It'll probably be back as a daily deal. Steam loves repeat deals.DmC isn't getting any lower right? Want to get it, but the price is too high for me as I'm also saving for MGS Rising and Arma III
editamn, it was a flash sale

OK gang, giveaway time. I tried to get Steam to send me an email three separate times in order to give this away via modbot, but for some reason it wouldn't cooperate. So let's do this a different way. Here's my Steam I.D.- http://steamcommunity.com/id/MakeshiftChef/, if I am not in your friends list add me. I will then check your wishlist to see if you have the game in there. Someone will be randomly selected by me to receive a steam gift copy of the game. Easy enough, right? Cut off time will be whenever I get up in the morning as I am too tired to do it now. Good luck to you all!
So in an attempt to get some more cards, and for once play something on Steam I bought, I just started up Master Reboot.
I just went into it without any knowledge of it whatsoever, and I've enjoyed the 45 minutes or so I've done so far. Visually it seems to stand out, and the minor puzzles I've done so far aren't bad or anything, but I'm not really sure what genre this is supposed to be? There seem to be some horror elements they're trying to tease, but for the most part I'm just kinda wandering around aimlessly collecting baubles to open up new paths.
So has anyone else played this? Any opinions?

If you're looking for story X-COM will NOT satisfy, though it's still a fantastic game in most every other regard anyway. Shadowrun Returns sounds like it fares much better on that front, and Shadow Warrior... I'm assuming you weren't hoping for it there, though I have no experience with that incarnation so I can't properly comment either way anyway.

What's up with Bulletstorm? I thought it git taken down. Is it worth buying or will it be unplayable once GFWL shuts down?

I'm just picking up Shadow Warrior mainly for the gameplay, it will satisfy the 90s fps itch I have right now.

:O Thanks for the shot at this.

If it's the new Shadow Warrior, it's awesome. The sword combat is the best in the biz. Better than Red Steel 2, and I loved that game. Check my OT for more

It's worth buying if you're going to play it in the near future as, yes, the game will be unplayable once GFWL is dead (short of GFWL being patched out or at least local profile support being patched in, but there's nothing to suggest either is happening).
The original X-Com (+openXcom) and Xenonauts are both pretty great, Xenonauts being a slightly re-imagined and modernized remake of X-Com. The Heroes of Might and Magic titles as Knurek mentioned, and a bajillion Kings Bounty series games which are very much like them. Shadowrun Returns and its DLC Dragonfall are pretty good, a little more on the RPG/adventure game side of things with lots of dialogue trees and story. And there's Skulls of the Shogun too, which is a little closer to Advance Wars - accessible, light on story, solid all around. I'm probably missing a bunch, but that's off the top of my head. Oh, there are the old Shining Force Genesis games as part of the Sega Genesis & Mega Drive Classics.
I was going to mention Invisible Inc. (formerly Incognita) from Klei, the Mark of the Ninja and Don't Starve people. It's a more espionage-based strategy game than RPG, and plays a lot like the X-Com titles with randomly generated floors to be a team of strategically sneaky bastards on. The reason I moved it down here is that they've closed up alpha access for the time being and are going to be releasing in early access later on in the summer sometime. Really fun even in it's current alpha state, and definitely worth another look at when it's back up for sale.

You've made me want to buy the game even more now. The combat looks great.

So it seems like team purple has won this day. Should I still try to craft any more badges tonight, or just save it for the next round?

This is a wonderful and generous gesture, MakeshiftChef, and all the better for it being Divinity: OS that you're bestowing upon some lucky folks.
I'd really love this game to do well, and I feel it will benefit greatly from more 'hype' and love here on GAF and elsewhere. The marketing of D:OS has been a bit low-key, but to know it is to be compelled by it, I think.
Nice one, thanks.

repost:
If you win, you must go to http://www.nosgoth.com/. Create an account with Square Enix. Then I believe you link your account with Steam. Somewhere you enter your code! Sorry, the email instructions are vague! PM me if you are completely stumped.
This is an asymmetric third person shooter based on the legacy of kain/soul reaver franchises. Multiplayer online only. You either play a human vamprie hunter or a bad ass powerful vampire in a 4v4 fight (then switch sides). Very interesting game. You can buy into early access on steam at 50% off (and receive a lot of extras including friend invites) if you don't win the code from this. But at release it will be a free 2 play (very fair f2p monetization, not pay2win. I already have every class unlocked and I don't play often).
Also, just to clarify, this is a steam game. Just need to follow the email instructions.

Divine Divinity, Beyond Divinity and Divinity II are better played in the right order.
Original Sin is a prequel to all Divinity games, so you can play it first and if I'm not mistaken Dragon Commander is supposed to be a spinoff to the main Divinity series

And apparently the teams are set for the whole thing unless you buy/get a token? Valve knows what's up. Making us pay to get on the winning team.
