StarCrawlers http://store.steampowered.com/app/318970/
It's only 33% off, but this game looks amazing.

It was the amount of weeb shit that made it crash.

 

[HoboForEternity]

how is satellite reign btw?

 

[Great Deceiver]

I wanted to get the Street Fighter V bundle with the two season passes. However, Capcom made it so owners of the original game (which I bought full price like a fucking idiot) can't buy the bundle. Very smart! Guess they don't want my money.

 

[Modron]

i just clicked the add all to cart button.

Indeed, that adventure items dlc even on sale is like 8 dollars for crap you can unlock in game. I suggest you use this' http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=584940 run speed multiplier at the bare minimum, also the item editor is nice because the item enhancement is tarded and grindy as fuck.

Can't you remove the SF5 from library to facilitate the buy?

 

[Hirato]

Are the Overlord games good?

No idea, they looked fun, but they're still downloading and I'm more interested in giving StarCrawlers a go right now.

Overlord games are... okay. The third is apparently terrible. I'd just buy the first. I don't think I bothered finishing the second.

It's just the principle of it that's ridiculous really. Buying the entire bundle (game included) would cost about as much as the 2 DLCs combined, plus I can't be assed to deal with this shit. Suits me fine, they don't deserve any more money anyway, fuck them.

 

[Latelistener]

They're just telling you not to buy anything on release, but people are not learning animals.

Anyone played through Jotun and Owlboy care to share some throughts?

Jotun is a fairly simple top-down hack 'n' slash with minor puzzle elements.

It's main gimmick is that it's a "cultural introduction" game, i.e. a simple game that centers around a certain culture and teaches you about it while you're in playing, like Never Alone did with Inuits. This one deals with the Nordic Gods, and features full Icelandic speech (with plenty of subtitle options available).

 

[Ninja Destroyer]

Are the Overlord games good?

The first one with Raising Hell expansion is a very charming little game. It's not hard, but it has a cartoony humour, and nice variety of places to visit. Even though you are playing evil guy, you can still go with the "path of light" and redeem yourself, or be a bloodthirsty warmonger who doesn't value life. You rebuild your castle, and last but not least raise your fellow imp minions. Divided by their use (troopers, fireballers, water, poisonous) you venture through the fantasy land. They are adorable little bastards, making funny faces, drinking beer and smashing everything they see like a living tornado. The sequel isn't so good, but the formula stays mostly the same, so if you are hooked up after finishing the first one I would at least try it, especially for that price. The third part is a mistake and it should never been released, not under Overlord name.

Space Hulk Ascension is -80%

Is Ascension any good? I'm a big fan of the boardgame. Is it better than Deathwatch?

Agreed. The only thing I would add is that even the first game may need a bit of grinding (revisiting an old map) at some point, but it's not too bad.

Lakeview Cabin Collection -80% http://store.steampowered.com/app/361990

This game is a steal at $2. It's a little hard to get into because it overly relies on the player experimenting with everything and observing the results, but once you get into that mindset it gets quite good.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

That sounds pretty neat actually, except there's no lack of introduction to Norse mythology in gaming, so does this do it differently or what?

I didn't play it long enough to see for sure, but if it does anything differently from how other games portray Norse mythology, then it's the fact that it sticks true to the source material. No sugar-coating and no editorial changes for broader public appeal - what you (should) see is what it was/is.

Just okay. It's been a while since I played it, but it's mainly a bunch of facilities you break into for phat cyberlootz in glorious blade-runner aesthetic.
