That looks like photoshopped Emilia Clarke, and I'm ok with that.

That's because it is a photoshopped Emilia Clarke!

Also, I've nothing for January's thread title, but February's had better be 'STEAM | February 2016 - The answer lies in the heart of SteamGAF', or else we have failed.

Speaking of January's thread, only Dogg and myself doing recommendations? There's The Witness, Darkest Dungeon, Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak, Resident Evil Zero and Rise of the Tomb Raider coming in January. If you've got anything to say about those, write something up!

Be careful looking at the overall reviews for a game, be sure to look at the most recent ones.

I was having some issues with a game I will not name, went to the store page and two pages full of negative reviews despite the reviews showing "Very Positive"

 

[Shadownet]

that just cause 3 giveaway may as well be a new thread for the entire gaf to solve

Does everyone get to share via family sharing if it is solved?

Not doing Watch Dogs any more.

Too much fucking around and people getting upset.

Is Farcry 3 worth £3.74? It's pretty cheap and I know the Ubisoft stuff is only on sale for shorter periods. I'm too cheap to pay for FC4

And thanks for the GAF group invite, I now have Steam friends! ha

Is any game not worth £3.74?

I have beaten Far Cry 3, and it's fun until the novelty of it wears off. It has a terrible save system, a terrible story, a confusing skill system, an annoying crafting system and is too long for it's own good, but there is some fun sandbox gaming in it.

 

[Tizoc]

Can anyone recommend any good CO-OP games on sale for under £5-10? I was looking to pick up a title for me and my buddy to play together while I return to University.

Dungeons and Dragons Mystara
Metal Slug games
King of Fighters games

Off the top of my head atm.

Yes.

Thanks!

Seemts it was true that they remove it after the company ceased to exist...

Sad.

Damn I should've bought it sooner >_<

 

[Se7enSword]

That was fast.

I was thinking of buying it. Oh well

 

[Hektor]

Didn't those games made it to steam like a few weeks ago?

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Yeah. It kinda seems maybe they thought to rescue the company like that. There even was a Code of Princess entry in SteamDB...

I had no idea the company was shutting down. Blah. 700+ people on my friends list and no heads-up. Thanks, "fellow" game collectors.

Edit: Bought the games on Humble.

JaseC, help a brother out with WatchDoggie. I'll pay you.

Nah. Never done it before, and it seems like quite a hassle.

 

[Chance Hale]

Will trade dick picks for fish games.

AoW 3 - Better tactical combat
Endless Legend - Better world building 4X

If you want fantasy Civ, get Endless Legends. If you want fantasy world conquest via tactical combat, get AoW 3.

And honestly, I'd just get the base game of either, it will entertain you for plenty long enough until the other stuff is cheaper. For that matter, you could get the base games of both for the cost of the full versions of either.

Could you provide a gameplay vid for AoW3's combat? I'm not too big on tactical and strategy stuff :X
edit: or to be more precise, which game is eaiser to pick up and play, could you provide gameplay vids showcasing that at least?

 

[Deques]

Already? Damn, I didn't buy it

[CecilRousso]

I always thought that the Age of Wonders games were more like Heroes of Might & Magic rather then like the Civilization games? And Civ and HOMM aren't really close at all.

 

[JaseC]

Already? Damn, I didn't buy it

Get them while you can.

 

[Deques]

Get them while you can.

A bit too expensive for games I probably wont play any time soon

 

[Ban Puncher]

"I missed out nooooooooooo"

"Here you are."

"But that's too much nooooooooooo"

Too much whining from me I guess

 

[Monooboe]

So do any of you have any gaming New Years Resolutions? I think I put up some goals for me, like I can't have over 1333 games, I'm at 1298 now, so that would restrict me pretty much from all bundles and just buy what I really want to play and then to get to 33% average achievements done... hmh feels like it's the every year, "play more buy less".XD

I'm new to PC gaming so mine is the opposite of yours; to buy lots of games and not play them

In a few years I imagine it will be reversed

 

[JaseC]

Nope.

I'm just going with my old one again: The only exception to buying games I won't play immediately are 2-3 games each sale.

I'm still only just over 100 games, with my Steam account that I've hade since 2007 . But that's with me removing some unneccesary games also though. And I haven't registered more then 10% of my Humble Bundle buys on Steam.

 

[YianGaruga]

The games are also available individually on humble

That would be mine as well but with 900. Like with all of my resolutions though it probably won't last

Although this time it really will because I'm moving to Austin next week and will have a shittier job in comparison and be in school full time so there will be little extra money to buy games with, lol.

Thanks for the shot, sorry about your troubles.

It has to do more with Christmas than the lack of dailies I would say.

 

[Snakethesniper]

The only active GMG coupon is the 20% one or there's a 25% too?

 

[YianGaruga]

Regarding dailies, it's kind of useless information without knowing how Summer sales usually compare to Winter sales. For all we know Winter sales are usually even better.

 

[Tizoc]

The only active GMG coupon is the 20% one or there's a 25% too?

There is a 25% one usable on a set number of games including RE0 HD and Dragon's Dogma.

Has anyone played Aviary Attorney?
I'm a HUGE Phoenix Wright fan, so it catches my eye.
Is it any good?
