Y'all niggas ready for a miracle?
>>
>>320103624

No miracles anymore, daily and flash sales are gone
developers likely don't want their games to be sold at a super sale price for two weeks straight, so the overall sale percentage will be less

Oh boy can't wait for terrible deals on games i didn't want.

The Holiday sale will come hot on its heels, starting on December 22nd at 10 am and ending on January 4th at 10am. Unfortunately, gamers who are accustomed to grabbing titles during flash sales to get the largest discount possible may be disappointed.

Steam is not going to be holding flash sales during the Autumn or Holiday sale this year, and it remains to be seen if they’ll ever bring them back. With a record of over 7 million concurrent users, Steam is apparently doing it to level the playing field for all their users and to give gamers a bigger discount overall:

“In past sale events, we’ve asked for two discounts—a duration discount that runs for the length of the sale, and a feature discount that runs in the event that a game is featured on the front page. This year, to optimize the sale for customers and to allow us to feature and recommend your products in more ways to more customers, we’re asking for just one discount, to run the length of the sale.

Did you all miss the sale 2 weeks ago? It did the same shit and it was like every game was permanently a daily deal or flash sale.

I prefer it that way. Why have everything 35% for the majority of the sale aside from one day where it's 80% when you could just have it 80% the entire time?

because it's fun to be glued to your computer within 8 hour windows so you don't miss a golden deal.

Then being forced to make rash and unsound purchases because you know that very soon your opportunity will be lost.

That's why steam sales are so fun. It's the thrill of getting new games cheap, and the terror of trying to run the gauntlet without getting into debt.
>>
>>320105214
takes away the excitement of the flash sales, but i think it'll take a bit of load off the servers and you won't see people refunding after they found the game went to flash sale

That's what I thought, this news was revealed over a month ago, but then the autumn sale actually turned out alright, best steam sale in fucking years.

>>320105481

It was fun for a few years but it's getting old now and without all the fun stuff like coal or achievements that give you items, I'd rather just have everything have a huge discount at once. Sick of waiting and checking steam every few hours honestly.
>>
>>320103624

>>
>>320105605
Yes, you did.

They used to be a lot better. I remember getting a bundle of like 15 GOOD indie games for like 2 bucks, AAA releases release 6 months earlier would be like 75% off, it was almost unheard of to see a game on sale for less than 50%.

Nowadays amazons sales blow steam out of the water but steam kiddies don't know.

Wait, I have Dishonored in my library and there's no way I would've paid more than $10 for it. I think you missed the boat at some point.

Anyway, the oldest thing on my wishlist is Fall of Cybertron. I don't want to spend more than $5 on it, and I think the cheapest it's ever been was $7-something. I'm hesitant to buy it at all, since I barely remember playing War for Cybertron despite collecting Transformers for a hobby.

It has been under $10 before but not if you include all the DLC.

I think will all the DLC it's usually around $16, I would accept $12 for a GOTY pack, but nope, year after fucking year it gets the same deal.

I will hold out on pure principle, I have more than enough to purchase it easily but I wont. Plenty of other shit in my backlog to keep my occupied until the devs give it the price I want.

God I miss old Steam sales. I remember getting like 10 copies of P.B. Winterbottom when it was like 20-30 cents on Steam.

I'd say too GreenManGaming has some great added discounts. So a 75% off game with a 20% off coupon is way better than just a 75% sale on Steam.

Only benefit to Steam is the refunds, and at that point why not just pirate it?

do they still do publisher packs at like $50 when some of the games are $50 regular price or is that an oldfag thing

noticed the sales starting to suck dick a couple years ago, and now they are actually raising the price of games by 20-50% just to offer the exact same discount advertised all over the place

with the addition of early access garbage and greenlight steam has really gone downhill and it seems this trend just gets worse every year

They got rid of the flash sales, but instead all games are automatically at it's lowest price.
Skyrim for example, instead of cycling between $5 and $2.5, it's going to be at $2.5 during the entire sale.
Looks like they know there's spikes in sales in those moments, so they want to maximize the profits.
>>
>>320108463
>at that point why not just pirate it?
Because buying a game from steam, playing it a bit then refunding it is faster and easier than pirating the game.

In G2A you have that.
You can pay $5 to have a bunch of random Steam CD Keys, or $10 for a bunch of ''high quality game'' Steam keys.
>>
>>320109270

Technically this is better, you don't have to wait to find out if the game you want is going to get cheaper but it does take a lot of fun out of the experience.

