[AlimNassor]

How is the STALKER series? Which ones should I buy?

 

[Luigi87]

I'm content.

 

[quackamole]

Only thing I bought is Total War Shogan 2.

 

[Visualante2]

How is the STALKER series? Which ones should I buy?

Generally people say avoid clear sky.

 

[Deleted member 325805]

Picked up a few small games just now, think that's me done. Not everything I wanted but the rest need to come down in price before I grab them.

Half-Life 2
Half-Life 2: Episode Two
Stories: Path of Destinies
The Stanley Parable
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Singularity
Deadlight
Metro Last Light Redux
Fallout 4
The Walking Dead: A New Frontier
Batman: The Telltale Series
Total: £43.05 - £10.50 in cards = £32.55. That's actually more than I thought, but not too bad for what I got IMO.

 

[Carlius]

Only picked up the following so far since I have a backlog with other 3ds, PC, and Switch games.

Pillars of Eternity
Euro Truck Simulator 2 Essentials Bundle

I'm looking at the following before the sale ends but haven't made up my mind.

The Division survival dlc
Empyrion
Ark
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Assetto Corsa

assetto corsa is legit

 

[His Majesty]

final haul

 

[eot]

How is the STALKER series? Which ones should I buy?

1st and 3rd games are the best (Shadow of Chernobyl and Call of Pripyat respectively).

Personally I consider the first game to be the best, it's definitely the classic of the three I'd say, but others prefer the third. For me the highlight of the first game are bespoke areas that are more part of the main story than the open world, and the 3rd game has more of an emphasis on just being an open world game IMO.

Mechanically they're quite similar, and they're all built on the same tech, so it's not like one has aged dramatically better than another. The two sequels are more like big expansion packs than iterations on the core game. There are huge revision mods for all of them in case certain quality of life things bug you, although tbh I recommend staying away from most mods on a first playthrough because a lot of them alter the mechanics and balance too much.

Just do yourself a favour and turn off the crosshair though, makes the game a lot more immersive.

 

[ASaiyan]

Bought some higher-priced games than I usually do, but still snagged 8 for just under $50 USD with trading card credit. Praise Gaben.

 

[Navid]

I downloaded the free LawBreakers beta during the sale, and never got around to actually playing it...

...that counts right?

 

[epeternally]

Salt and Sanctuary was a gift from a friend. The two most recent pinball packs aren't actually on sale, but I bought them during the sale. Expensive hobby. (But worth it.)

 

[Zen Aku]

Are there any must buy for VR? Just got myself a Vive.

 

[mindatlarge]

I'm content.

This is me too, except I picked up an additional title:

I might pick up one or two more games tonight.

 

[SmokedMeat]

I'm content.

I haven't started Hollow Knight yet, but Dead Cells is just what the doctor ordered. Loving it so far!

 

[low-G]

I lied before, one more game: Sarieno VR, plus the Ayane DLC for Estival Versus, even though not on sale, cuz <3 Ayane.

Want to voice my support for all the Dead Cells buyers, and I look forward to trying Paradigm. I'm glad it looks completely insane.

 

[AJpaz]

Portal 2

 

[Eblo]

Just the new Hitman, so far. The demo tickled my fancy. Although I do have just enough Steam cash left to grab Dishonored...

 

[bede-x]

I got these:

Redout 12.79&#8364;
Redout Neptune Pack 3.19&#8364;
Archibald's Adventure 1.79&#8364;
Wyv and Keep 1.49&#8364;
Tribute Magic Bundle 4.55&#8364;
Bot Vice 5.99&#8364;
Adventures of Shuggy 1.49&#8364;
Final Fantasy VIII 6.49&#8364;
Soulcaster: Part I & II 2.49&#8364;
Slain: Back from Hell 5.19&#8364;

A little under the &#8364;50 that I'd set as my limit and plenty of games I'm looking forward to trying.

 

[Cth]

Picked up:

Shelter 2
SW Rebels DLC for Pinball FX 2
Nuclear Throne
Boss Monster
Guts and Glory
Talisman The Horus Heresy

And of course, I'm $10 short from picking up a Steam Controller. I thought Amazon's price match was going to last longer. I had GCs I wanted to use

 

[Hubble]

Are there any must buy for VR? Just got myself a Vive.

Absolutely the newest Resident Evil.

 

[Leatherface]

Pretty happy with my take this year. Don't usually spend money until the Thanksgiving/Winter sales but there were enough solid games at decent prices to go for it. Still a ton on my list but prices were too high. Hopefully there are great deals for the end of the year.

 

[Dance Inferno]

I think this is a pretty good haul and will likely keep me busy for over a year, but still tempted to pick up a few cheap games today. Anyone have any recommendations?

