I am a big fan of Brink, but the online is basically dead, and the AI in singleplayer can be unnecessarily frustrating (as they behave like 'real players' do, and just go for objectives they think they can do and not necessarily objectives which help win the game).
Here's the last thread I posted a bunch about Brink in. I can't help but feel that a lot of the outright hate it gets is because it is a shit port on the 360 and that's where the most vocal internet played it.
That or they went in expecting a COD style shooter, and it really, really, really isn't.

Just look at the server browser. It's a dead game.
You are a silly person for not waiting for the dailies on Metro and Just Casue 2.

Man the next choice in the votes is a tough one.
Where's the "I already own all your damn games Valve!" option?

Please guys I need an advice, should I buy Ys Origin for $7.99 or I should wait? Do you think that it will be cheaper during this sale? Thank you

I have to admit, the AI is not entirely worse than actual players. It does give a pretty good focus to dealing with objectives compared to other bots.

Go for it.
Or just buy Metro on GMG.
I doubt it'll get cheaper THIS sale. As I said before, both games are fairly new (both have a March and April or April and May release dates, I can't quite remember), they're only getting 66% off and have not received a price drop yet.
By Christmas they'll most certainly be both cheaper, at either 75% off, price dropped or, maybe, even a pack-in deal.
I want them, but as I have a huge backlog, I'll pass.

I still think metro 2033 will get a daily even though it didnt win against bioshock 2 in the flash sale

Stupid question time:

Might as well. It won't be this cheap again until probably a little before the Christmas sale.

Do the daily deals overlap now, or can I wait until the new dailies to buy stuff from today?

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Yeah, oath is way better on pc in every way.

Origin is a PC exclusive. Your mileage may vary on which version of Oath is better, but definitely pick up Origin.
You have Ys Origin on PSP? Anyway, even Oath is better on PC (I have both).
Wouldn't be surprised. That's why I'm OK with Witcher 2 losing the first vote. I have faith it will come back. Brink lost a community vote but now it's a flash sale

Wait, so if I buy an Indie Bundle as a gift and add it to my inventory, I can keep some of the games for myself and gift others? Or is it all or nothing?
They overlap by 12 hours.

You have 12 hours after the new batch of dailies to buy from the old batch (so 6am BST tomorrow morning).
All or nothing, you can't split bundles.
Pretty sure it's all or nothing. I don't think the games are added as separate items when you gift it to your self.

Definitely for Origin since it's not even on PSP.
PC version of Oath looks a lot better and plays better with a real controller, IMO, but it lacks some extras from the PSP version (voice acting and some other minor stuff). I'd go with the PC version in the case of picking on over the other, but if you already have the PSP version you may not feel like double dipping.

Yeah, I was very specific in my wording for a reason; I see "Brinks AI is shit" a lot, but I actually think it's not - it's atually easier to make AI with godlike aim that always knows where you are and works with the other cpu players flawlessly.
Brinks AI seems too clever for its own good; it plays like crappy pub players who are going for personal score and K
ratios, but not helping the team much.The daily deals overlap for a few hours at least. Just looking at Space Marine's page, you've got 12 hours still for today's dailies.
it's not from the US but it's 10.19$ here.

Hack-and-slash type action RPG, kind of crossed over with a dungeon crawler. Really fun.

This is the first time thats happened right? I remember last year that yesterday's deals would go away right when the new ones popped up.

all or nothing based on my experience on other bundles

My haul so far, only daily deals or flash deals:
Binding of Isaac
Sanctum
Ys Age: Origins
Trine 2
That's less than $20 so far but man, I am weak to sales when I wake up. Steam on my phone is roping in the money from my wallet.

Thanks, that's what I thought but someone seemed to imply something different earlier.
Also, Ys Origin is tearing up my friends list:
