Steam Winter Sale thread
I want to spend around $30. What should I get from my wishlist?
>>321941507
get distance OP, you have patrician tastes
Nuclear Throne and both KOTORs are pretty great.
>>321941507
MGR rising was a pretty fun but short game. It was great for my first metal gear fame.
Is Payday 2 worth getting for only two people to play? Can you still get DLC for free?
R8 my 2015 haul
>>321944936
You can play the DLC heists for free as long as you're not hosting.
Beyond that, you either have to buy the weapon DLCs or use DLC Unlocker to get them.
>>321945373
Is super meat boy worth a bag of chips?
>>321944936
Payday 2 is not worth getting period because the devs have turned into massive pay2win jews and ignore community complaints.Also the SWAT turret is plain not fun to play against.
>>321945525
Lots of people think so, but I haven't fired it up yet
>>321945645
What mid-low end online co-op game would you recommend?
Wich one of these games I shouldnt buy ?
>>321945645
I played pirated Payday 2 online for like a month and got bored of it. I'm sure they released new maps since then but it's just a very repetitive type of game.
>>321941507
king aurthors gold is pretty good, unfortunatly not very populated
>>321945979
I'm not the one to ask. Not a fan of co-op games.
>>321945525
Meat Boy is definitely worth your time if you've never played it before.
Cities Skyline and Rayman Legends sounds good.
How's my cart?
Anything bad?
Any cheap recommendations?
>>321946163
I don't know how good the other games are, but I didn't really like Burnout Paradise.
Turning a racing game into an open world game, where you need to drive all the way back to the start of a race to retry it, seemed like the stupidest thing you could have done with the series.
So unless you like the idea of a comfy driving "Simulator", I wouldn't get it.
U can get me RWBY

Lord help me I may actually want to be the weeb...
>>321946870
>Tomb Raider
it's not that good, but for $3 you'll get at least that much entertainment from it, especially if you have a fetish for violence against women
>Chivalry
wouldn't bother, the community is basically all spin2win hardcore metafags and there's no saving it
Otherwise good choices.
>>321946870
is burnout paradise really a simulator in any way? i had burnout on PS2 and it seemed like a very arcadey game but yeah if you are just talking about the fact that it takes time to get to places it makes sense. to be honest i only want ed it because of the low requirements so i can play it on the livingroom with my old PC
Luftrausers looks allright but I'd say Sine Mora is a better buy right now. Im not a huge chivalry fan anymore but Chivalry itself but its decent for its price. dunno if the DLC is really worth it.
also if you enjoy 1st person meele games Warhammer: Vermintide is right up your alley. It's basically Left 4 Dead with warhammer stuff and excellent graphics
about the other games i have no idea but zero reflex looks fun
>>321941507
Grabbed these bad boys, as well as Rocket League. I think I did alright, backlog is getting huge though.
>>321948262
Simulator was a pretty poor choice of words on my part.
What I mean is that I dislike how it's open world, but someone might get enjoyment freely driving around the world.
Honestly, for 2.50 you could do a lot worse, but I'd rather play the older PS2 games.
I like the look of luftrausers because it reminded me of an old arcade game I like, but I'll look into Sine Mora.
I do want get Vermintide, but I'm not sure about spending that much right now.
I have no idea about Zero reflex either, but it looks like Super Hexagon, so it should be good.
>>321948112
I've heard that Tomb Raider is pretty good, but not so much a classic Tomb Raider game. I haven't played the series before, so for $3, it sounded nice.
I'll probably drop the Chiv DLC then.
>>321948969
>I haven't played the series before, so for $3, it sounded nice.
IIRC they've got pretty much every Tomb Raider game in the latest Humble Bundle, and for $5 you can get 5 TR games better than the reboot.
>>321946870
Tomb Raider was one of the most infuriating games I've ever played for a couple reasons, but for that price, go ahead.
Chivalry is fun as fuck.
>>321946163
Dishonored is amazing, but I would highly suggest picking up the two main DLCs as well. Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches, play them in that order after the campaign.
Fix this
What are the cheapest four pack games I can buy?
I don't care how terrible they are, they just need to be very very cheap.
>>321949684
>Brothers
Wow anon you could not be morein for some feels, that game is really good and quite a novel use of your gamepad.
