Steam/PC Mega Thread

Oh man that's great, Little King's Story was so good.

[Rocky]

Just signed up for the Humble Monthly and I don't play the Grimrock games or much in the way of RPG's so I have a copy of Legend of Grimrock II to give out. Just let me know here and I'll send it your way.

[Ruki]

If nobody has claimed it, and nobody wants it, I will gladly take it :)

[Benji]

People who bought Arkham Knight on PC are eligible for a full refund until the end of the year.

I got the game from CDKeys.com, so I'm almost certainly not eligible. It's a bit of a shame, but I got a great deal on the game in the first place, and I was able to just about get through it without too many issues, so I'm not going to complain.

[King Ellis]

Didn't they give out the other games in the series just recently to people who bought it on Steam?

Makes me wonder if they'll turn around and say "Oh, you redeemed that free gift. You waived your right to a refund by accepting that as compensation!"

[Herr Matzat]

Anno 2205 anyone? I like it a lot so far but i am only a few hours in.

[Benji]

I've never played Anno, seems like there's a lot of them. Is it like Civ?

[lanky316]

From my experience of the series it's a little bit hit and miss from one version or the other so always a bit hesitant.

@Benji The Friendly Ghost it's been more of a city builder, so kind of like the Caesar or Tropico games rather than the Civ approach. As the name would suggest this one is set in the future.

[Rocky]

The first Humble Monthly has dropped and the games are decent. You definitely get your moneys worth and it supports charity so I guess there's that.
Legend of Grimrock II (Pre-Order Bonus), Saints Row IV, Towerfall Ascension, Besiege (This looks fun), Valkyria Chronicles, Lethal League and SanctuaryRPG

[Quom]

Meh, only things I'd want are Besiege and Lethal League (perhaps). I feel like their Indie Bundles in the past have been stronger, cost far less for BTA, and didn't require blind purchasing. I'm kind of glad the hints on Twitter were legit and stopped me ordering it. 

[Rocky]

Yuh.. They're the only two that have got me interested. I didn't know of anything that was coming for it. I should've looked around more. But what's done is done :/

[Dan]

I picked it up, only game I had already was SR4 so it worked out well.

Seems like there have been 2204 previous games. Not sure where to jump in.

[Herr Matzat]

Yeah, this dossent have a LootCrate feel at all. I think it´s just based on the fact that to much of this PC shit has either been on a very good discount... i got 608 games on steam and 300+ games via PS+ asides "normal" digital and non digital games i bought... i guess i got lucky as in i only own two of the games... but i am not sure if my computer is even able to run Saints  Row 4 (3 was already a bit shaky on medium settings)... maybe i need to check some of the games out first before i am to down on it, but i surely would not have payed 12$ on first sight for this bundle even though the games i know and own are not bad at all/very well reviewed.

Edit
Actually i am way to down on this. It´s a bunch of very interesting games. Just in a month like this it feels even more unnecesary as normal bundles.

Blind buying bundles makes no sense. It's too likely I'll have most of the games I'm interested in already. 

[apsham]

So for some actual Steam based news - the way that they do sales will now be changing.

Instead of having flash sales, specials of the day and any other instance where the prices go lower for a limited amount of time without the sale itself - anything that will go on sale will be at its "most competitive price" for the duration of the sale. Things will still be featured on the front page, but they won't be any cheaper before or after.

[Quom]

I don't like that change it also makes me wonder if they got rid of their psychologist. I liked it being an 'event' now it will just be 'check it out, buy what you want then go play it'.

[Ruki]

I really dislike that change. Now I will be less tempted to pick up a game on a whim.
