The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

[Multi-headed Cow]

Yeah, amount of gold (And relative to the distance/difficulty of the thing) and class of characters factors in. If the gold is available you don't have to be TOO stingy with putting bounties up, since the gold goes to buying hero upgrades which eventually works back to you as taxes anyway.
Except for goddamn elf gambling houses and brothels. Reason why I avoid elves except on a few missions where gold is the objective, since getting the gold by gambling is usually easier.

Also Ashery, once you finish the official missions be sure to check out the random mission generator. Majesty 1 (With the expansion) has one of the better random mission generators I've seen. Good degree of customization. I played it like crazy and re-played yearly for quite a while.

Good to hear that it's a quality generator, as those things can be iffy at times in other games (I'm looking at you, HoMM3). I'll probably wind up playing it sooner rather than later, too, as my damn BG torrents are going at a whopping 12.5kb/sec average. Shouldn't even fucking need the expansions, either, as I've no interest in playing them, but the fucking SCS mods, which I consider to be the most important of the ones I'm planning on installing, require random files that can't be found in the base games.

Mmm finally, get to see what's the big deal about this CK2.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

4 hours of EU3 later and I'm still bewildered CK2 ISN'T HELPING!

Initial gut feeling is I like CK2 more, though.

 

[Hoaxmetal]

Hearts of Iron is the real deal when it comes to Paradox difficulty :<

 

[IDtenT]

I forgot about the sale due to workload and illness. Can anyone tell me what the daily sales were?

King Arthur series 75% off, Magicka series 75% off, Mount and Blade series 75% off, Crusader Kings series 75% off.

 

[Metro]

Don't worry, too much, it'll all be on sale again in two weeks.

 

[Angthoron]

Is Velvet Assassin worth ~2e?

 

[Bruticis]

I bought it but only to pad my count. How bad can it be for that price?

[Menckenstein]

Velvet Assassin is what a woman with AIDS calls her vagina.

 

[Morgoth]

Velvet Assassin. You play some introverted and abused spy bitch that is gonna sneak towards Germans and suffocate them between her thighs.

Actually, it was quite fun for a while. But this whole revenge thing is so retarded, it could only come from a guilt-ridden German developer.

Does her head stay upright, or is the FOV fixed to staring at the ground?

Thanks for saving the deuros!

 

[Metro]

Looks like Rune could be coming to Steam!

 

[Morgoth]

Rune is now available on Steam.

So I heard good things about it. What does the hivemind think demand?

 

[Metro]

Great game but... wait two weeks and it'll probably be 75% off. Also comes with multiplayer and... funny enough... acheesements.

 

[Gord]

Fun game, but I agree with Metro on the price.
Don't know if I'd still pay 8 let alone 10 bucks for it.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Spore is 75% off and I'm sorta tempted because I was always vaguely interested in flying around looking at multiheaded dick creatures slapping ass and thigh.
Don't do it cow, DON'T DO IT.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

Don't do it cow, DON'T DO IT.

you will not glorify the gaben with this

even fear 3 will be a better purchase

 

[Kane]

Buy RUNE bros. It's metal and GOG.

 

[Metro]

Spore is shit as is Darkspore. MHC you need to start playing the half dozen games you got in the last week instead of buying new ones!

 

[Kane]

It's also important to note that the 4pack@US of Darkspore is cheaper than a single copy @ EU. EA is at it again.

 

[20 Eyes]

Spore? More like Bore. The game is ass.

It's all down hill from the cell phase (which isn't anything special). It might've been cool if EA didn't see the potential Pokemon dollars.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Don't do it cow, DON'T DO IT.

But I already have F3AR for under five dollars from a previous sale! GABEN WANTS ME TO HAVE SPORE.

I... I play videogames! I do!
Should keep banging my head against EU3 until I figure it out though.