>>321949684
Keep Brothers, Undertale, and Tomb Raider. Brothers is pretty short but I heard really good, as with Undertale. Tomb Raider is worth the price. Not really that familiar with the others. You can always wait until the next big sale though, it's likely Undertale will go for a lower price by then.
I have purchased:
Assassin's Creed Black Flag + Syndicate
I'm considering Nuclear Throne and UnderRail. I'm somewhat concerned about UnderRail, as I'm not terribly good at strategy, and this seems like the sort of RPG that will straight up fuck you in the ear if you screw around.
Thoughts?
Get Bully
>>321949696
just wait for a multiplayer game to be on humble bundle
4 times = 4€
>>321941507
HOLY FUCK I FORGOT YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR BLACK MESA NOW
Fucking valve, why does no one give them shit?
what are some decent multiplayer games for $1 or less?
Looking to pick up a few for me and a friend since I managed to sell some TF2 garbage.
>>321950203
Looking for the same thing, although willing to buy something for around 5 bucks.
>>321941507
I honestly recommend grabbing Turok as one of your picks. I grew up with my N64 as my brother and my neighborhood friends as my food in game. Regardless of no MP in Turok 1, it is such a fantastic experience again. People argue it aged horribly, but the only thing that makes it seem old is the level design. It's map/maze-y like doom but harder to navigate in a lot of spots. Finding those X number of keys to get all you need and move on can be difficult. But nothing a little patience or wiki reading can help you with.
>yfw final boss
>>321941507
Talos Principle, Shadow Warrior
GALAK-Z, Duck Game and GTA V when they get cheaper. I feel so good that I only payed 27€ to pre-order GTA V. Thanks Brazil. Also online is full of cheaters now.
Isn't Talos Principle just 5$ ? It's 5€ here in Europe.
>>321950203
>>321950545
Cops and Robbers servers in San Andreas Multiplayer are extremelly fun if you can look past the outdated graphics
Quake Live would be a good F2P choice too if they didn't make it 10€ on october
TrackMania Nations Forever (F2P)
Grid 2 is pretty fun if you are into racing games and has splitscreen mode so if you pirate it you can still play multiplayer if you have friends over
>>321950203
Orion Prelude
How solid is my list? What should I change?
Nuclear Throne, shadow warrior, and Talos principle. save the rest
>>321950545
>>321950203
It's $5 (about $15 for the four pack, I think) but Insurgency is one of the better shooters on the market right now. Pretty decent community if you can find a more mature server without the memesters, and the co-op on hard mode is god tier.
Should I buy Saints Row the Third? I liked 2 and I liked 4 but I heard 3 is different than both of them
>>321950994
>>321951037
Thanks!
We've been playing Orion Prelude off and on over the past year which gave us the idea to look for more dirt cheap gems. I'll be sure to give those a try!
I almost want to get Nekopara
Please save me /v/
>>321951228
If you liked 2 AND 4, you'll probably like 3 2. er, too.
>>321951518
get it
its cheap and its pretty cute
and if you move the game window around the screen the boobs bounce on your cat maids
>>321950994
What's the difference between Quake Live and Quake 3? Already have 3.
>>321941507
How do you get this info? whats the name of the plugin?
>>321951694
Quake Live was basically an updated free version of Quake 3 with balance changes, more options and some engine improvements. Also since it stopped being F2P they added Steam integration and improved the menus
So far I've gotten KotOR 2, Turok remastered, and Axiom Verge. I also bought Subnautica but refunded after an hour and a half because while it's really neat there doesn't seem to be much to do in it. I'm currently stuck with $20 and no idea what to get. I have like 10 things in my cart and can't decide (FF7, Rainbow Six 3 Gold, Kyn, Evolve, Windward, FF6, Way of the Samurai 4, Ikaruga, Resident Evil Revelations, and Legend of Grimrock 2).
>>321951694
quake live is a ruined version of 3 with violence and modding removed and casualization/paying implemented.
>>321951897
its enhanced steam, an extension you can get for firefox or chrome
>>321951518
You have to go off steam to get the adult version which is what you really want anyway so just pirate it then.
Do you REALLY want your steam friends to see your power level?
