A singularity swallowed MrOrange into an endless time-loop, stuck in the year 2015 for all eternity. His only means of communicating is reposting SteamGaf GOTY 2014 results. His never-ending cry for help is a vain effort.

I bought $152 worth of stuff
oh well, my pc is a laptop so i won't be buying stuff on here for a long time, basically got every exclusive or last gen multiplat I really wanted.
Next game I'm buying is No Man's Sky, but on PS4, then Mankind Divided then who knows

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I spent $52.59 this sale, which is more than I originally thought I would.
The only real "trash" I bought was that $0.08 bundle of 4 games. Because they were $0.02 each. The rest of my haul I feel pretty good about.

Welcome back!
Daily animu deal:

Crying factor: 150%
Buy the game, people.
Had a lot of transactions, literally hundreds, with Steam these past few weeks. Now it was all cards sold via the market but it still counts, right?
Yep, another disappointing major sale. I still miss daily deals, again my wishlist was full of 0-50% off games. Now the only thing that makes me open Steam front page during a sale is to go through the queue three times over saying no thanks to 36 anime games (and the occasional visual novel, crafting or horror game) and for that effort, three more cards.

Good to be back to the familiar old Steam thread. Didn't buy too much (about 10 things) but I did finally get around to cleaning up my Steam account and removed 1200 odd games just before the sale started.

I forgot the check the pinball games this sale.
My haul:
Firewatch - Just 33%, but it's a game I really want to play.
Endless Legend DLC - Bought the base game on Humble Store before the sale, and then spent $14 on all the DLC for it. Not sure when I will play it, but it was a good price.
Sega Megadrive Classics Pack #3 - Only bought one, to try the Steam Workshop additions.
Even though I swore to myself that, since I would be getting a new laptop soon, I would buy more stuff during the next sale, I still only ended up getting one small puzzle game due to a combination of backlog fears and none of the discounts on my most wanted games being enough for an impulse purchase.
Really need to clear things out so I can start buying new stuff again...

I spent €241.8 ($270) during this sale. Way more than I had planned. I literally bought most of my games today. And this morning I also bought Ratchet & Clank and Uncharted 4. Welp.
Anyway, I made good progress in Wolfenstein: The New Order today, and started up LIMBO, while I am still stuck in the farm/night mission in Mafia.

I read 100% of the story (all Arcs & After Story) in 40-45 hours so I am either a fast reader or Howlongtobeat is a bit off for Clannad. Still a great VN, but don't forget the tissues.Daily animu deal:

I just stopped myself @200 € even though my wishlist was still at ~90. I just don't have the time to play all these great games. It's just the best time to play video games!
HunieCam Studio is 69% off which may be a mistake and is a lot more than it was during the steam sale, brings it below $2 with the humble monthly discount.
Talking about the Sonic Bundle, don't play Lost World, not even as a time waster
It tries REALLY hard at being Super Mario Galaxy but it fails at the most basic stuff that made that game so good, like... tight controls, or explaining essential mechanics. It has some sporadically good levels, but they aren't worth the 8 hours I spent with it.

The gameplay looks so good in those games, I'm very interested.

The soundtrack to a game I wanted to buy is part of the weeklong deals. Just the soundtrack. Not the game. :/

I got a bunch of stuff during the sale that I really wanted.
A certain someone gifted me Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin (boss spoilers for this game and the first Dark Souls ahead). I'm enjoying it, but the early bosses feel pretty bland compared to Dark 1's bosses. Though I did just 100% Dark 1 last week, so maybe I'm a little burned out, I don't know. The two homage bosses that I've fought (
) were especially disappointing compared to the Dark 1 equivalents, they were just so easy. The most memorable boss I've fought so far is the boss of No Man's Wharf,
, but I feel like the fight was sort of diminished by how soon you see it again as a regular enemy in Sinner's Rise. Like it's cool seeing
later on in Dark 1 as regular enemies, but that's because you fight the boss versions in the beginning of the game and don't see them again until near the end. With
, you see them again so soon that it diminishes the lasting impact of their boss fights, like Dark 1's
fight.
