Yeah I'm in agreement. It just feels so subdued compared to years past.

Saw the raffle, but don't post much in the Steam thread. Oh well, it's probably a trap anyways. 
Do it. All of that for less than the price of a broken Unity at launch.

Probably bad rats, it's always bad rats.
Directors Cut is best for seeing the starting point of the series. Theres no uplay as well.
I bought it because I played bits and pieces of AC 1 and it seemed alright. Heard the pc port was good (a time when ubi gave a shit).

I thought you would be able to play if you was able to start up the game at least once before the servers shut down so GFWL could create a valid profile :/
I bought AC:Brotherhood and MGRR. I can't remember my Uplay login and it refuses to send me a new password. You have to love Ubi.
If you're just buying for the collection, I'd wait on everything still at $30 base price or more, it's clear over time the base price will be reduced to $20.

Sorry didn't see this. Honestly, I don't think so. It's more intense and further removed than CK2. By further removed I mean that you control a country rather than a person/lineage so it's more abstract. If you like CK2 there's a good chance you'll like EU4. If you don't like CK2 then I think there's a good chance you won't like EU4.
That's a crazy good price and should last you a long time. Do it.

I'm buying them as I play them. No need to buy them overpriced when they will be at the backlog for months.
How are those overpriced?

Thanks! I'll check it out on my PC later
Do ittt! I did it in the last sale. Only played ass creed 1 so far but I need to have all the games in a series.

You'll burn yourself out, especially with some of the weaker entries. I'd say that it's not worth it. Plus, some of them will be cheaper in the future.
EDIT: I missed the last caveat. In that case, just wait until they're all super cheap in the distant future. Buy something that you'd actually want to play now, instead.

Definitely! The games are really fun stabby collectathons.
I just need to purchase AC:IV and AC:U on Steam and I'll have all AC games on Steam myself
Don't do it. Buying them just to own the collection is pointless, and will start you down a collection addiction.
to give you some more motivations
nice to have everything in your library even tho you don't play them yet

Rogue is coming as well..
It's a first step. Me, I don't even find the time to play the ~100 games I have though.
Never. Must hit 1000.

By the time the people at Ubisoft stop polishing bugs (end of support, not because they fixed them all), games will have a better sale on Steam.
I don't trust Ubisoft enough to buy new bugged releases and then pray for them to fix the games. I do that with other devs, though.

Goal set xD it will take some time wallet is dead.
It's a very nice looking game and I enjoyed it, but I have no problem recommending waiting for about $5. It's nothing that you need to play right now.

Any chance CS:GO gets discounted more than 50%? It sells buttloads with no discount, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

The review that dissuaded me from getting the game was the apparently *very* low to-hit chance.

Alright cool, in the basket it goes. I'm weary of buying Early Access games and generally don't bother, I prefer the finished product.

I remember playing the 360 demo for the first time back in the day. That was the first game of the last gen to give me a jaw dropping moment that's so far lacking this gen.
Some that he can play alone and others I can play with him. Sometimes he just likes to zone out and burn stuff to the ground. But I'll play scribblenauts and plants vs zombies from time to time with him when he's in the mood. Toy Story 3 may just be thing, he loves toy story.
