Steam Summer Sale 2015 thread of refunding everything you buy (June 11-21)

Anything on Steam that's a near clone of Puzzle & Dragons?

I'm finding lots of match 3 games, lots of bad puzzle quest type games, but nothing with the feel of P&D (and without the wallet murder)

Man, this was a really, really good sale for me. The last couple ones have been duds, I picked up maybe 2 or 3 games and for the most part, had everything I wanted already.

This sale, I've picked up:
Orion
Legend of Korra
Gods Will Be Watching
Castle Crashers
LISA
Deponia
Hero Siege
Always Sometimes Monsters
How to Survive
Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons
Dino D-Day
Gone Home
Skullgirls
NBA2k15
Euro Truck Simulator 2
Ori and the Blind Forest
The Stanley Parable



Loving the Stanley Parable so far, it's hilarious.
Euro Trick Simulator 2 seems pretty relaxing, not super into it yet though.
Legend of Korra has really fun combat, seems like it'll be a bit short though.
 
Okay you're the boss.

330x192


Good job, you've made me proud.

So... Dark Souls II was never a daily?
Unfortunately, yes. It was not.

Can't decide whether or not to pick up Dead Rising 3. On one hand I want it, on the other I heard that the game is beyond broken and was never fixed :\

can anyone chime in?

Trying to be more mindful of purchases so I held off on getting anything until now since I don't have enough time to play many games.

Still need to beat Dragon Age Inquisition, Witcher 3, both Metro Redux, Banner Saga, Bird Story, and Transistor from the last sale. Also got Arkham Knight coming in a few days.

Got some things that interested me in my cart. Cast your votes!

Looking for a Yes/No/Wait.

1) Life Is Strange Complete Season

2) Game of Thrones

3) Tales from the Borderlands

4) Dark Souls 2 :SOTFS Upgrade

5) Valkyria Chronicles

I've got a GTX 770 and an i5 4670 @3.4 GHz and enjoyed it. Ran okay. It's worth trying, if you don't like it you can get your money back in a few days.

Just make sure you have good hardware. I have garbage stuff (gtx 460, 2.9ghz processor) and it ran pretty badly. I just upgraded to 16 gigs of ram the other day though and now I can play it fine on low. Looks like ass, but still fun

Oh good, I got a refund for Guardian of Light, so I can get it as its now cheaper price. I know it only a couple bucks less, but still. Now I more tempted to check out Temple of Osiris afterall, grrrr!
 
So I decided to wait it out for the encore sale, and ended up grabbing:

Watch_Dogs Premium edition
Chivalry:MW complete
Borderlands 2 GOTY
AoEII HD
Rainbow Six 3 Gold Edition
Hitman Contracts
Grim Fandango Remastered
Insurgency

~$50 which I had sitting on a gift card.

Is the Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel + Season Pass two keys? I already have the base game, but buying the season pass alone is 20$ (ridiculous price).

I don't know of any p&d clones but puzzlequest: challenge of the warlords is fantastic.
 
Anyone up for a 7 Days to Die 2-pack? $15.99 ($8 apiece)...

I posted about this a couple days ago...got conflicting responses in here with a couple people saying they regretted the purchase & others saying they feel like its a solid game...so not sure whether to bother.... Is the game worth $8? Or is this one of those that if I want to try I'm better off waiting for it to be a couple bucks so I don't regret the purchase?

If someone is interested I'll go ahead & pick up the game & you can Paypal me the $8 for your copy. Cheers!

Side Note: It doesn't look like Project Zomboid is coming back for the final day encore sale...bummer...

Oh, I don't know, I suppose it comes down on whether or not you want to play ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF LAST GENERATION ???

In all seriousness, I do consider it one of the best. Excellent level design, complete objectives in many ways you seem fit and thus having a great replay value. Atmosphere and soundtrack are great as well, really enhances the experience of the already great visual design of Dunwall, solid voice acting, and last but not least, the gameplay. Oh man, I could talk hours about the gameplay but it's just that good, you have to experience it for yourself. Whether you play it like a good Samaritan ghost, a homicidal maniac, or something in between, you can play however you like. Get the GOTY edition while you're at it, I highly recommend the the Daud expansions. Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches are one of the, of not THE, best add-ons I have ever played in any game, period.

And... have I sold you a copy?

I'M SOLD. I'M SOLD GOOD SIR.

Dishonored GOTY bought. The only game i jumped on this sale. :D

1) Not all the episodes are out yet, so is it really complete? If you won't be able to finish it for a while, maybe wait until the winter sale and/or when it gets a better deal than -20%.

2) How much do you love Telltale?

3) See 2), plus how invested are you in the lore of Borderlands?

4) Meh

5) Only No if you already own it on PS3.
