How is Valiant Hearts? The only thing that turns me off from buying this game is the terrible uplay.

I'm waiting on that too, but I think it's very unlikely not to show up as one before the end of the sale. Still another week and a half to go.

Primary draw is its story and artwork. And those are both top notch. Gameplay is primarily puzzle-based stuff, so it's nothing that's gonna stick with you for very long. Worth a playthrough at least.
Uplay aside, I recommend it.
I just picked it up today and I'm about 3 hours in. I'm really enjoying it.

So I know the whole "wait till 75% or last day" rule, but I HAD to bite on a few things which actually surprised the hell out of me.
1) Devil's Dare 悪魔の挑戦 $7.79 (40% off)
A brilliant horror/sci-fi/action movie themed side scrolling beat-em-up with a permadeath/rpg infused twist. It may be a little slower paced than what I initially expected, but it made up for that in consistently polished gameplay, a surprisingly balanced challenge, and amazing 2d sprite work.
Absolutely loved it from start to finish, and I fully intend on playing it with friends at a later date.
2) Running with Rifles $10.04 (33% off)
Cannon Fodder + Battlefield + Multi-player. There's really no other way for me to explain this. A top down, open world tactical multiplayer shooter. Hard as hell, but INSANELY fun. I would've never expected a game like this to exist, let alone at such a level of quality given that it's early access.
Both of these titles have demos, which is another bonus if you're still on the fence regarding them.

Cannon Fodder? Now you have my attention.

i just bought vampire the masquerade bloodlines
I don't think it is violence that is censored. And do make a lot of effort to get the uncensored version if at all possible. It is amazing.

Has Dungeon of the Endless been a daily deal yet?
It's a daily deal now! The whole Endless franchise is.
Steam calls it "Low Violence Version" which I guess isn't an accurate description?
There was a work around for L4D2, I wonder if there is something similar for this
Nice one! Hope you enjoy, it's fantastic.

If you get someone to gift you the US version it'll work fine. The cut content is a bit where
the aliens come back for a bit of probing
Different game. Endless Dungeon is a 4X, Dungeon of the Endless is dungeon defense.
edit: oh, it's in the same franchise. Neat.

And so it is. Didn't see that. I have Endless Legend and Space. Guess I'll pick up Dungeon of the Endless too.

I tried using the patch suggested in the steam forums, but it caused errors in other parts of the game. Invisible hobos etc... so I had to fix the install.
The koala scenes are pretty funny though.
Such an awesome game, I remember finishing it and then look on the store for DLC, there are like 2 games I've done that for.
Did the game underperform or something?
I thought that was true for pc's at the time of it's release. It runs fine with enb and texture mods on my mid range pc which has a gtx 760 and an i5-3750k. You are right about the boring bit though.

I think I'm broken. My backlog has finally taken such a toll on me that this is the first Steam sale that I haven't bought anything yet.
Worth the $5?

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
I don't know how it performed, or what the expectations for it were; THQ imploded before they could finish publishing it and Ubisoft picked it up.
I think Trey Parker said he hated making video games after it came out, so that probably has more to do with it than anything else.
Please explain to me why I should spend $5+ on a ten year old game (Vampire) I guess I don't understand the hype for it...
God, I used to LARP this in my 20s...

Because it isn't worth it. The game is broken as hell. You need unofficial mod to fix the game after installing it for the first time.Please explain to me why I should spend $5+ on a ten year old game (Vampire) I guess I don't understand the hype for it...

One of those games I bought upon gaf hype and played 30 minutes of it. I didn't give it enough time but it wasn't pulling me in either. Some day I might go back and try it again.
I assume it's because everyone already has it.
I would have bought it, but I already own it.
ok then i can sleep tonight

Won't see too much of that outside of a Ubisoft publisher weekend.

wow!
damn all the mods for Tabletop SImulator
With Tabletop Simulator are there constraints that make it so you don't overreact with the Physics? Like the early trailers were all "LOL TABLE FLIP" joke game stuff but if it can actually be playable and not obnoxious, I'd probably dig it. Just don't want to accidently send a dozen pieces flying around and screw up a game because I moved my mouse too fast.
This and Twilight Imperium.
