STEAM SUMMER SALE! #11 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - grue - 06-23-2016
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/

https://www.humblebundle.com
My picks:
STEAM SUMMER SALE SPECIAL PICKS (gauntlet-style):
Enter the Gungeon (20%). Topdown rogue-like shooter with very solid and fun mechanics.
Firewatch (33%). Interactive story about a man who runs away from the city, and from his problems.
All Tomb Raider Games (several %'s). I recommend Tomb Raider 2 and 3, and also Tomb Raider (2013).
GTA V (40%). Best in the series so far.
Stardew Valley (20%). Harvest Moon / Animal Crossing-like farming game.
Garry's Mod (75%). A game engine with tons of games to experiment via Steam Workshop.
Tabletop Simulator (50%). Come play with me and Ben.
Terraria (50%). The game won't stop updating. Holy shit.

AssCreed 2 is worth it alone
RE: #10 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - Tempest - 06-23-2016
tbh i really liked ass creed 1, but 2 is definitely great.
RE: #10 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - Tempest - 06-23-2016
also payday 2 can be fun but the developer for the last year and a half has had the biggest boner for making stealth almost impossible; most missions with stealth possibilities are insanely hard and time-consuming to do stealth and any time anyone comes up with a reliable method (even if it's not a cheesy method) they patch it out.
but matterialize and i play it sometimes it's p. fun pick it up nerds

the steam summer sale started fuckers
you should check this reddit thread for the real lowdown, it highlights a lot of the deals that don't get much exposure on the front page and also there's a handful of bundles that for some reason are not advertised very well on the steam client: if you already own a game from the bundle it adjusts the price down and some of the bundles are cool
i got the jrpg bundle, tropico 5, interstelleria, and i didn't buy it but i decided to .... try........... huniecam studio because i wasn't sure if it was worth 4.50 and tbh it was fun but definitely not super worth, i played it twice and i got the best trophy you can get for getting 100k fans (this is nsfw) on my second try. it was short and i have no desire to go back now but goddamn it was difficult, you have to be super efficient to get that trophy

i can't afford anything right now which is... disappointing. getting those trading cards tho :/
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #10 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - fat lesbian - 06-29-2016
also tempest wasn't payday 2 recently kinda fixed w removal of micro transactions and other bad shit? or did i dream that
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #10 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - Tempest - 06-29-2016
the microtransactions were really the only issue that most people would have imo and yeah they actually bought themselves out from under EA or whoever was running them before so they are undoing all the shit they didn't want in the first place like microtransactions
my complaint with payday 2 is that they keep making it harder and harder to do stealth stuff without a full group of highly practiced players, and that's my favorite part of payday 2, but it's still mad fun. lot of DLC but eyyy it's a video game.
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #11 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - grue - 06-29-2016
main post updated because there's no point in making a new thread while the summer sale is up
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #11 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - fat lesbian - 06-29-2016
did they fix the issue where any amount of touching anything on a controller at all was liable to make the game crash immediately
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #11 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - Tempest - 06-29-2016
i have no idea i usually unplug my controller when i'm playing games i don't use it on because it always seems to cause problems for shit
RE: STEAM SUMMER SALE! #11 weekly sales thread (summertime 8|) - fat lesbian - 06-29-2016
