Everyone should buy the Stanley Parable, a truly phenomenal experience!

If its narration and design are anything like the Raphael Parable video, I think I'm in. Just watched it... that was great.

 

[c0Zm1c]

I hope Typing of the Dead comes back up in a flash/daily. I knew I should have bought it before.

 

[Kadin]

10 hours in Cook, Serve, Delicious
4 hours in Hotline Miami
3 hours in Long Live The Queen
3 hours in Binding Of Issac
3 hours in L4D2
2 hours in Don't Starve

Being on break has its benefit, that i can actually play most of the games i'm buying.

I find it really awesome and appropriate that Cook, Serve, Delicious is at the top of that chart. I haven't put in nearly that much time but I know I will from what I saw early on...

I got CSD on my iPad and it seems better suited for hitting the ingredients on time.

 

[Ingueferroque]

Accidentally bought Wizardry 8 separately.. Oh well.

 

[zkylon]

In the past I manually kept track of the F2P games I'd bought DLC for, but despite Valve finally implementing a change earlier in the year that made F2P games bind themselves to your library in such cases, they're still not factored into your actual game count; something I think should also be changed, especially considering Valve fixed the bug that saw F2P games add to your game count if you'd played them.

I don't think f2p games adding to your game count is so bad if you've played them :I

then again I ain't no collector

 

[Danj]

How come tons of people bought Long Live The Queen but hardly anybody's posting in its GAF thread?

 

[Kadin]

Yeah from what I played so far, I see that it will become necessary to use the keyboard shortcuts. Trying to do stuff like the soda machine and even taking out the trace is a tad too time consuming with the mouse.

 

[Rhaknar]

We buy games, we don't play games

 

[Skab]

Oh please. Nobody plays the things they buy during a Steam sale.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Ranks up there with some of the better AWESOME REVIEWS.

I do a mix of keyboard and mouse, and i'm doing pretty well, all things considered.

What game is that for?

 

[Vibranium]

Should I wait to sell a foil Snow Globe card? I'm just wondering if prices will rise somewhat on the Market right before the cards disappear.

 

[denx]

I have a goal to not have Bad Rats in my first 1000 games on steam.

May I suggest this instead?

 

[Xanathus]

Prices will crash right before they disappear, it doesn't make any sense for them to go up. It's a buyer's market.

 

[Milamber]

But it is actually good. This however...

 

[Rhaknar]

Yeah wouldn't prices be lower near the end because people are desperate to get rid of them before they disappear?

 

[Jintor]

Brothers did not melt my heart of stone. If anything it hardened it into a flint-like exterior. What the fuck was that.

 

[joe2187]

So what is everyone voting for?


I voted for remember me because I never heard of the other two games.

 

[Gvaz]

Is that Big Bird?

It's a shark

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

What game is that for?

Double Fine's Massive Chalice Agarest.

Spoiler

No, but seriously: compare both plots of both games.

 

[JaseC]

I don't think f2p games adding to your game count is so bad if you've played them :I

Me neither, but Valve's stance is that they shouldn't be factored into it at all, which, again, is something that should be changed now that they're bound to your library (not account per se) if you own DLC.

 

[Xanathus]

I groaned and rolled my eyes at the ending, saw it coming from the very start of the game

Spoiler

when I saw the kid at the gravestone

. It's a good game but it's way overhyped.

 

[JaseC]

But it is actually good. This however...

I decided the other week that Barbie is going to be my 3000th game. I'll have to remember to pick it up as a gift the next time it's on sale.

 

[HalfwayOrb]

i remma having a blast with wizardry 8, so it's fuckin bought.

 

[Link Man]

What game is that for?

I'd have to guess Agarest: Generations of War.

 

[Gvaz]

There's a foil snow card? goddamnit

 

[_hekk05]

Double Fine's Massive Chalice Agarest.

Spoiler

I call Agarest the waifu sim. I've got a friend who plays it and he gets shit from us regularly.

