#1 Weekly Sales Thread [2016] [Gone Sexual!] [In The Hood] - grue - 04-19-2016
Hey guys, this is the generic text for a possible series of threads featuring weekly sales to keep an eye on. The gist of this thread is to point out shit that is on sale for the financially disadvantaged of us. I will focus on games because really who cares about the rest, but sometimes there are critical book or movie sales that might be interesting to buy.
This thread is meant for the sharing of sweet, tasty cheap stuff. Keep the more in-depth games discussion to the "What Are You Playing This Month" thread. I don't want the threads to become redundant, and this weekly sales thing will only continue if you guys show any interest in it - if not, I'll just can it.
Anyway, if you know something, share it itt.
The threads are weekly because the steam sales are weekly.
Possible sources of items on sale:
http://store.steampowered.com/
https://www.gog.com/
http://www.greenmangaming.com/
https://www.humblebundle.com
My picks:
Sins Of A Solar Empire is 75% off on Steam. It's a space game and widely considered a good one aswell. I tried playing it once but holy shit is it slow. Looked pretty good for its time, though.
Guacamelee! is 80% off on Steam. I've never played and it's not my thing it but it was hyped when it came out.
Journey of a Roach is 90% off on Steam. Daedalic Entertainment is weird. They make well-rated point and click games and one of them was the infamous Deponia series, which I own. Going by Deponia I can tell you that it was a good point-and-click game, with fantastic artwork and lousy, offensive storywriting. I might pick this one up, if only because it's so cheap. There are other Daedalic games on sale (they do that a lot) and this is the hihest rated one.
Airscape is 85% off on Steam. This game became a talking point by the second half of 2015 because of how poorly it sold. The Dev made a blog post about it which was widely discussed and ironically gave the game a lot of the exposition it needed. On all accounts, it's a solid hardcore platformer with nice art.
The Leadwerks Game Engine is 80% off on Steam, along with plenty of DLC. I don't know shit about game development but a deal is a deal.
Schein is 75% off on Steam. Never played it, know nothing about it, looks pretty cool.
Enola is 90% off on Steam. Never heard of this game either, but it looks cool and I'll look up reviews to see if it's worth the buy.
Humble Telltale Bundle is up. It features Telltale games, funnily enough.
The Humble Staff Pick looks pretty awesome, and it's my personal favourite deal of the week. It features Chivalry, Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons, Tropico 5 and Farenheit: Indigo Prophecy. For like $7. There's like 3 hours left to go, though!
Torchlight 2 is 75% off on the Bundle Store. Might pick this one up.
Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate 2 and Icewind Dale are 60% of on GoG.

ive played guacamelee, it's really fun but sort of repetitive in a way. the aesthetic is cool though, and i liked discovering things and solving puzzles and etc
also torchlight is really cool but i havent played the second. those are the two i may recommend here

I'm illiterate so I couldn't think/find a fast way to add the pricing to the games. It shows in € for me but that would only speak to a small ammount of us and to be francis I didn't have the willpower to convert every single price by hand.

I recommend Guacamelee myself
I also want to add that Nintendo's been having a Super Spring Sale for Wii U and 3DS games, but it's ending quite soon so check it out quick!

I hate Assassin's Creed with a passion, so as cool as I think Shadows of Mordor could be, I can't bring myself to fuck with it.
RE: #1 Weekly Sales Thread [2016] [Gone Sexual!] [In The Hood] - GeorgeBubbinzInSpace - 04-25-2016
well when it came out I was really wanting it because I watched some streams and it looked really cool honestly, but I didn't have the money then. now I do and I just know I won't play it once I have it WHY AM I SUCH A PIECE OF SHIT CONSUMER COCKSUCKER

Shadow of Mordor is fucking great go buy it
It's more like batman than asscreed. AC sucks because it's slow and boring. SoM is constantly fresh brawling combat and strategy
