Just saw this on my badge page.

Is this the first time there's been 11 cards for a holiday sale?

 

[accel]

Neocolonialism

I like the slogan on the screen for that game - "ruin everything".

 

[Kagemusha]

I think a winter sale had 13 cards. Cards are only going for 11 or 12 cents. Hope they go up to 25c later in sale. Should have waited to see what the meta game was before crafting.

 

[Atraveller]

AssUnity's story is quite short(for AC standards), and a bit underwhelming, part of it stemmed from lacking an interesting cast of characters me thinks. Ezio trilogy did so well to make me care.

 

[Shantom]

Steamworld Heist reviews are coming out. Looking good, which is awesome because I really enjoyed my time with Steamworld Dig.

Too bad it's on a delay for PC. I doubt it will come up in time for the winter sale.

I played a bit of it at EGX and loved it. Torn between waiting for PC or just getting it straight away on 3DS.

The only way they'll go up is if there is a meta game that consumes them, and we haven't had one of those in quite a while.

All previous sales has been 10 cards.

Yeah, hoping for good event that requires use of cards, so prices stay higher.

^ What the fuck am I looking at? ^

Witcher Trilogy vs. Gears of War Trilogy.

 

[Jazz573]

I just find it ironic that over the last few years the combat in the souls game went from being the hurdle that many couldn't get over to now the gold standard for RPG combat and anything that doesn't do souls combat is no good, even if it isn't trying to do that at all.

as a fan of both series, it's annoying to see people pit them
against one another. Both are competent, both fit their series rather well, and they can coexist just fine.

Hey Stump, could you do me a nice favor and make this guy a member please? He's got over 300 posts.

 

[Lomax]

I wouldn't call 75 cents "nothing" but if the past few sales are any indication, hanging onto them in hope will be a mistake. Both of the last two sales gave a card to everyone at the very beginning of the sale, which destroyed what little value they had and killed any chance of a spike back up. While something different may happen this time, it seems unlikely at best.

Good luck, PM me if a key doesn't work for you :X

That's a good question. I find it silly.

I think people saw that one guy do it and are following suit. I can't recall reserving a post ever being a thing except for when the op needed more space.

Wild Island Quest trailer make it seems like not even worth 2$.

This looks like one of two things.

1. Man or woman (can't tell) mourning over dead companion.
2. Guy getting an invisible bj

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Actually, ME3's gameplay and multiplayer were the saving grace of the whole game, especially after the clusterfuck that occurred upon release.

If you wanted more of Mass Effect, or even Mass Effect 2, you most certainly did not think the Gears of Warish gameplay and multiplayer was saving anything. It wasn't wanted, nor asked for.

I really should pick up Undertale again but right after finally replacing my ancient rig I can't resist games with more graphics

 

[crazyrabbits]

If you wanted more of Mass Effect, or even Mass Effect 2, you most certainly did not think the Gears of Warish gameplay and multiplayer was saving anything. It wasn't wanted, nor asked for.

It's the only reason why ME3 continues to have any sort of mindshare in the multiplayer marketplace. Even people who hated the game admitted that the multiplayer was surprisingly decent.

Credit where credit is due. I think 3 is the worst of the series, but even I know how well MP went over.

 

[arts&crafts]

the BTA average is $9.50 in the humble bundle... I dont see that going down ever.

i basically do it so i already made a post and feel pressured to complete it

it's dumb but has worked for me for goty stuff in past years

My 2016 anticipated titles is going to be heavily represented by indie releases. There are a lot of interesting games coming from small studios next year.

Happened in GOTY 2014 thread, like a lot.

 

[Dr Dogg]

Looking at the past 'Most hyped up so much I'm going to jizz in my pants' threads of yore most of the top contenders from the results threads got delayed until the year after.

Not saying 'don't get excited!' but looking at what peeps vote for, how said games were marketed and how they were received generally upon release, it might be best not to get your hopes up. Not that anyone is going to listen to me with my AssCreed disease.

 

[zkylon]

next year's gonna be pretty aaa for me

persona 5, dark souls, xcom2, dxhr2, disho2, overwatch, nier 2 if it's next year (no way it's next year)

the only indie game i can think of right now is ladykiller in a bind which is probably #1 in my list, and maybe tacoma. can't think of many more

also i'm excited for the inevitable second kickstarter by obsidian next year

it's gonnna be great

edit: whoa i forgot about the witness. definitely the witness

Dark Souls 3 isn't even in my top ten. All my excitement has moved to Ni-oh

I'm sadly a bit clueless about what is coming out in 2016 in the indie scene. I know Fire Watch and No Man's Sky has a ton of buzz but it seems for me that 2016 is going to be all about:

Street Figther 5
XCOM 2
Dark Souls 3
Deus Ex Mankind Divided
Dishonored 2
Mirror's Edge Catalyst

and then I still have a ton of heavy hitters from 2015 I haven't played yet like Witcher 3 or Metal Gear Solid 5
