Haha, these steam awards. I wanted to vote Undertale and Stardew Valley for like, multiple categories. I pick the most appropriate ones (e.g. farm animal for Stardew).
Oh right, I forgot all about that game. Yeah you're probably right on that one. Can't fight against the memes after all.

I put Stardew there as well, but I'm almost certain Goat Simulator will win that one.
Such is the sad tale of Steam.

You got served Orange
something to note with Elder Scrolls Online btw, concerning normal vs gold edition, obviously the Gold edition comes with the dlc (well, 4 of the 5 available), with each being a new piece of storyline involving the dark brotherhood or thieves guild or what have you.
but you also need the dlc to do the corrosponding dungeon(s) from each, which for a mmo, even one that tilts more to the rpg side of the balance, is probably still important.
Ive actually been running all the dungeons and they are surprisingly good, especially the II versions (same setup as the normal dungeon but with different bosses and sometimes different paths, its not exactly like a heroic dungeon in wow for example because those also exist here), so for example you will have The Banished Cells I which is fairly simple and most of it is tank and spank, and you will have The Banished Cells II, with new bosses that actually have complicated mechanics and you actually have to follow tactics.
so yeah, keep that in mind regarding DLC (for example I have 2 dungeons I cant access even with Gold because I dont have the latest DLC)
edit: wait maybe thats a big fat lie, on this dungeon guide it only lists 2 being locked behind dlc (the 2 I have locked) so I guess the other 4 dlcs didnt have dungeons?

What was the trick to let idlemaster drop cards after the first wave? I closed/reopened steam and idlemaster, re-logged in , but it doesn't work anymore.

Does buying Skyrim + the add-on make me available to get the remaster version?

Got Rainbow 6 Siege Gold. Gonna try to make that the only purchase.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
And to continue the shill, for people that aren't interested in the multiplayer mechanics:
Some of the DLC adds new skill trees that are only accessible if you have the DLC. For example, there is a "guild" skill tree for the Thieve's Guild, and there is also a Ledgermain skill tree that is unlocked as part of the Thieve's Guild storyline. These are (in my opinion) both great, as it lets you unlock passive bonuses such as the ability to pickpocket better, or for your bounty to go down faster. The Dark Brotherhood DLC gives you an active skill that lets you sneak up on people and instant KO them which is extremely handy. It also has a passive skill tree to help you kill folks better.
And in addition to the story content each of these provides, there are repeatable quests that can be done daily for extra gold / items / glory /etc. The DLC is definitely worth getting.
yes, most quests are above the usual mmo-fare, and some are actually really strong, mainly the main ones (both main story, and main zone ones).
dungeons are easy to get into tho, they arent very long, and even tho there is a trinity, its a bit more loose than something like wow

Because every other annual award is implying this?
2016 Steam Awards. If the date is completely irrelevant, don't mention the date whatsoever.

Thanks. I'm mostly just tired of loot treadmill in general, which is most of what dungeons are for I assume. But I still like exploring cool worlds and getting into some lore, so I'll go with that instead.

20XX didn't hit the sale I wanted.
Should I just call it and sleep until this whole holiday weekend is over?

Don't wait - the gold version is easily worth the extra $20. Most of us were crazy enough to buy each of the DLC for $20 each.
Controller support is really good - there is a setting in the game's options that, when enabled, will revamp the entire interface to the console version's.

Yeah. That is what I was asking too.
So before you could get both games when you own full Skyrim. Now you have to buy either the old game or the Remastered? If so, they should have removed the old game and only keep the Remastered Edition.
I keep adding 25 items from my wishlist and trying to checkout, and keep getting Working... or too busy. I've had to readd everything to my cart 2x now.
Anyone else having problems?
(doing this in the plain steam client, no addon/browser)
Late reply, but when I randomly encounter this (in web and client) I have to reduce the number of items in my cart and then it works. Multiple bundles in the cart can seem to cause this issue as well when there is already a high number of items in your cart. I just end up splitting the cart into multiple orders and it works.
Good value and great investment. Have fun!
The original release is still available as it is enduringly popular due to its massive mod community and the vast majority of them need to be tweaked for the Special Edition. Bethesda did exactly what you propose with Doom 3 when the BFG Edition released and ultimately backtracked due to complaints (the BFG Edition is incompatible with most if not all Doom 3 mods as it's laced with id Tech 5 technology).
Was this a time limited offer? Costs 17,99$ for me.
It was $10 when I posted it- the PC and Xbox versions seem to have jumped up to $18. It's been on sale for a day or two already.

Exploring, sure. Story, not really. I've been playing for an hour or four (according to most that's nothing yet), but all I've done are fetch quests so far. Mind you, this is the MAIN story. I'm not gonna touch the side quests at all, which I'd imagine are even more fetch quest-ish.
Should be. It's also $10 on indiegala (comes with Call of Juarez) https://www.indiegala.com/store/product/335300
Yes.
Apparently it was pulled off on January of this year due to legal problems. You can't even vote for it if it's on your library since you need the store page.
So was I, but I think a publisher dispute was the cause of it coming down from Steam
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/icepicklodge#announcements/detail/89307907203453161
I really want to play it, since I enjoyed the free weekened. But I'm not sure what the main quest is. That's about the only reason I want to play it: Go through and do the main quest while having MMO-esque many people running around me.