>>321951897
http://www.enhancedsteam.com/
>>321951228
4 is basically an expansion for 3 (and it originally was meant to be before they got greedy and sold for full price) Same exact city and everything, just without the aliens and superpowers, so you'll almost certainly feel like you've already been there done that with it.
R8/H8 plz
>>321952536
I don't know about Renowned Explorers or Murdered Soul Suspect, but I've heard good things about everything else
>>321952021
>>321952082
thanks
>>321952536
Murdered soul suspect is $1 on humble bundle right now
>>321953076
forgot about the humble bundle, thanks for reminding me
any good singleplayer games with tons of replayability on sale?
>>321953314
UNDERRAIL.
Sure, it's barely on sale, but its fucking amazing.
>>321953314
Mount & Blade: Warband is $3.29 right now.
Super fuckin' worth.
what are some games where I can make my own guns and shoot them or build robots but not have to worry about every single minor detail like AC?
>>321954115
World of Guns if you want to take apart/build real guns
>>321941507
Been thinking about rogue legacy myself, any good?
>>321954115
i think in Receiver you can make your own guns but its not very good
For Robots, robocraft is probably your only choice
I remember playing a robot fighting game like 10 years ago that let you create and customize robots a lot and they actually looked like normal robots but the graphics probably look like crap by today's standard
Any reason not to get these two? Been looking at them for a while and they're dirt cheap
>>321941507
get thief 2, meme gear rising and rayman legends
Anything missing? Anything that shouldn't be there?
>>321945525
Yes, number 2 on my very short list of great platformers, one being the best.
>>321945525
yes, and if you're a fan of platformers, get dustforce. it's on sale now for 5$ and it is challenging, has a great soundtrack, and online replays so you can learn from other people. it's a fantastic game.
>>321954773
dont know about Apotheon but Mark of the Ninja is amazing! and has more depth that you would spec from a 2D game
This game worth it? I hear its like gothic, but the 2nd and 3rd games are trash or some shit
>>321954773
Mark of the Ninja is fantastic. Skip Apotheon though, it has a fantastic and really inspired art style but the game itself is sadly shit.
>>321955113
im sorry but i dont like cleaning that much anon
>>321954773
Both of those are worth playing.
>>321955332
Its pretty much Gothic 2 with better graphics. Risen 2 and 3 are definitely trash though, which is sad.
>>321954682
>>321954707
I'll give those a look
I only want to spend 10 buchs but I can't decide which game I should get.
Those are all games I'd probably enjoy, but two of them are still Early Access.
Shovel Knight isn't, but $10 for a 2D pixel game seems a bit much.
>>321956489
I know nothing about the other two games, but Shovel is totally worth $10.
It's highly praised for a reason, and with the free Plague of Shadows DLC, it has even more great content.
>>321941507
I've been playing Talos Principle for the last few days and it's probably the best game I've played this year.
>>321950994
>Isn't Talos Principle just 5$ ? It's 5€ here in Europe.
Where do you live? It's 10€ here in Germany.
probably too late to ask /v/anta for anything, but my christmas sucked as i have no friends or family anywhere near me. would anyone be willing to get me H1Z1 so I can play with my only real steam friend?
>>321956489
>Shovel Knight isn't, but $10 for a 2D pixel game seems a bit much.
Be glad you weren't alive 30 years ago when that shit was $60 to $80.
>>321956774
Get a job, faggot.
>>321952058
yes
>>321956829
I've been alive 30 years ago but I was a toddler. Still had to pay 109 Deutsche Mark for fucking Harvest Moon.
>>321956489
Shovel Knight really isn't worth $10. The fanboys will try to tell you its worth $60 though
>>321956774
>would anyone be willing to get me H1Z1
no. trust me you don't want it. it's a shit game im doing you a favor.
>>321957025

How bad exactly is the original Shadowrun Returns? I'm enjoying Dragonfall so I'm sort of curious to try the other two while they're on sale.
Is Sim City 4 worth buying if I already have Cities Skylines?
What about Roller coaster tycoon 3?
>>321957505
>Is Sim City 4 worth buying if I already have Cities Skylines?
No
>>321951154
please respond dammit
>>321957505
both are good games for their niche but having both is kind of redundant isn't it?
