Just got a copy of Gemini Rue.

I see how Steam makes it's profits. With games these cheap they become impulse buys.


Gemini Rue is really great. You will like it you should also look at the Blackwell Legacy more adventure games from the those devs.

Picked up Two Worlds II myself at $10 for the Velvet Edition I couldn't pass it up.

This, I like[/quote]

IF there are any other adventure games like this, I'll be all over them. There's also the added benefit that Steam has all 4 games bundled together. *buys*:D

I do the same as Naughty99 (curious to have that name and a hanar avatar at the same time) everything I buy on steam goes into the inventory until I want to play it. That way I can always pass it on in some trade.

I really want to like the Two Worlds games but they're horrible, IMO. Usually I can look past a game with flaws with so much content. I mean, Skyrim is an amazing game but loaded with flaws. But my god. Two Worlds takes the concept from Bethesda of piling content on you and not polishing it to an entirely different level...

Anyways, deals look meh today. Maybe I'll pick Borderlands up but I played it on PS3 and felt that it was a Diablo without any depth. Does it have plenty of mods on PC?

And would you guys recommend any of those indie games on sale, specifically the indie pack 3?

I was hoping that Q.U.B.E. game won the community vote instead of Plant vs. Zombies, it looked fun.

It has polished shooting gameplay but all the builds are the same outside random loot drops. It has no variety in skill trees.

Also, it's one of the few games I've ever played where I fell asleep in my chair. I was trying to play SP and it had literally nothing going on...bored me to tears. It's strictly a online game and if it still has a active community, I'd consider buying it.

Out of those games, the one I'm really curious about is Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet. It's a well-received Metroid-esque game iirc

So Civilization V is a flash deal currently with everything 75% off except the expansion. I did find a website where I bought Gods and Kings for a friend for less than $12. It's one of those Russian key sites but the game was successfully added to his account and its region free!

And Legend of Grimrock is up for a community vote! Get your votes in for a 60% discount so you can buy it for $5!

I love anything and all things Cyberpunk, so any games in that theme that are PC exclusives, throw 'em at me!


Are you familiar with E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy? I bought this game about a year ago, but haven't had a chance to try it yet.

From the title I think it has something to do with a cyberpunk setting, but I'm not exactly sure. I seem to recall it was made by an indie developer from France.

There is a demo available now btw so you can give it a shot Andoid.

Having actually played the game to max level several times including all DLC, I can only tell you that you're just plain wrong there. The 4 characters play very differently. They start out pretty much the same though.

Also, it's one of the few games I've ever played where I fell asleep in my chair. I was trying to play SP and it had literally nothing going on...bored me to tears. It's strictly a online game and if it still has a active community, I'd consider buying it.


Obviously not the game for you then. I loved it to bits and was bored before the end of Diablo 3 myself (same thing with Diablo 2 in fact, although this is probably blasphemy). Sure the Diablo games also have skill trees and lots of loot, but the gameplay in Borderlands is very different.

I enjoy playing it solo myself, and I think the online part is a bit of a failure, considering all the exploits and ways to mess with other people's characters. It's so bad I don't dare to play it with strangers at all.

Edit: What is this stuff about Legend of Grimrock being up for community vote? It was already dirt cheap.

Especially if you're in the euro zone - you might find out a GOG sale is around the corner, and get the same games for half the price.

I'd like you to give a single example where this is the case

Torchlight's normal price is 14.99 USD on GOG, on Steam it's 14.99 in euros. That's more than 22 dollars.

I saw some gameplay videos, and it seems very Deus Ex-ish. Which is a good thing. I'm watching that along with Civ V to see if they drop some between now and the end of the sale. Any recommendations on Civ V? I've never played a society builder like that, and have been wanting to.

Re-check the currency rates, 14.99€ is $18.38

Plus, once Torchlight is on sale on Steam, at what, 80% discount as it was when I bought it? Yeah, not gonna see GoG beat it

^^ Aah, euro has plummeted a bit.

1 euro used to be more than 1.5 dollars. A year ago I guess.
That's the euro-zone crisis for you.

Anyway, whilst Steam has the neat screenshot/workshop thing going on, GOG offers more extra goodies alongside.
Also it is fair and good in principle that GOG has all prices in dollars. I don't want to bother re-checking currency values every time I buy a game.

+ Steam has very many regional restriction. I cannot buy Skyrim nor Batman Arkham City from them. Why? Steam doesn't bother making negotiations and makes too far-reaching compromises with developers. + GOG is free of DRM and the client, I also trust in their testing of games more than I do Steam's. It is a selling-point that old games actually work well in GOG, on any newer Windows.

(the last paragraph is more as reasoning behind my neglecting Steam for the time being)


edit: ok, part of my resoning also involves the fact that I already have more games on Steam than I can possibly play - at least for this year. But there's much more GOG value-for-price in games, so when I'll start buying again it'll be either from them or Amazon. This last advertising of Steam that made people pay 5 euros/dollars for nothing is also pretty bothersome. As is the "community" of swindlers and cons who I am required to contact if I'd want Skyrim, Arkham City or such games...

That is all fine and good, you can have your reasons, and yes, GoG has many benefits Steam doesn't...

Just don't ever explicitly say that GoG is cheaper than Steam when comparing both sites' "most inexpensive sales". Because that smells of enough bias for me to need a gas mask

As far as I've played and heard, you're better off starting with Civ 4. I'd personally be hoping it will come on GOG soon (as their downloadable version is better to mod - and Civ 4 has awesome mods), but the complete edition is just 6.24 on Steam right now, with the single game for just 4.99. It's also $9.99 on Amazon if you'd like the physical boxed game.
