[kcarbotte]

Anyone who’s been a PC gamer for longer than a week has likely heard of Valve’s famous Steam sales. A few times a year, the company goes crazy with the discounts and lets gamers get their fill of all the games for which they didn’t want to pay full price.

I'll definitely pick up some of the Witcher games.

Just typical trash Steam sells.

What Bloodbath Kavkaz wasn't available this time.

Gawd, I am already at $100 in games. Good sale! Witcher 3, GTA 5!

 

[turkey3_scratch]

Witcher 1 and 2 I'm buying for sure. They are super cheap.

You'd be better off reading the wiki on Witcher 1's story...and starting with Witcher 2. Witcher 3 is the best fantasy rpg hands down. Enjoy friend!

I had a good rofflecopter at CS:GO being labeled as "recent favorite" (that game is older than most of it's player base). On a serious note, I will be getting Dying Light, because the free expansion is coming out soon. For now I am still exploring the Commonwealth Wastelands, and occasionally firing up Rocket League.

Why? Is the Witcher 1 bad? Witcher 3 is too much money. $2 is more my taste

highly recomended.
they are very, very good.

The Witcher 3 is worthy of its Game of The year moniker.

what i meant by that is within the last couple years.

counter-strike has been around for generation (I know, I started playing in the betas) but the latest version isn't that old. It's also one of the most played games around.

Witcher 1's combat is a REAL pain...that plus it's dated visuals will make it feel like more of a chore to complete than a fresh experience (that it was back in the day). Witcher 2 will get you JAZZED though

GOG had similar sale today, spent 37 on some old games

 

[falchard]

Spent $100. Good news, the steam servers aren't overloaded yet.
I got a bunch of RPGs, mostly Japanese RPGs since they have been porting them over to Steam recently.

 

[Math Geek]

so what exactly is the point of the trading cards? i know i'm old and all but i sure don't see any reason to care about them. anyone care to enlighten me? i got all kinds of these things and they just sit there.

i also have a bunch of gems for some reason. what exactly do i do with them? can i trade em in for steam money? or is it just something else to just sit in the inventory and collect virtual dust?

Re: witcher 1... It's my favorite game and i much prefer it, especiqlly the combat, to witcher 2. i also think its more atmospheric, and has some awesome eye candy. I heartily recommend you start with it. I find witcher 2 to b much less enjoyable. Thats why i havent even played witcher 3, because i want to play theough 2 even though its a drag....
