Yeah. Steam sale with the vote by crafting badge was great despite having so many repeats.
Guess Valve is spread thin with Dota 2, CS:GO, their esports, Steam Machine and that damn controller.

Me too lol, this is my first Steam sale where I'm actually buying stuff so I've found plenty to keep me interested. But I get that some people who have a lot of these older games I'm picking up already might not find it that exciting.
I just need more time in the day more than anything else.

Not sure if this has been posted or is even the place too post, but there's still a few hours left to grab almost every Tomb Raider game including the GOTY of the reboot for 16 bucks.

It's 40 on steam currently.

It's 40 on steam currently.
It was up for community vote, but did not win. So I would guess it will get a bigger discount as daily or flash deal!

I must say as well the raffle things you guys do is amazingly cool.
Like scokem on the other page giving like 50 games away. Crazy nice.

Wait really?! I tried using the 20 percent one last night when I got it and it said voucher couldn't be added!

Do you guys/girls think that Grimrock 2 will be cheaper during a sale on steam than it currently is on https://www.humblebundle.com/store/p/legendofgrimrock2_storefront for 14,29.
Steam has to put on sale for more than 35% to make it cheaper. Do you think it will be on sale for more then that or should i get it from the humble store?

I had it from a previous sale, but I tried one of the coupons just now to verify:
If the "add voucher" button is still greyed out after cutting and pasting, press enter in the text box until it is green (or delete the last letter of the coupon code and replace it again), then press enter again.

I guess maybe I had clicked add my .10 from trade ins by mistake. That's all I can think of.
What are the rules of the Steam sales again? Here:
If it is daily/communty/flash this is the cheapest it will go on Steam until january 2nd. (only Steam, could be cheaper elsewhere)
Check these price comparison websites (for against other currencies and the price history)

I know. I was just asking if you guys/girls think if steam will put it up for sale for more than 35%

:\ Yea, coupons can't be used with GMG credit. Also the coupon code box can be a little finicky, from my edit in my previous post.
Trade request sent. Enjoy your badge!

Oh sorry for being pedantic. That's a tough one, Grimrock humble sale lasts until tomorrow (for another day and 4 hours) . I think since Legend of Grimrock 2 is at 20% (steam), it will at least go for 33% daily. In £, that will make it still 40p more expensive than the Humble version. But it's more likely it will go for 50% off. It's a tough call.
I know. I was just asking if you guys/girls think if steam will put it up for sale for more than 35%
Yeah, I've had my eye on this one as well. The problem is that the Humble discount is only good for another 28 hours while the Steam sale, and potential deeper discount, is going for more than a week.
Buy it now at -35% or wait to see if it dips below -20% on Steam over the coming week. It's roughly a $4 difference in the end if nothing changes.

I think Durante had it as one of his GotY? It has middling impressions so I guess take your chance if you're interested.

It surprised me with how good it actually was, I was expecting bottom of the barrel, but it was a nice little tactical-RPG.

Dan it, sigh. From experience do games that don't win ever get the bigger discount? Can't believe it didn't win though, real bummer. Really want to have it ready as I just ordered the warthog

Haha np. I get why you did it with so many people not waiting till the dailies.
Guess i'l risk it and wait for the steam sale. If it's only 33% off its just a few extra cents i'l have to pay and i can live with that.
Yeah i know that's why i was asking, but i think we will certainly see it on the steam sale the only questing is if it will go lower than 35%. At the moment i think i will wait for the steam sale and if it's only a 33% it isn't a great loss for me and i got allot of other games to play till then

Thanks, may bite for $7.50
Just purchased it and played for like 10 minutes until I died. It's like Paranautical Activity, but far superior (and no death threats!).
Sounds promising. I loved the idea of Paranautical activity, its just the execution was....yeah.
Jeff played it on Unprofessional Friday a couple weeks back (Giantbomb). Looks really cool.

Anyhow, the game in questions seems to be a title called Racer 8. I've got no interest in it whatsoever,
Same, at least I don't mind that they kinda toned it down from last year, like with voting only once a day and no huge emphasis on crafting badges. I'm just tired of seeing the same dailies we've been seeing for the last several years that everybody should own by now, meanwhile I'm still waiting on games that got dicked in the community choices during the Summer Sale.
Also, the prices for some of these games are higher than they were in previous sales which is off putting.

Ziggurat is fun. Bit challenging too. I just made it to the last boss but died.
At least I got an achievement for dying there.
It is pretty fun but I feel it could have been so much more. Hopefully a sequel is made.
Kind of tempted on Ziggurat. Never heard of it before, but I do have fond memories of Heretic and Hexen.
That said, I'm hoping for a further price reduction on Battlemage: Lichdom, and the games seem kind of similar (except for the randomization element in Ziggurat).
Possibly because this Steam sale has been a bit underwhelming so far, I am itching to buy something!

Was it a one time thing? Maybe there is a fix on the Discussion forums under the game's section?
Uhm, I don't mean the literal translation of it, but the sound.
PayDay reads/sounds the same as "peidei", which is literally "I farted". lol
There was this contest going on on the radio, where you could win Pay Day 2, and the girl announcing it was so embarrassed saying it live. I felt bad for her.
