I'll still hold off, just in case. But what do people think the chances are of Enslaved getting a further discount?

 

[Barzul]

I've bought surprisingly little this sale.

 

[Derrick01]

Damn Enemy Within is 7.3gb. Now that's an expansion.

 

[MrKaepora]

Is this the proper place to ask about trading card trades? I'm in need of 3, 5, and 6. I have 1 and 2 to trade.

For some reason, GTA III and San Andreas are listed twice in my library.

These two games are the reason why I made the rule to never buy games simply because they are cheap, but only on pure interest alone.

I think the Mac versions show up as separate titles.

 

[feel]

I probably wouldn't play it even if someone gifted it to me. I asked my nephew if he'd ever played it and he just laughed and said "I don't think I can consider dying over and over again as playing"

Turned me off pretty quick.

Your nephew probably doesn't mind that in Call Of Duty multiplayer.

But yeah jokes aside that's a ridiculous thing to say about Dark Souls, it's not really hard, it just punishes the reckless and impatient.

 

[Alo81]

You and me both.




Thanks a lot for the fast answers. It's a bit disheartening, the trailers looked incredibly fun.

You should try the resolution trick I mentioned.

The game is a total blast, super fun. I had friends over on Thanksgiving and we played 4 player Trials and when I got the framerate right things were running smoothly and we all had a hell of a time.

 

[afternoon delight]

Congrats, enjoy this incredible game.

I'm hoping it's going to scratch that "MGS3 on Hardest Difficulty" itch that's hard to satisfy.

Voted for Spelunky. :3

It is. Trials 1+2 are GREAT games it's a shame (though not entirely unexpected) that Ubisoft shithoused the port.

Damn Enemy Within is 7.3gb. Now that's an expansion.

Is it mandatory? I hate when devs mandate that I need to download all expansions for a game. Downloading 25GB of crap when I only need 10 is pretty frustrating on my 1.5MB/s connection. I can only imagine how infuriating it is for people with download caps!

Ah, didn't know that. Thanks.

Gotta convince people to try out Uplay...by forcing it onto poor ports.

The Enemy Within expansion integrates directly into the main campaign I believe, so there would be no reason not to get it. It expands upon the games normal mechanics and adds right into the main experience.

 

[Martian]

If you buy The Elder Scrolls Skyrim Legendary edition, do you get individual keys?

I have Skyrim, Dawnguard and Hearthfire, but I just want Dragonborn. Unfortunately Dragonborn is almost as expensive as the entire Legendary edition, and I would like to gift the rest (if possible)

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

I am back to 100% on Rogue Legacy and I can say that I sincerely hope it stays that way.

The new remix bosses are some of the worst designed "challenge" bosses this side of an Osaka Team Kingdom Hearts title.

Good job, I don't see myself trying enough to beat any of them, maybe the bullethell one.

Only if you get the expansion, and mainly the size comes from the fact they included higher res version of the cutscenes with it.

I'm actually going to try it right now! I'm assuming you need to be in windowed mode when you change to a higher res than your native, correct?

 

[Spring-Loaded]

All this apprehension over buying Dark Souls... that's like the safest bet of all

 

[dani_dc]

The feel of having nearly everything you want.

I have over 700 games and a wishlist of 40+ games and that's while trying to cut it down to only the games that interst me.

What is wrong with me.

 

[rainking187]

You've got to be kidding me, I bought the second Penny Arcade game when it was $3.59 because it never goes on sale, and now it's in another Humble Bundle in the $1 tier? Fuck.

 

[Fatal Futanari]

Alright guys, guess I'll announce it here, I assure this is not for my profit :

So 6 months ago I began trading here, me and a trader known as rash formed a team, he sold the games I did the distribution, I put on a 4% over fee on the majority of the games we sold to make some sort of $. This works great for us, we did over 4000$ in revenue ( Not idea what his margins are ), me making a modest 310$ ( Screw You Assassins Creed 4 )

Over the course of the period I noticed the reason 90% of users were buying from me was they were scared of traders and wanted security within comfortable means. They knew i was not the one in Russia yet felt better
having someone from here get them their games.

With this knowledge I am starting a new system, this is rash's price checking site

http://rash.zz.mu/

This is my paypal email : maneil99@live.ca
I am no longer making any profit, all I ask is to send 3-4 cents more to cover fees.

