Steam Sale Episode XII: They Live

Can someone explain the game to me? I've tried playing it, but I have no idea what I'm supposed to do, and it seems to lag a lot.

Damn, Homeworld end up on sale so quickly...I end up stopped playing it even when I only played like 6 hours in because it keeps crashing in the Great Wasteland...I guess that's problem of early adopers.

It's basically a clicker. You can leave it to run overnight and it'll progress for you, and you can even add bonuses to affect your clicks.

I'm wondering whether or not to buy AC: Brotherhood. It's my favorite of the games (basically the entire Ezio Trilogy is my favorite bit that I've played, sans Black Flag) but I'm still skeptical about whether to buy it or wait for a better deal.

Oh from what I heard, GTA V and War Thunder premium packs actually jack up their price before going on sale...just a heads up.

Well, whatever that Monster Summer Game is it's ain't working for me. I press Play Now and nothing happens. Is it because I have a Mac?

I have a PC and it doesn't work for me. Well it did once, but nothing happened in the game and now it won't work for me anymore.

It's....

Not a very good game I'll be frank.

The clicking is added on with hundreds of other players leading to a culmination of individual upgrades being worth little in the grand scheme of things.

It's like a really watered down Cookie Clicker. At least its sorta better than last years gimmick.

The camp competition? Oh my, that was insane...

I missed things like the Summer Camp activities from a few years back.

I don't even really think I'm going to be participating, considering that Steam seemed to do well enough without my participation.

I mess around with the game just a little bit, improving my ability to contribute without actually playing.

I can't get it to run either, and I know my comp ain't outdated. I'm guessing the servers must be overloaded.

Is Pixel Piracy supposed to be good? It's real cheap and I might nab it.

Towerfall also looks like it could be a solid buy, as always.

It was a good game game for the $10, not great but a fair amount of fun. At the curent $1.99 sale price, it's a good deal and you won't feel upset about it.

I also nabbed Homeworld: Remastered Collection for $13.99, I never played the originals so my experience is fresh. And Torchlight II for $7.99 is great deal!

I'd also advise people to avoid Lucius II because it is meh, and is worse than the original (Which was meh too). Unless you like Good Bad Bugs...

Hmmm, I know that Metro: 2033 redux is a big improvement but is Last Light worth it if I already have the original version?

whats the chance of everything going back on sale during the final day, like with the christmas sale?

At this price I'd definitely get them even if you've got the old versions. Go for the bundle, this is one hell of a deal.

Yeah, I was leaning towards that just because of that discount. And I'll still have enough in my wallet to buy that Splinter Cell collection, even if it doesn't get any cheaper (I'm holding off on that to see if it gets better than 40% off).

Okay, so Hitman Absolution is out now. I'm thinking of buying it but should I play the others before I do?

Okay, so now we have:

• Child of Light (-75%)
• Democracy 3 (-75%)
• Depth (-60%)
• The Forest (-33%)
• Grey Goo (-60%)
• Hitman series (-80%)
• The LEGO Adaptation Game series (-25% to -75%)
• Mount & Blade series (-80%)
• NBA 2K15 (-75%)
• Portal series (-75%)
• Starbound (-33%)
• This War of Mine (-60%)
• Wasteland 2 (-50%)
• The Witcher series (-85%, except for 3 which is -10%)
• Wolfenstein series (-33% to -75%)

Sweet. Glad I waited on This War Of Mine since it was 50% off just yesterday. But now I'm wondering if I should wait on Homeworld HD and XCOM. They both are daily deals ending tomorrow, but I don't know if they'll become flash or community choice later.

If any of you don't have Sir You Are Being Hunted, it's part of the daily deal. $2. Get it, it's excellent.

Eh, it's personally not really my thing, though it does look interesting.

This is one of the times I'm annoyed at my only having a Mac because I can't buy every Hitman game in order to play through the whole series. Otherwise I'd prefer not to play it.

How is Child of Light? I'm interested in it but I'd have to use keyboard controls.
