I went to go buy Port Royale 2 as a gift because Port Royale 3 is on sale, and now I see that it has been pulled from Steam. When did this happen and does anyone know the reason why?

Pissed about that myself, it wasn't wasn't on my priority list yet I was planning to pick it up during a sale at some point.

Does difficulty affect Torchlight II's loot?

No, loot is unaffected by difficulty settings.

Last Light is superb, incredibly visceral and immersive.

I'm so depressed I missed out on that

Hey! You aren't a junior!

Wow, how did I not notice that. Awesome, time to celebrate with a giveaway!

 

[chixdiggit]

Has it been stated if the Summer cards will disappear after the sale?

 

[MMBosstones86]

did i miss the talk about the awful Flash sale repeats?

Because these flash sales are all repeats, and awful.

 

[Gvaz]

Did you like Far Cry 3? If yes, get Blood Dragon because it's basically the same game with a different skin. If not, then don't buy it for the same reason.

I said, right in the thing you quoted, i've never played any farcry.

I have FC2 but i've played it all of ten minutes.

It's always awful flash sale discussion time.

 

[Semblance]

In zero of these collages. The disrespect.

Is this Van Hellsing game any good? How does it compare to Torchlight 2 and the like.

 

[Rickenslacker]

Has it been stated if the Summer cards will disappear after the sale?

The cards and crafting the badges will stick around, but after the sale ends no new summer cards will be acquirable.

Hey, Dungeon Defenders isn't a repeat or awful.

Valve should consider giving the Flash Sale spot to lesser known titles, indies, and older games.

 

[Razorskin]

Valve should consider giving the Flash Sale spot to lesser known titles, indies, and older games.

Like Infestation: Survivor Stories.

 

[AlmostMilk]

Valve should consider giving the Flash Sale spot to lesser known titles, indies, and older games.

At least make it games that aren't daily sale games.

 

[alr1ght]

OT, but the guy running http://www.howlongtobeat.com seems to completely fuck up the usability of his site with every update. Instead of a nice long list of games by letter, now you get pretty pictures and 50+ pages to click though if you just want to browse.

 

[DukeBobby]

Last Light is superb, incredibly visceral and immersive.

It really is.

Those people who grabbed it for $0.01 are lucky bastards.

 

[Kipp]

All this collage creating has got me feeling generous. Fellow GAFfers, I made something for you all to remember this glorious Summer 2013 Steam Sale by. Something that truly represents what is great about our community:

Dungeon Defenders really needs that 2805th sale, my dude.

All hail our mighty overlord, Kipp.

Sorry, putting up Borderlands 2 on various sales 50 times is a bigger priority this week.

I would like to see some numbers that validated recycling high-profile games for casual customers that don't log into Steam each day versus one-time sales for less popular games. It's hard for me to believe that a big game's third sale in five or six days is more profitable than freeing up that slot for an indie that previously had a banner advertisement on your service, but hasn't yet had a deep discount, such as KR0, La-Mulana or Cart Life

 

[Jørdan]

Holy smokes didn't realise Mount and Blade was one of the 'popular games'. Of course sale will bring more users but wow.

Bought it yesterday so it's great to see an active community and holy shit at Terraria being 10th, love the game.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I didn't know I'd get an email every time...christ.

Wait, for real?!

*checks*

Oh sweet, at least gmail "grouped" them so I can easily delete them.

The cards and crafting the badges will stick around, but after the sale ends no new summer cards will be acquirable.

Making their post summer price delicious

 

[BasilZero]

I'm surprised not a single Worms game went on a daily/flash sale

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

Dungeon Defenders really needs that 2805th sale, my dude.

I imagine the spotlights come with a pricetag or something. contractual obligations, maybe.

 

[Gvaz]

So anyone else have any reasons I should not buy Blood Dragon or Euro Truck 2?

 

[drizzle]

You guys should put more effort on those photos mosaic and actually do a real mosaic, not some bullshit overlayed with translucent picture mosaics.

