Support NeoGAF

[Haunted]

Thanks to w1ssy for organising the Risk of Rain 4-pack! Really can't complain about that price (equivalent to a 60% discount) - GAFers are the best.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Grabbed Blade Symphony. Mainly since this steam credit is more of a curse than anything and i refuse to pay over 5 for RoR

 

[Lain]

So yeah, I hope I'm doing this right. A couple older games, but pretty cool games nonetheless .

Thank you very much for Botanicula!

 

[Silky]

So...I might be regretting my purchase of The Secret World, but hey it's whatever. Ten bucks.

 

[random]

You're welcome, enjoy the game! Seems like no one wanted Botanicula and the Showdown Effect, haha. It's a shame, since especially Botanicula is a lovely game.

I wanted Botanicula, but it looks like Modbot decided I wasn't worth it

edit: ok, it looks like Modbot was only a little slow

 

[Lunaniem]

I just noticed the only Valve games that aren't on sale is the L4D series.

Could the rumor about L4D2 going free2play be true?

Make sure to come back with impressions, the trailer makes it look interesting with all the different fighting styles... but it looks kinda early and janky (particularly the movement, reminds me of classic broken third person kb/m controls - Jedi Knight says hello).

 

[TheFightingFish]

Verdun actually looks really cool. WWI has tons of potential as a shooter, even in static trench warfare lots of interesting smaller engagements were happening. Plus bolt action rifles are sweet. But I don't really think that I'm down with buying an early access multiplayer game. I have plenty of backlog now so I don't see a reason not to wait to see if it starts to catch on before buying in after full release.

Thank you very much for Botanicula!

Enjoy!

Did you set a limit on how long ago you can have won a game, that you edited out of the quote maybe?

That sucks, I'm sorry :/... I did no such thing. The only thing I edited out was the red headline thing at the top. Maybe you don't have 5 posts in this thread yet? Since I did add the 'no lurker' rule.

 

[Dusk Golem]

I have chosen Blade Symphony and Verdun over Risk of Rain with my limited card-earned money.

are you idling for cards like a champ like me man

i turned my friends to offline to hide my shame

 

[Item Box]

As much as i'd like to play bulletstorm again, voted for E.Y.E. cause hey, why not.

 

[Tagyhag]

I voted for EYE, Bulletstorm is great too but EYE will never go lower than that, and its really a game that people should try, especially with friends.

 

[Dusk Golem]

You know it, running three to four games at a time. But I do it online and my friends are well aware I'm going after dat' card money.

[Mistah]

where can I buy that Metal Gear Rising for 12,05$ or russian or brazilian ? any gaffer wanna help me ?

 

[AcceptableGhost]

You know it, running three to four games at a time. But I do it online and my friends are well aware I'm going after dat' card money.

I have probably gotten like 10 dollars of money from cards so far from yesterday and today, Cherry Tree High was a goldmine. Although I actually want to try that out sometime...

 

[Colin.]

Less than an hour left for my little Modbot raffle.

I like taking a risk here and there, why not!

 

[Blearth]

Voted for the 90% game just because of 90%.

 

[JaseC]

Could the rumor about L4D2 going free2play be true?

It's not a rumour per se, just a possibility I floated due to the new subs having a "No Cost" billing type. But if it does go F2P, let the record reflect that I totally called it.

 

[random]

Enjoy!

You had edited a couple of the entries, so I thought you may have edited out something. I should have more than five posts in one of the threads, so I thought that something may have gone wrong.

I was mostly trying to figure out what had happened, sorry for implying that you may have made something wrong, while it was only taking a little longer.

Thank you for the chance to win a great game

 

[human onion]

Yeah I voted for EYE even though I already own it just because it is the game that I least expected to go down in price.

Anyway, how's Risk of Rain? Can I play it with randoms?

 

[OniBarubary]

Alright gentlemen, Risk of Rain won and it looks like the store messed up a little around it so it kept changing price. Right now, as I look at it is at 6.69.

Please please please don't NOT buy this game because it said it was 70 cents less than it is now. That is a silly reason to not let yourself play an incredibly amazing game. It is less than 10 dollars, it is the price of a decent sandwich. Swallow your pride and take the plunge and you will not be disappointed. I swear to you.