Maybe the minigame will be good lol
>>
>>320109319
Most did.
I always check prices with steamdb and every game I wanted to buy was at it's lowest price.

50% at most.

I want to be excited but I honestly can't think of any other games I want after playing fallout 4 and just cause 3. Maybe broforce if it's cheap enough but that's about it.

The new sale-style is probably better and less exploitative of impulse buyers, but it was also kinda fun watching the sales change every day.

This, games I want to buy are Rainbow Six Seige, Just Cause 3 and Fallout 4, but they are too new.
I already bought long ago everything I wanted to buy, and I even ''secured'' those games I pirated to have easy access to them should I delete them.

That looks like Legend of Grimrock after it caught a serious case of the MMORPGS.

And yes, I know LoG isn't the be-all end-all of the Dungeon Crawler genre, it's just the first thing that sprang to mind.

I got JC3 for £15 from cdkeys so you may want to check there. I also know they often have deals on fallout 4 and siege.

>>320110149
Reflex

With JC3? God no. They haven't even put a patch out for it yet. It's a requirement that you have a fairly powerful pc because it's intensive and prone to rather large fps drops.

Don't tell me they changed that. Cause it's how I got New Order and Old Blood super cheap.
>>
>>320110439
They did. I had high expectations because of just cause 2 and mad max which ran amazingly. JC3 seriously needs to be patched, I'm sick if the lighting issues since it turns the game into a disco although that's not to say I dislike the game since I already have 30+ hours in it.
>>
>>320110439

They had another Coming Soon™ post literally 10 minutes ago, they're working on the patch.
Also it's just AMD that has performance issues and I thought most was fixed with driver update

If I'm correct it's because the PC version of Pandora Tomorrow has serious shader problems with modern graphics cards so they don't sell it

Which is really insulting that they won't try and figure it out and include some kind of wrapper to fix it for such a classic game.

I heard you can unlock the DLCs without buying them with a simple file edit because Steam downloads everything anyways.

You're honestly much better off actually hunting for specific deals at other digital retailers because Steam usually doesn't have the best deals during sales. Even G2A and shit if you're not retarded and can read about regional restrictions.

Yes. DC version, though. It's just distinctly archaic by design and that rubs some people the wrong way. Also, it's a fucking slow burner story-wise. And I don't mean "it gets good after X hours" because it's good from the get-go but gets a lot better in the second half or so when it feels like inXile actually figured out how to make excellence.

Pirate it first. If after a few good hours you find it's your cup of tea then drop some bux on it when the Steam sale hits.

>They got rid of the flash sales

Doesn't it actually have to do with the possible complications introduced by the Steam refunds. See scenario:

>Buy game
>Game goes on Flash sale tomorrow
>Refund
>Buy again
>>
>>320111673
I think it's great but if you don't like TBS cover-shooter then what do you think?
>>
>>320111993
Aren't refunds not instant?
>>
>>320112205
They aren't... which is why flash sales had to go. Refunding a game that went on sale right after you bought it is explicitly not considered abusing refunds, so it was get rid of quick sales or deal with a deluge of morons clogging up the system even more than usual.

No. The flash sale is a different type of sale that made people impulse buy. If these prices stick for too long, there's no need to put them so low.

Skyrim will be $3-4 not $2.5.
>>
>>320106185
That is humble monthly.

>>320120303
Stop spreading misinformation.
Steam cannot and will not LOCK, BAN, or LIMIT an account due to a fraudulent CD-key, best they can and will do is revoke CD-Key(s) in question and inform you of it.
Try to sell a game on g2a and then talk about stolen keys.

my market is locked until december 25, and i wont have money until i sell my dota cosmetics so WHATEVER

> miracles
They're gonna have an actual event connected to playing some games and other things as opposed to minor cardshit with badge stuff (that you can't even sell unless you have purchased something)? Because that would be a miracle, since otherwise these steam sales are largely running on old merits, there are other places with decent prices that aren't vodka squatting sites.

Sure you can get cheap games, but there's no magic.

Only for the coal event and then only due to that event being badly constructed. Heck you could even skip the freebies and it'd be solid.

It's not that complicated or insurmountable dammit. I realise it's a jew factor to it so lets not pretend it's only "oh no fucking russians well we can't solve this". As cancerous as russians are the can be chemo'd here.
