Deus Ex The Fall has 100% thumbs down on steam, that's really something. Even Bad Rats has 80% up.

Still bought it!

 

[OrlanisWorks]

What the hell, Fallout new Vegas UE has always been 5$ before in steam summer sales. This is bullshit. I wanted to stock up to resell.

Yeah, it's pretty sucky. Still, standalone for 2.50 is really good. DLC be damned.

 

[Atraveller]

X Rebirth isn't much better 96% negative.

I have 2.5 dollars in my steam wallet, but I didn't give in to the "+1".

Still bought it!

*avatar quote*

 

[Sarcasm]

So what is the verdict on the nether?

 

[Divius]

Just a gratitude for awesome and helpful community. (Didn't know what to get but as far as i know everyone loves Skyrim and Badrats)

Good stuff! Entered for one of them.

 

[Salsa]

you know despite having 950 games on Steam now I still don't get that "collection" or "ownership" feel of just buying something to have it.

like for example I have retail copies of Mass Effect 1 and 2 and Fallout 3, and own neither on Steam. And they work fine. And I own every Fallout on Steam except for 3 so my library is "incomplete" yet I dont have any urge to buy it. Im strangely proud of myself (or rather feel sane and safe) for not reaching that impulse-buying stage of just getting stuff to add to some sort of imaginary virtual collection. Fact is I played those games and im not gonna play them again.

 

[Sarquiss_]

Fallout 3 technically does but it's inert; New Vegas is Steamworks.

Thanks for replying everyone So even when GFWL dies I should still be able to play Fallout 3

I really got to start playing games I buy :|

 

[CecilRousso]

If you need something cheap to fulfill your trading card itch then Defy Gravity is your man (unless you already have it) at 90% off.

Nah, I only craft badges for games I actually like.

 

[Lain]

The 75% discount is equal to what existing owners of DE:HR and The Missing Link receive.

Unless you're European, then the discount is 80%, making it 1€ cheaper. I still find it funny how during sales featuring DE:HR the discount reverts to a worse deal.

 

[catabarez]

So you can't use the market if you use the M&M promotion?

I bought it anyway!

Spoiler

it was too hard to resist and it has cards, at least, if it ends up unplayable

 

[Kiriku]

Don't you try to lure us into buying something and not waiting for the dailies... Just joking, wishlisted!

Haha, a daily deal sure would be something! And thanks.

 

[JaseC]

I believe they once answered this in the official FAQ saying that the DE will be exclusive to the current-gen consoles.
According to some comparisons the DE has some slight advantages in terms of texture quality and Laras Face looks different but other than that differences seem minor to me.
With a capable machine and everything maxed the PC Version still looked fine to me despite being the non-definitive edition.

I'm sure it'll come to the PC eventually. You'll notice that the only question that addresses platform availability is "Is Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition available for the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3?", and Squeenix later said "At this time a PC update is not planned" (emphasis my own).

 

[Jafku]

Gonna buy Deus Ex in the morning

 

[Yakkue]

The classic Fallout pack didn't even get a discount ffs.

Yeah, really disappointed Guess I'll only get Fallout 1 this sale, can't afford 2 right now as well.

Fact is I played those games and im not gonna play them again.

One thing I learned is that there is a lot of different tastes. Some double-dip, others triple-dip, some collect games, some collect and play them, and so on.

I also have some PC physical copies and I never felt the need to have them on Steam, I did however, bought the same game I once had on console but on PC for a greater experience in visuals for example.

I think some GAFfer used it to buy Stanley Parable.

EDIT: Ah, for the Market, sorry.

 

[dirtywhirlwind]

So, do owners of Deus Ex and/or Missling Link get a steeper discount for Director's Cut? Or is it 75% for everybody?

 

[Corpekata]

Quoting for new page.

I used it to buy the Outlast DLC and I can use the market just fine currently.

 

[Arthea]

Someone educate me on TR dlcs. Skins just change outlook, add no perks, I assume?

well none of em make the game good

That was helpful, thanks

I meant the Community Market

Stage 1: denial

 

[Shub-Niggurath]

So... is Nether good? It has bad reviews on the store page

 

[Deques]

Sadly no further discount

Mass Effect Collection for 7 €. DAAAMN, that was an instabuy for me. I'm glad I missed out on the PSN Flash Deal a month ago. And yeah, the PSN bundle also had ME3 in it, but that game is getting bargain prices all over the place on PC, so it's okay after all.

