We're deep enough in the sale to have one of those.

Show us your regret, also just what you got in general.

I regret pirating Endless Legend
>>
>>321217039
Is it that bad? I was gonna buy it since everyone kept saying it was better than Civ V
>>
>>321218062
It's great and it is better than Civ V. I think people just bought it cause it looks pretty without knowing how to 4x in the first place and got disappointed.
>>
>>321218062
It's more complex than Civ 5, so OP probably got too confused
>>
>>321218826
Probably this. If you like civ, you'll love endless legend. it's like civ4 + fall from heaven mod + professional level quality.
>>
So, the prices never drop during the sale? Or are the front page deals discounted further?
>>
>>321219767

They never drop, steam was sick of people refunding games that got flash sales.
>>
my only problem with this game is the unit diversity

i wish the mainline factions had more units to choose from
>>
>>321220163
The design choice was to diversify and assimilate minor factions to compensate for your weakness.

>>321220268
It wouldn't be a problem if they weren't so stingy with assimilation slots.

Also, it's annoying when you have to choose between a necessary military unit and a necessary assimilation bonus. Grabbed Silics as Wild Walkers for the resource bonus when they're essentially a weaker Ten'ei Walker.

I only have 12 hours in Team Fortress 2. I bought it the day it came out

I've never been so let down in my life
>>
>>321220694
Why? It was a pretty good game and got better for a long time. I don't regret purchasing it even if it is a cluster fuck design wise now.
>>
>>321219948
So Valve isn't doing deep discounts anymore because people can refund games? That doesn't make any sense.
>>
>>321220775
I just found it really boring for some reason. Didn't capture the essence of what made team fortress so fun for me I guess.
>>
>>321218062
It's deeper, where Civ is wider. Also the universe might not cater to everyone.
>>
>>321220795

People would buy the game during the sale, then when it hit a flash sale people were refunding to buy at the lower price. What doesn't make sense?
>>
>>321220795
Of course it does
They don't do deep discounts because unless they're very limited in time they're not (or less) profitable
>>
>>321220163
My problem was with unit balance, Infantry and Flying type units are complete dogshit.

Ranged units are insanely overpowered and cavalry are acceptable because they somewhat counter ranged.
>>
>>321217039
At least you can refund it now

This, seriously there's nothing to play on it, even for streaming is laggy as fuck (and i dont mean like the stream itself, i mean the app just frozes some times and that's it, i have to wait like 15 min) someone could recommend any games for this?
>>
>>321221389
I'm not sure, i only speak for myself. I think valve is a pretty ethical company.
I also would prefer the flash sale system they used to have. I feel like i'm being jewed by the current one, because none of the games are getting killer discounts at all.
I just tried to explain their reasoning behind not having them though. It would be quite annoying to have to deal with thousands of refunds and repurchases whenever a game hits a flash sale, because people are too stupid to wait it out to the last day.

>Buying an Early Access game ever, for any reason, at any price

And, what have we learned?
>>
>>
>>321222139

The only other early access game I have ever bought was Prison Architect and that turned out bretty gud. I did let my faggot friend talk me into buying the soon to be abandoned game, last time I take his advice.
>>
>>321221389
>their customers are doing the smart thing
Buying everything day 1 instead of waiting to see what goes on sale is now the smart thing to do? If you had to deal with those dipshits for weeks straight you'd pull the plug too. Yet here you are arguing that the new system with refunds is anti-consumer, so you're probably one of them.
>>
>>321217039
I just issued a refund for that game too. 36 minutes for me.
>>
>>321221975
Yeah i got halo and its kind of "meh" at it's best, probably just gonna wait for overwatch and dark souls or something
>>
>>321218062

Both Civ5 and EL are garbage.
>>
>>321221096
>What doesn't make sense?

You don't get your money back instantly if you issue a refund. It takes up to 48 hours. By then, the flash sale might be gone already.

Vanguard Princess. A moe fighter that plays like shit and is probably on the shitty FM2k engine. The goddamn pony fighter is better.

Honestly, i think with the possibility to refund any game you can save more money than you would save with an occasional deep-discount-purchase.

I really enjoy Endless Legend. It's great. Looks great and plays great.

What's the verdict on COH 2? Is it worth the 9 dollars steam is selling it for? Are any of the DLC's essential?
>>
>>321223302
Rogue Legacy is the most repetitive trash game I've played. Bosses are literally just bigger colorswaps of normal enemies. How do people find that shit to be fun?

I need it for my collection

Do you enjoy fast RTS?
>>
>>321223302
It's a glorified flash game that tries to make up for uninteresting gameplay with shitty progression.
>>
>>321224484
I don't. How's COH 2? Bullshittery and selling factions aside, how's the gameplay? I really loved the first one.
>>
The only real flaws Endless Legend has were lack of world size diversity and retard AI (the latter being fixed in a patch). My favorite Civ is 4 and I exclusively played on fuckhuge world with max world nations on marathon time, and I really wanted to play Endless Legend on the scale of Middle Earth.
>>
>>321224589
Man I don't know I don't play fucking video games

>>321223302
rogue legacy is garbage. As far as procedural generation goes it's one of the worst I've ever seen. It's an especially appalling turd in a sea of shit.
>>
>>321224589
If you loved the first one than you will at least enjoy #2. Just give it a shot.

I thought infantry were trash until I came up against some hilariously overgeared Broken Lord units as vaulters. I did manage to take them out with my OP archers but their hero just outclassed me too much.

I mean I don't quite get how Cultists can ever compete with Broken Lords or Wild Walkers.

It is really FAST
Absolute focus on combat than on economy
Only faction DLC is recommended because you can unlock commanders with time.

Really? I find the cultists to be the easiest race of them all to shit on everyone else.
