Eh, woulda paid the same price anyway I suppose. It is a great soundtrack after all, so I can't be too bummed out.

Nevermind, it stopped locking up, I think it happened because I was locking on things that were out of bounds. Finished it, The Fall is a really cool point and click game. Worth the five buckaroos.

They were talking like there wouldn't be any discounts some hours ago, it's in Shovel Knight's discussion forums. Still, that doesn't mean that they did it in purpose, I think that they saw a lot of people asking for a discount and wanted to give them a late Christmas gift.

I'll vote for Invisible Inc when the voting returns because it looks fun. I'm not one to be petty about Invisible Inc not having cards or anything like that.
Alright, voted!;P

Still nothing for me! But still, the Steam sale-that-causes-games-to-be-cheaper-on-other-sites-sales have been really good on me: This War Of Mine, South Park and Alien Isolation , two of which were my top wants
edit: the vote is up

Nidhogg looks nice. Reminds me of the original Prince of Persia.
I did wonder the same thing when I went looking at the storepage.

You're all going on the list.

Hmm, is there much point to Audiosurf 2? It seems to be just the same game again, pretty redundant for a game of its type.

Workshop support, last.fm support, all sorts of things were being added if I recall correctly.
The Long Dark
yay or nay? It looks interesting, but am not sure if I want to throw 10 euro at it to only find out it is not my thing and I wasted 10 euro on it. Anyone here who has played it and liked it? Or didnt like it?
edit: it looks somewhat similar to Don't Starve, which I did not like. Guess I will skip it. Maybe.

Not surprised that CK2 latest DLCs are not on sale, but I want Charlemagne and Way of Life so bad.

Hmm... Put in spotify support and I'll buy it at a high price.

Klei certainly knows how to exploit EA for profit... :3
Hopefully the game turns out okay, regardless of my thoughts regarding Klei and their decisions.

Sakura Spirit cards are fueling my purchases. Thank you gems and leftover sale BGs and emoticons!
What are your concerns with them? I loved mark of the ninja but could not get into their survival game (totally drawing a blank on the name). Is it early access issues that bug you?

The Playstation versions (PS3, 4, Vita) of Don't Starve have trophies, but the Steam version of the game doesn't have achievements. That's the root of the issue.

man, i always get emotional when practically strangers do good deeds to me ;_;
there are really some good guys out there.
thank you dolor.
let's see what deals are up.
also, a bit ot but yesterday windows just stopped giving any audio out whether speakers or headphones on my laptop. i deleted and reinstalled audio drivers (realtek) but no dice.
i started ubuntu from a pendrive and sound works there.
would save me a ton of time doing backup etc. reinstalling windows. pl halp guys!

It's pretty good right now. Then again I'm a sucker for turn based games, especially ones involving stealth mechanics.
<- Klei sucker
Except for Don't Starve. Not my cup of tea.
Nice to see Super Time Force win, pretty fun game. Considered getting Shovel Knight but I can wait, so next time.
On the actually playing front, I beat TWD S2 and I'm going to start Killer is Dead now. Bought both in this sale.
I did the 60 FPS fix in the config file and thought that was that, but while looking at the article on PC Gaming Wiki I discovered there's another file I need to change so a QTE called
works properly at a higher framerate. No idea what that is for now but I changed it too. 
Hopefully that's not a substantial spoiler, but I'd rather be spoiled than have the QTE moment happen with wonky timing.
Shame I can't get borderless windowed mode working with this one, but no biggie.

I just played it a short while but I plan to return to it, because it really seems good. It's survival in that real world kind of way, like I died while I slept in a abandoned powerplant and got attack by a pack of wolves, I survived the attack but was so hurt that i bled to death, in the dark and in the cold.
Yep, I tried BorderlessGaming and Fullscreenizer and neither worked to remove the borders.
Killer is Dead doesn't have a native windowed mode and it has to be forced through the Steam library with "Properties > Set Launch Options > -windowed", so I guess that has something to do with it.
Nope. Generally you're going to have to hold on to it at least a few months before it goes up in price significantly, assuming it doesn't come back like WD:SI did.
Family Guy was incredibly cheap during the fall sale as well so there's quite a few copies floating out there.
It seems to me that there are quite a few games that want to kill the player through exposure, starvation, etc.
However, the scenarios are always so bleak. Is there one where you can actually do well enough to triumph, build yourself a home and live like the king of the wilds?

Terraria, if you're including 2D games. You start out with nothing and you can die so easily to the wilderness, but you can eventually build yourself and your base up so that you pretty much become the top dog of the wilds.

Unfortunately it probably won't since Audiosurf is a bigger name. Also slightly cheaper.
