Why did Steam stop doing the daily/flash sales? That made this whole thing more exciting and enticing.
they went away when refunds were introduced

Someone suggested Darkest Dungeon to me a while back. Games looks hella tedious, is this a proper view?

i guess it depends on what you find tedious...

it is a fairly popular game so clearly some people enjoy it

Just curious but what was being abused by refunds that made them take it out? I mean I'm perfectly fine with not having to be online at the right moment to get a game for it's lowest price.

i assume they just didnt want to deal with the refund requests that would be generated

they're loving charging for it? After getting rid of the RMAH where I could fleece rubes with clever arbitrage opportunities? loving hell.

the price is stupid (i dont even really play it anymore but i might have checked out the necro if it was like $5) but the rmah was the worst thing in the world

I sort of like roguelikes (Shiren the wanderer on the DS for example) for the occasional play and was thinking of getting Swords of the Stars The Pit. I am confused however, there is a gold edition and a bundle that has the gold edition and more dlc. Which one should I get?

And what other good roguelikes are there? (I prefer good graphics, nothing with Ascii code like minimalist stuff, that's just not appealing to me)

the pit is garbage stay away

check out dungeonmans, tales of maj'eyal (can play for free on their website), sproggiwood, and caves of qud

I was just poking around for stuff and may have found a pricing error. The Shadowrun Complete collection is on sale for under $3 (86% off) and includes all of the recent Shadowrun games. The individual games are on sale for significantly more than that (Hong Kong is $7.50 for the version of the game in the bundle plus another $2 for the pdf book that you'll never look at which is also in the bundle). Not a bad deal if you're at all interested in it.

do you already own most of the bundle? i have the original one and dragonfall already and its 6.77 for me

That reminds me, Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition is 75% off, just get that one instead.

ultimate edition is 50% (10bux) only the base game is 75% so they can trick you into buying the dlc later at 40% lol

Also I don't know if anyone plays it anymore but Humble Bundle has Killing Floor for FREE and doesn't require another purchase to get it.

Killing Floor 2 is 50% off, which is identical to Steam's sale so I don't know why they bothered

if they are the same price you should buy the humble one since they donate to charity

I'm the last person to ask for recommendations and typically the first to give them... but I've been known to have a blind spot or two so I'm gonna ask this thread and see what ya'll come up with. For science.

I'm looking for a game with a really tight dungeon crawling loop similar to what end-game Diablo 3 is right now, but distilled into its purest form. Essentially, a dungeon crawler that isn't a rogue-like or rogue-lite, which is what most of them seem to be nowadays. I want RNG loot, properly feeling more powerful and turning once-difficult enemies into trash mobs through just a couple levels or loot upgrades. It's very likely that I'm looking for an indie title that flew under the radar, since I typically am the radar. Also, if the game lasted more than a few hours, that'd be nice. Plot not necessary, though some kind of variety to the combat and enemies is a plus. First person, third person, top down, I don't care, it's the loop I'm looking for. Surprise me!
diablo 3 is throwing me off here because i wouldnt really call that dungeon crawling. do you actually want an arpg type thing?
