  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Sale ends today, right? How long till it's over. I know there's gonna be some daily deals left, but how long till everything else goes back to regular price?

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Sale ends in about 32 hours.

  • if u do convins fashist akwaint hiz faec w pavment neway jus 2 b sur

    I'm still pissed that, for some reason, Arkham City is "blocked in my region".

  • Champion of the Whales

    Thats because you're a dodgy Slav!

  • One foot in front of the other, every day.

    Perhaps it's because Eastern European politics fail to represent the people to such a degree that vigilanteism might be the only option for a future not based on tenuous ethnic/cultural divisions? 


    What I mean to say, Milos, is that I think you should become Batman. It's for the best.

    For all this time, I was only searching for a good reason to do exactly that.


    Now I have a reason.


    *swish*

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    I think those indie game deals have been on the whole time anyway; they just highlight different groups of games on the frontpage or something.

  • 5 bucks for Just Cause 2? I haven't bought anything this sale, but I might have to get that.

  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!

    Whoo ten buck for recettear. Capitalism ho, bitches.

  • "I've come to the conclusion that this is a VERY STUPID IDEA."

    My haul:



    • Rock of Ages, even though my computer can't really run it.

    • Bastion, which I can actually play.

  • One foot in front of the other, every day.

    What we need to do now is combine Racettear and Mount & Blade, so we can feud while we appreciate capital.

    Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams 40% off
    Wait, that's out? I may have to get it just because Machinae Supremacy...


    Edit: Also at $7.49, The Witcher 2 is mighty tempting, even though I bought the first one in the Summer Sale and haven't touched it.

  • One foot in front of the other, every day.

    The Witcher 2 at under $8 is a massive steal. It's not necessarily for everyone, but if it is for you, it's a game like no other. 

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    ^I picked it up along with Dark Souls on Amazon.


    How many Alexbux did I earn?

    if it is for you, it's a game like no other.


    The same could be said of all videogames.

    Enough to purchase the service of five German or ten Italian mercenaries for a week, or otherwise outfit yourself with the requisite equipment to get bludgeoned to death by furious men-at-arms when your commander deems you expendable as a mere irregular. 


    Honestly, I suggest banditry. 



    The same could be said of all videogames.



    Another game that's definitely for me is War of the Roses, but it's quite a bit like Mount & Blade. There are differences, of course, but as much as Roses appeals to my interests, it's not as overwhelmingly unique or dare I say important as The Witcher 2. 


    There really is no other game like The Witcher 2. It is unique. Not everyone will enjoy it, and that's a legitimate factor of subjectivity, and it's not as though it's perfect by any stretch of the imagination. But it tells a great story with a good cast of characters in a very conventional manner, despite being a video game -- and it succeeds. All the half-baked storytelling of vidya history pretty much leads up to The Witcher 2, which is the best example to my mind of a conventional story told via a video game. Everything fits into place really well, the whole thing is paced effectively and the characters are dripping with excess humanity. 


    Like I said, there are a fair few games that could be said to be "for" me, and not everyone likes The Witcher 2. But to my mind, The Witcher 2 stands out even amongst my other dearly-held favourites like Dark Souls, Mount & Blade, Jedi Outcast, Tales of Phantasia and so on and so forth.

    @MadassAlex:

    I've no doubt. That said, I'd like to play the first one first, and I haven't even started that. There will be at least two Steam sales between now and the absolute earliest I can imagine playing it, and it's perfectly possible it'll be even cheaper by then. (I picked up the first one for $2.50 after all.)

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    So, just because I have to say it, Bastion is both a blast to play and an excellent example of how narration in a game (and, in spots, integration of gameplay and story) can be done very, very well.

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Steam is not connecting.  Again.


    I know I should have no problems connecting to Steam from here.  I've been on Steam multiple times over the course of the semester, from my apartment.  And I've never had a problem until now.


    It's the traffic.  Seriously.

    Hey Lazuli, accept my friend request already (I'm Indomitus Crimsoni). >:(

    How do I uninstall Steam but leave the games alone so that I can do a fresh reinstall?


    Or are the servers just that clogged up?  I can't log into Steam, again.


    If only developers made smaller games, the servers would be less clogged.

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    ^I think you can just make a backup of your steamapps folder, reinstall, and paste it back where it was.
