I have most of those, but I would pretty damn happy with Rogue Legacy + Gone Home.
CoH2 banner links to Frozen Synapse for some reason
Rising Storm cannot be purchased for some reason

Looks like a Garbage Weekend.

I'll be playing Visual Novels because why the hell not.

Awesome, thanks for letting us know.
Yes, you really should, fantastic series.

Ugh, why won't they just make CoH2 75% off already?

Endless Legend (early acces) https://store.steampowered.com/app/289130/
Is it true that this games requires a really good PC and/or Graphic card? I think I have heard this somewhere. Just curious, as I still have the first one to play.
That's being saved for the Summer Sale, I assume.
Nice game, wishlisted

The first game on Greenlight I could think of is Exogenesis ~Perils of Rebirth~. It doesn't look really amazing or anything, but the developers state, even on the page itself, that it's "nspired by Ace Attorney and Zero Escape games." It's also by the same studio that's making the "grittier take on Harvest Moon" game that was Greenlit.

Bought so hard. Installing it right now.

If I were a dev, I wouldn't do this. Too much risk of being overshadowed by other deals.
Of course, there are probably a lot more eyes on Steam during their big sales, so what do I know?
Well, Isaac is at least 150% guaranteed to be in that bundle since I caved and bought it less than a week ago, so you guys can start preparing your modbot giveaways right now.
If there are any other games you'd like to see in bundles, you can just tell me and I'll take one for the team and buy them.

First Japanese game to do so?
Might as well hold off until Rebirth at this point. It includes the original game, while fixing all of the technical issues and adding heaps of new content and items.
Cave Story?

I don't know too much about the developers, but I thought they were Japanese.

Cool. I need Dustforce to be in the weekly HB.
Before being in a regular, big HB? Would be surprising considering the RL devs have been very slow to lower the price.

During the Winter Sale I thought the Wrath of the Lamb DLC was the Rebirth stuff.
Was so confused after I bought it. Was only 1.50 or something so not a big deal.

Stealth edit: Yeah, it didn't. That deal was mostly for the single-player, I guess since Rising Storm includes the multiplayer of RO2 in it.
So $5 for RO2's multiplayer + DLC isn't too bad a deal... I guess...
CoH 2 is all but guaranteed to be featured as a Daily and while 75% is no longer the de facto ceiling it once was it's still large enough for to attract the attention of impulsive buyers.
If you make this happen, I'll buy you a copy of every game that's currently on Steam, even those that were removed.
The art style of that game reminds me of the Game of Thrones opening sequence.
More CPU heavy than GPU. Unless you're bandwidth capped on your internet you may as well take advantage of the free weekend. It's certainly not a bad a game as some people make out but the dlc direction the game went wasn't what people were expecting.
The first COH is one of the greatest games ever made. If you only play the single player campaigns you can get a lot of fun out of them but the multiplayer is where the game really shines. Still very active and there's some great community sites out there that hold regular tournaments.

Yup, same here. I've been postponing that for quite some time now. Same deal with the Monkey Island remakes.
Yes, and you should also really play Emerald City Confidential at some point.
Thanks for pointing it out. I upvoted and I guess we'll see where it goes.
The free sub includes:
- Rising Storm/RO2 MP (game)
- RO2 Single Player (game)
- RO2 Single Player (DLC)
- RO2 SDK (tool)
Compared to the store sub, for RS, it's missing:
- Rising Storm beta (game)
- Killing Floor: Rising Storm DLC (DLC)
- Rising Storm (DLC)
- Private app 291570 (???)
Edit: I'm a dumbo and was looking at the store sub for RO2.
10% off ($35.99) for the next week.
Well, the major deal here is the Rising Storm content so you can go across both servers (RO2/RS) with no class restrictions on either. $5 to remove that lock isn't a big deal for me.
But I'm wondering if I can play the game offline with bots since getting my ass kicked this morning in RO2 hasn't been very moralizing.
Thanks for the fine answer Dr Dogg, I was just curious since my upgrade was a modest one last year. I do not have limitations on my Internet but I do have in time, will see how well it goes. I plan on playing the single-player of COH soon. I actually seen someone on Twitch who only stream COH2 and seems fun.

