Am I misinterpreting things, or is it actually cheaper to get the large Hitman bundle rather than the Hitman GOTY bundle?

How is Osiris: New Dawn if I'm gonna just play single player? It looks cool and I seem to enjoy early access survival games.

Wiggly Wayne DDS posted:you're not misinterpreting. a large amount of games have bundles or collections that have an additional discount on top of each individual item. worth digging into the game's storepage to look for better deals that way Totally this. I got another $2 off of Steamworld Dig 2 because I owned the other Steamworld games.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/23530/Earth_Defense_Force_Insect_Armageddon/ Get the older EDF game for $1. The DLC costs another dollar.

I've been way more into consoles this past year and didn't pay any attention to PC releases. It's been long enough that a lot of stuff seems to be a weirdly lovely deal compared to Steam sales as I've traditionally known them, which sounds like it's been a trend over however long. Did anything really noteworthy come out for PC this (or even the latter half of last) year that's at a decent discount right now that I should pick up?

Rip TWwarhams 2 is only 10% off on steam. I may have to abandon my overlord for a third party site.

It can be played solo, but co-op is the preferred way to play them. I'd suggest watching a few videos of it online first to see if it looks like fun to you. Be warned, they are known for their jank.

Pretty good but no Monolith 6/10 (Get Dead Cells maybe? Dead Cells is great. D:OS2 is amazing but it's only 10% off.)

I've seen some gameplay before and have been interested in trying one, so that sounds good thanks.

Morrowind is my favorite game of all time, so you should totally buy it. Will second Dungeonmans as a near perfect roguelike if you like roguelikes or want a good introduction to them.

Gat out of Hell is boring and super derivative. Unless you're crazy in love with SR, you can give it a pass. It does nothing well, and would more appropriately be DLC for SR3/4.

cities skylines is a bit iffy - it's a relaxing city simulator but the challenge is ankle-deep. Unless you like managing traffic. It's not bad, but it's also not that great either. Expect to be drawing a lot of roads and not really paying any mind where to place them. Divinity original sin 2 is glorious though.

It's so weird Nier Automata isn't on sale. Is there any way for Canadians gift Americans things on Steam? It keeps saying I can't because of price differences.

I would've been happy to shill for my game of the year if it had only seen a discount. I've had stuff gifted back and forth between Canada and the US in the not too distant past, have you tried buying it to your Steam inventory or whatever and gifting from there? vvv: Oh gross, so much for that then.

You can't buy to your inventory anymore or gift when the price difference is greater than 10% or something now.

Cuntellectual posted:It's so weird Nier Automata isn't on sale. Sadly, nope. What I have to do now is look at someones wishlist, cross-reference that with isthereanydeal.com, and see if anything looks good. It's even tougher when gifting to other countries than the US, as many sites have region restrictions. It's saved me a good $1000 in the past 2-3 sales, but it sucks that gifting is so gimped now for us

I hope Valve enjoys their imperceptibly minuscule financial loss, then.  Meldonox posted:Right? It's been on sale like a half dozen times for PS4 since April or May. I would've been happy to shill for my game of the year if it had only seen a discount. It was far from my favorite game of the year but I know a few people who'd have loved it. I just can't bring myself to spend $80+ on one game anymore.

doctorthefonz posted:i kind of went to bat for Civ VI in the video games deals thread having put 600 hours into V but i reckon if you've never played a civ before then eighteen clams for the nicest looking new one isn't really a bad intro even if V feels, understandably given its expansions, More Complete I just want to reiterate that Civ VI is so bad that you shouldn't even consider buying it yet. If anyone hasn't played civ V with the brave new world expansion, do that. Also please don't buy Civ: Beyond Earth, it's also bad.

I love the cycle of Civ games where the worst one is what was just released and the best one is the last expansion.

Sigourney Cheevos posted:Gat out of Hell is boring and super derivative. Unless you're crazy in love with SR, you can give it a pass. It does nothing well, and would more appropriately be DLC for SR3/4. Hey now, the flying was good. Also if you're a mega-dork like me and want to see another take on SR4's superpower stuff, I think the hell powers, weapons, and overall combat feel better and more fleshed out (actual enemy variety!). But the game is absolutely 85% flying or shooting, 5% additional activities, 10% phoned-in plot that's only notable for one or two funny moments and somewhat inexplicably leading into Agents of Mayhem. As long as you know what you're getting into, it's not the worst way to spend $4~.

Siralim 2 is loving awesome. I bought battle brothers and some other small stuff like all the DROD I didn’t already own. Battle brothers is as good as advertised, goddamn.

I've been looking forward to Gorogoa for a while and it has not failed to impress. It's a fresh take on the hidden object genre where you slide frames and panels around to create new scenes. Isn't too challenging so far but it's beautifully drawn, totally surreal, and absolutely chill. Highly recommended (fart of presto I know you're reading this).

Some tough calls to make this year - I am downloading the Prey demo as I am hesitant to see how it runs on a GTX 660, but if that doesn't work out I'll definitely have to go with the new South Park. The first game was absolutely hilarious. Hopefully the combat has improved a bit from the first one.

It's the biggest sale yet for South Park, but if it has the same price trend as the previous game, it'll be pretty rock bottom by next year.

The combat in the new south park game is better and more balance so on the hardest difficulty you don't rofl stomp the encounters in the first turn. Some people were unhappy in how funny it was but I thought it was just as good or even better with the humour. Prey is a really good value for its cost.

Prey is quite well optimized for a wide range of lovely hardware, I played through it with GTX 950m and it was just fine. Well, there was one big gas explosion (not necessary, just a mistake from me) that tilted my machine so bad that for a while I was worried that I can't even re-boot it. But I was just imagining it

Hello fellow humans, here I am recommending a great game that we all enjoy: Dogolrax. Currently on sale for only a fifth of its true value, Dogolrax is a game that will be at home in any game library. Buy Dogolrax today.
