Would definitely take 30 hours as long as its good over 8 hours. So tempted to pick up DA:O Ultimate. I barely played my ps3 version.

Sell the PS3 version for like 10 bucks if you still have it. This pays for DA:O ultimate. It is a PC game at heart and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better.

 

[FloppyDelux]

anyone else seeing a white screen when they open up the steam store?

 

[Branson]

Guys. I dont know what game to start first. I cant sit and just pick one. HALP

 

[EternalGamer]

Asking again since nobody answered before, I already beat Dragon Age Origins on Xbox but I never played Awakening. I do not have to replay through Origins to play Awakening, correct?

Is Awakening by itself worth it?

[Einbroch]

If it wasn't obvious there's about 3 dialogues per 1 thing of combat. So yeah it's dialogue heavy, if that wasn't clear. it certainly has a bunch of combat, though.

I was about to say that there's a ton of each. There's a buttload of dialogue, but I felt there was a lot of combat too.

But ratio-wise, yeah. That said, there isn't the Bioware RENEGADE PARAGON thing going on.

Do what we do and play none of them!

Or you can try Mirror's Edge or Dragon Age: Origins

New flash deals are up.

Wait, is that a deal on DLC for a f2p game ?

Relax. These are the problems a gamer should have.

If you want to go straight to awakenings you have the option to roll a high level char and assign all of your spec points and skills.

As for the opinion on the expansion, I own it, but haven't gotten to it yet.

I have both already. Got ME on the amazon sale but it redeemed on Origin. :/. Im like 14 hours into DAO. I got it when it first came out but its hard getting back into an old save like that.

Holy mother of god.

You will get more out of it with your own character, but you can start from scratch with a new one. It is worth the extra $5 and your time but isn't quite as good as the main game.

 

[Reagan's BR]

Don't shoot people, run away.

Yeah I'm not too good at the whole running and jumping thing. Haha

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

I don't know what you mean by slow paced. It's exploration based, a bit sandboxy.

It's got typical eurojank, if you can run metro 2033 on your machine you shouldn't have an issue with stalker, especially pripyat.

Graphics at times are a bit dated but the art style is good. Get the complete mod to change the lighting amongst a lot of other things.

Thank you, and thank you for all the info ...hmm still not sure of the purchase.

Tribes starter pack and the AoE civilization pack were/are daily deals. Not unheard of. My friend tells me that that's a pretty good deal for that DCUO pack. She picked it up.

You have to own both, but you don't need a previous save file to start Awakening. If you bought the Ultimate Edition right now you could just jump into Awakening.

 

[Tess3ract]

I didn't like the boss battles for Awakening at all.

Also I loved anders but that stupid writer ruined him in *GAME REDACTED*

 

[paolo11]

If anybody needs help buying anything from the US store, just add me on Steam. Like 25 minutes left on Dead Space 2.

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197978617538


And Wilflare can help with non-EA games

I need to speak to Wiflare so he can help me get a discount on SSF4AE, How do I get a hold of him?

 

[Jimrpg]

don't think ive seen blur on sale yet

 

[Koroviev]

Is it possible to somehow transfer a save from Origin to Steam? I don't think I want to buy DA:O again right now, as I've no idea when I'd get around to playing it. However, if I happen to play it before the fall sale, I'd like to be able to keep my progress.

 

[KingKong]

woooot had tiny & big on my wishlist

 

[Sarcasm]

Guys. I dont know what game to start first. I cant sit and just pick one. HALP

I am about to do this:

Steam Roulette

 

[NullPointer]

Wait - Half Life 2 is controller enabled? Its store page seems to include a bunch of other stuff so I'm not sure.

I'd be down to revisit City 17 and DLC if so. Its been forever since I played that on PC.

Pretty sure saves are stored in the same place regardless of what service the game is on.

After playing The Game That Shall Not Be Named, it's going to be really hard to come back to DA:O. I mean really hard.

 

[Katoki]

Well that's certainly new... DCUO DLC as a flash sale.

 

[sorijealut]

Friggin' GAF.

You guys pummeled me last page and before I knew it I was sold.

 

[Absoludacrous]

So as someone who doesn't want to drop $30 on the new Sins, is the old Sins worth picking up?

Reasking, thread moves fast

 

[Vamphuntr]

Asking again since nobody answered before, I already beat Dragon Age Origins on Xbox but I never played Awakening. I do not have to replay through Origins to play Awakening, correct?

