That is true! Thought of adding it but I'm typing on the phone so I didn't. But yeah, shallow it is.

You can say that again

Thanks mates! <3

 

[KPJZKC]

Apples to Motorcycles.

Not even close.

If you like multiplayer, get chivalry.

If you like single player immersive (amazing) elite/pirates! type rpgs, grab Mount & Blade Warband - which also has pretty good multiplayer (and quite similar to chivalry at that too).

 

[Papytendo]

I bought a sonic racing game. What have I done?

Got ready to go fast

 

[Toma]

My only worry on getting Galaxy on Fire 2 is that it's a mobile game.

On the fence as well, someone from the Indie Sales thread said that Strike Zuit was better though.

 

[Overdoziz]

I've never played a game that's been as consistently funny as Chivalry. All while being fun to play too!

 

[Grief.exe]

To Chivalry or not to Chivalry. That is the question. Which one is the better between Chivalry and Mount and Blade?

Don't ask me to choose!!

 

[zer0blivion]

Tell me what to vote for, I have Batman and JC2 and I'm not really interested in BF.

 

[Madrugador]

I bought a sonic racing game. What have I done?

A wise choice.

 

[Volotaire]

Fuck it, I'm getting Chivalry.

Buy it, Buy it!

 

[Gintoki313]

Sonic Generations has been on my wishlist for the past months and i finally can take it off. It was on sale for $7.50 so I took the chance the moment I could.

I guess that was my last game for this sale, so I guess I'm done. I have only $0.82 left in my Steam wallet and I started out with $52, and I leave with 8 games. I guess it was a pretty ok sale for me.

 

[VandalD]

To Chivalry or not to Chivalry. That is the question. Which one is the better between Chivalry and Mount and Blade?

Debatable if you're wanting multiplayer. Mount and Blade Warband for playing alone.

 

[UncleBiz]

$10 left in my Steam wallet. Thinking about The Pit and either Sonic or Chivalry. Which to buy..

 

[roosters93]

Where can you see that information? I can't seem to find it.

I don't know if there's an easy way but I did

Profile -> Badges -> Click on "How can I earn more cards?"

The damage. I reserve the right to jump on any recaps and/or sale items that didn't get daily/flash/community discounts on the last day.

Edit: Wait, what's Super Hexagon doing in there? That's from a humble bundle.

Oooh how do you sort like this?

 

[yami4ct]

Well, at this point I'm willing to take the $4 bet, difference between current and 50% off, that Rogue Legacy isn't going on sale so I can have all weekend to play it.

And with that, the steam sale is pretty much done for me. There were some surprises, decent sale on Kerbal and the amazing Tomb Raider sale to name a couple, but overall it was pretty middle of the road as far as steam sales go. Lack of major indie representation in the dailies and flash deals was disappointing. I really hope that that's something we see turned around for the winter sale.

Well, now that I'm officially done with the summer sale, you probably won't see much more of me in the sale thread. I may pop in once in a while, but not nearly as much as I was during the week. I may pop in the official Steam OT when this is all over. It's been fun guys, see you around GAF.

 

[Volotaire]

$10 left in my Steam wallet. Thinking about The Pit and either Sonic or Chivalry. Which to buy..

Chivalry now.

 

[Fracas]

Fuck it, I'm getting Chivalry.

You won't regret it.

 

[cicero]

Is there such a place?

Time to taste sweet sweet indie tears of happy. Stearn Summer Sale - (Overlooked) Indie Game deals discussion thread

 

[Slyjss]

People doubting about getting or not Alpha Protocol: BUY IT. SERIOUSLY. It's easily one of the best WRPGs of this gen.

 

[Salsa]

 

[Deitus]

I'm wondering this too. Looks like the mission pack and Strike Suit: Infinity might be decent buys, but I'm still not really sure what Infinity is. Anyone played both?

I'm only just picking up the game now, so I can't give any hands on impressions. But from what I have read online, Infinity seems to be an arcade-style, wave-based, score attack/survival mode. It uses the base mechanics of the main game (Zero), but loses the mission and objective structure and focuses purely on space combat.

 

[Crayons]

Awaiting Dunder's update

 

[SHarris78]

To the moon, worth a punt at just over £2?

 

[Rickenslacker]

I've never played a game that's been as consistently funny as Chivalry. All while being fun to play too!

I've never had so much fun avoiding combat before. I'll just aggro a dude and run away forever, trying to bait my chaser into another conflict all the while having my character scream at the top of their lungs. It is just endlessly amusing.

 

[Boss Doggie]

On the fence as well, someone from the Indie Sales thread said that Strike Zuit was better though.

