Ok I gave in and bought KOF XIII.

I fucking love Ash Crimson.

Anything that goes on sale on your wishlist will have an e-mail sent to your account e-mail.

Thank you for all your replies, you have probably answered several steam sale newbies, but thanks again for the heads up.

Worth buying Costume Quest ($3.39) and Costume Quest 2 ($5.09) at 66% off?

Part of me thinks they can go lower.

http://getgamesgo.com/category/double-fine-day

Costume Quest is on sale there for $2.49 (don't seem to have CQ2) - if you need it right now. I'd guess they would be cheaper still on Steam when the daily/flash rolls around.

 

[Robaperas]

I'm lvl 267, but I don't know what am I doing... Bought Valkyria Chronicles and FRACT OSC, I have 7 bucks left to engorge my backlog.

 

[NervousXtian]

So at least Valve is still being Valve and not fixing their damn minigame.. everything still lags like a motherfucker.

 

[LuffyZoro]

Wait, so XCOM Enemy Unknown is on a daily deal, but Enemy Within isn't? And apparently the complete pack is, which makes it cheaper than getting Enemy Within by itself. If I buy that, would there be any way to regift the Enemy Unknown (which I already have) but keep Enemy Within?

Sort the specials list by ascending price and go nuts.

 

[iceblade997]

Actually, do publisher bundles go in daily or flash sales in general? New to steam so this would be good to know.

No they don't. If you want a publisher bundle just go for it.

 

[JaseC]

If I buy that, would there be any way to regift the Enemy Unknown (which I already have) but keep Enemy Within?

Nope.

 

[Kid Ska]

I think I've only gotten one card from the game so far. Because everyone gets one at the start of the sale, right? Aren't you supposed to be able to get three a day?

 

[Red]

I'm buying shit I'm never going to play. Even if I wanted to I would never have the time for half of this.

I await the day Steam Sale Addiction is added to the DSM. Then I'll be able to justify this to my wife.

 

[Kandrick]

I just checked the Monster Game, and i'm lvl 222. Still missing a card drop too.

 

[inm8num2]

I just checked the Monster Game, and i'm lvl 222. Still missing a card drop too.

And here I was thinking I'm Barney Badass after reaching level 86 overnight...nice!

Also missing that last drop.

 

[Yasae]

What a disaster.

They're the worst developer out there now. Ubisoft and EA could only hope to be so greedy.

 

[MUnited83]

No they don't. If you want a publisher bundle just go for it.

Quite incorrect. Things like Valve Complete Pack or Telltale Collection do have a chance of popping up as daily deals/flash sales with bigger discounts.

 

[LuffyZoro]

Nope.

Damn. I guess I'll still get it, but that seems like a waste.

 

[FoneBone]

I've still only gotten one card drop from the monster game. Fuck that.

 

[TheSlySoul]

I picked up a $50 card for the sale.
Bring it!

Hoping for the Disney Mega Pack.

 

[B-Ri]

I cant decide if I should get Homeworld remastered or not D=

You could be dead tomorrow. Better buy now.

 

[Benedict]

in 2 hours my life will become meaningful again...

 

[Bunta]

Level 300, woohoo.

 

[the_firewithin]

more like 3 since you know nothing will work again

 

[mdzapeer]

Get it!

 

[MUnited83]

Hoping for the Disney Mega Pack.

That as well! I already own the first megapack (thanks to the Disney guys!), but I'd buy the Mega Pack 2.

 

[hohoXD123]

You could be dead tomorrow. Better buy now.

 

[Daingurse]

X-Com Complete bundle was too good, brother wants to play as well so value through the roof.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

How the hell does this mini game work? I couldnt play it yesterday due to server issues, I click on it today and it says i'm level 107, with a crap load of gold and to resume playing.

Where'd that come from?

 

[oatmeal]

What do the card games do?

 

[Atraveller]

Still debating on Enemy Within, the pricing of complete edition makes me not want to spend that much. I'll wait till encore day and see.

 

[Sora_N]

What's the chance ffxiv is going to be on sale?

Just want to double dip lol

 

[tariniel]

Picked up Fez and Ziggurat yesterday. I'm hoping MGS: Ground Zeroes goes < $5 sometime. Another game I'd love a deep discount on is Ori And The Blind Forest.

 

[Bytes]

You could be dead tomorrow. Better buy now.

Or: You could be dead tomorrow, so don't buy it as you will be leaving less money behind for your significant others.

 

[LuuKyK]

I died a million times in the first mission of Valkyria Chronicles (the first one with a tank and shocktrooper). Thats not a good sign I guess. I feel so dumb. lol

 

[Quadraphonic]

I've still only gotten one card drop from the monster game. Fuck that.

Yup. Me, too. The page says to expect up to 3 a day...

 

[Pilgrimzero]

Between GoG and Steam I've spent maybe $15 and got a ton of games (yes, many of them retro). Origin needs to get in on the sale business.

I'm hoping Icewind Dale and Shovel Knight get nice good discounts.

 

[PsychoSoldier]

Well but he'll need all his Steam games in the afterlife. Just make sure to bury them with you.

I bet it almost definitely will - but just a heads-up, the Steam version is considered different from the non-Steam version as far as keys entered to your service account goes. This could be an issue if you mix Heavensward versions. As in, if you register FFXIV-PC using a Steam purchase key, you have to get Heavensward through Steam also.

 

[nephilimdj]

my group only has 312 players, think why we are going so slow, all my friends are in 900+ groups

 

[Shake Appeal]

Play Long War!

The developer recently called the base game a "20-hour tutorial" for this mod.

You're in teams that progress through the game together. You get gold just as everyone else in your team does.

 

[revolverjgw]

I don't get the meta game thing. Every time I click play now I get a message telling me to try again later.

Check the OP for a possible solution.

 

[ramoisdead]

I'm pretty sure it'll be shown as a repeat deal towards the end of the sale. Plus if Daily Deals work like before, you still have another 24 hours to decide.

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

Well, thought I was done for today. Just bought Homeworld Remastered.

I had FFXIV vanilla for PC. I then bought the Steam version and all I had to do was log into the game. So far, it appears my Green Man Gaming copy of Heavensward will work fine as I got all the early access stuff registered on my account.

Yeah, there are countdown timers in the OP.

 

[NervousXtian]

I'd think you'd only need like 50 active players to really blow through levels on the minigame.. just seeing the numbers on the lanes on my game.. of the like 900+ players.. only 10-15 are actively playing at all.. you can tell by how many switch lanes after a kill to an active lane.. it's surprisingly little.

That's because you're using the Steam FFXIV software but never registered the Steam FFXIV key to your service account (didn't need to) - I did the same thing. So as far as keys on your SE service account goes your GMG Heavensward is non-Steam, your original FFXIV is non-Steam, there's no Steam involved. Steam is just launching the FFXIV launcher.
