I'd like hereby to express my thanks towards the esteemed community members who advised me against buying Civ V - Brave New World. I reinstalled Civ IV and a single scenario from Warlords (Chinese unification) has already given me more than all the hours I spent trying to get to like Civ V. So, thanks again. I don't know how it happens that I can forget how truly shit a game is to the extent that I'm considering purchasing an expansion to it.

I dunno why everyone is saying non-lethal is unrewarding. It's the only rewarding path, simply because it poses a bit of challenge. Killing enemies is too easy to be genuinely rewarding.
Like I said, it is easy either way. It just takes longer to do shit

It's not nearly as easy. Some enemies have overlapping patrols and knocking someone out then grabbing their body and getting out of there takes a lot longer than stabbing them and disappearing while their corpse disintegrates. Then there's tallboys who AFAIK cannot be knocked out, only killed, so you can't stroll around at your leisure in levels where they're present. Non-lethal is more time consuming since you have to hide corpses but it's not the only difference.

To me it was easy at level where getting easier doesn't even matter. I recommend anyone to go full murder mode

The end of every place
is FEAR worth the 2,25 ?(-75%)

I enjoyed it when it came out, but tried playing it a while ago and it hadn't aged well IMO.

Tropico trilogy (first 3 games) is 2.99 http://store.steampowered.com/sub/12169/
I've enjoyed them all, currently playing 5.

SS2 is 1.49 http://store.steampowered.com/app/238210/
Before anyone runs out and gets Tropico on Steam, it's on Bundlestars Reboot Bundle 4.0 with 5 other games for the same price of $2.99, though Bundlestars does do some regional pricing.

Good way to get herpes, too. N-e-ways, I bought base Dishonored. Since I might not like it I held the DLC off for another time. Only one day left of new sales I will hope beyond hope MMX makes it but I doubt it.

Well considering I can't buy the DLC on its own I'll just have to settle for it.

Well, you can, but its' the typical Bethesda pricing dumbfuckery, which means that the DLC costs more than the bundle of game plus DLC.

No, I meant that I can't buy the DLC only and skip the base game. Well, okay, I could but I obviously wouldn't be able to play it.

Every discounted game I've been interested in (Broken Sword, Tesla Effect, AoW3, DS2) has still been noticeably more expensive than a region free key from an independent seller. I've only picked up the Blackwell bundle at 90% off.
