I have a remaining budget of 27€ for the sale. Fubar.
Last purchase : garry's mod, eldritch and crusader kings 2 dlc collection. I would like to take this opportunity to say that the dlc collection represents perhaps half of the available dlc. Hey Paradox, 27€ for one fucking week ! Not cool :-S
I accept donations, even food gifts.

 

[JaseC]

A word of warning: the free copy of The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav that comes with the Contribution Edition of Blackguards is not a gift -- if you already own it, it'll just disappear into the digital ether rather than be rerouted to your inventory.

 

[Salsa]

that keyboard color and design is fucking terrible broheim

all swiftkey skins suck

 

[Rhaknar]

Don't quite have enough cash from cards to get Eldritch. Will have to get it next sale.

whats your Steam name?

 

[AbundantChoice]

So I am now away from my home desktop Windows PC and stuck on my Macbook Air (the new Haswell one; my god the battery life is amazing) for the next week due to visiting family for the holidays. Are there any Mac-compatible games that are playable with just the touchpad and/or keyboard I should be looking out for during the sale? I've already got Shadowrun, Race the Sun, Papers Please, Long Live the Queen, and Space Hulk on the MBA, but could use something new for the holiday.

 

[Anteater]

Is there a way to disable vsync in ducktales?

Are you really playing Sequence right now?
If so that just adds more to my pain of being unable to run it.

 

[Rhaknar]

Pm'd

no PM... well this is terribly anti-climatic haha

 

[tmarques]

Them trading cards money.

LOL, how's this even possible?

 

[King Gilga]

Everyone that has a minute interest, please buy Castlevania:LOS at GMG. Just like Metal Gear Rising, we need more character action games on the PC/Steam. Ninja Gaiden Black and 2 would be great to have.

Cheers for the heads up 6 pounds was the perfect price.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

That's actually a pretty fair price for it. The game has some serious potential, but I thought it was really lacking in terms of its Roguelite elements.

 

[JaseC]

LOL, how's this even possible?

It all adds up. I made something north of $120 from the ~600 cards that were sitting in my inventory, prior to the Autumn Sale.

Done.
Was waiting for a Steam sale, but I hade some credit on GMG, saved 20 cents on the probable Steam price.

For the people who created the Badge from Winter Sale, did you got anything worth selling? I guess it's more wise to sell the cards instead of crafting a badge hoping for something valuable, but because I don't know what items you can get I'm not sure what's the most profitable action. Any tips? Thanks in advance.

not really, no. I crafted 7 badges, close to lvl 8 and I got 2 untradable TF2 items, 2 xmas items that sell for something like 0.01&#8364;, 2 items that sold for about about 3&#8364; both and one item I accidental activated and even don't know what it was (><)
Got no single foil of 80 snow globes too and I spent little fortune as you can imagine.
Then again you can disregard all that as my "luck" is kinda thing of legends by now!

 

[honorless]

Alright I just searched that one Market and there's one people selling for a high price, but has to be extremely rare to be only one person selling it, correct? I was just weighting on what should be more profitable. I don't play none of the F2P games, which means I have no knowledge how cheap items get. Need to search for some to see if it's worth a chance or not.

Unless you feel like gambling and are prepared to lose or hold onto the item for quite some time, you should probably just sell. (...Or trade, or give the cards away.) The cards are going for about $0.25 each right now. This means you'd have to craft an item worth at least $2.50 to "break even". Last time I looked up the items on the market (Friday) that meant the item would need to be Rare or better for most of the games&#8212;IIRC the Warframe one was an exception.

But the community half of Steam is down for the count, so I don't know how things have changed since then.

Yep. I've been collecting cards and foils and selling them since the summer.

 

[atomsk]

I haven't been keeping track, but I've probably made 70-80, haven't added funds to my wallet in months.

 

[Rhaknar]

check your email Jables

holy smoke, that is impressive. But it took you ages just to put 600 cards on the market.
Also didn't limit of market entries per year is 200? Or don't Ausies experience this taxes problem?

 

[Salsa]

looks like I had a buck on my credit card. eldritch get

If you risk nothing you gain nothing. And that's coming from someone who has terrible luck.

