Does choosing "not interested" on games in the discovery queue affect other games in the series, or future recommendations?

For example, I own AC: Unity on XB1, so could I choose Not Interested to just not see that game any more, or would it stop recommending any other and future AC titles as well?

just that game

 

[robotrock]

I should not have been anticipating a sale on Final Fantasy X/X-2 I guess

 

[Grief.exe]

All I know is they can fuck off with charging $17 for AC Rogue

I fucked off after playing AC2

Damn, bummer.

This culture in the normal Steam thread has actually become very toxic and insular.

I was looking up a review someone wrote back in one of the old 2014 threads and it's how much it has changed.

 

[Shadowplay1979]

That's SO much value for $50

Witcher 3 is the game that keeps on giving

 

[Wafflecakes]

First Steam sale where I have really been paying attention.

I assume that the "daily deals" are the deals at the top of the page?

Are FFX or FFXIII likely to receive more than the 50% discount they currently have?

 

[PaulLFC]

just that game

Thanks - that should make queue management easier now.

 

[DukeBobby]

Gonna pick up Rambo: The Video Game for £2.99.

I'm in the mood for a shite rail shooter.

 

[Hektor]

Surely you meant excellent games that will give you tons of hours of enjoyment, best things i purchased last year along with mgsv and ive been playing ever since.

But then again, i'm a hipster.

Wait, what? Witcher 3 lacklustre?? How?

You'll find the answer if you use your witcher senses and follow the red trail.

 

[LogicStep]

I'm gonna get Witcher 3.

I also want Rise of the Tomb Raider and Doom. Might go for Doom. But I don't know if I ant to get more, time is a limited resource.

 

[Shadowplay1979]

Rogue is a great game...but it was 12 dollars on the Humble ubisoft bundle and rebundle just a few weeks ago....and you got about 10 other ubi games with it

Daily deals are dead and buried. What you see is what you get.

 

[Megasoum]

The fact that AC: Unity is actually cheaper than AC: Rogue is dumb...

 

[pretty done]

I fucked off after playing AC2

Black Flag is legit if you like pirates and shit

Much better than Risen 2 at least, the other pirate game I bought.

Yes, daily deals are on top and most likely no, for FFX & FXIII

 

[derExperte]

so how long have you been able to customize your queue?

nice to be able to kick early access games out finally

Since last week. The games won't disappear tho, only get pushed to the back of your queue.

 

[Hopeford]

I'm having a lot of trouble buying games, like the screen sorta freezes on the payment screen and it stops at "working..." until it times out. Is that normal steam sale behavior?

 

[robotrock]

I want my Steam key

 

[TI82]

Fable Anniversary $5.24
Assassins Creed Rogue - 21.99
Dead Rising 3 - 14.99
Stardew Valley - 11.99
This War of Mine - 4.99
Witcher III - 24.99
Total: $84.19

Still unsure if I want to get Rogue or not, and best buy is having a sale on gamecards right?

 

[LogicStep]

Will FF12 get a steam release? I don't remember if that was going to be just PS4.

 

[Ezalc]

Why is it that Mad Max has no discount at all?

I haven't been that active so thats unfortunate to hear, but I know I'll always have love for all of my buds at Gaf, junior through tagged alike ♥

Coop works really well. Hardest part is having someone available for the billion hours that game can consume. If you have someone in the house who's interested then definitely go for it. Some of the best turn based gameplay in an RPG in a long time.

Awesome, I'll definitely be trying it out. Thanks bud.

 

[hooijdonk17]

So GAF, Mordheim - Yay or Nay?

 

[Apoleptica]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Will FF12 get a steam release? I don't remember if that was going to be just PS4.

Just PS4 announced so far, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up on Steam a year later like FFX/X2 did.

 

[Megasoum]

Rogue is a great game...but it was 12 dollars on the Humble ubisoft bundle and rebundle just a few weeks ago....and you got about 10 other ubi games with it

Yeah I'm really fucking bummed I missed it on the bundle. I prefer the Steam version but don't really mind uPlay

 

[Hektor]

Will FF12 get a steam release? I don't remember if that was going to be just PS4.

