I didn't get a badge for it.

Maybe it takes a while to receive the badge?

no, it's instant, but having all stickers is not enough, you have to apply them all to their pages, only then you get a badge

 

[Deques]

Will the sticker pages remain after the sale?

 

[Annubis]

Got a foil card that's worth the same as the normal cards for that game.
First time I see that.

 

[Arthea]

Will the sticker pages remain after the sale?

Once the sale ends, all stickers and sticker packs will expire. Make sure to apply all of your stickers by July 5th @ 10am PST.

I think what they mean for it, pages will remain, but all stickers and packs will expire.
At lest that's how I understand it

So if you want to apply some extra stickers to your pages still, do it today

I bet Nier waifu card is worth more than a foil card so there you go.

Sale is till tomorrow.

Sale is till tomorrow.

I know! but if you procrastinate you might end forgetting to do that at all

 

[rainking187]

Is there a way to flip a sticker? I know you can rotate them, but I want to make it face the opposite direction.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Wait, so what should I do to preserve all of the stickers? Save page?

 

[LurkerPrime]

Same experience for me. I tried the game a couple times but quit after having an invested couple characters die. Same thing I hated about X-com.

XCOM (moreso 2) is kinda special in that regard, in that evacing early from a mission is 100% part of the game's design. You may not achieve your goal, but at least your squad will survive. So even if everything goes wrong, it's still possible to walk away with something.

I never got that same feeling in DD.

 

[Annubis]

This is the best I could come up with

Spoiler

He never asked for this

Also, that Kyros sticker is kind of bad as it depicts it as a man.
I'm totally on team Kyros is a girl.

Well, I just accidentally cleared my entire gaf ignore list.
I meant to remove one person from there, but instead did the opposite. Ooops.

Tempted to get Mighty No. 9.

 

[black070]

Buy 1 & 2. Damn amazing games.

Well if you have never played Dead Space 2 before I would absolutely suggest you to pick it up. Saying it's the best in the series probably doesn't mean all that much but it used to be an amazing game and I'm sure it still holds up well today.

Thanks for the nudge on this. I played (and loved) Dead Space 1 & 2 on the 360 way back when but both are ripe for a replay in higher res and frame rate.

£5 for both is utterly bargaintasticle.

In fact, I think a lot of my PC gaming (I'm new to this) will be revisiting old favourites, but with better performance.

I've played the series before on console but the prospect of playing it at higher res and framerate excites me so consider it bought !

Anything other suggestions peeps ? Really into story driven experiences e.g. Alan Wake.

 

[JaseC]

Yeah.

 

[Shoklot Caek]

Don't. If you wanna scratch that MM itch get 20XX or Shovel Knight instead.

Gunman Clive 1 + 2 are also really good.

 

[Deques]

Tempted to get Mighty No. 9.

Don't hope too much about this game.

I liked it, but it doesn't live up the expectations

 

[Wok]

Alright, I have glued a bunch of stickers.

 

[Fare Godmace]

SOMA is available for ~$9, that should fill that itch.

Thanks for the suggestion, but we've already finished (and loved) that one. It was made by Frictional too, so that's why I didn't mention it specifically

-----

After having a look I've found a bunch of cheap games that look Amnesia-like enough for me, will probably buy them all hoping it'll be enough to tide us over until the Halloween sale. Any explicit reason why I should definitely not buy any of the following games? (Paging Dusk Golem)

 

[Nezzhil]

They ran out of codes it seems.
Consider getting it from Play Asia as they have copies that go for around $9

You removed me... from your Steam contacts. 😾

Or at least someone did, and I suspect it is you. 😅

 

[Ucchedavāda]

Am I correct in thinking that EU prices for Paradox games/DLC were unchanged? Or should I wait until after the sale, when they've reverted the changes, before I consider purchasing anything?

I need help to understand this expiration date.

