Support NeoGAF

[darkchewie]

That's cool, I was beginning to think they were dead or something, it's been so long since they've released another translation. It's a shame neither of the other two games they did were anywhere near as good as Recettear though.

Chantelise and Fortune Summoners weren't as good? Maybe I should try the demos before buying them. Interested if you have any more thoughts on those two. I was ready to buy them blind just to support CF.

I played the heck out of the Recettear demo though, definitely going to buy that one for sure. The whole concept of running the shop for heroes was a fun role reversal.

If it's already been posted, can't hurt to repost: Sleeping Dogs DE for ~$7.50 on Nuuvem.

Yeah, definitely try the demos. Chantelise is a fairly generic beat-em up and Fortune Summoners is an okay RPG with some clunky systems. Neither is bad, but neither is anywhere near as charming or addicting as Recettear though. But they might put a decent discount on the pack with all three which could make them worth picking up.

 

[Chanser]

Soundtrack worth getting for Prison Architect?

 

[chrominance]

Well considering the new one is on sale I would have assumed the older ones would be too since that's how it usually goes for franchises

Someone mentioned upthread that this might not have happened because Chapters has a different publisher from TLJ/Dreamfall. The theory makes sense, but ultimately who knows.

Dear Esther is so pretty. What I wouldn't give for a game with that kind of asthetic combined with the survival elements of say, The Forest.

Really hoping there's further discounts on the Civ 5 complete pack.

Seems likely Beyond Earth will be part of any recap day(s), so the Civ V discount should presumably return then as well.

"Valve has never been against trading, but it looks like this aspect—the proverbial back alleys and sketchy parking garages of the practice—was irking them"

Oh yes, shame on us shady Australians trying to get a decent price for games.

Well, with this loophole closed, Valve may be in a position to push publishers there to price their games more reasonably. But all the fault for those terrible prices lies with your retailers, so one would think it won't be too long before publishers stop catering to them and just embrace digital fully.

Bit slow on region lock news here. But when I first read about it, I thought it was only going to affect the RU/CIS regions, due to the ongoing freefall of the ruble. What I've recently learned is that it basically affects every single region that even has the slightest discount, over the US base price. Seems like they've taken advantage of the situation as an excuse to implement this. Looks like my game purchases on Steam are going to be reduced significantly during this sale, and future ones too.

[Nokterian]

Never understood the appeal of banished. It just seems like a stripped down version of so many city builders out there.

It is made by one guy and he did what Simcity couldn't. I am going to buy it because well your people can die from the heat,cold,diseases and what not.

They're okay but they don't have the 'spark' that Recettear has that really broke it out.

 

[unknownstranger]

Spent the little (a bit under $20) I had left over from the summer sale. Got so far:

BIT.TRIP Collection
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
A few extremely cheap games that have cards that I already forgot the names of.

Not too much else I want all that badly besides Transistor.

 

[Bricky]

Castle Crashes fun? Looks like it's a neat little game, and cheap as fuck right now so.

Great fun with friends, decent without. It's so cheap you might as well buy a 4-pack and gift a few copies away to make the experience way more enjoyable.

Australia isn't affected by the region lock entirely, we can still get games cheap through CD key websites. Of course, those who only used Russian purchases as their sole game income are screwed, but other avenues are there.

 

[user237]

Escape Goat is $1.24 and the cards would sell for a total around 30 cents, to bring it under a dollar

 

[XBP]

So rage won the community choice but has the same discount as the other two games?

 

[Lomax]

Yeah, all three got the "winner" discount. Hopefully that "mistake" continues for the rest of the sale.

Damnit, I was hoping this was a problem with the rage discount only. I guess it'll never go below 75%.

 

[Teppic]

Is there a hidden deals thread?

 

[Garrus Vakarian]

Does rage still have that 50gb optional download for better textures?

 

[Decado]

Is there a hidden deals thread?

Unlike last year, there isn't a huge indie sale with steep discounts A few things have been mentioned in this thread, but I haven't seen anything else.

 

[Sch1sm]

STEAM DB.

 

[XBP]

Ok guys, metro redux collection for 28$, yay or nay?

Endless series please go on sale (again) already.

I WANT TO BUY YOU.

Do you guys think neo scavenger will go on sale at some point?

Thanks, just bought 4 pack

Never knew this existed. Now I want it.

 

[Annubis]

The game is way too indie to get a daily or flash.
Having the game from a bundle, I can tell you that it's nowhere near worth full price.
Even 50% would be stretching it.

 

[gravitybear]

Is ryse worth it at 20$?

The general consensus yesterday was no. I'd suggest waiting for the summer sale (thats what I'm doing).

 

[gravitybear]

Yeah that's what I was considering. Probably worth it at 5$. Not 20$

 

[Sch1sm]

Don't think it'll get any cheaper than it was, but it'll be back encore.

 

[The Shogun]

Yeah that's what I was considering. Probably worth it at 5$. Not 20$

Ryse is worth more than $5.........

 

[FoneBone]

Yeah that's what I was considering. Probably worth it at 5$. Not 20$

Ditto, that's my sweet spot for pretty-but-super-shallow fare like that.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Hopefully Ikaruga goes on sale as a daily, since voting is out of question. I don't trust the Steam Community with their shit taste.


Otherwise, I'll get Astebreed.

 

[Green Wiggly]

One Way Heroics has been a pleasant surprise. Hard to go wrong for 87 cents.

 

[Elija2]

Is Lost Planet worth getting?

 

[sixamp]

Is ryse worth it at 20$?

ryse with the dlc is worth $20 plus. i loved it .Yes the gameplay is repetitive but so is any fps or hack and slash. The story telling and visuals of ryse are amazing

 

[shandy706]

FFXIII
Prison Architect
Rise of Nations

...so far.

Is ryse worth it at 20$?

Yes. Even if it's for the visuals and the hopes that we'll get a sequel!!

Have you played the final version?

 

[Annubis]

Have you played the final version?

Is it that different from early access? Looks very much the same to me.

 

[73V3N]

Wow Escape Goat is really good

 

[Blue-kun]

Had very little leftover money stuck on my account, noticed Last Remnant was costing something silly like $5 and decided to get it because I remembered the soundtrack being amazing, Tsuyoshi Sekito's guitar everywhere.

Here's hoping the game is at least playable, but if not I guess I can get to a boss battle and leave the music playing for 30 minutes, then I'll surely find the purchase justified or something. For that price it's not like I have a right to be very mad in case the game isn't to my taste... lol.

'Cause seriously, the music's good!

 

[XBP]

Yeah that's what I was considering. Probably worth it at 5$. Not 20$

I'd say 10-12 is the sweet spot for me.

 

[loganclaws]

I have no idea, I never played it, but steam rating is overwhelmingly positive and RPS said some good stuff about it...

It's a great port (unlike XIII and XIII-2) so don't worry.

 

[Blue-kun]

Oh, I meant the actual game, not just the port. I never played LR and somehow never heard people talking about it too much -- not for the better nor for the worse. But I was always curious because of the music, so I figured this would be a nice opportunity to grab it.
