Steam Summer Sale 2017
Posted by sevin [172.56.27.42] on 2017/06/23 15:00:53
Any games you all are looking to get in the summer sale? I'm gonna be picking up DoD, DoD:S and a Portal mod, Aperture Tag for starters. What else would you guys suggest?

260+ hours says I like it ;)

A lot of the Dwemer stuff reminded me of Quake. 

Fuck DRM. 

I never check this thread. Sorry that I made a new one. 

Just seemed more suitable here as I think for most of us Steam Sale is not that massive an event?

Feel free to post some highlights in here tho.

I....have enough of a backlog.


Also mugwump how the fuck do you play games as 90% of them require a steam activation? 

and I play a lot of pre-DRM games. Like Quake. 

Keeps things sensible and honest. 

and fuck you steam 

you gabe 

I hate buying games, downloading them easily, and running them through Steam. Because, errr, ummm, reasonz. 

stuff like whatever the fuck was bundled with bioshock or a few games from that era can suck my sweaty balls. 

I prefer to get my games through Steam for convenience but I couldn't care less about DRM. 

Go Direct2Drive They Dont Censor Games 

10/10 would ignore again. 

Watching cohh play this again. Fond memories of Daz's playthrough. I can't stand the perspective, but everything about this looks good, tactics, art-style, logistics etc. If this was 3D I'd definitely play it, but just can't be doing with the side on stuff. 

Thought I'd update you fellas on a few recent games. I started to get some of the sludge from 2014 out of the way, although I've still got some good 2013 games to play (ME3, Metro Last Light, Bioshock, Battlefield 4, GTA V).

Dead Effect - 59% on metacritic - me 5/10
UE4 game, but feels more like a Q2 mod with a modern engine, but really flat level design. Enemies very uninspiring, just slow moving zombies. It was hairy at times though because you usually have to get headshots, and especially the first half is tougher before you can get some upgrades to weapons. Really repetitive though, you only get enough money to upgrade one weapon, so that's all you use.

The Old City: Leviathan - 62% - 5/10
Just a walking simulator with pretentious story being narrated, and notes everywhere that I ignored. Nice design though, felt like modern Halflife. I wish they'd just decided to put some freaking monsters in there, it wouldn't even need that many, and make it a sort of survival action game. A shotgun, an automatic of some kind, maybe a grenade launcher. Then just fill it with monster design similar to Ogres, Hell Knights, Scrags, a Fiend and a cunt like a Shambler. 3 weapons, 5 enemies, the story could remain. Make it a 5 hours little gem. But walking through, it's only a couple hours long though. I guess it's a portfolio for a game college student to get a job - probably what all these walking sims are.

Wrack - 66% - 4/10
Only got halfway in this before quitting. Shitty design, level layouts are early-mid 90s maze-like rubbish. It has a retro cartoony style but really not that interesting. Cutscenes and scripts are embarassingly bad.

Among the Sleep - 66% - 5.5/10
You play as a baby! A BABY!!! Complete with crawling, hugging your teddy for light etc. Maybe 2000'ish graphics, not very good but it's designed to have that animated movie type style. I got a bit scared at times though, the creatures you have to avoid were creepy as hell. It's a puzzle adventure but very easy puzzles. About 3 hours long. Really good ending.

Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark - 49% - 6.5/10
This got really bad reviews, hammered by critics because it's such a disappointment compared to the previous underrated Cybertron games by High Moon. High Moon got moved to doing ports for COD and Destiny, meanwhile Edge of Reality takes over the Transformers series and clearly doesn't know its head from its ass. The design is pretty shit, same engine as previous with no upgrades, corridor levels, bad textures, dull story and script. However, it's still got the foundation of what High Moon did with all the same character assets, so it actually ended up being pretty fucking fun to play. You get so many weapons, enough ammo that you can usually stick with the high powered rockets and similar. All the vehicles modes are good - I don't think the developers realised the game is much easier just staying in vehicle mode with rockets. Plus you play as several different Transformers so combat is always spiced up. Your stuck with unchangeable keys WASD. I wish more games were as fun as this though. 

 

They might be a bit shit, but it's still better than working or watching TV reading crap on Facebook or whatever else I'd be doing :D
