    You meant the cheapest drug, right? Factorio is addicting.

        I think I will get:

        • The Caligula Effect: Overdose
        • Death end re;Quest
        • Death end re;Quest 2
        • Fate/EXTELLA
        • Fate/EXTELLA LINK

        The problem is I have many games unplayed in my backlog.

          Zone of the enders is one of my favorite games of all time. The combat is unmatched imo. Still love how fast that combat was, dragonball z on mechs basically. So fun.

          I went back to play the PS2 game and it's pretty fun, but I read the Steam port has tons of issues. Have you tried it?

            Summer Stale.

            I miss the old sales, when games had deep discounts and the deals cycled like every 2/4/6/8 hours.

            People got wise to it lol. People were posting flowcharts about not buying games until they were on flash deals if you want them. Also some years I think they did something that led people to believe only having specific games on your wishlist was advantageous which led to people removing everything from their wishlist except for stuff that was more expensive. That disproportionately hurt indie devs.

            All in all I think I'm glad it's gone. Plus the games (like that racing thing) never made sense to me.

              Do you have evidence to support that the flash deal prices aren't the prices that are there for the entire length of the sale now?

                  Sounds like they lost their lawsuit then, if their post is three years old and the devs are publicly encouraging people to commit crimes.

                  Just because something is legally correct doesn't mean it is ethical. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it is immoral.

                    Why is Persona 3 Portable more expensive than Persona 4 Golden? Why is SEGA being so stingy with only a 20% discount. Another 5% (on the SALE price) if we use the Persona bundle. Why SEGA...? It's the oldest and ugliest one. Why...

                      i remember one year there was a game i wanted all year

                      and it came up on flash sale finally for like 95% off, and steam shit the bed for two hours and I couldnt check out, presumably from the crush of purchase attempts.

                      I emailed and asked if they'd honor the price given the issues on their side, and they said no, I missed the sale. Not gonna lie, that kinda heated me up quite a bit, cause I didnt miss the damn sale, I wasnt able to check out cause their end shit itself.

                        Sadly nothing as I'm kinda broke. Got enough in my backlog to see me through though.

                            I'm guessing minecraft beats it. Or if you look at an individual player with thousands of hours it's probably one of the mario speedrunners.

                                  Or we can be upset that some devs never put their games on sale when tons of others do. I don't care if it's considered "the best game ever made" by gamers who are already fans of factory-type games, that argument doesn't hold any water for someone who's a fan of other genres like RPGs or shooters.

                                  Also, their "reasoning" that it's unfair to people who paid full price is bullshit and you know it. Tainted Grail had its full release last month, along with a price increase, but the game had gone on sale multiple times between the EA and full releases. Abiotic Factor is doing the exact same thing, and also had sales in between the EA release and full game. There's no real reason that it shouldn't go on sale at least once a year or something. If you miss a sale, that's on you.

                                    Aa per the FAQ on their website, Factorio will never go on sale.

                                    Which is kinda stupid imo. If you want more people to try and buy your game, you should at least put it on sale once a year.

                                      Supreme Commander is good. It is the closest modern-ish game to Total Annihilation that I've seen.

                                        They’ve sold between 5 and 8 million copies of that game to date.

                                        I think they’re doing fine without needing a sale and devaluing their product.

                                          What should I get? I'm back on Morrowind from a bout of dwarf fortress. A modern Morrowind would be perfect. But not oblivion I need something fresh. I've been eyeing start citizen but the reviews are really lackluster especially about the thing I care about.

                                          OpenMW and TES3MP is a great way to enjoy Morrowind in a modern engine and with friends.

                                          There’s plenty of mods available for OpenMW so you can make it look stunning and add loads of new functionality.
