Anything good on the Halloween Sale thing?

I guess Murdered: Soul Suspect wasn't that bad if you like Story-based Detective stuff like L.A. Noire and it's 90% Off:


What about Call of Cthulhu?


What/how is this? Anyone tried it?

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Try The Detail if you want noir detective stuff. I played the first 2 eps years ago so I can't recall how the writing is, but its presentation was pretty okay.

I would like to recommend the following game:



Released very recently, it is an action-adventure game with focus on puzzles and good pixel-art. It's made from a Tainwanese company which seems to be quite good. Still, expect 0 marketing ever.

Imperiums: Greek Wars, "a unique combination of turn-based 4X and historical grand strategy with a mythological twist", from the developers of Aggressors: Ancient Rome:

It's really a pity, that they had a dispute with the publisher and Aggressors didn't get as much post-lunch support as it would have deserved.

And once again fuck the sales.
As I said before -73% for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, ok, decent sale one might think, but when they set the freaking starting price at OVER ONE HUNDRED dollars who the fuck cares about the discount.
This needs to be discounted like 85% to even start looking like a normally priced game.

So fuck it again, I just got Tabletop Simulator for the full price of 20$ because I wanted it.
Fuck it.

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is.
Guise any Steam power users here?

Is there a log of my Steam notifications? Like when you follow certain games you get a notification (kindda like an achievement pop-up) when there's something new going on. I miss like half of them bc I'm usually in the middle of the game and they disappear super fast. It's starting to piss me off. Thx.

Not sure how to get notifications only but you can click your account name drop down menu and go to activity which will include subscribed alerts in addition to friend and personal activity (id est screenshots, favorites, achievements, et cetera). Just remove all your friends to get what you want :D.

You could also go to the News section select the My games from the channel list to filter news to stuff you own granted this might not be as select as you want either.

Thank you, looks lovely and reminds me somewhat of Ori and the Blind Forest. Since pretty-looking artistic platformers with nice music are my newfound love, I've purchased it.

Damned if I know, sorry buddy. I don't follow games so I don't get news popups about 'em. My guess is they'd show on your "Activity" page if you're following them, but I don't know for sure.

Well, well.

Shadow of the Tomb Rider is like -73% for the complete package. Which still amounts to roughly 30$ which I deem too high for a popamole.
Still I'm tempted, as I have the other 2, I overall enjoyed them, and it irks me not to have them all.

A thing I wanted to buy is Tabletop Simulator.
I forgot the sale is horror themed, though, so sadly it's not discounted.
I might just pick it anyway.

It's worth it (tabletop sim that is). It does go on sale for 10 bucks pretty frequently though.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut is 90% off. It's a single game consisting of three games that were a trilogy stitched together. Definitely worth it at this price IMO.

I don't think this version comes with two-handed weapons though.
