Bought Glittermitten Grove, I hope it is worth the 20 dollars lol.
Edit: Max resolution is 1080P, no 1440P support
Glittermitten Grove/1440p = 1080p
it's simple math

Is Tyranny worth it for the $40 price point? How did it turn out? I kickstarted Pillars of Eternity for my love of Baldur's Gate, but ended up fading hard on it. Does Tyranny do anything different to set itself apart?

Holy crap, an item on my steam wishlist is on sale!
I enjoyed it a lot, until the Queen DLC that made the game pretty frustrating at times....
Both, X-Wing and TIE Fighter, include the three versions. The original game (Dosbox), the CD Collector's edition (Dosbox) and the Special Edition with the XvT engine and iMuse butchered (Win 95).
XvT (+BoP) and Alliance are the regular versions, and the latter is compatible with the sexy mods out there.
It's the superior game. Yeah, it has some things you may find annoying in both, the base game and the DLCs (which are a bit meh), but there is a good chance you will find a mod in the Workshop that will tune/fix/overhaul whatever you don't like.

Regarding the Steam Awards cards, I imagine they will rise in price days after the sale is finished, right? Or should I try to sell them now?

Quoting myself from this morning, hoping for some more visibility. Anyone got any opinions/info about this?

Is that a jab at the Steam app? Because I'm being bombarded with that notification every day.
Those mods do look nice. Did that project to convert all of TIE Fighter to XvT/XWA format ever finish?

I mean, the "one more turn" meme has been stuck with Civilization since before the word meme was coined so... the award totally belongs to Civ.
If anyone is in any doubt about whether or not to get Hitman, check out Giantbomb's stream from today. Start at around the 18 minute mark and watch for 20-30 minutes to see what sort of crazy shit can happen in the game.

I've received three such emails in the past 12 hours, and twenty in total since the sale began. Admittedly, I have over 300 items on my wishlist... but it's a little spammy, given few (if any?) prices will have been updated or revised during the sale.
No and yes. The TIE Fighter Total Conversion project had the first 7 battles before went on hold for whatever reason, but there's a guy that released on his own the rest as a mod of the mod.
Currently the TFTC team is working on adapting it (and the X-Wing conversion) to the changes made in the games for the re-release so it can work on them. There is no ETA on when it will be finished.

Free DOOM® game code with purchase of select AMD powered AM3+ motherboards and systems
A friend sold me his code ...

are there any decent deals anywhere yet for shadow tactics? like a code on greenmangaming or something?
It absolutely is. Combat is different than PoE because most abilities are cooldown based, not per rest. And the game is pretty replayable because of the faction system and the choices you make during the beginning of the game.

It's not the "original" trading forum (a group instead), but it'll do. Thanks!
Granted, Civ wouldn't be a bad winner, but the "5 minutes" just screams RL to me. I couldn't play 5-minute bursts of Civ to save my life. Hours, at least.

Weirdly enough it now will run at 1440P.
I just found the "actual" game, really excited to see where this goes!

A little one, I got three more overnight and I'm sure they are recycling the games through them now. It's at least the second time Turmoil has turned up in one.

How's Rainbow Six? Hear great things about it but I also hear some people saying how there's another paywall behind the actual game.
A few times every day here.

Had mine for about 2 months. It seems to perform better with some games more than others. Anything less demanding on the hardware seems to be flawless. I think the general consensus is wired connection is all but required for consistency.

I really wonder why TESO isn't as cheap as it is elsewhere and has a worse discount than only a month ago. That was the main thing i was considering buying in the sale.
Skyrim?
This is hard. Has a shadow of the colossus feel mixed with a very light action game element, think devil may cry. It's very Capcom in gameplay feeling solid and engaging. Some obtuse RPG elements you'll need to figure out to learn how to level up and get new skills and abilities.
I loved it. Has a new game plus that's pretty much needed. Don't feel pressured to do everything on the first playthrough.
Got my pc hooked with a powerline and my TV is right next to the router. Hope everything works out fine. Planning to just use it to play some NBA 2K on the couch whenever I got people dropping by, since that's way more comfortable than sitting in front of the desk.
What kind of games do ya exactly mean with less demanding?

Take Dark Souls' atmosphere, Shadow of the Colossus' climbing mechanic and add a touch of Monster Hunter and you've got Dragon's Dogma.
Overall I'd say the Souls series and Monster Hunter are most comparable gameplay-wise imo.
TheVoidDragon
Member
It might be slightly comparable to Skyrim in terms of setting, but certainly not the gameplay.
It's hard to nail down one game, here are some off the top of my head:
Monster Hunter (some bosses are HUGH with crazy high HP)
Shadow of the Colossus (can climb larger monster to attack weak points)
Devil May Cry 1 (combat has similar mechanics)
Dying Light (world is different at night)
Final Fantasy (Job/Vocation switching)
It's easily one of my favorite RPGs of all time, the combat and the atmosphere are just amazing. It also has the best dragon fights of any RPG I have played.

I haven't tried that or any other sports titles, so I can't comment specifically there.
On my Link, we usually play local mutiplayer games like Nidhogg, Lethal League, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, Rocket League, etc. Those all seem fine.
While my friend was running some racing and other high speed games on his hardware, I did notice some slight hitches, artifacting on screen, etc.
I'm sure it will come down to your network and specific hardware setup. Overall, I feel like it works well.

Steamspy suggests: Owners: 537 ± 742
Pretty low profile atm and only been out for about 2 weeks, I'd never heard of it.

I noticed the game release, but I thought it was yet another management game for old ladies. I was just surprised it was published by Adult Swim, but hey, why not? I did not even bother posting about it in the Steam thread.

RE6 of RPGs; good combat but everything else is mediocre (I didn't like RE6 at all and combat is what its fans say is good). I played about 20 hours of DDDA before finally giving up. Just didn't care enough about the story and characters to keep on trucking.
Omg thanks a lot for the tip
Trailer was confusing. Is this like terraria?

This bugged me too.
I took it as a sign to keep waiting and maybe the next time it will go cheaper

More like Pony Island, or so I heard.
Aight, thanks for all the info. Should work out fine then, since I don't think sports games are as intensive as those racing or fps games. The price is just too good to not give it a try. :d
It's kind of like Frog Fractions.
Did Adult Swim also publish Headlander? The head-swapping game mechanic fits inline with their MO.
