I saw a streamer playing Wolfenstein: The New Order yesterday, was really surprised at the level of writing and voice acting. Really good stuff.

It's the part where you hijack the Sub in order to get to the underwater vault with uber tech in it, such as the hilarious bouncy box and the nanogrid armour thing they give to the paralyzed leader chick.

Wolfenstein: The New Order is a gem and you should all go buy it.

I don't usually buy games on these sales over 10 or 11 dollars unless I really really want that particular game, which is pretty rare. Right now, I have such a huge backlog of unplayed games that by the time I would even get around to playing some of them, another major sale or two would have come and gone and the prices for the more expensive games would have been reduced even more.

Can you still not sell games? That would be nice.

Might want to check out Pillars of Eternity. It's under $20 and a pretty good spiritual successor to BG. I was having a good time with it until the Witcher 3 DLC went on sale enough for me to buy it.

I have Pillars but lost interest some time after getting the keep thingy. If fine and all but the weird not quite D&D system just sat weird with me and made me feel like I had no understanding/control. Either I've outgrown interest in RPGs or they just don't make them in a way that I like anymore (I don't don't like 1st Person RPGs).

For me this is the saddest steam sale though. Hearts of Iron 4 is still way too much for me to consider and Steel Division is a measly $5 off. THe indie games that I have on my list are still too much (Hyperlight Drifter, Little Nightmares).

Euro Truck is legit first time I tried driving a big rear end 5 speed Ford F-350 dump truck with a trailer was a cakewalk and I had only ever driven stick like once ten years ago.

Ya already ahead of you on that one. Although it was more an 'unplanned departure from the runway on landing and collision with a runway light'. gently caress me that was a crosswindy day.

Welp. Plane was fixed with three rivets and something like airplane Bondo.

If you couldn't get into those games you'll probably not like Tyranny either.

Cool premise but lots of similar clunky mechanics

I see a game that looks cool and it's on sale 75% off so gently caress it I'll buy it. But I don't have time to play right now so I want to keep it in my inventory. Maybe time passes and I decide I want to play it so I redeem the game. Maybe instead a friend's birthday is coming up or I see something I'd rather have more - well gently caress, I can just trade this game that I bought while on sale. What a fantastic system. It actually feels like....owning a product? Woah!

I was just about to buy LA Noire, but I saw some comments about how you have to log into some ancient, undependable server that never remembers your username and password every time you play it, and there are graphical / framerate glitches even on a gtx1070 and i7 6700K (very close to my specs).

I'm amazed that publishers are allowed to sell games that are fundamentally broken on newer systems.

Looks like I'm buying Human Fall Flat instead.

they make no sense at all and they changed the wording on what the actions do so when you think you've selected something reasonable you assault them

Found this on reddit, dunno if it's true or not: "The game originally had different labels for the choices for how you could react to statements. The choices were 'coax' (truth), 'force' (doubt), and 'lie' (which didnt change). The change was made somewhat late in development, so the acting and dialog were largely unchanged. While the lying option didn't change, and coaxing the truth out of someone isn't too different in tone compared to believing someone is telling the truth, doubt and force are in no way similar."
