Has steam done something dodgy to their user reviews system? Nearly every game that I look at has recent reviews far more positive than its total average.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
None of the Final Fantasy games were on sale during the recent fall sale. I'm hoping they go on sale for the upcoming winter sale though, which starts on the 19th.
Sometimes Square Enix themselves also discounts the game (buying a Steam key directly from SE) during the holidays.

Thanks I'll check it out on the 19th.

Noticed the Resident Evil games are all a couple bucks cheaper there, yeah

Feel free to make one. This thread should also get rebooted with the first post inviting people to another forum and everything.

It's not too late to start one, I suppose? My shopping cart is full of $5 or less (mostly a lot less) games that are awesome, I wouldn't mind sharing it with GAF.

So I just picked up hellblade. Why have I waited so long for this. What an incredible beautiful looking game. The detail in the environment and character is remarkable. I don’t even have a high end pc. My rig is about 6 years old with a 7970 but some games still really impress me on this machine.

I'm about 7 hours into it. It's decent so far, though I couldn't care less about the story. I started skipping the cutscenes. The bosses are pretty easy, up to this point. The level design is bland until suddenly I arrived in Anor Londo. It's a pretty shameless knock off.
A minor annoyance is the 'invading' mechanic nonsense. Every now and again in certain areas you trigger an invasion of wave after wave of enemies......if you manage to kill them all you get a shitty reward. Not particularly good game design, IMO.
I think I'll persevere and finish it, but I'm not blown away.

Yeah it's hard to hold a candle to From's level design, but for $30 I figured it was an easy bite. I also saw it has like one of the best character creator which I'm excited to mess around in.

I'm going to finish up Final Fantasy 7 before diving into this Fallout 76 Wastelanders thing. Wish me luck I don't get stuck in the jank.

Are we expecting a spring sale or no? I was thinking of buying Hades, Black Mesa, and Amid Evil. Or Doom Eternal.
What say you gaf? The three games which are all pretty awesome or Doom Eternal.

There wasn't a spring sale last year and no idea if there'll be one this year.
I'm also eying up black mesa but I have so much other shit to play that I can't justify getting it just yet. When I'm ready to play it I'll probably just buy it full price anyway.
Just bought Automobilista 2 and the DLC for Assetto Corza Competizione so I'm about to go on my quarterly sim racing binge.
I'll also be getting Xcom Chimera Squad so have that to look forward to.

Stoneshard is truly fantastic, if the developers make the world 7 or 8 times larger, and do everything in the roadmap I can see it being in my top 5 rogue-like games of all time.

Here is something new in case you are interested, i started to see some new games come with Point Shop items. These are simple emotes or profile backgrounds based on the game but in order to buy them you also must own the game. Im still not sure if you can earn them by playing. The list of items are located under achievements.