I am also introducing a tip jar none of this goes to ME or RASH. But rather YOU

Say you buy the walking dead season 2 for 16$ instead of 25, maybe you want to do a giveaway but can't, well by donating 1$ to the tip jar you can help be a part of that. Once enough money is in the tip jar I will purchase a game from Steam and give it away here on steam gaf. This way everyone can contribute to giveaways even if they can not afford to pay.
If you want a game email me the hyperlink ( Red text on the site, pm me and attach a note to the PP )

Again I am doing this as honestly as I can, I want to help not make money and I feel like this is a great idea, none of the risk yet still a discount. You can deal with rash yourself, I call him the grumpy russian just mention my name if you can

Let me know if this is a good idea or not and if this posts belongs here, i think its relevant

Ah rash. I've done alot of business with the guy before. Good guy!

How were you able to sell Day Z for so low before while rash has it priced for $34?

only thing about dark souls i don't like is that it's almost too good.

Is Deadpool worth $7.99?

 

[Head of Vengarl]

coop
pvp
messages written by players which you can read (with a rough thumbs up/down system)
covenants (see a wiki, it's kinda complicated and i don't think i got it)
people who just died leave bloodstains, if you touch it you can see their last seconds
other visual/audio stuff (it's very subtle and doesn't add to the game)

A lot of the online stuff is flavor.

Users can leave messages on the ground that are little hints to guide you through. Stuff like "Amazing Chest Head" "Try Rear" and "Try Jumping".

When people die, they sometimes leave bloodstains. You can touch their bloodstain and it shows you how they died.

When you're walking around you may see a translucent phantom which is another player who's in the same area as you. You don't interact, it just lets you know someone, somewhere, is right where you are right now too.

If someone in their game beats one of the bosses and rings a bell, you can hear a bell start ringing in your game.

If someone upgrades the same bonfire you're at, you might get an extra health potion (estus flask.)

There's a bunch of stuff like that.

But on top of that is the actual online PVP and co-op.

You can summon people into your world to help you fight bosses and enemies, and if you make yourself eligible to summon others (you do this by turning human) then you also make yourself eligible to be invaded by others.

This is other people playing them game invading your world and trying their hardest to get to you and kill you.

The online is a really cool part of the game, but it's not required or essential.

Thank you both for the explanation.

I'm late on this one, but just saw it. TOWER WARS? wtf is wrong with you people?

I'm actually going to try it right now! I'm assuming you need to be in windowed mode when you change to a higher res than your native, correct?

Nope, you specifically DON'T want windowed mode. You want fullscreen. It should scale the game down to fit your screen.

The reason you do it is it basically forces SSAA (Super Sampled Anti Aliasing) which cleans up the jaggies on edges, and it has the nice side benefit of somehow fixing the game to run at 60fps.

If you have troubles getting it to work correctly, Corky made an awesome tutorial on adding custom resolutions to your monitor or TV.

"Framerate is insufficent for online play. Returning to Main Menu."

oh pls

What game's that?

 

[GuardianE]

Is Deadpool worth $7.99?

Where is it $7.99? I'd say it is, if you're a fan of current Deadpool. If it's to your taste, it's a pretty funny game.

 

[gilljoy]

No War for the overworld this makes me sad

 

[antitrop]

Is Deadpool worth $7.99?

It's okay. It's kind of worth that, if you're pretty desperate for something to play.

 

[freakk5]

I want to change my vote to Monacooooooo nooooooooooo!

 

[AHA-Lambda]

What game's that?

Dark Souls

Brutal game

 

[Lautaro]

Those who pre-ordered BF4 + Premium were literally crying.

Literally literally or figurative- ah fuck it.

Yeah, trust can be lost (it happened to me with Bioware) so I think preordering could be a dying practice (it's probably for the best).

If you can enjoy an early access game, good for you but is not for everyone.

 

[RS4-]

Did I miss anything important? I've been at the hospital for the past few hours lol.

Vote Spelunky!

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Monaco was already a daily. Give it to Spelunky.

So I bought DmC. I know it isn't as good as previous entries but for $12 it can't be awful.

 

[Barzul]

The Orange Box will go on sale right? right? Still don't own Hl2.

 

[Thorgal]

Enjoy.

Thanks for Europa Universalis 3 Complete .


Now lets see if i am as lucky with that fable one .

Caved in and bought Skyrim Legendary Edition.... Even though I have tha basegame and hearthfire since before.

I am thoroughly enjoying Early Access DayZ, plenty of people have asked me whether they should buy it and I always tell them to wait.

It is a great base for them to iterate content, and it is, actually, very stable, but the game is very bare bones at the moment.
