Steam Summer sale 2024

[Gozuk]

The sale is on..

What are we buying?

[GinnasP99]

Considering getting the last two rimworld dlc, Biotech and Anomaly, doubt they're on sale tho. Rimworld stuff is like never on sale.

Also got my eye on Songs of Syx, I heard that was pretty good.

[magnetaress]

Probably not avowed.

[Arteker]

Rogue Trader, fallout1-2 on 40k franchise yes yes
Caesar III- Still imo the best city builder, anno are close behind.
Wasteland 3 with all the dlcs

[GinnasP99]

This overhaul mod for darkest dungeon looks pretty sick.

I forgot all about that game, great suggestion I used to love it.

I would recommend anyone pick up Dungeon Siege II, it's selling for a buck. Action RPG where you add party members with different specializations (healer, tank, melee, ranged, caster etc.) as you progress through the game and you build and gear them just like your own character only you pick some skills for them to auto-cast. The character and gear progression is also very intuitive, you don't need a guide or anything.

Check GOG for prices before you dive in on some of the oldies.

I've gone massive so far and broke the bank in the amount of $6.98 on "Papers, Please" and "Punch Club." I have a decent backlog already but I'll give them a shot soon.

What's up BTW Ginnas.. Good to see you around

Halflife 2 orange box and counterstrike source. Used to play them a lot but didn’t have them on my account. It also included episodes 1 and 2. I also picked up CSGO as it was pennies.

A more modern(!) game I got was the expansion (or ‘dlc’) for Baldur’s Gate EE that fills in the gap between BG and BG II.

Considering Shootas, Blood and Teef (or whatever it is called) but have worries it may be too much of a distraction for me.

Thief is like 2 dollars

Pick up the original Dues Ex if you never played it also if it's cheep.

I might just do this. I've never played it. "Game of the Year Edition" is on sale for $0.97... that the one?

do it

best game ever made i think

well ok best game no

best crazy hijinks of a story with deep plot twists you can discover... yes (save scum a lot!) there are multiple endings and multiple solutions to everything the game rewards effort and allows you to challenge yourself extra hard if you want I won't spoil ! pretty solid gameplay its not too bad in other words :p

I just picked up these:

Darkest Dungeon got great reviews, and basically looks like modern remake of Wizardry (with "lose your sanity" mechanics)

Stardew Valley - everyone seems to love this game, so I finally decided to give it a shot

Haven - An RPG about two lovers escaping to an alien planet from an oppressive government (and that government sending people after them) ... it has a co-play mode and the romance angle, so I figure I have maybe a 15% chance of talking the wife into playing it with me :) (she's not a gamer)

Also I'm probably going to pick up:

That cartoon was enough to get me to try the demo, and then even though it seems like more of a choose-your-own-adventure than an actual video game, whatever it was piqued my interest.

One of my favorite games of all time. I've played a ton on PC and currently playing co-op on the XBox with my wife. Great game solo or multiplayer.

Cool, I didn't know it had a multiplayer mode. If Haven doesn't work out ... :D

Yeah it was something they added after release. I believe it's up to 8 players on PC and up to 4 couch co-op for Xbox or Playstation. It's free on Gamepass if you're an Xbox guy.

Ok so I bought Deus Ex.. $0.97 I couldn't pass it up. Looks pretty cool.

[Swish]

They only managed 50% off on Day Z :o

[Topgunben]

Stalcraft - and yes i did spell that correctly.

If you like MMOs, challenging and unfair gameplay, and first person shooters, then try this out. Its one of my favorite games of all time.

And its free to play, not pay to win at all.

[Gozuk]

2 Days left. I bought XCom 2 and an expansion since I've never played it before.

[Topgunben]

Just bought:
Pathfinder Kingmaker bundle
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Bundle

[Toxigen]

just bought fertilizer for the grass im touching

[Ekco]

i wonder if the FBI gets an alert when Toxigen buys fertilizer

[Trexller]

I imagine the ATF gets a report anytime anyone buys just medium quantities of anything that can go boom

The typical person has no need for ammonium nitrate at all, so i would assume that the ATF tracks every purchase to make sure the buyer is at least a legitimate farmer or industrial processor

Im just assuming ofc, because thats what mcveigh used for the OKC bombing

Before they close the door...

Legend of Keepers (3 DLCs, already had the game)
Pillars of Eternity 2 (played the first one, coming late to the sequel)

Came close to Baldur's Gate 3 but I've still got plenty to play :D
