You think? I could be wrong but i thought L4D2 would be more CPU intensive because it has zombies.
CS:GO runs badly (lots of drops from 60-90fps) no matter what settings on my i5 laptop. L4D2 runs wonderfully at highest settings on both my laptop and 7 year old C2D desktop.

My haul today:

Payday 2 Hotline Miami + Historical DLC = ~3
Might and Magic X = 3 from trader

Pretty good if I don't say so myself.
 
I laugh in the face of trading restrictions.

Ha!
I was gifted Kromaia today by a GAFer and in the gift note, I was requested to make (a) webm(s) of the game.
I've completed the task... and while my flying is terrible, the game itself seems pretty decent.
It's on sale for $5 currently (75%) if you're interested.

Looks super trippy. But pretty cool also.
Far Cry 4 looks really nice:
Definitely a great pick up if you loved FC3.
Mh-hm. Nice. Is that with HBAO+?

Guess US folks are celebrating turkey-day and that's why it's pretty slow here. Have fun eating with your families peeps!
Funny thing though. I thought I'd be much more into the sale but it just passes by me. Maybe not having monies this time is kind of a bless.

Also. Crazy nice thing of you to do Shadow. Respect.

not sure if its breaking 2k earlier this year, or the fact that im playing one massive game (Inquisition) with another waiting to be next (the wow xpac), but I just cant seem to pull the trigger on games like I used to. I actually think "im never gonna play this" now... what happened to me :(


because you know that if you buy a game it will be bundled in a fortnight

Same here. I buy a bunch of games and then I end up just playing the usual multiplayer stuff I already own. That's why I'm cutting back on my list of must buy games.
 
1 month.

i guess i can wait

Having never played a game published by Disney and available on Steam, are these games legitimately good, is it for nostalgia, is it just for the +1? Is it the eternal hope that a game finally goes on sale (remember Bloodlines?) Help me understand here.

Some of both, and a bunch were just added to Steam recently so sales this soon would unlikely no matter what. But Disney is notoriously stingy with sales, both in how rarely they put things on sale, and how they tend to only go 50-66% off at the most.

I'm dangerously close to 1000 games. This is a threshold men are not meant to cross. Something you're not meant to disturb is slumbering beyond that point.

I must have my Disney collection.



I kinda want to play Pure too.

Words. How many bilingual are there in steamgaf?
*raises hand*
I can actually speak properly only English and Spanish, but can understand to some degree Portuguese, Italian, French and a bit of German and Japanese
thank animus

Nuuvem hates Asians.

*Raise hand*
It's obviously payback to what Japan did to the Brazilian-Japanese :p

...thats spanish. fuck you lamber
Eh, tomato tomato.

I'm obviously joking :p

It's the only issue I've had throughout all ~61 hours. My games just hate me.
No no, they just love you very deeply and they finally got your attention, so they definitely don't want to let go. You know, like cats and dogs that start breaking things if you ignore them for five seconds for a bit.

Saoirse wallpaper, not surprising. Winamp though, wow.
Winamp is life, so I approve of that.
VLC on the other hand... *shudders*

There is a sale thread? Usually when there is a sale thread the normal Steam thread is locked. I guess it still remains unlocked now that it's in the Community
Yeah, also what will happen is a fewer influx of new people to the community, as opposed to what used to happen in the past.

South Park by itself is worth $18.
Truth, I'm really tempted by that Ubi deal but I already got it :(

Can I use a voucher with these VIP deals? Evil Within is 16.99€ ... wondering if it can go even more down
Nope (I tried)

So... does that mean you are interested in splitting the deal? I'll take Lara Croft for 5$ and you get South Park for the rest.
You must be new here :p

I was sad and angry that I missed this, but then decided to put my GMG credit to good use... Wolfenstein for $3 was pretty sweet :D
Also especially for this:
You will. It's practically impossible for Bethesda to distinguish those who actually pre-ordered the game from those who bought a pre-order key after its release.
I really hope we end up getting access to the beta.

Nice sale btw
lol pretty much.

Quite a few of the games on my wishlist are around ~8€/9€ (Crypt of the Necrodancer, Spintires, Blazerush, Dungeon of the Endless...).

Might sound cheap, but they're all just outside of my impulse buy range. :/
Look at the russian price and then check if they are in your range? :p
That's what I do at least...

Can you not use coupons in the VIP section?
Sadly, nope.

Counter Strike complete is $7.64, including Global Ofensive
Btw Global Ofensive is $7.49 =d

Counter Strike Complete
Yeah, they have been doing that for a while, but only in Latin America I think (with the exception of Brazil)

Ah, so there is a Korean version of FM 2015. At first I figured that was obvious since the international version doesn't support Korean, but the fact it's still not present in the registry had me a bit doubtful.
Did you ever manage to get any of the older Korean editions?