I mean, getting all the avatars is the hardest part.

 

[FACE]

I said, right in the thing you quoted, i've never played any farcry.

I have FC2 but i've played it all of ten minutes.

Sorry, I'm sleepy.

How much do you like inane fetch quests and copious amounts hand holding? You'll like FC3/Blood Dragon if you like those.

 

[DukeBobby]

Cart Life is probably the most unenjoyable thing ever, but I can't stop playing.

 

[chixdiggit]

The cards and crafting the badges will stick around, but after the sale ends no new summer cards will be acquirable.

interesting

 

[Grief.exe]

interesting

So the price could potentially go up.

 

[Nabs]

That's an excellent point.

We still have the weekend. I could see a franchise sale.

 

[Pops Maellard]

It really is.

Those people who grabbed it for $0.01 are lucky bastards.

Indubitably. That said, I have no regrets paying $30 for it and supporting the developers as best I can. One can only hope we see more Metro in a few years...

Company of Heroes -- MB-BEBA6A4F1B419397 - Taken by JoduanER2

 

[DaBoss]

Yup, I'm hoping out for summer sale cards to go up in value after the sale.

 

[OldAsUrSock]

Last Light is superb, incredibly visceral and immersive.

I'm playing it now too and it is so good. A near perfect balance between the metro and city gameplay. The story, optimization, gameplay and atmosphere have been vastly improved.

 

[Pestilence11]

Cart Life is probably the most unenjoyable thing ever, but I can't stop playing.

lol that sums it up nicely.

 

[def sim]

Company of Heroes is awesome and should be played. Great giveaway.

 

[Kipp]

You guys should put more effort on those photos mosaic and actually do a real mosaic, not some bullshit overlayed with translucent picture mosaics.

I mean, getting all the avatars is the hardest part.

What are you implying!? That I didn't put effort into my piece of art!? What a thankless job trying to be a good member of the community is...

 

[Grief.exe]

Yup, I'm hoping out for summer sale cards to go up in value after the sale.

unlikely, there is 40,000 of each card type right now lol

 

[hitmon]

The cards and crafting the badges will stick around, but after the sale ends no new summer cards will be acquirable.

What about all the users below level 5 currently that are banking some by voting?

 

[VibratingDonkey]

If you don't buy Chivalry your brain is as dry as a biscuit after a long voyage.

 

[satori]

Raaarrrggggg ok convinced a few of my friends to to chivalry. Looks like a fun ride lolol

 

[Vyer]

I think I'm out of steam sale money.

 

[Fatal Futanari]

Who gots cards for Metro Last Light or has Summer foil cards?

I have the sudden urge to buy Euro Truck Simulator 2, but alas, im broke

 

[Boss Doggie]

I'm surprised people still play Dungeon Defenders after the fiasco.

If you don't buy Chivalry your brain is as dry as a biscuit after a long voyage.

I would, but during the two free weekends all of the servers I played have high ping

 

[OrlanisWorks]

Just bougt Borderlands 2 and Chivalry. I am absolutely done with this sale. Totally finishes. Done. Nata. Finess. Fafloogin. Bazunggg.

Dammit, Rogue Legacy.

 

[Pestilence11]

I'm surprised people still play Dungeon Defenders after the fiasco

What fiasco? I played it on PS3.

 

[wenis]

A question to Scam-Z buyers.

I didn't buy it only because I noticed the thread title change... I would have otherwise, it's an easy mistake to make.

 

[hitmon]

What happen with Dungeon Defenders?

 

[Rickenslacker]

Better hit 5 before the end of the sale I guess.

 

[Wynnebeck]

So the price could potentially go up.

So basically you take a fiver, get to Level 5 on your own badge, then collect as many of the cards as you can until the sale runs out and enjoy your inflated cards!

 

[Baha]

I think I'm out of steam sale money.

Sell more cards.