After 200 you get stopped and they ask you to provide details or something, but if you're non-US then you can just go straight back to rockin' hard and sellin' cards.

 

[PandaPedinte]

That's such a cutie in your new avatar, by the way.

The girl isn't so bad either.

Everyone likes the Panda from Shirokuma Cafe <3

 

[Chairmanchuck]

The way to play without crashes is to reboot every time before you start. Then you have a good 8 hours or so. I wish I was joking.

Why? lol

I just wonder if anyone even playtested the Game.

 

[Marauder Shields]

I don't know what's going on with me. Haven't bought a single game this Steam Sale so far. And I have no real excitement for it either. I blame Dota.

 

[XPE]

I think having it so close to the last sale has taken some of the fun out of it, the prices haven't change and any games you wanted you would have got already.

 

[Rhaknar]

im an old ass man and I still get excited with Steam sales (even tho these days Im mostly buying shit for other people, its the Jasec syndrome >_>) so...

 

[Grief.exe]

Here is the problem with Dragon Age Origins and Battlefield 2. I want them on Steam, but

1. Its giving EA money.
2. I already got them for free on origin.

 

[Arthea]

After 200 you get stopped and they ask you to provide details or something, but if you're non-US then you can just go straight back to rockin' hard and sellin' cards.

But why you have fill anything in that case, Valve knows exactly what region are you residing in. That makes very little sense.

 

[XPE]

So you don't buy them

 

[Grief.exe]

So you don't buy them

That would be the conclusion.

 

[Rhaknar]

anyone needs snow globe 8? I need 2,4 or 9

 

[tmarques]

Same here, only bought games from GOG so far. Although I do regret missing Final Fantasy 7.

 

[Grief.exe]

I have 2 of #2, but I am camping and won't be back until tomorrow morning.

 

[hohoXD123]

So...you buy Bad Rats.

 

[Rhaknar]

oh well I'm sure it will drop for me soon enough, cheers Grief

Yo Jables did you fall asleep at the keyboard or something?

 

[EvilPengy]

Bad Rats is the future sheeple. Buy more bad rats

 

[Arthea]

7 Grand Steps seems like my type of the game, quirky and unusual, and it says in description it's a finished stand alone game, but I have my doubts, what exactly step one entails? Is it episodic game, or they just decided to call sequels - steps?

 

[TronLight]

oh well I'm sure it will drop for me soon enough, cheers Grief

Yo Jables did you fall asleep at the keyboard or something?

I have two 9.

 

[Rhaknar]

I have two 9.

do you need 8 Tron?

 

[derExperte]

But why you have fill anything in that case, Valve knows exactly what region are you residing in. That makes very little sense.

No they don't, I had to send them more documents because I once used a US address. And even if not the IRS asks for that stuff, it's not Valve's fault, they have to do it.

 

[TronLight]

do you need 8 Tron?

Need? Nah.
But I'll take if it you need a 9. :lol

 

[Arthea]

No they don't, I had to send them more documents because I once used a US address. And even if not the IRS asks for that stuff, it's not Valve's fault, they have to do it.

Oh OK then. I haven't reached 200 entries, so it was hypothetical question anyway.

 

[Rhaknar]

Need? Nah.
But I'll take if you need a 9. :lol

fair enough guess you can sell it. Steam name?

 

[honorless]

Sure. Somebody in this thread ended up with an Extraordinary the first time they crafted the badge.
But not everyone is into gambling, and it'd be disingenuous not to point out that the risk you'll end up with junk is pretty high.

 

[Knurek]

Nearly done with card farming, can't wait to get back to actually

Spoiler

not

playing my games.

Higurashi got greenlit ages ago, but Mangagamer has just started on their retranslation work - according to some sources, they are ~50% done with the translating the first episode (of 8), 7% done with editing for it. I guess we won't see the game on Steam in 2014 if they keep up the pace.

I just hope the will use the PS2/NDS assets, the original PC version was... seriously... terrible GFX-wise.

Seriously, compare the original

and the console assets:
