chivalry: released in 2012, 1 bundle (trivial unit sales), sales as low as 90% off
ftl: released in 2012, 3 bundles (~800,000 bundles total, FTL was BTA in all bundles), sales as low as 75% off
orion: can't calculate number of bundles because of name changes, but prices as low as 95% below original launch price, and it's been in a bunch of turd bundles
7 days to die: no bundles, never been more than 60% off
guns of icarus online: 6 bundles, sales as low as 85% off,not sure how many bundle sales
risk of rain: 3 bundles, price as low as 75% off (200k+ bundles?)
divinity: 0 bundles, 40% maximum discount
shadowrun returns: 75%+ sales, 2 bundles (200k? sales?)
planetary annihilation: can't figure out what's going on with this to check price or bundle data
thomas was alone: 6 bundles, 75%+ off, many hundred thousand sales from bundles

i would say in light of that, 7 days to die and divinity are both quite impressive.

Divinity OS is definitely a huge success outside of its KS.

Like i said, when RoR was in a bundle it came with 4 copies total so it was as close to free as it could get for a while. You couldn't find a taker in this thread after a while because everyone had it lol. But the rest are probably only somewhat affected by being bundled.

Don't forget that Risk of Rain came in a 4-pack bundle, there were pages of copies here that no one wanted.

middle of first mission, game is running flawlessly as can be expected

only thing i really wrestled with were the button controls trying to find that noe that fits me best

keep in mind, i unticked Screen Space Shadows and i think i turned of AA

i have the Min required card, but with 2GB, and a 2nd gen AMD A10-5700 APU


overall, from a low-to-mid end spectrum, this port is great for me. it may be 30, but it is a VERY SMOOTH 30 for me, and thats fine by me.

we shall see what heavy load does though, as i haven't reached one of those yet

Why is Nuuvem giving Relic Hunters keys if it's already free on Steam? Is it something different?
Click to expand...
I think you get a +1 by activating through a key, no? No idea why they'd offer keys, maybe just a promotion thing (I didn't know it was free on steam until after I activated the key :p).

Yeah, it's a +1. Just remove the free license if you got it via steam store before, and then activate the key.

and they patched the PC version to make it easier.

the last level of JSRF and Psychonauts are almost the same level of frustrations in my head. just tarnishing a great experience
Click to expand...

I recently replayed Psychonauts when they added Steam achievements, and honestly Meat Circus wasn't even all that hard in the earlier version in the game before they made it easier. Sure, it's a bit of a difficulty spike, but the rest of the game barely has any platforming challenge at all.

Since when do they release the weekend deal on Thursday?
Click to expand...

Today is Tuesday you know... but they release them on Thursdays all the time.

The page for the games says Midweek Madness, so I guess they just labelled the part on the front page incorrectly.

you sure? pretty sure today's the day you and your bullies were driven back with pitchforks, the day in which my father saved his village at the cost of his own life and you had him shot as he ran away, a hero at a thousand paces

How on earth is Zombi, a game that was 6.8gigglybites on WiiU, ballooned to just over 21 when brought over to PC? Oh yeah I bought Zombi because that's what happens when you go down the pub to watch the footy and don't get served for 20 mins.

By the way, how was Hotline Miami 2? It seems to have been discussed a lot less than 1, in my experience.

I feel it is most likely because it isn't 'original' anymore.

A lot harder, story a lot more jumbled and tryhard in a way

I really enjoyed it, but a lot of people felt the difficulty was unfair and cheap at points

pretty mixed as far as reception goes so I guess it's on a "try it" basis

biggest complaint i'd agree with is the much, much bigger reliance on guns

So, people that buy TYPE-0 from GMG got their DOTA item?
Click to expand...

The Dota 2 items will be sent "soon" (people on the Steam forums are saying Thursday)

if your account shows the Type-0 license as "Pre Purchase" then you'll get the items and if it doesn't then you won't (again, that's from the Steam forums)

Shocking stuff that. At least you got to see Memphis turn on the class.
