Accidentally picked up a 4-pack of Blockland instead of a single, so I've still got a couple of copies sitting round doing nothing. It's sortakinda a Minecraft clone, but much more 'Lego' oriented. It's more centered around making multi-play scenarios than anything else from the looks of things, but does at least look fun in that department.

I tried to just say no, but I just picked up Strike Vector.

Blockland [...] sortakinda a Minecraft clone, but much more 'Lego' oriented.

Right, if by "clone" you mean "made years earlier".

[Flipside]

Ok, if it avoids arguments, Minecraft is sortakinda a Blockland clone then, and I have 2 spare copies sitting around.

[Mongoose]

Man, I remember playing Blockland years ago, back when it was still shamelessly using actual LEGO minifig models.  The back-and-forth in the reviews I read made it seem like there have been some top-down decisions that alienated a decent chunk of the community, though.

I really don't know if it's a good thing or not that I'm flat broke, I literally cannot buy anything in the sale with the wallet desperately needed elsewhere.

Games like Saint's Row or Agarest with the seemingly endless DLC spam (especially the former) that murders bank accounts to whoever paid full price... Or Wargame RD... Or something else... Or whatever else that caught my interest for all of five minutes...

Especially when paying in USD

Is it just me or did GOG give better discounts? I'm not really a fan of steam but the few times I checked out the sale the discounts seem less significant.

It's just you. (Also GoG gives bigger apparent discounts because their properties aren't trying to make as much money; you can cut older releases that aren't trying to pay off costs more deeply. At the same time, you're not going to save much money in the absolute that way because prices are lower overall.)

i've personally gotten saints row through humble bundle first actually. that thq bundle was a goldmine of ****ty games and a few genuinely good ones

i've dumped 8€ total into the sale this year. nothing much new of the games came round that interest me in any way or i already own them.

(planetary annihilation was also extremely disappointing, and i really wish i could get those $25 back...)

Eh, I bought the Sam and Max games off GOG for 3 bucks each in this sale. Some in the last sale as well. That's cheaper than Steam's summer sale offerings for the same product. Devil's Playhouse is 10 bucks currently. Though it's cheaper at regular for whatever reason. So picking and choosing can probably get better deal at either place at any given moment.

I was referring mostly to Long Live the Queen but I see GOG had it at 75% in their flash sale as well so it's the same discount. Just with steam you get some free DRM goodies to go along with your game.

Age of Mythology, System Shock 2, and Transistor. Very tempting. Too bad I need to pay rent.

Also not on sale, but Valiant hearts looks rather stirring. I have decided I will play it at some point.

[Mongoose]

Ugh...I'd much rather get System Shock 2 on GOG because of the massive amount of extras, but I can't buy it on there right now, and now it's on Steam for the same extremely-low price.  Wat do.

Wait? =)

I don't know that the extras are all that essential, what with the free mods.  As with the Thief series, you only want the Steam game for the data anyway, you're going to want to move it to a shorter path and use SS2Tool.

what the...

[Mongoose]

So hey, if anyone out there plays Sins of a Dark Age, I got the common-tier item for that from crafting the badge, so I'd be happy to pass it on.  (Actually I think I still have something from War Thunder from the previous winter sale too.)  In return, if anyone grabbed a TF2 or Spiral Knights item and doesn't care about it, I'd gladly take it.

Want an Iron Wolf Helm for spiral knights?  I've had it market-listed for ages, but I'll happily just give it to you to be rid of it.

[Mongoose]

Sure, might as well.  I already have one myself, but I can at least give it away or sell it in-game.

[Akalabeth Angel]

All of GOG's bundles are back up for the final deal in addition to the regular flash sales.

[Grizzly]

I bought Asetto Corsa, and that's about it really.