 

[DXLelouch153]

Brigador
Dead Cells
Cosmic Star Heroine
Enter The Gungeon
Xanadu Next
Grim Dawn
maybe buy one more game with card money, and if for some reason i dont like Xanadu since its not typical Ys, ill get something else on my wishlist, maybe New Vegas Ultimate Edition

 

[Redrable]

[MikeE21286]

I was close on Dead Cells and Hollow Knight but waited on console releases for both.

 

[chrominance]

I think I'm done now, so here's the damage:

Subnautica
Motorsport Manager
Hexcells
Hexcells Plus
Hexcells Infinite
Knights
Rise of the Tomb Raider
The Turing Test

Altogether that comes out to about $55 CAD, which is not a small amount of money but not a large amount either. I wasn't that keen on the price for Rise but decided it would be okay if it was the next game I played. In general I've actually been pretty good about playing everything I bought in the sale; the only ones I haven't touched yet are the last two, and that's because I bought them less than half an hour ago.

 

[jrush64]

My haul. Got quite a lot this year. First time since 2010.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

I can only purchase so much.

Bought but not shown: David and SpinGun.

And even after all that... I still feel the urge to buy something else before the end of the sale lol... There's nothing obvious I want but I'm still itching for another purchase lol

 

[Skikkiks]

Pretty good considering I spent just under 100 CAD and that was from a 100$ steam card paid for with trade in credit.

Sumoman was a gift from a friend, though. That sure is a fucking videogame.

 

[The Bad Guy]

Just one game this sale, Tower Unite. Was looking for a laid back game, so i'll see if i enjoy it tomorrow or not.

 

[Brandon F]

Torment: Numenera
FFV
FF6
FF4
Bunch of DLC for older games(Tyranny, Vermentide, etc...)

Not very exciting.

[CecilRousso]

Just Cause 3 XL
4 Pack of Shellshock Live
2 Pinball FX2 Tables - Portal and Guardians of the Galaxy
Endless Legend - Tempest expansion
Domina (refunded, it was to random to be enjoyable).

And if Just Cause 3 doesn't deliver a good enough performance, it's going straight back as well.

 

[Tizoc]

My haul for this sale
$15 @ GOG for De Blob 2

Sonic 4 ep. 1 and 2 came to GBP 3, and I made some purchases from Humble that came to around $50.

All in all I'd spent around $200 this sale as well as spent around $33 Steam credit on games.

Overall, it was really boring sale, but on the bright side i spent only around 100$ so not much damage was done compared to previous sales.

 

[uncelestial]

^ Holy shit.

...I kept it around $150, which was my goal.

 

[Sillverrr]

Resident Evil 0 and Costume Pack 3 (PC over PS4 for 60 fps). I now have a complete RE collection across platforms (excluding all those terribad Raccoon City spin-offs).
Pit People. Tactical Strategy + sense of humour.
The Evil Within: Season Pass. With the sequel announced I feel more motivated to play it.
Pharaoh Rebirth. Like the graphical style, plus good discount. Short metroidvania.
Rusty Lake Bundle. Inexpensive. Short. Sounds like an interesting mechanic (escape room gameplay).
Endless Legend - the expansion sets I didn't have, to complete the collection. I like the universe these guys are creating, even if I haven't put much time into their games.
Hollow Knight. Because everyone else bought it. Seems to have good support from the devs (future expansion announced). Long metroidvania.

 

[mabec]

Castlevania 2 is full price in EU and 7.99$ in US. NICE. THANKS KONAMI

 

[Grizza]

Well, I started out only buying Hollow Knight and finally getting the Ultimate Edition of Fallout New Vegas, since I've been wanting to play that DLC for quite a while now (and Fallout 4 DLC will never drop to a reasonable price).

Today I nabbed:

Primordia
Crimzon Clover
Pixeljunk Shooter
Headlander

This is the first STEAM sale in a long time that I had any temptation to go nuts and buy a bunch of stuff. So many interesting looking indies that I haven't seen or heard of. I probably would have spent a little more, but STEAM purged my cart yesterday and I had to refill it by memory.

 

[cj_iwakura]

ACE OF SEAFOOD and Momodora: Reverie Under The Moonlight.

Wanted to support Playism some more for getting Silver Case to us.

Also to be the ace of seafood.

 

[OrlanisWorks]

RUNNING WITH RIFLES
Milkmaid of the Milky Way
Near Death
Wolfenstein TNO
Hollow Knight (via GoG )

I could've purchased more, but my backlog of VNs keep me still.

 

[Kalor]

I didn't buy much this time around since I bought Trails in the Sky the 3rd and that was only 10% off.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd
Downwell

 

[O.DOGG]

In addition to the previous, I also got Kathy Rain, Resident Evil 6 and Mankind Divided Season Pass.

 

[KainXVIII]

From first week

Then selling >300 steam cards and here we go &#128512; (not enough for Rise of Tomb Raider though, but still)

And some generous gifts from friends

 

[sazzy]

here's what i got in this sale

18 games. $72 spent. $4 per game on average.