So currently I've bought:

- DmC: Devil May Cry (10 €. #1 on my wishlist, great game btw.)
- Assassin's Creed III (5 €. #2 on my wishlist. Need to play AC Revelations first, though)
- Mass Effect Collection (7 €. Bought it spontaneously, first time in this sale)

What I'm planning, but I'll wait until the last sale day or until it's daily/flash/vote:

- Enslaved: Odyssey to the West Premium Edition (Currently at 5 €)
- Pac-Man Championship Edition DX+: All You Can Eat Complete Edition (Currently 3,74 €)

 

[JaseC]

The skins are just cosmetic, yeah. The only piece of DLC that adds any sort of actual SP content is Tomb of the Lost Adventurer.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

So, is the Summer Sale Meta Game crooked or what? It looks like every day another team wins by far. This looks highly suspicious.

The first two days were fairly close calls until the late part of the day.

As for it being rigged. Well, Reddit hatched a plan

Thing is if Valve were the ones rigging it so each team won twice they could easily switch the results to match the Reddit plan to make it seem like Reddit were the ones who rigged it.

It has killed the prices of the Summer trading cards though.

 

[kulapik]

Is New Vegas scary? I want to play it but I'm such a wuss >-<

 

[Salsa]

What I'm planning, but I'll wait until the last sale day or until it's daily/flash/vote:

you are a fine man

 

[Corpekata]

I meant the Community Market

That is what I meant. I just put up an extra Skullgirls card.

 

[cheezcake]

Holy shit Team Pink going ham

Edit: Ok something seems broken with the daily points

 

[wetflame]

The skins are just cosmetic, yeah. The only piece of DLC that adds any sort of actual SP content is Tomb of the Lost Adventurer.

I've heard that tomb is very short and not really worth paying for if that's all your after, and the multiplayer is also dead.

 

[MadGear]

The skins are just cosmetic, yeah. The only piece of DLC that adds any sort of actual SP content is Tomb of the Lost Adventurer.

And don't even get that one. Glitched out on me and couldn't even finish it. Not much of a puzzle anyway.

 

[jonno394]

I've held off buying anything in the sale as my backlog is already far too big, but tempted by Fallout NV (even thought it's not as cheap as I hoped) and Metro 2033.

Just seen that Mass Effect 3 is £2.99 over at gamefly so can have the whole trilogy for just over £8, extremely tempted.

 

[catabarez]

That is what I meant. I just put up an extra Skullgirls card.

I just tested it and it worked.

 

[kiri]

You mean the GAF steam group? I can invite you. As far as the community, just participate in our monthly steam threads, where you can see rhaknar throwing away all his money on giveaways, and JaseC showing off his 3k+ games.

That would be great, my user id is kirusato.

I shall be taking part in the steam threads from now!!

Nope, I just sold a bunch of cards and crafted another badge.

Edit: Ah, looks like you got it worked out.

 

[Salsa]

kinda weird this late but: is anyone interested in a Project Zomboid 4-pack?

I remember really liking that old early prototype but kinda call it off once the dude lost his laptop and all that went down, but it looks like the game is in good shape now?

edit: eh I can probably wait for a bigger discount

 

[MisterM]

If Transistor wins (it probably won't) do I get it and tap out of the Steam sale or hold off in case something else I'd like goes on sale?

D:

 

[jediyoshi]

Damn I want castle crashers for 1.50, but I'm sure transistor group will win

 

[Sub Zero]

Is New Vegas scary? I want to play it but I'm such a wuss >-<

This thing is more scary than RE, Silent Hill, Amnesia and Outlast combined. Trust me

 

[Card Boy]

I love Deus Ex but do i want to pay $2.50 for The Fall for deal with this shit?

(this is what happens when you shoot and is meant to be some fake broken ass recoil)

 

[Starwolf_UK]

That is what I meant. I just put up an extra Skullgirls card.

Thing is the card verification does not kick in immediately. In my case I added £4 to my wallet and the next day I was hit by the card verification (which I can not complete due to not being able to see pending transactions, if it only wanted one number I could have figured it out...but since it makes two transactions it is impossible) which stopped me using the market.

 

[Arthea]

Thanks, thought so, but it's good to be sure

gifs

(this is what happens when you shoot and is meant to be some fake broken ass recoil)

oh my... Maybe I won't try to play it after all.

Ugh, haven't slept much and I got locked into a trance of watching those gifs for 30 seconds and I feel nauseous.