Do trading cards expire tomorrow or next month?

on cards it is said in a month, so I assume in a month
if it's tomorrow I will be not happy

 

[JaseC]

Next month. "10am" is supposed to be "9am", though:

Valid until 06/08/2017, 00:00:00

Well, that or the expiration date attached to the cards is an hour off.

 

[Tonton]

The cards themselves say Valid until 05/08/2017

 

[Wok]

Alright. I hope you are right.

Guys, which is better for a newcomer to the genre: Diablo III, Torchlight 2, or something else? Thx

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Watch dogs 2 gold worth $50?

 

[JaseC]

Nah. Get the standard edition and pick up No Compromise and Human Conditions separately.

 

[Parsnip]

For someone who never heard anything of Ys, do I start with Origin?

If you are going to play all of them, I'd go in gameplay progression order. Starting from Origin and then going back to Ys I and II might be a bit difficult.
The order I'm playing them in is Ys I - Ys II - Napishtim - Felghana - Origin
Effectively leaving the best (or so I'm told) for last.

Hello from the ignore list

I haven't seen you post stupid shit so you weren't on there.

I don't generally remove people my lists so it must have been someone else. I don't think I ever had you on Steam actually.

 

[Monooboe]

Guys, which is better for a newcomer to the genre: Diablo III, Torchlight 2, or something else? Thx

I would go with Diablo 3, it is by far my favorite and also very friendly for those new to games like that.

 

[drotahorror]

Not really sure where to post this but I'm trying out steam metro skin, and at the top of my library list it says 'Controll...'

What is that and how do I get it to go away?

 

[JaseC]

Guys, which is better for a newcomer to the genre: Diablo III, Torchlight 2, or something else? Thx

As far as the "something else" category is concerned, Titan Quest: Anniversary Edition can be picked up for a few bucks.

You are using an old version of the skin.
You probably need a beta version if you are on the beta client.

Go with the King, Diablo of course. You won't find more satisfying combat.

 

[Pachimari]

Do I buy Assassin's Creed Syndicate Gold or standard edition?

 

[I am Error]

Guys, which is better for a newcomer to the genre: Diablo III, Torchlight 2, or something else? Thx

Diablo 3 is a good starting point. I would highly suggest to play Path of Exile after that. It's superior in almost every way but it's a bit more complex in terms of character building which might discourage people who are new to this genre.

 

[taybul]

Just picked up:

- Prey
- RE7
- Stardew Valley
- Nier au tomato

I had this and I totally forgot how I fixed it. It's related to your controller. Try turning it off or something

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Nah. Get the standard edition and pick up No Compromise and Human Conditions separately.

Ok thanks!

 

[SmokedMeat]

Guys, which is better for a newcomer to the genre: Diablo III, Torchlight 2, or something else? Thx

Diablo 3 is just as easy to get into as Torchlight 2, and it's a better game.

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Legacy and Trilogy releases on August 25th

Namco stays winning.
I kinda liked Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 from what I played during the free weekend, so I might pick this up sometime (good thing I didn't buy any of them ).

 

[blurr]

Picked up Prototype and Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition. I noticed I needed a little more for getting a card so I also bought Train Valley and The Banner Saga.

Train Valley was right up my alley(I honestly didn't intend to make it rhyme) - this was a real time strategy that was simple enough for me to pick up on and based on a theme that I did at one point of my childhood fantasize. I'm glad I made this purchase.

The Banner Saga was something I had my eye on for a while now taking into account the gorgeous art work. Turn based strategy unlike real time was something I really enjoy and can pick up on better so I decided to dip in.

Sleeping Dogs was something I liked but couldn't find the time to play earlier but I can get back to it, more so since I owned the normal edition earlier (before I upgraded my PC).

Prototype - I already played this a long time ago, I could really get back to it. This was an insane open world/action game during the time, I'm still confident that I'll find myself enjoying it even in this day and age. This should be interesting because I last ran it on a very bad PC.

Yeah same the news about this collection came just at the right time since I was wanting to play the previous games after that free weekend