On a side note, I would like to thank a lot for fantomena that was very, very kind in helping me out with DSII. So, thank you very much once again you silly GAFfer with bad Half-Life 3 jokes. Hehe
CoH1 was so amazing, put over 45 hours into it and that's without even touching the multiplayer (I'm not big on RTS multiplayer). After having to retreat and defend for the first 3 or 4 missions in CoH2's singleplayer I gave up on the game. Really not a fan. :/
Had to google it, never even heard of this before.
Added to wishlist so I'll remember.

Just played it and not feeling it at all.
I wish they had gone back in and done Trading Cards and Achievements when Sega did the Steamworks version.
I (correctly) guessed that it would become one of my favorite games on Steam, so I wanted to have significant experience with the original in order to appreciate Rebirth more. I already can't wait to play a version without shit like getting stuck on stuff while moving around, boss life bars not being accurate, items that don't do anything at all and I saw a video where McMillen said he's working on changing some of the more unfair rooms. I'm especially hoping he chills out on the heart/mask enemy rooms because they're some ridiculous shit.
A little worried that he's diluting the item pool with so many new items though. It's already hard enough to collect a good set of gear. Hopefully he knows what he's doing there.

Guys can someone explain to me WTF is going on with Rising Storm?
Back when it came out, I already owned Red Orchestra 2, which had separate installs for single player and multiplayer mode. The multiplayer mode was changed into Rising Storm/Red Orchestra 2 multiplayer, but I was told I only have access to the RO2 content unless I bought Rising Storm. Now Rising Storm is on sale but I can't buy it because it says I already own it, so did they just add the Rising Storm content to my game, or am I being blocked from buying it? Don't really feel like downloading 10GB just to find out if I actually have it or not.

This has always been an issue with Rising Storm sales. Instead of 50-75% off, it gives you an extra discount for owning Red Orchestra 2. Now it's stuck at 100% off ($-0.01).

Go it working then? It's stupid that Kane & Lynch Dead Men doesn't auto-install GFWL when you first launch the game, it just fails and you have no idea why. There's no error dialogue informing you what the issue is. Just a ninja smoke bomb. Good ol' GFWL.
Had to google it, never even heard of this before.

It's a hidden gem. Same developer as the Blackwell games, too.
It's strange, I checked my library yesterday and, whilst I didn't have the Rising Storm beta, I'm pretty sure I had RO2 beta, or is it my head playing tricks?

I mean it literally does not list the game in the store for me.
But then I check the listing in my games and...
Only free weekend? So I guess I don't own it... but the sale will be over when the free weekend is over...
Cool, Tripwire. I guess they don't want my money, or I just don't get in on sales like people who didn't support them buying RO2 early on.
Franchise/publisher packs aside none of the Red Orchestra subs contain the Rising Storm DLC. You own it because of the Free Weekend (auto-grant sub). To actually purchase Rising Storm you'll need to either hope Tripwire fixes the discount compound oversight or have someone who doesn't own RO2 buy you a copy at 75% off; once the Free Weekend is over, you'll lose the DLC and then you can redeem the gift copy to tie it to your account permanently.

Whoa... I must have it.
That's kind of funny if it lists as you owning it and thus prevents you from buying during the sale.
I was a bit confused last night trying to figure things out with Red Orchestra 2. I think I had at least two betas in my library (uninstalled), and the singleplayer (uninstalled). But, I didn't have the multiplayer listed in my library until I did the install-cancel thing for the 24-hour free special. So I think I ended up with RO2 singleplayer, multiplayer, and beta, and maybe something from rising storm though I don't own rising storm or the GOTY edition or whatever.
It seems like it would be worth $5 if I can find a way to buy it. =P

So this is a WB-level DLC fuckup. Okay. I'll go buy a racing game, then.

Usually free weekends end on Sunday while the sale goes until Monday.
