FrodoBaggins: More importantly, what did you buy in the GOG Summer sale recently?
Going to assume he would've put that in the GOG Summer Sale Haul thread :)

TheNerdyPlane: If you've still got any money, I'd recommend the Stalker series if you haven't already got them. They are really good Open World FPS set in a post-apocalyptic Chernobyl!
Have them, thanks! Just barely played them xD

Ember
for $2.50

Must say I'm quite enjoying it. It is RPG-lite in certain respects (gear, level-up options are just stats), but it reminds me vaguely of Divine Divinity in certain respects. Not the same, certainly, but about that same level of RPGing.

I have a bunch of Steam cards but have never figured out how/when to sell them. Looking it up, I have about 220 cards at .05-.20 each. Don't suppose there's a way to just batch post the lot of them?

I have no experience in card selling either, but Steam Inventory Helper looks like it might be somewhat what you're looking for.

Smannesman: snip
Will look into it, thanks!

Update - For whatever reason Steam wouldn't let me login so I changed my password. Now I'm blocked from trading for 5 days...soooooo guess I'm not selling items to spend in the summer sale anyway.

Will test out the extension whenever I can actually do it. Thanks again.

I've bought new games for the first time in literally years!

First I picked up This War of Mine, The Walking Dead: Season One and Grim Fandango in the GOG sale, and in the Steam sale I've picked up:

Football Manager 2017
Valiant Hearts: The Great War
Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
Life is Strange
Emily is Away Too


I seem to be on an adventure game binge.

tinyE: Gunpoint
Gunpoint is excellent!
I changed my mind and instead of Shadow of Mordor I picked Life is Strange, hope I will not get depressed by the ending of that one (but I have feeling that it will not end well :D)...
Haven't picked up anything for a couple of reasons. Got quite a few games during the GOG sale that I'd been planning to get at some point, so no need to get those from Steam; also means my backlog is quite loaded up, so a game has to be pretty compelling for me to get it at this point. Many of the games, even on sale, don't hit the $10 price point that a game needs to hit before I'll consider getting it from Steam. Several of the games I may have been interested in use Denuvo, which is an instant NOPE. Steam also is presenting their sale particularly well this year, and I don't feel like spending a bunch of time digging through their catalog to see if there's anything hidden in there I might want.

Pheace: So far only picked up 1 game:

Eador Imperium - 8.49 Euro (because of 15% extra bundle discount)
What's your opinion on this game? I enjoyed the original Eador a lot, but the new Eador games have been all over the place in terms of reviews. The Steam reviews for Imperium are glowing, while the GOG reviews mention a bunch of bugs- what's been your experience so far with it?
Well, I have a modest wishlist there and I feel really treated to buy the Bioshock Collection, That Dragon Cancer, Life is Strange and Xcom Enemy Unknow, but I will need to save my money, principally because I already bought some games in the summer sale of Gog.
Treated myself to $130 on games I bought on the GOG Summer Sale.............I didn't "Subscribe" to any games on the Steams Sale this year. I'm done with renting.

What Remains of Ediith Finch, The Sexy Brutale, and Death Road to Canada, all games I've had my eye on for a while. Although I'm trying to decrease my backlog, not go in the other direction...
I was thinking about getting Black Mesa because Xen was supposed to be released some time soon, but they've pushed it back to December (for now), so I guess it can wait.
Well I got myself only some DLCs for Saints Row 3( Bloodsucker and unblockable) and Steamworld Heists that I won yesterday on Steamgifts ( Outside and Hatful Eight +2)

Also bought Watch_Dogs but ended up refunding it. The hacking novelty weared off way too quickly, cars handle like ice skates and the protagonist is probably one of the worst written protagonists in a AAA game that I played ( he fucked up, his niece dies because of that and now he wants revenge and other people money aka he is a vigilante that wont mind to steal from other people just for the lolz)

Leroux: I finally pulled the trigger on Bombshell. Also bought Kyn and Stories: The Path of Destinies. Played about 15 minutes of each, then I decided to go for a refund, for the first time ever. I was already displeased with all three of them before I had actually pressed Play.
Got Kyn ( 2 years ago) and Stories ( this summer sale) and both games really disappointed me big time.. alas I got them on GOG and played them through(well I got only 5 endings in Stories - True ending + 4 others) .

In Kyn the crafting could really make stuff easy(and you have to craft using their shitty system). So easy that if you get your whole party with legendary gear the fights are over before you can cast any spell...

I didn't even give them a real chance, but good to know I didn't miss much.

Kyn already annoyed me by its lack of settings; I've forgotten if I encountered any issues with fullscreen mode or not, but I remember that I once got a black screen instead of the intro and had to restart for some reason, in any case, technically it made a bad impression on me. And I disliked that you could not pause the dialogue (at least at the beginning), the text was moving way too fast for me to feel comfortable reading it. And it felt kind of bland from the start.

Stories felt too much like it was copying the idea of Bastion, without really grasping what was fun about the narrator. What few I learned of the story in the beginning seemed muddled and unfocused (first he makes a big promise to his dying mother, than he makes a different big promise to his dying neighbour etc.). And the graphics were pretty ugly (and I'm not usually one to say this about graphics, I like a lot of old and low budget indie games with low resolution or pixel art, I don't mind early 2000's 3D graphics and so on, but I didn't like the style of Stories at all. The screenshots look much nicer than what I saw in-game.)

Steamworld Heist is a nice game though, so good on you for winning it. :)