It's pretty much a 99% chance at this point. Just don't expect it to be day'n'date with the PS4 version. Might be an entire year between the two.

 

[Branson]

Why the fuck is Hitman not on sale at all?

 

[LogicStep]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

Game has a weak last third. Besides that it's alright. Some people give it a lot of praise.

 

[Xeteh]

You'll find the answer if you use your witcher senses and follow the red trail.

To each his own but that feels like a weak reason. I mean, if you don't like that sort of gameplay I get it but they're such short sequences it doesn't seem like it should be that big of a deal.

 

[derExperte]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

5-7hrs
zero

 

[OnionPowder]

Why is it that Mad Max has no discount at all?

That's surprising.

It was just recently in a Humble Bundle monthly so I was able to snag some from Gaffers for myself and family for like $5 each. Maybe check the B/S/T thread and see if anybody still has some copies?

 

[Lashley]

Buy TRANSFORMERS: Devastation DLC Bundle
Includes 0 items:
SUMMER SALE! Offer ends 4 July

What a savings

 

[Anno]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

You can rush it in ~3, maybe 4-5 if you like to go slow and poke around a lot. No real replay value other than dialogue decisions. Personally I was very happy with it for even $20 because it was a great game, but everyone values things differently.

 

[HowardRoark]

Wait, what? Witcher 3 lacklustre?? How?

Also how is Pillars of Eternity if I never played that type of game before?

lol, I'm torn on W3.

 

[Respect]

Guess I will finally get most of the other DLC civs for civ 5 and lose another month of my life.

 

[UmbraeCruxis]

You'll find the answer if you use your witcher senses and follow the red trail.

Off topic: I never actually checked, but could you complete quests without turning on witcher senses and exploring/ following the blood trail or whatever you were following? The stuff you were following was clearly there, it's not like it suddenly appeared when witcher senses turned on.

OT: Really not feeling the sale. I was hoping for bigger sales for stuff like Stardew and Hyper Light Drifter, and now I can't seem to find great prices on anything I don't have...

 

[Sch1sm]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

Single sitting material (4h), and not really.

It's pretty much a 99% chance at this point. Just don't expect it to be day'n'date with the PS4 version. Might be an entire year between the two.

Hopefully a shorter turn around time.

TI pls those are entirely too highly priced.

 

[Quotient]

I am getting a lot of errors during the checkout/purchase process. Anyone experiencing this?

 

[Akiraptor]

Just got Civilization V: The Complete Edition for $12.49. Quite pleased.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I'm only interested in rpgs.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Not gonna lie...i wish Steam would do a purge and get rid of...95% of what has been added through Greenlight...

You could just not buy it.

 

[tioslash]

Is firewatch worth $14? How long is the game, and is there replay value?

I liked the game. Around 5h to finish it and definitely no replay value in my opinion.

 

[BlindJesus]

Anyone know if Age of Empires II: HD Edition is pretty active for online matches? and if there is matchmaking or server browser to get games together with random people online?

I haven't ever played it online, but according to steamcharts
http://steamcharts.com/app/221380

It's extremely healthy in the online department (~6,000 on right now)

Edit: Yes to server browser

 

[Tizoc]

Will FF12 get a steam release? I don't remember if that was going to be just PS4.

Of course it'll get a Steam release.

 

[EdibleKnife]

Hm, Batman Arkham Knight for $18. I doubt I will go through with it for now, but how the is the PC version nowadays?

Been playing the PC version for the past few weeks (low settings last I checked) and have no complaints. Graphically smooth and no crashing at least for me.

 

[Shadowplay1979]

I want my Steam key

Yea, no Steam key but Ubi games on steam open Uplay now anyway...so either way you are going through Uplay

Sometimes you're following the scent of something, that doesn't show up in world.

What about WWE 2k16
