The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

Got


which is only 7 bucks in my country, thanks Koei

and



even though I haven't finished Yakuza 0.

I just realized that my most favorite 4 games of this year are all Japanese games (RE2, DMC5, Sekiro and Phoenix Wright trilogy), hope I can keep that streak

Freaking Russkies!

I'm in Eastern Europe too and my financial situation is as shitty as that of a Russian but I get German prices.

Also, the metagame is so bugged, it's not funny.

Great idea for a $10 DLC.

Don't forget green and yellow ones. I'm for the green and yellow is for DXHR lovers out there.

 

[cvv]

Still haven't bought anything.

2 days, 2 hours and counting.

Claim 100/12120 Points Now

Good show, Steam, you fucking pricks. It's day THREE, so my boost capacity should be AT LEAST 300, really, more, because I spent like 10 EUR which should bring another 10 x 121 points.

What a shitshow.

How do you do that Steam embedded linky thing?

copy url and post it under "media" button, like a video link

Edit: God damn. Going through ridiculous mental gymnastics to figure out how much I want to spend based on potential maximum coupons earned over the sale, since it's most effective to buy during the first day to increase your "Earnings" over the event.
Right now I'd get 3 coupons over the sale if I spent $0. If I bought Dark Souls Remaster, Project Warlock, and Amid Evil I'd spend $26 but earn 6 coupon over the sale, essentially meaning those 3 games would total $11 which I'm perfectly content with.

I remember there was a time I was pretty excited about these sales.

Not a single -75% discount on my wishlist yet again.

Fucking decline.

Since I received money from two rebates as prepaid debit cards that expired in a few months and didn't want to deal with getting uneven amounts off of them, I dumped them into Steam wallet funds (I also had a few others I dumped into Amazon gift codes). Between that and putting off new shit for a while, I've had a larger than typical haul this time.

Kingmaker+DLC
Kingdom Come +DLC
Vigilantes
Atom
Divinity OS2
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

I've realized that gives me enough points to get a 5 buck off coupon. May buy Ritual of the Night with that.

Is this better then the first game?

More of the same I would say with some minor tweaks,if you didn't like the first one I don't think this one will change your mind

 

[mastroego]

With that discount it would be a reasonable purchase.

 

[Matalarata]

Ritual of the Night

I'm on the fence myself and that coupon is burning a hole in my wallet... Could you, dunno, take the plunge and post your detailed impression, preferably in less than 18 hours?

could be worse
-75% and still more than 20 bucks

The first Tomb Raider reboot was new and different, worth playing.

Every sequel since then has been EXACTLY THE SAME GAME except without all the stuff that made the first game compelling.

Rise of the Tomb Raider my arse.

Don't waste your money.

Already got it by the time you posted.

At the second boss right now, who is kicking my ass on normal difficulty. So far so good. Opening stage was a bit easy, but after that the difficulty spikes up to what I'd expect from the early game. There's a high degree of polish here, and there's lots of little things that add up. One thing I would have never thought to ask for but love a lot is that, if you enter a room transition barrier and hold the opposite direction after the screen goes black, you return to the room you were in, with all the enemies respawned, without having to go to the room on the other side. That level of detail shows someone put a good deal of thought into the game's mechanics.

On the downside, it has that problem 3D sidescrolls have where the hitboxes aren't 100% clear a lot of the time. Game might be short, since I'm at over 10% map completion less than 80 minutes in, but I have no idea if there's any second castle or whatnot.

I'm waiting for the Winter Sales.

Worry not! As soon as you get to the medusa head tower (or whatever devilish thing he placed in its stead) you will spend hours going up and down in the same 1% of the map. True story!

Fucking thing finally unbugged itself. today I have 2000 in max boost capacity.

So, where the heck is the media button?

 

[Curratum]

The two little film clippings, right of the insert image picture icon with the mountains.

 

[Yosharian]

Never mind, my brain is not working today, I thought you were talking about something else.

 

[Matalarata]

deuxhero RoTN is nice but surprisingly easy... You can unlock Hard and Nightmare sifficulty in NG+ but they will be unlocked from the start if you name your profile NIGHTMARE, I will probably restart on hard since I played very little up untill now.

I'm going to buy UnReal World, because such a project of pure, unfiltered, finnish autism has to be supported.
