#14 weekly sales thread (THE RETURN)

[grue]

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.

My picks:

Hyperdimension Neptunia Rebirth 1 and 2 complete bundles for 75% and 71%, respectively. I refuse to play this game.
STALKER bundle with the three games, 81% off.
Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, 75% off, that's like $7.
There's an Indie Humble Bundle coming along. I only identify Nuclear Throne and Octodad there so far.

good picks i like stalker nd mass effect nd most of all neptunia !!! try out this great series if u dont play it yet

[fat lesbian]

definitely get mass effect 1 and 2 if any of u haven't played it! i know it probably can't be spoiled for anyone at this point but im gonna avoid spoiling 2 to not be a dick, but pick the bad ending and just pretend the series ended there and ur better off

[grue]

i thought they changed the ending beecause of the fan outcry

[risbolla]

like mass effect 1 the most ! also 100% orange juice on sale rn i highly recommend get it i will own u in this game

[fat lesbian]

they didn't change it as much as extend it and add an opt out option which was basically them saying "fuck you" to everyone by (DONT READ PAST THIS IF U DONT WANT SPOILERS IDK IF FHIS FORUM HAS SPOILER TAGS) having a hologram of liara being like "we fucked up the entire world by being stupid whiny babies don't do that"

[fat lesbian]

like mass effect 1 the most ! also 100% orange juice on sale rn i highly recommend get it i will own u in this game

do u actually? i feel like 2 was the high point of the series and 1 is so poorly optimized that when i played it on a console for the first time as opposed to on pc like usual it felt like pulling teeth

[risbolla]

ya i like first game best its more ''space opera'' type drama then nr 2 wich i think is like alium dating sim

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is a very good "RPG" FPS. I would highly recommend it to anybody because of the environment, the story, gameplay and atmosphere. Only play it on the hardest setting, it wasn't designed to have difficulties. Anything below the hardest difficulty has the worst artificial difficulty ever.

Don't get this if you have windows 10 though, it doesn't run on it.

i didnt mention this bundle because it's really not my bag. i see that some people still play rust though, and for $5 you get that early access so that might be up your alley

i did play tharsis once, though, i was so intrigued by the concept that i bought the damn game. it was WAY overpriced for what it is. i heavily recommend trying it, though, it's one of those "everything is gone to shit" kinda games with an ominous impending doom kinda feeling to the story.

Imma get mass effect 1 & 2 4 shur

[Relaps]

I did it

i have the fancy lookin mass effect set for ps3

i never beat 1 but i enjoyed it, i feel the same as niki in that the menus on the console (your inventory filling with gun mods and it taking a few seconds to dump each and every one) are a chore. but i enjoy the story and the originality a lot so i want to finish 1 before i move onto the others

[Ben]

that being said wow stalker is great, if you even suspect that youll like it i think you should buy it. ive only played shadow of chernobyl at any length, never owned clear skies, but theyre all very well crafted and neat. maybe getting some age at this point but not too bad imo
