I hate when I discover a game on Steam that I get instantly interested in, only to see that it was in a $1 bundle some weeks ago and now it's €12 on Steam.

In this case: A Settlers/Anno-like game called Hearthsland

Oh well.

strictly speaking it wasn't in a bundle, because greenlight bundles is a gamble, when you buy it, you (and devs) don't know if a game ever will hit steam.

Spoiler

I bought a bundle for it, gamble worked, still not playing until it leaves EA (><)

I'd rather play Anno.

I somehow didn't see you playing it, just telling

Tried creating a Nuuvem account, but it's been "validating" ny name and e-mail for like half an hour without any results. :/

I guess it's just seeing that they were willing to practically give it away in a bundle before getting on Steam makes me much less inclined to buy it before it inevitably shows up in a bundle again.

The devaluation of indie games continues.

Didn't see this mentioned:

Retro Rampage revenue breakdown + developer's thoughts

In RCR's case, GOG accounts for 6.7% of its PC sales, with Steam being 80.5%.

 

[Dr.Acula]

So what's everyone's #1 "no matter what I'm gonna buy this" game for this sale?

I think Transistor.

Region locking is Bad bad bad news

seems like whenever consumers win, the companies find ways to stop it, and of course this will make PC games more expensive as publishers get greedy, probably means piracy will increase as well

a lot of key sellers went out of business instantly

 

[Milamber]

When it comes to economy/city builders, Anno is by far the best. I just don't have the time to play it with the other games taking my time. But if I had time and HearthLand and Anno... Anno wins hands down.

Evil Within sure is a shit port.

Fuck yes, Little Witch Romanesque...
WTF, did not expect Littlewitch games to reach Steam, like ever...
Maybe they will also bring All Ages version of Quartett! now? Or even Period?

 

[WinterDemons]

Come on man! You look so ready here.

Haha, truly hope there are some good sales tomorrow. I'll be out for most of the day though.

 

[bobnowhere]

So what's everyone's #1 "no matter what I'm gonna buy this" game for this sale?

Probably Alien Isolation or maybe Endless Legend or maybe Sunless Sea or maybe Satellite Reign or maybe...

Well I've given up trying to get my DS3 to work under my new Windows 8.1 setup. Motionjoy is corrupted in a strange way, I think it's a IE issue, the xinput wrapper doesn't work at all, so I've had to dig out my old wired 360 cheapo controller with the dodgy left shoulder button.

 

[Enco]

Is the christmas sale starting today?

 

[Ban Puncher]

Sale starts in less than 12 hours and SteamGAF gets let back into general population for the accompanying thread.

Thanks. I'm afraid that's not working for me, though. Not yet anyway. I'll try again later today.

 

[JaseC]

I'd say that's by design as having your account and display name be the same thing is a terrible idea.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

I have been sniped twice on the same game tonight. I must stay up to win this now. It's a matter of honor.

 

[Card Boy]

Some decent Nuuvem deals.

• 3 Batman games for $5.50 (Akham City, Akham Origns and Akham Origins Blackgate)
• MGS: GZ - $9.20
• Shadow Warrior - $2.52
• Crysis Trilogy - $9.20 (Origin)
• Dragon Age 2 - $3.50 (Origin)
• Euro Truck Simulator 2 - $1.80

They have 500 games on sale.

 

[Fare Godmace]

I'll be missing the start of the sale, first time since I've been active on Steam GAF :/

Oh well, enjoy the price glitches guys! Hopefully I'll be checking out the Samsung Gear VR... Can't wait

 

[tioslash]

Oh nice, it only takes 6.4 hours to get all the card drops in Crimsonland.

I think the longest I had was something like 4 hours it took for me to drop all Mark of the Ninja´s cards.

On another note, I just gained 100xp on my steam profile for doing...nothing? Weird.

I just skimmed trough all, and I must say they had better black friday deals, two of those I missed then, because their timer lied are now priced higher, bummer. All in all nothing extraordinary this time.

you know every little obscure game, haven't you?

Spoiler

I'm impressed

 

[Knurek]

Every single game released on PC should have either an ingame option or a fanmod to swap X360 button prompts to the wildly superior PS ones.
I mean, seriously, fuck XABY, give me &#916; O X &#9633;

Just the eroges, especially those that had PS2/PSP ports.

Littlewitch games have really amazing artwork and music, and it's good to know the Steam version won't have the terrible sex scenes

I was literally just playing it and have to say that your enthusiasm for it is justified. Try sites like SteamTrades for bundle keys, there's bound to be copies available with the bundle it was in being so recent.

Tanned girl with twintails sure looks intersting.

 

[Skyzard]

Say you traded a game through the steam trade system from a user in a different region, and activated it.

If they don't mention specifically that this title can only be played in Russia in the description but then they later set a lock to only play that title elsewhere, that seems kinda bullshit.

What happens, you're screwed?


Pretty worried about my Dyling Light copy again as it says RU+CIS in the title after activating it (a couple of months back).

 

[L.O.R.D]

what happened to SE surprise bundle ?

also , why the fuck can some one ruin Tetris ?

 

[Arthea]

we are getting our SE surprise boxes today, just a reminder for all concerned.

OYAAAAARIIIII!!! Inst-bought!

Man, My Japanese games trading cards are selling like hotcakes. That's $5 made now.

 

[Chariot]

Ubi doesn't even has feet left by now. I am also not sure about any other limbs.

I hope I don't own all the games already >.<

FFXIII pleaseeeeee

Who needs limbs when you have JaseC?

Brofist!

Or is that jizzfist with you?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Download FlyVPN Lite ("portable" executable as opposed to an installer) -> connect to one of the two free servers -> connect to Brazil -> go to Nuuvem -> disable the VPN once you reach the PayPal window.

Ok, I've never used Nuuvem before:

1) I won't get into any bother from Valve right?

2) Do I need to declare a shipping/billing address, if so what?

3) Won't my bank stop the transaction as they see my card being used in Brazil?

4) This will work with Ground Zeroes yeah, it won't be region locked?

 

[Milamber]

That's a pretty good sale for Dragon Age 2. You can't get it on Steam can you?

Ubisoft makes THQ look competent.

 

[abracadaver]

Can't wait for the sale. Not even 8 hours to go. Added 50€ to my account in preparation but I'm willing to spend more.

Good call. I forgot about checking SteamTrades and it looks like it's available for less than a key from several traders. Thank you.

I'm glad that the game is worth being enthusiastic about, since I can't get enough of city management games.

 

[Atraveller]

At least Ubi is great at making money.

That's a good price for GZ but I'm almost certain my rig couldn't take it...

No problems, it's authorized reseller.
I yet to use VPN for buying there, not all games need this, you can and should provide real info, as I said most games aren't region specific, at least all I bought weren't. Why would your bank do so? I don't understand this question, to be honest.

edited: forgot most important thing, if a game is region locked, Nuuvem won't let you to buy it. They sometimes "lie" about it, but no worries, you will not be allowed to buy it, if you can't redeem or play it (it doesn't apply if you choose to use VPN of course).
