Me too, they are both pretty bad.
Seriously though, I always saw it as a Professor Layton rip off just with zero charm, easier and more limited puzzles and longer pauses between everything you try and do. Probably ok for a couple of dollars but that is about it.
Next big thing looks more interesting to me.
Am I making Gabe proud?

Let's see what number 100 will be...
Faerie Solitaire is my 6th most played game.

Haha. Puzzle wise they are definitely easier (for the most part, there have been some puzzles that completely stumped me), but the highlights for me are the humor, quirky characters, and to a lesser extent the story. Plus I love Graham Annable's style.
The Next Big Thing is good, too, and I had to stop and think a bit about what to choose. It's definitely longer than the two Puzzle Agent games combined.

But PA2 is horrible compared to the first
I'm interested in getting both!
I'm hoping for Ys: Origins to go on real sale again. All these comments about how great it is are making me really curious.
Other than that I'm just keeping an eye out for the daily and flash deals to see what catches my interest. I kind of regret not picking up Saints Row The Third for 7,50 and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood for 5.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Space :3?
That'll do I suppose!

Did you buy Ys Oath first? Everyone is recommending that game if you have to choose what game to play first. It's apparently more Zelda'ish and less dungeon crawler'ish. Plus someone said the characters are more interesting in Oath!
Now Origin is awesome but I've only played that so I can't state my own opinion about it - but Oath is so ridiculously cheap at this point!

Really? Didn't seem to do anything, unless I failed to hit it in my attempt to find any key that did something. But too bad, will find out tomorrow. Gonna hang out here for a while then crash for the night.

Not that it isn't great, but OiF is the better purchase if you can only choose one. It's cheaper, too! But if you can, both would be a great purchase.
Haven't bought Oath yet. I see it's 66% of till july 23th. Hmm, might jump on that before the end of the Steam Sale.
Alright, that settles that. If I pick up an Ys game this sale, it will end up being Oath in Felghana.
Once again a huge thank you from me! Going to check out Ys: OiF right away!

I am kind mad right now.
I really thought Steam-Support would have answered me now...
Thing is, bought paysafecard yesterday, charged up my steamwallet, somehow steam didnt get the money, while paysafe already "transfered" it to my wallet and it said I should contact steamsupport.
No answer till now.....
I just wanna buy Chantelise and Fortune Summoner. I am kinda mad right now....

To each their own, but I could not disagree more. The game is incredibly charming in my opinion.
I voted for PA2 because I love both of those games. The first one is better, and chances are it'll go on sale if PA2 wins.
Steam Support is terribly slow. I imagine it's even worse during a sale. Good luck getting in contact with them, especially since today is Thursday and so close to the weekend.

It sucks! Paysafecard is my only way to buy things now and now there was even an error....
The sales are just daily, so it makes me mad, especially since I have been waiting for the Carpe Fulgur Collection since the first day.
I thought I get an answer when I wake up today, but... no email at all....
My experience with Steam support is fantastic, my GF bought me the sunday the LA Noire Complete Edition, but she added it two minutes after the sale was over to the cart, and in the process of payment the price went up to 19.99 (what she ended paying), she put a ticket and Steam refunded the money to her, they said it's not normal and that they are not obligated under the TOS to give back the money, but they made an exception.

My previous experiences were also great, but...
... I mean, its not my fault, as well as not the fault of paysafe. It seems there was an error during the process of giving the money from paysafe to my wallet. Paysafe says the code was activated for charging up my wallet...
But I still dont have the money in my wallet, as well as some kind of answer from the support. I made the ticket yesterday at 19:30 european time, now its 12:47 on the next day...
I've e-mailed Support just once, and that was to confirm if pre-orders come with the pre-purchase incentives even if they're redeemed after the release date, as this isn't addressed anywhere in the Gifting/Trading FAQ (the answer was "yes", as I suspected). I also suggested that the FAQ be updated to clarify the matter, but the response, which I received a little over a day after the fact, didn't acknowledge that part of my enquiry.
What's your SteamID? I'll hook you up.

Looks like this.
How long will it be in pending? AH, makes me mad mad mad *lol*
I guess its in pending, since I tried to activate again a few minutes ago.
Its okay. I dont have any money in my normal funds, so I couldnt pay you back
My steamid btw. is the same as here: Chairmanchuck.
Make more neogaf friends *lol*

No point in waiting for a daily to pick it up, right? Since it's 75% off at 3.76 u.s.
What do you Steam experts thing?

Probably wouldn't get much lower, but it's always a possibility. Consider whether you care about a $1.25 or not since I can't see this getting more than a 90% discount.

You're welcome.
It might end up being a flash, but at 3.76 you might as well get it if you're interested. You'd only end up saving cents if it went higher.

Is the total war megapack/age of empires online deal worth getting?
Well at this point you are asking if you want to save $1.

Saints Row the Third is $9.99 for PC download on Amazon for today only. Steam redeemable. I think that promotion might be US only. Picked it up and never look back.

Thanks Eusis, ds8k and Polk for the input.
Edit: Is Hard Reset too...well. hard? Or those it have a difficulty in which a layman player like me could conquer?
I don't think it'll get less than what already is.
These guys said up yo a dollar XD
A dollar is a lot when contrmplating the big picture. Spend a dollar here another there etc, that's how some guys here had spend ridiculous amount of money in games they won't even have the time to play properly XD

Total War definitely is. Ridiculous value.