>>321957473
Its not bad at all. All three of the SR games by HBS are pretty good, Dragonfall is just by far the best of the three.
>>321957473
It's not horrible. But it's not great, either. It's pretty much meh. Did you like the original Shadowrun SNES game? Does the idea of the protagonist returning excite you? Well, if so, you're in luck because that's about the sole highlight.
>>321946163
Do yourself a favor and buy Max Payne 3, that shit is fantastic, it's such a good game with a amazing story
I got $6
what should I get that's fun
>>321957473
It's definitely not as good as Dragonfall. It's by no means horrible, but Dragonfall did everything Returns did and more.
Hong Kong is also good. People gave it a lot of shit because it was just as good as Dragonfall, and wasn't as much an improvement on Dragonfall as Dragonfall was over Returns.
>>321956771
There are 2 different pricings they use for the Eurozone. Tier1 and Tier2. Tier2 is a bit cheaper
http://steamunpowered.eu/european-tiers/
>>321957865
But the SNES game was shit, the Genesis game was the only video game version of Shadowrun worthwhile...

![Story_Image_1[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/Pb7KDEy.png "Story_Image_1[1].png")
I've been itching for a Civ game but I've already played too much Civ V.
I've read Beyond Earth is pretty meh, and also seen Endless Legend slowly but surely climb up the top sellers, is it good?
Metal Gear Rising, definitely, that is an amazing price for a quite good and entertaining game.
Just be sure to use a controller.
>>321945525
Depends what chips you're comparing it to.
If I can only buy one game, which of these would you buy?
>>321958982
What is bad about it? It tells the story of Max after his whole life being turned to shit, his loved ones dying and he being suicidal and not caring for the world anymore, following him and his attempt to doing his job, because he is still a man of his own word
It is a really good story, and it tells the tale of a broken man
>>321949684
>Undertale
Just watch some good youtube playvideos, you will basically get the same out of it.
>>321959183
Necrodancer
I have almost 2 pages of those dumb cards from the queues, should I sell them now or wait for the final day?
>>321959034
Very. There's a lot to like and it'll scratch the Civ itch while also being fresh and different. The factions are all wildly different from each other which gives the game a lot of replay value and variety. Good combat system too. Great art style and aesthetic as well.
>>321959183
Dance on those crypts son.
So I'm getting Talos Principle.
Are any of the DLCs worth buying? Particularly interested in Serious and the soundtrack DLCs
>>321959183
You'd have to be a fool not to choose Crypt
>>321959282
They disappear immediately after the sale ends, so you probably shouldn't wait too long. No idea if that will drive their value up in the final hours or not though.
>>321959220

Road to Gehenna is the only DLC that adds story.
The Serious Sam DLC is more or less just a funny gimmick, if you want to play the same game twice with different voice acting, but it doesn't fit the atmosphere.
>>321959601
>He really bought it
>>321959601
Get ready for the dancing skeletons
>>321959470
Yeah, he might have had that feeling then, but still, after all the shit he went through, constantly had murderers and gangs after him, his addiction to painkillers, everything just building it all up and him never really being able to come to terms with the deaths of his child and wife, maybe it was just him trying to cope with the fact in Max Payne 2, but never being able to fully accept it?
I dunno man, but even with that detail you can't really say it's a bad story, all the stress the character must have been under the 2 first games alone would have made anyone a alcoholic, and the story of Max Payne 3, while forgetting about some of the details in 2, still is good, because Max is believable, and a very well written character, in all of the games
>>321955024
>planetarian
be ready to cry like a bitch
You should also get the dishonored dlc.
>>321959640
>Road to Gehenna is the only DLC that adds story.
Is it more of the same (not a bad thing mind you) or is it unique compared to the rest of Talos?
>The Serious Sam DLC is more or less just a funny gimmick
Well I already have BFE so I might as well just play that some more.
>>321941507
Distance good?
>>321959907
he would have gotten the same gay skeleton shit if he had bought undertale
>>321960179
Well, the entire game is about puzzle-solving and Road to Gehenna is like that as well, so in a way, it's more of the same. Still has new landscapes, a new main character and a completely different story.
All the other DLCs are a bit crap, desu.
