What the actual fuck is with this years sale, there's absolutely nothing worth buying this year because anything that has any remote quality never goes under 30%
how about you faggot get a job, earn money and spend those two or three dollars more which you already can't afford?
>>342605335
how about i just pirate your games instead :^)
>>342605335
But Steam games are worth nothing. You're paying for a product that you won't own.
>>342605335
It's because none of the prices are actually appealing at all that's the problem you dingus.
>>342605335
>wagecucks
Is LA NOIRE worth playing? I've only heard bad things
>>342605231
Dude it's like the first day.
I'm sure there will be plenty of weebshit later.
>>342605231
>no quality games more than 30% off
Huniepop is 69% off
>>342605545
Fuck off, poorcuck.
>>342605753
Everything is already at its deepest discount from day one.
>>342605754
Why did you repeat what you quoted?
>>342605743
some praise it to hell and back but I found it to be quite boring, you can refund it anyways so just try it
It's the same quality as last year's sale. Anyway, finish your backlog before you complain about shit.

Look man if i wanted to spend more on a game ill just get it DRM free from gog or humble. Im not in the buisness if giving valve any more money and I hope for its eventual collapse.
>20 year old game
>base price is $4.99
>10 year old game
>base price is $19.99
The cost of digital games is absolutely unacceptable, especially when the publisher is making no efforts to patch bugs and issues encountered on new operating systems.
>>342605743
Absolutely. It isn't an action game like most Rockstar titles, but interrogations and chasing people is fun af. I thought it was actually popular here, I don't know what's so bad about it.
>>342605504
Underrated post
>>342605958
This should be made into a real game.
>>342605427
pirate them, at least then we don't have to listen to you obnoxious wailing
>>342605335
He's complaining about the quality of the sale. Do you realize how retarded you sound?
>This movie isn't that great
>HURR JUST GO AND DIRECT YOUR OWN FAG
>>342605504
You're paying for the rights to access a game, not ownership of it. Same shit different pile. The end goal is 24/7 ability to play that game
>>342606198
Bad analogy, that implies that he was telling him to become a game dev, not to get a job.
>>342606052
Everything has worked fine on Windows 10 for me, honestly idk why everyone hates on Windows 10 it's a lot like 7 anyways
Not an argument
This is why reddit is better than this shithole
>>342605335
>LITERALLY DEFENDING SHIT DEALS
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING, ANON
I managed to get four arguably great games for about 50 dollars, so I don't really see the big deal.
>>342606167
no ones talking about steam sales period
there's literally nothing interesting on sale
>>342606079
m8 there isn't an alternative in some cases. Right now I'm wrestling with getting Dominions 4 on steam for the reason you and the other guy stated, but the dev hasn't made it available on any other platform and cracks don't exist
>>342606276
>that game
There's no guarantee it will stay 'that game,' or if the company will let you play their game forever.
>>342606567
Witcher 3
Dying light expansion
>>342606638
>Witcher 3
>Dying Light
>interesting
>>342606605
Same can be said with consoles. I don't see your point.
Considering how empty my backlog was, I consider this years sale a hit. Played Subnautica for a few hours last night, and now I'm playing Stardew Valley while Dragons Dogma is downloading in the background
I think the best game I bought though, hands down, isOddworld: Munch's Oddysee
It's because so many people cried that they "missed" the daily deals that they removed them altogether last year I think. 2 years ago?
>daily deals
>24 hours with huge discounts
>ANOTHER 24 hours in case you missed them
>incredibly cheap
>impulse buying + limited time offer = huge sales
>if what you wanted wasn't on sale, you just waited
>buy rest on last day
>people cry about "missing" deals even though they're up for 48h
>valve remove daily deals altogether
>games now don't feel discounted "enough"
>rockstar pulls the shit where they bundle a shark card with GTA5 and then discount it to its original price
>nothing feels worth buying any more because it's not cheap enough to trigger the impulsive feelings in people
>>342606690
They are notable games with a lot of hours to play. Thats more than enough nowadays
>>342605231
Try Catmouth IslandIt's not quality but at least it's cheap.
>>342606851
>They are notable games
Fallout 4 and DA:Inquisition are notable games with a lot of hours to play.
>>342606794
and whats your excuse for no auctions or minigames this time around
also, fuck bethesda, dishonored has been 5 bucks for years but they have it at 10 now to cash in on the sequel
>>342606979
>le F4 and DAI are bad games meme
>>342606760
My copy of San Andreas is sitting right next to me, unaltered, with the original music and UI. As long as I keep the disc cool and dry, it won't rot until after I'm dead.
