Bye-bye non-Bethesda Fallout games:
Edit: The actual apps have had the publisher detail changed to Bethesda Game Studios, so assuming the intention is to return the games to the store then they shouldn't be gone long.
None whatsoever.

I think i've managed to be more conservative than you since I'm still getting into it. It may well be the first game I pay a micro-transaction in
Just be careful. Some doors, once opened, can never be closed.

I have only started spending money after about 300-400 hours in. But then... Be careful, be very careful.

Really Humble Bundle? I bought Machinarium and Samorost 2 on Steam one hour ago...
The games are good at least, but I think almost everyone here already has everything except Shelter.
have everything except Windowsill, which looks slightly interesting.
all DRM free and Mac.
It's a cute toy for a buck. A nice little puzzle-adventure to play with a young kid.
Why do this now, I wonder?

Awesome games, I have a feeling they'll be back.
Why? I was going to pick them up eventually... but I have them on GOG.
Disney revoked the license.
Interplay's contract expired. They should be back soon because each app already has this change:
With Bethesda you can never be sure, though (no Quake Wars, no Wolf09).
Buying games that get pulled from Steam feels amazingly rewarding, especially since I'm not going to play it.

Similar situation here, I have Machinarium and Botanicula already and I'm not super interested in the rest aside from Shelter, so I won't be nabbing for now unless there are good BTA incentives later.
Interplay lost the rights to sell them on January 1, they were pulled from GOG as well. Bethesda will have to put them back up if they care too.
They were removed from sale on GOG last week. Right after they were made free for 48hrs. Was it Interplay who were still publishing them?
Edit: And beaten into submission twice over.

I playe through Lume on New Year's Eve. It's a fun little time. It has some decent puzzles, and a really great look. Just be warned that it's an hour long, if that's a problem for you.
Worth checking out though!

I hope they don't remove the Interplay intro from those games. Some amazing nostalgia would a horrible thing to lose.

They would sooner stop selling the game before they would put forth the effort to change the game's intro.
Advice is still sound. All games on sale had their timer counting down to today.
That is a strong set of warnings. On the one hand, if I get to 300 hours, I feel they deserve something at least, but that is certainly the beginning of a dangerous path by the sounds of things.... I'm more aware of it now. I'll be careful
or fail miserably

I'm sure they will return to steam. GoG, not so sure.

Yesterday was the last day. All the timers said so, today is the encore...
to be fair I love blonde zooey and I wish she stopped already with the trademark fringe thing so I can understand the sentiment

They'll find a way to sell the games again.
Gotta recoup those Elder Scrolls MMO losses somehow.

Why assume instead of reading this thread? We talked about the countdowns running out all day and longer. The suggestion was always to buy everything before the dailies run out.
They are. They took over the rights from Interplay as of 2014. It's the same reason why GOG took them down (And why Interplay let GOG give them away last month).
Well played.
Bethesda has owned the Fallout IP for years. Interplay's time simply ran out.
Edit: Beaten.
Lalalala didn't read here's my haul list:
BLABLABLA
BLABLABLA 2: Electric Blablaloo
BLABLABLA Revolution Revengeance: Origins: GOTY Edition
BLABLABLA Revelations
BLABLABLA IV
BLABLABLA IV: Talk More! DLC
BLABLABLA (reboot)
(sorry!)
