these sales suck. Kidding. I'm surprised Hollow Knight is a third off already. May pick that up and never play it.

Even if I'm not going to buy much I still loving LOVE Steam sales for window shopping because I think I am an idiot. I have no loving interest in some lovely Romance Of the Three Kingdoms game but I love that it's on sale!

Bolivar posted:The "new" Torment is -50%, not sure about buying though... I've heard so many varied opinions on that but they basically boil down to pretty solid spiritual successor but the game writing made it clear what is the 'correct' path despite being offered choices.

Alright, I haven't kept track of the way sales work for the past couple of years. I know Steam doesn't do dailies anymore, but is there any reason to hold off on a game at 40% now, because someone else is going to make it -80% tomorrow?

I'm glad I set a game budget for myself over a year ago, it'll keep things in order. (It's no more than $30 or one game a month, whichever is higher. DLC and Humble Bundles don't generally count. The ceiling is raised to $60 during Steam Sales.)

I'm getting a fun overloaded server bug where I can see all the games, but none of them are listed with any discount. I'll probably pick up Torment and DH2 once things calm down a bit.

Dark_Swordmaster posted:e: ^^^^ Do NOT buy Mafia III. Conversely, do buy it, if it interests you and the price is right. It's pretty janky and repetitive, but the shooting is fun and the soundtrack, atmosphere, and writing are all pretty on point. It's a AA game with AAA aspirations and should've probably been marketed and priced as such, but it's not without merit.

Mung Dynasty posted:Conversely, do buy it, if it interests you and the price is right. Maybe it's because I'm such a huge fan of the series, but even at its discounted price I don't think Mafia III is worth it. The story missions are far too few and far apart, they're not the usual showpieces they've been in previous games, and 90% of the game is the standard open world cleanup poo poo you'd do for achievement hunting in any other game. That said, if its sale price is low enough for your "just to see" qualifications, buy it. But I sincerely do not believe it's a game you should EVER play at ANY price. You can spend that money elsewhere.

Imo they hosed up Mafia 3 as badly as Mafia 2 but in different ways. It's like they noted the criticizm that there was nothing to do in the previous game outside of the main missions so they developed the side content and...forgot to create the main missions. Fuckng hell man. I still enjoyed the game as much as I enjoyed Mafia 2 but there was a lot of groaning at the screen.

How about driving games? I don't have a wheel but I played the heck out of Colin McRae Rally back in the day. I'm looking at Project Cars, Dirt Rally and F1 2016. I've played Dirt 3 and quite liked it.

Dirt Rally does only one thing and does it INCREDIBLY well. CARs does lots of things very well but it's a little rough to get into for my tastes. It felt like it's aimed at those who have been doing it for years and doesn't teach newcomers very well.

Mafia III is probably the only open world game I've finished just to see where the story went. The music, characters and acting are so loving good; but as Palpek says I was just groaning every time they sent me on another samey sidemission just to progress the main quest.
