GAF, welcome to our future.

I am 31, been gaming since 86, and pc gaming since 93. I am not a young guy that doesn't appriciate the old games. My favorite FPS of all time is Doom, nothing today can touch it. That being said people look at Morrowind with some sort of nostalgic glasses I don't get.

wishes it were bannable to say mean things about Marvel
Skyrim was amazing. Far better than Morrowind.

In some ways Skyrim was better, but overall I still prefer Morrowind. Oblivion comes in third of course. All were good games though.
 
So Battlefront 2 is $3.39.. Is this still a thing? Do people still play online?

Eh, not really. A lot of people played it during that huge Star Wars sale, and there may be a decent amount of people playing because of the Summer Sale, but it will die.

IMO it's still worth it for the single-player.

So now that I am diving back into New Vegas (I only played about an hour before and was burned out on that type of game due to 400 hours in Skyrim). I will be installing fellout to remove the orange tint. What are the other must have mods GAF?

Anyone?

Not actually that important
There are Euro 1 and Euro 2 (Greece for example) zones.
Euro 2 is often quite a bit cheaper.

How do I buy from Euro 2 then? I must be Euro 1 (Italy) since DE:HR (if the deal gets picked up by voters) would be €2.85 instead of €1.80€ (obviously it's not about shaving off 1€ for this specific deal but more about saving dough on future deals)

I want to get LEFT4DEAD2 as well but it's €7 here, fuck that noise. What's the cheapest one could find a key going for?

Italy is EU2!

listen to the mad man
What the hell is going on in this picture?

There's a very weak enemy called a Cliff Racer in Morrowind that is a flying bird. They spawn randomly throughout the map. The problem is that they are very aggressive and have a HUGE AI follow distance, so if one is within a mile of you it'll come towards you. Morrowind doesn't have any AI wander range, so once an aggro enemy chases you it will not give up as long as you are within its follow distance. Making matters worse, they make a horrible noise and they activate the game's combat-sensitive music when they chase you. It is a miserable experience.

That's a GIF of someone who has wandered around and run from hundreds of cliff racers and never fought any of them, in third person mode.

Almost there! :)

I'm going big. And foolish. I need three more Tomb Raiders, two more Football Managers and one more Torchlight, then I can craft all the way to level 5. And at that point I'll still be drowning in chivalrous kerbals (right now I have *7* Chivalries and *5* Kerbals.)

It's normal for me to spend big during the sale, so I think I've got a good chance of making it by the weekend. And if not... then I'll hit the market.

(And in all that, still no foil drops. Bah.)

I'm going to pimp Unity of Command... with a giveaway!

Unity of Command is a fantastic turn-based strategic wargame. If you haven't checked it out, you should. It's 66% off at $6.79.

So if you like Big Strategy games or wargames or whatever... this is a great, great game.

Wow already closing in on the end of thread number 2.

I nominate the next thread title to be Steam Stummer Stale just to create that itch in peoples minds that you know that title would.

Sleeping Dogs and Killing Floor cards have bottomed out at about 12-15 cents a card.

System Shock 2 and Dust's badges are almost double that. Think I will wait a bit longer to see if those prices drop.

It was #4 guys. Chairmanchuck was so kind as to give me the copy <3

Thanks Duke for the giveaway and thanks for Chuck for giving me it :D

That is actually the one I picked, but I was on my phone so couldn't get it in time.
