Steam autumn sale...

Flarecobra · 11-25-2015, 03:13 PM

The Steam Autumn sale is on... with some changes. For example, no Flash Sales or Daily Deals. Instead, what percent off they are... is the lowest they'll be.

Still... GRID Autosport for 10 bucks... So tempted...but...college classes... Damn you Gabe! Why must you make games so affordable!

I want to get Life is Strange since this is the first time the entire season has a discount (before all they ever discounted was the first episode) but I'm not going to have time to play it between exams/projects coming up and Just Cause 3 coming out next week.

So I'm going to wait for the inevitable xmas sale to pick that up, and maybe DMC4:SE if I get any steam gift cards for xmas.

I wonder why they're changing the daily/flash sales. I feel like they encourage spending more than a regular sale, but what do I know.

Also: Tales from the Borderlands is 50% off and worth every penny.

The Pros so far: Holy moly so many games are 50-80% off! Time to stock up on lengthy adventure games and rpgs for the long barren winter.

The Cons: Shadowrun Hong Kong is cheaper than when I bought it at the Halloween sale, and the games I decided NOT to get at Halloween are now more expensive. I have chosen poorly.

Due to the refund policy people no doubt ended up buying and refunding alot, really it just punishes people that dont check back every 12 hours and figure alot of people, if they miss a flash sale just wont buy it at all.

This may help.

I was considering a IWbtG-type game called Eryi's Action for $2, but Super Meat Boy is also $2. I don't have Meat Boy. I should probably get that.

Just to make sure, but the computer Left4Dead games (as opposed to the console versions) don't have local split-screen co-op, right? 'Cause I wanted to get those finally, but if the only multiplayer is online then there's not much of a reason for me to do so.

Yeah it's all online multiplayer in the PC versions.