>>342606794
It wasn't because of people missing daily deals. People have been missing them for half a decade. It's because they allowed refunds. Before daily deals were meant to entire people to impulse buy an assload of games, but now because of refunds they know people will just return the shit ones later. It's like fapping to something and then immediately regretting it afterwards.
>>342606979
No. They are not. They are mediocre and you know it anon.
Xcom 2 digital deluxe? liked enemy within
>all the games I want are above $15
Guess I have to wait next sale again. Dragon's Dogma was the only game that I was willing to pay a lot for. The others can wait.
This sale really is shit though.
>>342605231
A lot of older or less known games are still on amazing sales.
Every painkiller game is 90% off for example.
Just get better taste in games.
>>342607163
This is probably it. Valve can't outright scam people anymore, so they have to play the long game and keep prices high on game people actually want to play.
>>342607141
Guess I should've specified modern consoles.
>tfw only bought one game and it was shit so I refunded it
I just pirated some GoG games instead.
>>342607570
Why would you spend $60 on a digital copy of a console game when you can get the same thing on a disc that's yours? In a worst case scenario, you could at least tolerate the unpatched experience.
>>342607141
That's nice senpai, now stop wasting server storage with your pointless posts.
"I have a physical copy of a game which means i grt to keep it forever and ever!". Youre so fucking stupid
>>342606605
And after that I'll return to piracy, didn't happened yet.
>>342607687
You know there's a shut off switch for consoles right? Even if you buy a physical disc the company can just shut down your system. What if they feel like shutting down the consoles when they shut down servers? Nothing is stopping them, just like Steam with denying you access to your digital copy.
So, if I'm understanding correctly: these are the final sale prices? No point in waiting around like in previous years?
>>342608148
For multiplayer, non-dedicated servers, yeah, probably.
For single player games? Nigger, it's a console powered by electricity in your house. Unless they implemented a remote switch, there's no way they can prevent me from playing any PS2 game (as an example) in 20, 50 or 100 years from now, supposing I'm alive that is.
tfw ps plus and xbl is $30 each and for a grand total of 60 dollaroos you get 98 games with at least half of them being retail games. The value is insane, pccucks cannot defend this. Literally everything that xbl/psn is giving away is 3-5 bucks per game on steam sale. Consoles were shit before but this is way fucking better, if you think it's not you're a delusional valvedrone.
cant find anything, bought $50 worth of League skins and bought WoW Legion
>>342608798
You're right, buying from Steam is retarded, why would you do it?
So why bother with steam sales when sites like g2a are always cheaper and cheaper around the clock?
I've bought Oblivion GOTY edition for 5 bucks while it was 20 on Steam.
>only wanted to buy three games
>Squad, MGS V and maybe some War Thunder steam packs
>Squad is -25%
>MGSV is -30%
>the War Thunder packs were just tossed into a massive bundle rather than each going on sale
literally the worst sale I've ever had the displeasure of witnessing. ive been there for every single sale since the very first one 2010 and they've slowly and slowly dilapidated into festering piles of shit.
>>342605231
I got Darkest Dungeon
don't care about anything else
>bought NUDOOM yesterday
>whenever I run it without vsync my GPU decides to slam dunk that shit and gets solid 144fps but heats up to 90+c
>already cleaned out the dust in my GPU
I don't know what to do other than just let it murder Doom at the cost of my room turning into a fireball
>>342605743
before you buy it, if you live in venezuela or ukraine or somewhere with equally poor infrastructure, the game is 14gb of uncompressed man face
why
im in japan
its a japanese game (metal gear rising)
>>342606605
That's only a problem if the game in question is multiplayer only, nobody can stop me from running a .exe and playing a singleplayer game when I want.
>>342605231
D44m at 40% discount is bretty good
>>342608681
Bumping for an answer.
>>342610276
Where in Japan are you, m8?
>>342610715
tokyo
>>342610715
Yes they're the final prices
They will neither go up nor down for the duration of the sale
>>342605231
Because eurocucks forced steam to start giving refunds which ruined flash sales
I'm having a real fun time playing Shovel Knightat work, but I bought about 10 overall that were recommended yesterday by some kind anons. The only one I feel iffy about is Dragons Dogma. Hoping that Risk of Rain and Subnautica are as fun as /v/ makes them out to be.
In total, I spent roughly $75 this summer sale, less than last year
>>342611035
can't vouch for subnautica but RoR is fantastic
>>342610780
Thanks, time to make some decisions.
>>342610756
Nice, hanging out in Kyoto myself. Enjoy the heat.
