wait a bit, it doesn't seem like we'll get cheeky price mistakes like in past years.
 
Very weak discounts on the 30 or so items in my wishlist, allot of indie games from the past year with only 20-35% discounts. Will wait on the Winter sale. So far the only thing I'm picking up is Technobabylon, supposed to be a great adventure game.

Exactly what people said last year.
 
enter the gungeon is only 10% off , come on thats awful

otherwise , looks ok so far but hard to tell since the store keeps crashing

Wouldn't be too quick to dismiss the sale. Pretty sure all the wishlist prices aren't fully updated. Give it a bit more time before you write off the sale.
 
Jesus GTA 5 is still 35.99 this has to be a record for a game holding this kind of price.

Fucking agreed. Been waiting for it to get to the $20 ish mark, but that doesn't seem to be happening until 2018 at this rate. Nabbed the other 3 I was wanting though, Doom, Darkest Dungeon, and Disgaea.
 
Tales of Symphonia showing $7.99. Was that port ever fixed?

wasn't it fixed with in the first 24 hours by durante?

I haven't been following it closely though since I own the collectors on the ps3 and likely won't get the Pc version until it is bundled or really really cheap (like 85% off as I can't justify triple dipping for a version I likely won't play)
 
Vendors can still change prices temporarily with no real notice. Ubisoft did it last Winter Sale.

Honestly this is a much worse system just because of the above.

Uh, wow. I didn't know that.

But since it's CDPR... :)
 
Is this confirmation bias due to your wish list being packed with newer games? Or is there actual data to back this up?

My wishlist is largely year-old indies, but I'm not exactly seeing the front page lined with last Spring's big titles at 75% off.

For years, I came to expect that anything over a year old would be $10 or less on Steam unless it was CoD. That is definitely no longer the case.
 
so uh, what's on sale today will remain that price for the entire sale?

That's odd. Kills some excitement/impulse honestly.

I think it was still testing and not released or maybe I just missed it?
 
guess no old games for me seeing that they're only 50% off, and have been cheaper, unless they do some surprise daily update
 
Have to click on the top listing there (base game) and you'll see the bundle on that page.

Ah, yes good call. It's showing 54% off (kinda strange discount) at $20.56. I remember seeing Legendary for $13 on sale before so a little disappointing, oh well.
 
Don't get it, why are you all excited when the sale prices are the same of CD keys retailers? actually those game can be found for cheaper on those keys stores
 
The game still queues up actions like other Souls games. So if you are mashing buttons it will queue up the next input after the animation finishes.

Nah I don't think that was ever part of my issue. The game is just feels unresponsive and slow. Even after making sure I can roll well, etc. Camera is bad as well. I know what I'm suppose to be doing and when I'm suppose to do it but I'm fighting the controls a lot to do what I want when I want. That's one of the things that get to me about the game that isn't challenging but just examples of bad design.
