Steam has me blocked from making purchases or adding to my wallet since early yesterday. Wrote a ticket to support as that's what the error message says to do, but I have a bad feeling they won't be getting back to me soon enough. Aaand since I'm out of wallet funds now that means no more playing with cards, so they'll be getting backed up.

Good time for that to happen :p

With work taking up the next few days, I won't be able to farm cards OH NO!

Still torn on whether to splurge on Kerbal, or save a bit by getting Reus instead... or sit on my hands for another day. As they say: when in doubt, do nothing... right?

If you're unsure on either game and something you wish to purchase has not yet gone on sale (or alternatively are more interested in),I feel saving your money is the best thing to do (to avoid spending huge amounts).

EDIT: Also since it may be lost at the last page, Little Inferno, Capsized, Oil Rush, Awesomenauts, English Country Tune up for grabs here (some for no winners, some for no winners and gifters).

I never understood it. Bad Rats is supposed to be a dreadful game. Why are people buying it for a joke gift? You are giving those devs money for a product that's not worth purchasing!

Perhaps the developers played some part in making it a viral joke. Genious!

What? You're blocked from buying games?

Shit, Valve is going broke pretty soon.

Yes, but why do people keep buying it then? They shouldn't waste their money on that shit.

And if they definitely need to waste their money, I'll gladly accept it. Give those few bucks to me instead :p

Those of you waiting on Rogue Legacy should just buy it if it doesn't end up going on sale. It's a great game and the dev deserves the 15 bucks.

I probably will end up buying it. I'd also need to buy a 360 controller too since I hear it's practically impossible to play with a keyboard.

Star Wars franchise! I want to pick up Republic Commando
Click to expand...

This man knows what's up. I also want to pick up the Force Unleashed games at a reasonable price because I want to experiment with all the physics shenanigans they have going on.

I mean, why haven't we got more games that feature real destructible objects? The Red Faction games are no more (I am assuming, don't know what the current publisher of that franchise wants to do with them and one can only assume Volition will someday want to use GeoMod again), and the Star Wars franchise has gone to EA who will never touch something experimental. I would like to see that Digital Molecular Matter tech be used for other games.

Maybe those PS4 compute cores (?) will unleash a new generation of destruction games, but I fear that will take a while.

Get Reus. Kerbal is fun but $13 is still too much for that game in my opinion.

I'll probably get it soon. But -20 % is too low. Will probably spend my money on the 50 % La Mulana instead next Monday.

I play with a keyboard, it's not too bad (although a 360 controller is probably better).

Snowball effect. After a while people think it's the cool thing to do, and then the game sells itself.

If Skyrim Legendary ends up for 24€ I think I will finally bite and get my own copy so I don't always have to move to my friend next door to play it! :p

If I've beaten Portal 2 on consoles, is it worth picking up on PC? Is the user created content good?
Click to expand...

A friend and I have played through coop and it was the best coop I ever had. Now once or twice each month we take an evening and play some top voted community maps in coop. I paid full price for Portal 2 and I regret nothing.

Yeah, some gaffer hid a key for a good game among a bunch of Bad Rat keys in a ModBot giveaway, and then a bunch of others did the same because they thought it was funny.

Another day at work, another day in the Summer sale thread

Now that we've had some time, what are the Reus opinions?

I believe Toma said it was pretty bad, so you should skip it.

He seems to love it, and since he knows everything about indie games, you should probably look into it.

I don't get this mentality. Why would someone deserve any money? I pay whatever I think a product it's worth (if I can find it for that price, that is), not whatever the makers should get in an ideal world where I'm a charity.

Not saying the game isn't worth that price btw.

Sounds like K2Valor is saying that the game's worth the 15 dollars you'd be giving to the developers.

People take bad rats that seriously? I've never played it.

Kinda kicking myself for not picking up F.E.A.R. 3. I might just get F.E.A.R. 2 instead.