It looks god damn gorgeous and I thought the primary mechanic was really interesting, but it was completely unexplored out of devotion to its story which I simply couldn't give two shits about.

 

[Turfster]

Prices are only going down.

 

[Jintor]

Hate Plus needs to go on more of a sale!

...who am I kidding, I'll buy it at end of sale anyway :T

 

[Vibranium]

Prices are only going down.

Ok, I'll sell right now. Thanks!

 

[bonesquad]

Sigh. I had to read that before the spoiler tag was added... Thanks.

 

[Jintor]

So much for Valve's attempt to stimulate the online economy.

are you kidding? 30% cut on every sale, they're literally making money out of nothing

 

[Timedog]

I'm at 299 games. I'm limiting myself to only one more new game. What should I get/wait for?

 

[Turfster]

Sigh. I had to read that before the spoiler tag was added... Thanks.

Read what? The heartless robot comments on Brothers?
Don't worry, the greatness of Brothers is in experiencing the journey, not in maybe sort of knowing something about the destination based on a comment by someone with no heart.

 

[Wookieomg]

Are you asking me out?

If by that you mean

Spoiler

DEMOLISH AND FUCKING SLAUGHTER ALIEN AGGRESSORS WITH OUR EPIC WEAPONRY AND SKILL

, then sure, why not.

 

[Sianos]

I'm at 299 games. I'm limiting myself to only one more new game. What should I get/wait for?

Wait for Bad Rats 2.

I liked Gone Home! Explain that away!

 

[Vibranium]

Heh, I know that, I didn't make much sense there. I mean, "keeping card values consistently up during a sale". But yeah, it's insanely profitable for them.

I just want card values to not crash.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

are you kidding? 30% cut on every sale, they're literally making money out of nothing

Yeah, Steam is Don Draper.

 

[HalfwayOrb]

now im broken.
bought:
wizardry 8
the incredible adventures of van helsing
the king of fighters xiii
castlevania lords of shadow ue
battlefield 2 complete collection
solar 2
deus ex invisible war
xcom enemy within (gifted)
eye divine cybermancy (gifted)
crysis maxmum edition

not bad.
my steam wallet might be bigger for the next big steam sales.

 

[oipic]

For those tempted by Castlevania: Lords of Shadow this holiday season, please note that it's back on sale at Nuuvem for ~US$7.50 (which I think is still the lowest it has been available for).

I'll definitely be picking it up one of these days - maybe the next sale, perhaps.

 

[Xanathus]

Sigh. I had to read that before the spoiler tag was added... Thanks.

That scene is literally the first thing you see in the game, and if you can piece together what's being spoiled from just that text then you would already have figured out the ending when you see that scene for yourself. You shouldn't play Brothers for the story and ending but for the journey and gameplay.

 

[Mutagenic]

I'll ask real quick before I go to bed and miss the flash sale: is Broken Sword 5 good for fans of the original?

 

[Turfster]

I liked Gone Home! Explain that away!

Well you're not the one that added a spoiler tag to his comment, so you have at least half a heart!

Spoiler

Unless you really didn't feel anything at THAT moment when the realization hit you

Also, Gone Home was golden, so... of course you liked it!

I just want card values to not crash.

That would entail educating the unwashed masses that just want to get their cents NOW NOW NOW so they can go buy their next crack rock and just want to be first to sell.

Only one moment where I genuinely felt connected:

Spoiler

Realising the brother trigger still worked when swimming home. Smart.

Apart from that though every bit of that game felt emotionally cloying.

 

[Turfster]

.

Like I said, you still have at least part of a heart

 

[Link Man]

Wonder if Castlevania will be a daily on Tuesday or Wednesday. Kind of odd that it has only gotten a Flash sale so far.

(Sad that I missed the sale at GMG.)

Just missed that post, apparently. Thanks for the heads up!