Especially stay away from the Prototype DLC, those are just old, inferior versions of the puzzles in the finished game.
looking to empty my steam wallet. most curious to see what people think of teslagrad
>>321946870
luftrausers is pretty rad, but it's pretty easy to beat the bulk of the game and there hasn't been anything to draw me back to it after I played for about 2 hours. definitely not bad at that price, but I expected to get sucked into it and that didn't really happen.
>>321950203
Alien v Predator 2000 Classic
it's a lil dead but you can still find a game on the weekends
Do you think I'd like Mount and blade warband if I never really got into the vanilla game?
>>321961291
yes
buy it now
hundreds of hours of fun await
>>321961375
What if I'm an asshole who can't get over out dated graphics? I love the entire concept about the game besides the way the game looks.
>>321961846
then you should probably kill yourself if you'd let slightly dated graphics prevent you from having fun
>>321960283
Distance is a really solid game, but it somehow lacks a sense of speed that it should provide and I'm not sure exactly why that is. Maybe it's because you accelerate far too fast but I do think the game's very fun to play for a few hours.
How am I doing /v/?
>>321961936
Bit of an overreaction to someone not liking a game's graphics; the fact that it's "out-dated" doesn't bother me at all. I was really asking if there was some sort of graphic modifications for the game worth using.
>>321962296
the way you said it made it sound like you were an asshole who can't get over out dated graphics
>>321962296
I beg to differ, anyone who would let graphics get in the way of an otherwise very enjoyable experience is someone I strongly dislike.
Some mods have really well-done textures and others are god awful, it's kind of a mixed bag. There's refunds now so it's not like you have much to lose either way.
>>321962424
No; I'm afraid your power of assumption has brought out the worst in you for a legitimately simple question. Guess that's why there's only a grand total of 10 people on /v/ who viral this game to no end.

How is Serpent in the Staglands? Looks neat but some steam reviews say the bugs are bad
Should I?
I'm tentative about Grim Dawn and Pillars the most. I like aRPGs, but it's just the price tag that scares me a little.
Pillars on the other hand... I loved Dragon Age: Origins, but I've never touched a Baldur's Gate game. Also, that price tag scares me a bit. The depth and roleplaying shit makes my dick a bit hard though, also Obsidian.
Is Brave New World worth 7.50? I'm a v casual civ player, only play once in a while
>>321967189
KOTOR and Republic Commando are good choices, I would also suggest Jedi Knight Academy or 2 if you want more Star Wars.
>Daily deals no longer a thing
>This is supposedly a good thing since no one missed out on a deal
>Companys like ubisoft use this as an excuse to have some games on sale for literally one day during the entire thing
Assassins creed Rogue was on sale for $12 the other day, and I was thinking it over, and not that it's not a "featured" deal anymore, it's full price. What the fuck
What's the best mp survival fad game? I want to play one but there's a lot to sift through.
DaS 2 worth it or should I wait for DD?
How's Rust? My friends have been playing it all week but I just know as soon as I buy it they'll get bored of it.
first reply decides what game under $30 I buy.
>>321967987
I personally couldn't really get into it, but I was playing alone, and everyone on the sever severely outclassed with me both experience and the amount of shit they had on them
>>321967859
I like h1z1. There's the classic survival/scavenge mode, and there's a battle royal mode where 150 players fight to be last man standing. Everyone parachutes into the map and guns/ammo are fucking everywhere. It's a matter of luck what kind of guns you find though. Also poison gas pushes everyone towards one area slowly as the match progresses
Tell me what to remove and why
>>321968196
enjoy alltynex anon
>>321968196
Remove Neptunia. Have you played the first one? If yes then you've effectively played all of them.
Are any of the Alien VS Predator games worth getting?
Was considering getting a couple if they have good singleplayer and the multi can be played with friends.

Ori is a great game got me by suprise , there is no reason to not get shadow warrior for that price , MGR also , RE4 Rayman Legends and talos principle are all good games i would recommend
>>321967189
I personally found Pillars fun and interesting, it isn't a bad game, just some people didn't like that kills don't give XP and some thought it was shit writing, but i liked the story and choices
It is a good entry point for CRPGS, if you like it then you should explore the genre more with Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale imho