Worst Tales of game ever! Get your shit together Bamco! Terrible battle system too. At least it got annoying mascots.
Tempest vindicated? :p

Is Batman Origins Season pass worth it? It's 3.75€ on bundlestars.
Yes.

Oh, that's pretty sweet!
This being Nintendo, I doubt it'd happen :(

its just 1,50€ lost so no biggie but lol at lords of shadow 2 80% >_> wait for the dailies indeed
To be fair, that is a weird discount to make. I got it from Russia, so the difference it the end was just a few cents :p

It also pulls games from "not interested" list mostly. Perhaps just to make me upset.

Well, one needs english to get to the good porn, so I tried my hardest to learn this magical porn accessing language. My other language is of course german. Since I was born and raised in the magical land of germany.
I can also read cyrillic letters.

I'm just one hour into the game, but Wolfenstein TNO is one of the best FPS I've played in the last few years. What a wonderful game.

On the bilingual thing, spanish and catalan as mother tongues. English as language I like to butcher.

I'm fluent in German and English, took Latin (sucks), Italian and Spanish in school for several years. I can still read those alright but speaking becomes rough quickly when you don't use a language at all. Took a semester each of Finnish and Japanese at university but that's super basic stuff.

Yeah. I think we got more incest than you would think of in japanese porn and a lot lot more gerontophilia stuff, it's really disgusting. Or so I heard. But we have many funny porn dubs. Is what a friend told me.

The most essential skill in dota.
I can read the letters, not actually understand what the words mean. It helps a bit, when they use words that sounds similiar to the english or german ones or write specific foreign words in those letters. But for dota or lol rages it isn't enough most of the time.

I'm kind of tempted to buy Telltale's Game of Thrones when it is released. I know it's Telltale and they have been pretty terrible recently when it comes to bugs and stuff. That said I have a weak spot for Game of Thrones universe and who knows maybe this will be one of their good ones again?

Both Walking Dead Seasons and Wolf Among Us were amazing. And Tales Of Borderlands is reviewing really well I think.

Only problem they have is the old engine and save file bugs and they refuse to do anything about them or even comment on them it seems. Though I think it was mostly just the first walking dead.

I'm happy and lucky I didn't get any myself, so I really love all those games I mentioned.

I was really impressed with The Walking Dead Season 1 but didn't feel Season 2 and TWAU were as strong showings. Still nice games which is why I'm interested in GoT and to an extent Tales of Borderlands.

If you buy a Telltale game when it gets released, you're gonna have a bad time. If you absolutely want it fast, wait until episode 2 is released, then start checking the forums to see if people complain that their save games are fucking up from one episode to the next. If the number is acceptable to you, get it. To minimize problems, wait until all five episodes are released.

Question for the Steam sale experts:

I want to pick up M&M Heroes 6 and M&M Legacy X.

However, I Know I won't play both anytime soon. RIght now they're 75% off.

Should I just satisfy my OCD and pick it up now, or will they likely have just as good of sales next time around?

HoMM6, or rather M&MH6 (why they did that? it's so stupid!) goes on sale fairly regularly, as far as I noticed, M&MX probably will too, but not like we really know.

Another characters pack was added for 100% Orange Juice. It includes Kyousuke from QP shooting Dangerous and Saki from Suguri.
 
well turns out my little bro bought evil within from gmg, looks like i just saved some cash! thats good tho, i can save it and see if origin will have dragon age any cheaper since it got garden warfare cheaper yesterday. but evil within isn't appearing in my library even tho my bro and i share our library. whats up with that? hope its not another resident evil 4 thing where even though you can share RE4 it won't appear on his library.

I shared The Evil Within with my brother and he was able to play it (even on a different computer)

You shut your dirty mouth. :(

If I count that, I know four to vastly varying degrees of fluency.
Ha, that's mostly my teenage self speaking. Looking back at it it's kind of fascinating how inflected the language is, you can put words pretty much anywhere you want and leave the hassle of solving the riddle to the recipient. That's probably why it annoyed me so much, as a learner of Latin you're always the recipient.

Welp, seems like the PS4+GTAV+TLoU bundle on amazon is eligible for international shipping, so I guess I'm bailing out of the Steam sale :O

yea i know thats how it should work but sometimes it doesnt work, its glitched. like RE4 for me. he can't access it but other people don't have that problem. i think Evil Within will have it as well unless he needs to play it at least once before i can install it.

Do you have RU-tagged RE4? You can't share region locked copies (even thought you can play & activate gift outside said region).

Evil Within should share fine:
