Steam Summer Sale 2015 after action report
- Thread starter Zontar
- Start date
The fall of Tokyo (secret world expansion)
Tomb Raider: Anniversary and Legend because why the fuck not? I already own most of the games in series (although not Angel of Darkness because I'm not touching that one) so I figured I might as well spend a couple of bucks and get them. I had enough money in my steam wallet from selling cards for it.
That's it. I bought a ton of games last sale and haven't had time to play them all so I'm not stuck for games.

I bought a few games on my wishlist. Turned out to be a bit more than I was expecting, tbh. The games I got were:
Highlands
Galactic Civilizations III
Interplanetary
Grey Goo
Xenonauts
Anno 2070 - Deep Ocean
Sunless Sea

I think I spent about 100 or so? I can at least list the games I bought.
-Outcast 1.1
-Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
-Descent Freespace: The Great War
-Freespace 2
-The Longest Journey
-Dreamfall: The Longest Journey
-Dreamfall Chapters
-Hand of Fate
-Age of Wonders III + all DLC
-Rollercoaster Tycoon: Deluxe
-Rollercoaster Tycoon 2: Triple Thrill Pack
-Grey Goo
-Harvester
Considered buying some DLC I'm missing. Like Endless Legends' DLC pack. But decided to skip and buy Arkham Knight instead.

Both games have my reccomendation, but be prepared to do some modding to get Dark Souls working properly on PC.Ishal said:

DAFix is nessesary if you want the game running in resolutions better than 720p and 60fps. Theres more youll want to do if you want things like rebindable controls (default bindings are crap if you want to use a keyboard) and the online is rife with hackers so youll probably want the PVP watchdog as well.Ishal said:

BattleBlock Theater, Bastion, Call Juarez: Bound in Blood, Call of Juarez: The Cartel, Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, Castle Crashers, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, Serious Sam complete collection, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, and Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. Thinking of grabbing Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell before it all ends. I was certain I picked up Bully: Scholarship Edition, but it looks like it's not in my library. Oh well.
Already cleaned of Wolfenstein: The Old Blood due to it being a super solid but short FPS, Serious Sam 3 BFE trips up my failing PSU and is thus unplayable, Call of Juarez: Gunslinger and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood I've already completed previously and know they're both really fun games (Gunslinger being far better in my opinion), S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is mean and everything is painful and I love it already.
Some games I hope to get to at a later date, namely Bastion and Vampire: The Masquerade. A lot of games I got simply because they were stupid-cheap, even though I have little intention to play them (BattleBlock Theater despite its huge critical acclaim, Castle Crashers, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon).
Some games I regret leaving behind, like The Witcher series, Transistor, Life is Strange, Telltale games, Far Cry 4, GTA V, and Watchdogs. But the price was a little too high, or I wasn't realistically going to play those games anyway. This year's sales were so-so, since the sales people cared about weren't that strong (ARK, Dark Souls), or straight up were the same as the retail price but marked up in anticipation of the sale (GTA V).
Shoutout to the Call of Duty franchise, by the way. Call of Duty 2, which came out in 2006, almost ten years ago, went on sale for $10. Black Ops 1, almost five years old now, is on sale for $40.

Skullgirls Big Band DLC
Despair
Hitman Absolution
Which comes up to 25.37USD, I also got Lost Planet 2 but I refunded it since I didn't realize it needed GFWL, good thing steam had that refund policy haha.

Quite gentle, I got the Metro Bundle and the last Eps 2-5 of Life is Strange, so about £15 (ish). Something close to 20 dollars I'd imagine, too late to bother converting proerly.
I spent about 30 bucks on Rocksmith 2014 DLC.
Not much A. appealed to me at B. prices I wanted that C. I couldn't find at similar prices in daily sales and whatnot (Fallout games,f or example).
