Speaking of Ys I picked up Oath earlier and man you guys weren't lying about those boss fights. I'm only playing on normal difficulty but it's still pretty challenging. I hope it's something I can beat, unlike that damn fire level in Volgarr

Oh it gets much harder too. Those beginning bosses, especially the first midboss really come out of nowhere for newer players. It's gets much tougher later though, espeically near the end

 

[Volcynika]

shhhh don't remind them!

jk everyone should enter

Yup, everyone can enter for each copy (if they didn't win in the last day of course), but can only win one!

Cheapest way I can get DayZ? It's £16 on G2A

 

[tiny raptor]

Just a PSA:

Company of Heroes 2 is really facking good. Just like Relic's other games, this game is a ton of fun even when you're losing.

It's extremely addictive, I've already played 30 hours (picked it up during the summer sale). If you have even a passing interest in the RTS genre, pick it up next time it's on sale (which is fairly often tbqh).

It's region locked so that or some other key selling site

 

[InfiniteNine]

Yes I did, and I got a lot of people asking me about it.

But I have to ask how you got your hands on this, did a Capcom rep catch you on as a big Dino Crisis fan and decided to let you into the Steam beta?



Clock Tower 3.

Oh wow I've never played it before! I'll buy it as soon as it gets on Steam.

 

[Accoun]

SteamGAF is now WaifuGAF?

Hey Steam peeps.

Almost Friday!

There has been Friday for 3 hours already.
And I'm excited because I'm seeing Metallica, Anthrax, AiC and Kvelertak live today.

Just remember to upgrade your weapons and to level up as much as possible. If enemies give you decent amounts of xp, then you should continue to kill 'em until they stop.

Thanks so much again for doing this giveaway. Not entering since I own all the games anyway, but giving people the chance to playthrough these amazing games is great. Also I like your Sati avatar

Even if anyone doesn't win the giveaways, you should consider investing in one of these classics for the price they are at. The bosses, the music, the battle system and the blazing speed, it's all there and it's so good.

Hey Steam peeps.

Finished Bioshock Infinite Burial at Sea part 2.
It was pretty good. I liked the minor stealth mechanics they added, made the combat more fun for me. Thought the story wrapped up nicely too.

Burial at Sea? That sounds like Rapture; does it take place in Rapture? :O

That's next on my list of Games2Play™ (or at least one of them). I can't wait to get back under the ocean.

Yes, it does. During the time period BEFORE its fall!

You are a good person.

These games are so good. If anyone has never played an Ys game and figure they only want to get one, buy Felghana and away you go. Having it on PSP made me actually enjoy a 13 hr flight with a constantly crying baby in the seat in front of me, which is like the highest recommendation I can give.

BTW, difficulty with bosses (like, dying too quick even though you've figured out the patterns and can mostly avoid getting hit) is mitigated quite a bit by gaining even one level. So try that if you hit a wall.

I'm so happy these went on sale and more people can try them for the first time.

(Everyone should play SpeedRunners)

That game seems hilarious, and a lot of fun. I've had it completely wrong for some reason. I thought it was an endless runner.

[electroflame]

I asked earlier in the day, but I don't think anyone responded.

How's the Humble Weekly? I'm not familiar with any of the games in it, so I'm curious as to whether it's a good bundle and whether it's worth it to BTA.

How much is it split?

 

[Toki767]

How much is it split?

$7.50 I think.

Shame too. When it was on sale during the Winter Sale and people weren't interested in it it was like $5 or less.

 

[iosefe]

How much is it split?

i dunno. i'm not making a 4 pack. i believe it's a 10 on its own

 

[Speevy]

I think he wants people to play, not buy a 4 pack.

Ah sorry I misread. Stupid Texas heat is making my head fuzzy.

This is how wars start brah

But you have already switched from Sansa Runsalot to Dreamworks Smirk Face!

There is.

Eh, doesn't exactly look much like her.

No idea, but that extra U is bothering me

You fiend D:

Gaf itself has become a waifu. We are all doomed.

Only ModBot can save us from this now. Unless it too becomes a waifu.

Don't be silly, ModBot would become a husbando.

 

[Toki767]

Actually if someone can get a Russian hookup, a 4-pack of Speedrunners there is like $15. I'd be down to pay $3.75.

Wasn't on GAF for a few days but:that title is making my eyes twitch....2014-2 really?

Anyway:

Reminder:

Steam Game Recommendations for August (New releases on Steam)

• Every month gaffers talk about what games should be on your radar for the upcoming month by submitting mini recommendations.
• Check the OP to see games were highlighted by our members for this month to get an idea.

Rules:

• 1. Choose a game that you think is worth watching out for in August that is on Steam.
• 2. Write about it, 60+ words would be great, feel free to go over it.
• 3. Send me a PM with what you have written before the deadline: 29th July

Here is an example I have added to this OT:

OlliOlli - MRORANGE
OlliOlli is a game based on mastering skate techniques and building up your score, being able to pull off amazing stunts
before you fall flat on your face in failure, with it's multiple game modes and vibrant 2D design it's worth picking up, the game was
recently acclaimed as being one of the current noteworthy indie titles on the PSVITA to play.

I enjoyed both BaS. Liked how level design felt less linear, with more exploration and backtracking.

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

I just bta'd the humble weekly. what's the deal with strife-beta requiring a separate log in deal and curse-premium. what is this???

 

[Halo 2]

I really want that olliolli game

 

[Servizio]

No key for me yet, guess I'll have to wait some more.

The keys are on the Asteria page. Just load up that link/key they give you on the groupees account page and make an account on Asteria's website. They'll give you a Steam key there.

I played a little bit yesterday, it's neat. Bit like Terraria. Not as charming though.

Bethesda... *nose bridge pinch*

You charge primo for Dragonborn even during sales, and its main quest can break just by fast traveling?

Hate you and love you at the same time, Bethesda.

Thanks for the heads up, looks like a lot of fun.

Is it possible to have another steam/pc game discussion thread without giveaways? Maybe in community if needed?
