Haha, damn all of you for making me consider these cheap < $0.50 games for the +1. Especially my Steam friends for filling up the activity log. I keep closing the purchase window out of [customspoiler=shame.]

Heads up, I just grabbed Blood of the Werewolf for a buck and it gave me $5 promotional credit for the appstore, so if anyone's got an Android, pretty solid.

Gotta use it relatively fast though, July 31st 2014.

EDIT: Wrong thread, was referring to buying the game on Amazon. You folks get it.

So is it on Amazon at that price or the Steam store? Kinda hard to believe that Amazon and Valve are in cahoots.

buying with steam card money is cheaper than buying the inevitable bundle with real money.

I was about to call you some bad names when the credit hadn't appeared for 15 minutes, but I just got the e-mail for the $5 App credit. And also another $1 MP3 credit..

Can confirm it works. Good deal. I'll crosspost for you.

Shame was a poor choice. Ambivalence is probably more accurate, but I just tossed that out the window by picking up a handful of games I'll think about playing but really won't with GabeN currency (good call sunasun).

Also, I have no shame in posting [customspoiler=this.]

So I really want to get the Playfirst games, especially the ones $1.25 and under, but it's just hard to believe these won't all show up in bundles soon enough.  And I could even see a Bundlestars Playfirst HOG bundle, just having all of them together.  Decisions, decisions.

Are you thinking of Strategy First? The Playfirst games aren't really on sale.

If so, I'd definitely grab the two that have Playfire rewards (Empress of the Deep 1 &amp; 2). Strategy First always has games in bundles, so it's a safe bet you'll see them in one again. Even if they're bundled though, I think it's a fairly safe bet to get the ones that are 90% off or &lt;.50. Bundling wouldn't make them much cheaper than that.

I'm still feeling uncertain about these two specifically because of bundle-buyer's remorse. It looks like SF recently got a metric-crapton of HOG and adventure games on Steam (greenlit?), and because SF stuff has historically been ridiculously cheap (and highly variable in quality) I don't know if I want to shell out for them or wait.

Yup, that's what I meant. Those are my feelings as well, I think they're just trolling before the inevitable bundle/bundling.

Every time I come back to Marvel Heroes when I get one of those weekly emails about the "super free stuff you can get for playing this weekend," it looks like an epileptic's worst nightmare with an overly-confusing interface, so I spend a couple of minutes piddling around trying to remember what person or thing I have to find to get to a place where I'm supposed to be questing, can't find it, and quit and do something else.
Click to expand...
Cannot see how you find the interface confusing... Its built just like Diablo's. The game does play a hell of allot quicker than anything I've played in the loot/hack genre.

My biggest problem with the game is that they add shit/change stuff weekly that if you don't keep up you'll log in to see all of your hero's build has been whipped clean and you have to rebuild them. And if you care to have a powerful build you pretty much have to go to a forum to find one. (There's no easy way to test stuff as once you commit you commit and retcon devices are not free.)

I usually just log in and feel very tired all of a sudden.

Wait, they changed things from the comics!? In a television adaptation!!?
Click to expand...
Yup, but considering the ones most likely looking forward to it are those fans there pretty much this shooting themselves in the foot... Undoubtedly, changes are going to happen, it is expected (as you sarcastically pointed out), but you have to show some reverence to the source material or your going to alienate the people most likely to watch.

Not that it much matters... Its on Fox, its as good as cancelled already.

In my defense Valve gave it to me. I got it from crafting coal. Coal would have been better.

I noticed that too. Also works on boxed retail apparently. Some people on Reddit posted about Godfather II by EA for the PC cheap for 5 'dollar on Amazon and apparently it activates to Origin even though they don't sell it anymore.

Oh and isn't Blood of the Werewolf on Amazon that crappy Telltale DRM?

You're talking about the big circles and quickbar buttons at the bottom. I'm talking about every other bit and bob on the screen: the six pull-out menus, the inventory screen with its own 30 buttons that do different things, etc. And I was alluding to the fact that there seem to be three NPCs for every function that normally are handled by one in other MMOs like currency trading, item-selling, transport to different zones, et cetera. If you spend a little bit of time playing, as I did, and step away for months, as I did, it's quite perplexing. Also I'm old.

And there are usually 500 different players logged in when I log in and all of them are saying something and at least 120 of them look exactly alike.

But I agree with that last statement.

EDIT: And this is all also probably true of pretty much any MMO unless you dedicate yourself to it in a way that I pretty much never have with anything except LOTRO.

Blood of the Werewolf is available to download off Amazon, I think, but the purchase also includes a Steam key, which Enhanced Steam tells me there's no additional launcher.

Also, fixed. :bouncy:

I get what your talking about now... Yeah, no real argument from me any of that... as for it being true across all MMOs... I don't know I don't really play them but I feel its got to be worse with Gazillion. They have the habit of making changes. Aka that gear vendor might be so and so today but be someone else a month later... and there locations have been known to change about too.

Not that it matters but there's one person for each function at each hub... and some extras scattered about.

I'm pretty sure the fact you continue to bring this up months later, and that I was never mad in the first place shows that I'm not the one holding onto a grudge here.
 
Here's why you shouldn't buy games from g2a and steer clear of unauthorized key resellers in general.

https://twitter.com/devolverdigital/statuses/466577590606520320

Because tweet embedding can be finicky:

@devolver said:

"Devolver Digital games purchased on @G2A_com are not legitimate, not guaranteed, and not supported. We are actively canceling those keys.

Devolver Digital will not cancel active products gamers own but cannot guarantee delivery/authenticity of keys from unauthorized retailers.

To clarify, we'd never cancel a game someone purchased - it is not the gamers fault. We aim to cancel unused keys obtained fraudulently."

Interesting. I always assumed G2A was just mostly buying bundles and reselling the keys.

Also, got my Spice Road key today via email. Worked fine so they were very quick about it.

 
warreni said:
Do you have to request a key from the dev or something for this? I think I have this from an IR.
Click to expand...
I think if you have it from IR you can pull it directly from Desura. I had it from groupees so I had to install the game partly, then get my "CD Key" from desura, then input the CD Key into the special steam key redemption site, then got a Steam key which was invalid so I then had to email them and they emailed me a new key.

 
Two questions:

1) Is this a good deal or should I wait for $5 GOTY?

2) If I didn't like FTL (and I'm leaning in that direction), will I not like Desktop Dungeons?

 
warreni said:

Click to expand...
Good deal, yes. But, the DLC is pretty decent. I like Corvo's story in the base game better, but prefer Daud's combat in the DLC. And Dunwall City trials is a good place to play around with abilities and play styles you may not have tried in the main game.