Well, that's settled then. I wonder why the reviews are on average.

What's the difference between Zero and Infinity?

 

[Acorn]

Thanks mates! <3

No problem mate.

 

[SmarterUnconscious]

To Chivalry or not to Chivalry. That is the question. Which one is the better between Chivalry and Mount and Blade?

They are both equally fun but keep in mind Chivalry is pure multiplayer, while M&B has single player with some pretty awesome mods.

 

[Fracas]

Wag, where you at

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

I bought a sonic racing game. What have I done?

You made the best decision yet during this sale, that's what you did.

 

[GK86]

If Republic Commando goes on sale, at the next flash sale, I will be happy.

 

[Grief.exe]

If Republic Commando goes on sale, at the next flash sale, I will be happy.

We all will be

 

[Toma]

Well, that's settled then. I wonder why the reviews are on average.

What's the difference between Zero and Infinity?

Zero 5 hours SP campaign, Infinity Highscoring gaming goodness.

 

[Wag]

Wag, where you at

What's up? Waiting on you.

 

[kennah]

Sorry if I missed it, but does anyone have an opinion on The Pit?

 

[Deadbeat]

If Republic Commando goes on sale, at the next flash sale, I will be happy.

Its nice to dream.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Awaiting Dunder's update

Pretty much this. Hopefully he has Prison Architect.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

So, I have exactly 2,54€ card money left. Any recommendations?

 

[Rickenslacker]

If Republic Commando goes on sale, at the next flash sale, I will be happy.

I'm aching for some deeper Jedi Knight price cuts.

 

[phantomspiker]

Glad to see someone getting excited for it.

Damn good game.

 

[LeleSocho]

Here's what i bought this summer:

Hitman: Absolution
Hotline Miami
Mirror's Edge
Just Cause 2
Sim City 4
AudioSurf
Cave Story+

total spent: 19,63€

I'm happy.

 

[hitmon]

Debatable if you're wanting multiplayer. Mount and Blade Warband for playing alone.

Thanks for clarifying the difference. Are there bots you can play against in Chivalry?

 

[fantomena]

Is StarForge any good/worth it? Heard about slow updates and almost no gameplay.

 

[Fracas]

What's up? Waiting on you.

Did you already Paypal? I'll go ahead and gift it anyway though

 

[Lighthouse]

Tell me what to vote for, I have Batman and JC2 and I'm not really interested in BF.

Just Cause 2. I fucked up and didnt buy it the first time around, didnt know about the multiplayer.

 

[Salsa]

I will critique this gif.

When you first walk into a new Steam Sale OP, one thing you're sure to come across is a new TerModBotor gif, one of director Salsa Shark's trademark tricks. The third installment in the series takes a new spin on the same themes - the benefits of established rules and destruction of rebels. It's certainly a narrative that borders on fascism, but here Shark seems to hint at a new meaning - the always-ambiguous titular character, ModBot, is for the first time on the receiving end of the instructions, and, in a spectacular twist, coldly murders the oppressor. Is this a way for the director to encourage us to reflect on the lessons distilled in the TerModBotor 1 and 2? Does he expect the audience to read between the lines instead of simply taking the script at face value like in any other similarly action-packed gif? While this new-found subtlety provides a welcome deepness to the usually shallow story, it also does obfuscates its point. Some of the orders spewed out by ModBot's soon-to-be victim do seem to make sense, yet victim he becomes regardless, with ModBot professing a fatal judgment: 'WRONG'. The discourse is ambivalent, and even contradictory at times - maybe that is the point. No doubt academics will be studying the ramifications of TerModBotor 3's messages for years to come, debating over the correctness of their interpretation. Other viewers will simply enjoy the gif's unrelenting pace and perfect sense of timing, which culminates in a gut-punching climax rarely experienced before in OPs.

He's not on the recieving end of the instructions in a "remember to follow these" kinda way, but rather a "enforce and remember to get people to respect these rules".

Other than that, you're spot on.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Zero 5 hours SP campaign, Infinity Highscoring gaming goodness.

And both are standalone yes?

 

[botlite]

Sonic Racing Transformed is excellent as is KOTOR 2. If you have any interest in them I'd recommend picking them up.

 

[Widdly Scuds]

:O

I got my very first foil drop

 

[Deques]

Sorry if I missed it, but does anyone have an opinion on The Pit?

Three of my steam friends and me bought it, so it must be a good game

 

[Crayons]

If Republic Commando goes on sale, at the next flash sale, I will be happy.

You are going to be very disappointed when its Borderlands 2.