Hell, I'll buy someone a damn copy of the game if it's still too high for you. This is a game that deserves support and play. It is phenomenal. Do not let a mistake that wasn't even the developer's fault hurt them or you. Make the right choice.

Region locked I think.

Cherry Tree High is actually pretty good for what it is. Basically a lite version of Persona without the RPG elements, but the social linking and visual novel elements.

For me I've had a few real gold mines, one was Agarest: Generations of War. That game has five card drops, and each card when I sold them went for $0.80-$1.30, and they sold fast too.

 

[Teggy]

Anyone know why Fable 3 isn't on Steam anymore?

 

[Shurayuki]

where can I buy that Metal Gear Rising for 12,05$ or russian or brazilian ? any gaffer wanna help me ?

Nuuvem for brazilian.

Region locked I think.

Does only affect in-steam gifting.

Got a key immediately and is in my steam list. Same for other gaffers.

Still above my $5 impulse price, but I'll at least look closer and maybe grab it over it does get there thanks to this post.

I dunno i'm pretty firm on wanting it at 5. I could've caved at 6. I keep looking at it but im so cheap that extra 70 cents kills it.

 

[Lunaniem]

Seems likely for them to be doing something with those subs soon since they added a Christmas DLC app to them.

 

[LuffyZoro]

I'm thinking about RoR, but I dunno. I really enjoyed Rouge Legacy and this seems a bit like it, but 33% isn't much off.

 

[tjohn86]

Anyone have impressions of Nether or Blade Symphony to share?

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

Anyone know why Fable 3 isn't on Steam anymore?

it was recently in a sale too. Odd.

 

[Cheddahz]

Where is MGR the cheapest? Amazon still has yet to give me my trade in credit and I want to have the game pre-ordered before it is no longer on sale

 

[Dusk Golem]

Anyone have impressions of Nether or Blade Symphony to share?

>

On Nether, I made a video of it earlier today for the people who wanted some things on Nether: http://www.twitch.tv/aestheticgolem/b/488953888

On opinion, while it's in beta and still very rough around the edges, it has some good fun to be had. Fun with friends, the monsters are varied and interesting, some good exploration element, and random events are nice to have. It still has a lot of features, fixes, and the like to have implemented (the game has two bigger updates each month so far, with the last update being four days ago that added some new items, added a new enemy known as the golem, and added subway tunnels), but is fun as it is now and promising for the future. Just know if you pick it up now it is all still very janky, and while a survival type game, it is more game-y than something like Day Z (you have levels, skill points, events, etc.)

And on Blade Symphony, I just bought it, so planning to stream a bit of it and have impressions here shortly.

 

[honorless]

Bulletstorm hasn't been a featured deal since March 2012 so the right thing to do would be to vote for it.

Guess it'd be better to throw the bone that way, then. Not sure it'll win though, given how many people can't even see it!

Yeah I edited in the pictures, haha, that's all. I'm sorry you didn't win the game. I might be giving away some more stuff in the next couple of days though, so who knows!

 

[Zeliard]

You know it, running three to four games at a time.

Does that result in much slower drops? That's what I've heard.

 

[Salsa]

Does that result in much slower drops? That's what I've heard.

yes

but it makes more sense to leave a bunch running when you hit the bed since you're likely to hit the card limit with just one

 

[Mistah]

Nuuvem for brazilian.

sadly it's region locked :/

 

[VitalNerve]

So it's fairly easy to get cards? Or does it depend on the game?

 

[Dusk Golem]

More like unstable drops. I find that drops seem to be based on user activity on steam partially. But like, I'll go three hours for example without card drops, and then suddenly I'll get 3-8 card drops in a span of 10 minutes. Sometimes I will leave games on and sleep, come back, had only a few card drops, but when I start doing things suddenly I have card drops like crazy for a while.

 

[cicero]

wow. So they switched the clearly marked price for Risk of Rain and lowered the deal. There goes my purchase and a wasted vote.

 

[Kastrioti]

I'm already stuck in Limbo lol. There are two bear traps and I can't seem to jump over them.

 

[TronLight]

Completely random. Might be a minute, might be 3 hours.

Due to the Marketplace security, I'm stuck here waiting until tomorrow night before I can sell off my ~$10 worth of cards.

 

[Turfster]

Averages to about 20 minutes per card if you only run one game.
