Steam Summer Sale 2017 - 22nd June

[sswats]

europa universalis is tempting but a lot of recent negative reviews saying moneygrab DLC and patches have ruined the game.

 

[Mark A]

I love it when you can sell a bunch of cards and buy a game with the proceeds. Just managed to get £3 odd abd bought Outlast which has been on my wishlist for a while. Still got a load of games idling now so might have another couple of quid soon.

I have crusader kings 2 and just couldn't get into it. But throw me a civ game and it's one of my favourite series of games

I think I'll give POE a miss

Crusader Kings is a very different style of game to Europa Universalis, as it focuses a lot more on characters and their political interactions... whereas in Europa Universalis, in its most simplistic form, you essentially pick a country and try to destroy everything around you with or without the help of other countries.
There's less focus on building your cities up than Civilization (you can spend points on development and buy a few buildings that increase income, add forts to block enemy movement, or increase manpower), more of the focus is on declaring war on a neighbouring country and negotiating with them for the surrender of their land and/or money... or you can force them to be your subject if they're small enough.

I've had pillars of Eternity recommended to me also.

I could do with a game outside of my comfort zone.

Was kind of hoping for Divinity Original Sin 2 to be cheap, but as it's early access that was slightly ambitious!

Edit: If anyone's not played the first one, it's on sale for £12 and is fantastic. Games rarely hold my attention for more than 20 hours or so, but my housemate and I played through it in couch co-op and sunk the best part of 90 hours into it.

 

[Junglist]

I have no idea what I want and feel I'll just be buying for the sake of buying. tempted by..

The Division - Had it on PS4 and traded it in as found it boring but I have a friend who plays it occasionally on PC.
Miscreated - Had my eyes on this game for a long while now but DayZ has burned me on the survival genre. Seems to be too many of them now.
Bloodbowl - I played the Bloodbowl Manager card game and really enjoyed it. While I know this is nothing like that, I'm still tempted to give it a go.

 

[iamthenugget]

tempted by sniper ghost warrior 3. loved the 2nd game. has anyone played it yet??

It's £9 on cdkeys.

 

[bulletv1]

I got Domina for £3.49 and I'm finding it quite fun. Got Arma 3 and DLC bundle 1 in my basket for £15.28. Question is, is it worth it? I don't have any friend that play it or are interested in it.

 

[Carbon Copied]

It's £9 on cdkeys.

Thanks for that - just bought there instead of steam!

 

[Putty]

Pillars of Eternity can be quite good at times however the story can get a bit iffy.

Tempted with Nier:Automata however it still seems a bit pricey - is it worth it for the amount of gameplay that you can get out of it?

<Edit> Scratch that - I've just had a read through the dedicated thread, looks as though it's going to be a purchase

 

[Nate75]

meh caved in and bought "the other" Wonder Boy remake:

[molinari]

Anyone recommend the best S.T.A.L.K.E.R game, or a newer alternative in the same genre that is single player?

 

[Mark1989]

Only bought sleeping dogs so far finished it before but always wanted another play through

 

[Divinious]

[Jamesyboyjim]

Have you seen the price of the link on the steam sale?

Its also £11.99 at Game I personally found it hard to find stock near me though.

 

[Uhtred]

I picked up a link and a controller from my local game at lunch time. Looking forward to trying it out