Awakening is pretty short and doesn't add much. It's basically a "lite" version of Origins. Some of the depth of origins is watered down here unfortunately. You can't talk with your party members outside of prescripted events where you click on an object that interests them. There's no quests for the new specializations, you simply buy the book from a store and your teammates can't teach you specializations either. Most dungeons are really small, like occupy only one screen on your map screen. It's fairly easy too. On the plus side you own a fortress and can upgrade it by collecting specific items and they added runecrafting.

Anyway if you really loved Origins you should get it as while its inferior to DAO, its still way better than DA2.

 

[kaskade]

Maybe arma 2 will be like 90% off the last day or something. I mean we've seen some games hit deals multiple time but still nothing on that.

A man can dream.

 

[frozzted]

Three DEVASTATING new powerrrrrsssssss!

**Edit** Tiny Big at 40% off. Was that what it was for community vote too?

 

[Branson]

I am about to do this:

Steam Roulette

See what if it picks the sequel first. I want to play Witcher 1 before 2. But I havent started it. I HAVE 48 GAMES INSTALLED AND I CANT START PLAYING ANY OF THEM.

Wait I can filter.

 

[Dingotech]

Sorry Tiny & Big, you look like you could be fun but 75% off or bust, hey this is Steam sales.

 

[canadian crowe]

I'm not crazy about MMO games, can I play DCUO mostly alone?

 

[KingKong]

Maybe arma 2 will be like 90% off the last day or something. I mean we've seen some games hit deals multiple time but still nothing on that.

no point in putting it on sale when everyone's still buying it. i'd expect it on the second to last day and the final day for something like 50% off

 

[Levyne]

Lame...now do I sleep or do I wait for the last flash to reset along with a vote...

(lol who am I kidding)

 

[I H8 Memes]

Send him a pm. He has a Steam gifting group but he hasnt posted the link in awhile so I think maybe it is full. If thats even possible with groups.

 

[mrgone]

Oh man. 4 days left :C

no point in putting it on sale when everyone's still buying it. i'd expect it on the second to last day and the final day for something like 50% off

At this point 50% would be enough

 

[Tess3ract]

Reasking, thread moves fast

SINS owns, then again you're asking someone who owns all the games and was never hesitant to drop $15 on the expansions when they came out (until rebellion anyways)

 

[jerd]

Ugh... Someone sell me on DA:O. It would normally be an instabuy but I've already spent so much money...

 

[Katoki]

I'm not crazy about MMO games, can I play DCUO mostly alone?

Mostly, until you end up wanting to do those instances for better lewtz. You also need to ask for help when those area spawns happen because usually you can't solo 'em unless you much higher leveled than the spawn you're in the area leveling in. Of course they're optional but it's nice to do 'em for the quest reward and all that.

 

[steadfast]

And with this unappealing flash update, I can sleep soundly.

 

[EternalGamer]

Thanks for the feedback on DA: Awakenings.

I think I'll wait. In this sale already have Two Worlds 2+ Exp, Rage, Fortune Summoner, Force Unleashed 1 & 2, Walking Dead, Ys Origin, Alan Wake: American Nightmare, Might & Magic Clash of Heroes, Hard Reset, Dungeon Siege Collection, Assassin's Creed Revelations, Crusader Kings, Warlock, Tomb Raider Anniversary, Prince of Persia Forgotten Sands, Fear 3, and about four or five others.

I think I have plenty to play.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

I'm surprised the nude mod isn't top or most downloaded mods at dragon age nexus.

It probably is, but you have to be logged in and have adult content allowed to see it.

I mean... what? >.>

Oh snap, Tiny Big! Can't wait until the next Steam sale when it's $2.50 so I can cut some stuff!

 

[Tess3ract]

This sale can't end without them putting Divine Divinity: DKS on a flash deal, come the fuck on even Stronghold 3 was a deal.

 

[EternalGamer]

Ugh... Someone sell me on DA:O. It would normally be an instabuy but I've already spent so much money...

I'm confused on why you are asking people to "sell" you on it if you don't want to spend more money.

 

[sorijealut]

Ugh... Someone sell me on DA:O. It would normally be an instabuy but I've already spent so much money...

Friggin' GAF.

You guys pummeled me last page and before I knew it I was sold.

Look what happened to me... go 2 pages back (159).

 

[Flying_Phoenix]

DayZ and Red Orchestra 2. Those are the ONLY two games I want.

 

[JaseC]

no point in putting it on sale when everyone's still buying it. i'd expect it on the second to last day and the final day for something like 50% off

I don't expect it to be any higher than 33%:

I don't think this will happen. Amazon had the ARMA 2 games for half off back in May, but its most recent discount, only a few days ago, was just 33%. I'd be surprised -- maybe even shocked -- if the Daily/Flash/Community's Choice discount is any higher.

I want to be wrong since the game is on my list and -33% won't cut it.
