Playing SC really reminded me of how convenient it is when a game runs on my laptop, usually I'm bound to my desktop for my gaming.

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 think I'll buy Cosmochoria. Anyone who doesn't can thank me when that causes it to be bundled within a month.
Reposting from the OT
My list of Tales of games that I've beaten (updated Oct 30th, 2015):
- Tales of Phantasia
- Tales of Symphonia
- Tales of the Abyss
- Tales of Vesperia
- Tales of Xillia
- Tales of Zestiria
I've played most of Tales of games, but I rarely finish them, and Zestiria has earned its spot on my list. Totally enjoyed the journey with fantastic characters and great bonding between them (one of the best in JRPGs). Combat is pretty challenging as usual Tales of games, but kinda hindered with the wonky camera. Story is interesting but still with flaws here and there. Discovering new areas is worth it. There are lots of zones and dungeons that are totally unrelated to the main story. Too bad, sometimes travelling is just too long. I also love the sidequests. They're not your usual fetch quests, they usually started with a small hint from a villager or opened after a big story plot. Overall I totally enjoyed Zestiria, totally exceeded my expectations.
8/10
Nine hours in and my daughter and I are enjoying it very much. The first Tales of we played together was Vesperia and she liked that too, but - at least to me - Zestiria is much, much better, probably one of the best of the few I played (PS2 Legendia, PS2 the Abyss, PSP Eternia, PSP the World: Radiant Mythology, GC Symphonia, X360 Vesperia - I've yet to buy Xillia 1 and 2), if not the best.
In nine hours we didn't met any annoying characters (and that's a relief!), and we're looking forward to play it again this we!
We have to
get on the hill after fighting on the battlefield and beating our own general

Yeah, the fact that there is no annoying loli character in Zestiria is already made this game one of the best Tales of games. Loli is kinda a must have in most JRPGs, but I can't stand them, especially their voice. The loli character in Zestiria, in the other hand, is actually the best character in the game.

I think it's fair to say that Origin outsaled Steam this time, at least aesthetically.
I hope not, I'm going to be away for the whole sale and I don't want to miss all the fun of installing different extensions and running scripts in my browser xD

Never forget holiday sale of 2011.
Probably it's just me, maybe it was a matter of planetary and stars alignment, and it's very probably not a popular thing, but I was on the fence of shredding in pieces the discs of Symphonia the nth time Colette talked about her ultralove for everything, the fantastic inspiring nature, the greatness of friendship, and that the boo-boo-scary-evil-doers didn't concern her because love wins everything now and forever. Fortunately, I limited myself to turn off the Gamecube without saving ^__^

Which of the 3 games should I get considering the price?
I was thinking the same thing. Apparently the consensus is Dragonfall, but I thought I'd like to start from the beginning with Returns.
I haven't made up my mind yet.
LurkerPrime

If you're only playing one, Dragonfall is it, though Hong Kong is also good.
Returns is an all-or-nothing deal: it's the worst, so play it first or skip it entirely. It is a very primitive game compared to the other two.
Well, the stories aren't connected if that's what you're worried about. I really like Returns, but I can see how most found it lacking / mediocre. The UI is basically a touchpad UI adapted for PC, and it shows terribly. The actual campaign is okay, I enjoyed the writing and what was there for what it was.
Everything is better in Dragonfall. The UI, writing, setting, actual story.
Which of the 3 games should I get considering the price?
I decided to get both Returns and DragonFall. I'll get Hong Kong later.
Dragonfall is apparently better, but Returns is no slouch and definitely seem to be worthwhile. So I figured I would go from the start with Returns then do the expansion, ie DragonFall.

That late-month sale-fueled thread explosion. 500 pages? Can we do it?
No.

This thread will be dead during Hallowe'en, when everyone is out embiggening their backlog.
I have to ask the question when I don't understand the value of a game laden with dlc and strange variations in exchange rates

I know it literally just came out, but I wish Bulb Boy had a little bit better discount. I've been interested in it for a while, but I'm hesitating on getting it. If it were 20-30% off I would have already bought it.

Train A is departing Chicago at 9:00am and travelling <number of games in your backlog> mph.
If it can reach New York in less than an hour, don't buy it.
If it's travelling faster than Mach 1, then you probably own the game already, JaseC.

Wait no, Collette is not an annoying loli character to me. She's a sweet yet quite mature girl. Yes, I love her. The actual loli in Symphonia, Presea, is actually a decent character as well. That's also the reason why I enjoyed Symphonia.

I would rather play with an all Agnès Oblige party than suffer more Collette.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
People should feel genuinely guilty buying it at that price.
