I hope they don't pull those "increased price" crap in xmas sale

All I will say is the prices for the Autumn and Winter Sales were submitted separately, so it's up to a dev by dev basis how much they decided to discount, or even if they wanted to discount, for both sales.

even preorder dlcs that can't be bought apart from GOTY edition (which is physical).
I bet JaseC is happy.

Also no gift copies because WB sucks.

I wonder if enough people whine about having already owned those things, they'll give away something else instead. Maybe another WB title.

The damage control is poor.

I think he meant that some devs increase their price shortly before the sale.

(Which is actually against German law (and I am sure european law too))

some devs and publishers increased their prices during the sales to offset the discount

Ahh, yes. That douche move. Well, SteamGAF at least will come together to call people out on that. We're pretty on top of spotting it if it comes to our attention.

(and now I'm speaking like we're a hive mind.)

I already had all the previous games, but I probably would have picked up a cheap copy of Arkham Knight if I knew they were giving away the DLC you couldn't buy.

But in more shocking news, I have 3 separate copies of Dragon Age Origins in my Origin library.

I have 2 completely identical copies of Peggle for some inexplicable reason.

I think it must be because Origin doesn't check/care what you already have when you redeem a code, so you probably just punched in multiple codes you got over the years thinking it wouldn't allow dupes (or not thinking about it at all since you'd expect it to work that way, like Steam).

thats really good news

Man, I just realized that Blighttown and The Great Hollow are both visible aaaaall the way from Firelink Shrine :eek:

Firelink Shrine > Majula all day erry day

Such a gorgeous place. One of my most beloved places in all of gaming.

Also got around saving Reah! Her voice actress did a magnificent job.

yea firelink is great and the details of how the world's constructed are a really big part of what makes dks1 so magical

So question, why would one be farming in the library in Duke's Archives?

Cause that is where I found my character. Its been months.


Also this game controls are janky! My controller seems fine in other games but a lot of time in DKSI I push the stick as far forward as I can and character still slow walks.

A few quick movements with the stick and hes back up to normal light jog speed.

If you like Megaman-style games def. grab Legend of Dark Witch, which is discounted for $4 Heck even if you don't and want a good looking 2D game just get it

Some people say it's hard, but that's only the bosses on account of them requiring you to memorize patterns and when to attack them. Generally stages are easy long as you're not rushing.
Also you get to fight this thing

Jojo best show

So either DS2:Deathinitive had a major difficulty adjustment or I completely missed a lot of the side content and was under leveled the first time I played the game (which is very possible). The boss I got stuck on before could barely get any health off of me this time.

Star Citizen is about $500,000 away from $100 million, making mad money yo. Still need to get around to finishing downloading the huge ass new build.

PS There's a holiday sale going on to were you can get the game for $30. It's been going in and out of stock so keep an eye out for it if interested.

I really like how the ship goes to red alert mode before it explodes. The lighting, sound, and visual effect are just beautiful.

Don't know if it's the one you're thinking of, but Avira's is good.
 
What other games on Steam are trying to be Mario Galaxy? For reals though, you make it sound like there's dozens of games on Steam that are like that.

Sonic Lost World

[insert smug anime gif here]

Not really. I mean there are some games trying to get in the artstyle in away. Or the planet toid thing.

I just started watching this show and it's pretty good.

So good it can only be made better as a Platinum Games game.

OPM game would be weird

Its a game about winning in one punch then
How would that work. This isn't like "hes strong and meets stronger!"
He ALWAYS wins in one punch.
