^Are you 'at work'?

BanzaiCat · June 10, 2015, 03:08:30 PM

I'm working from home, as I do 3 days a week. 8)

I tell people the same thing sometimes. :-X

Just beat The Old Blood. Now on to BOMB this evening, I think. Then maybe Grim Dawn?

I'm hoping AoW 3 will be on super sale.

I suppose you missed the AOW3 Deluxe 75% Off Sale at GOG a couple days ago? I posted it in the sale thread!

Where was Pillars of Eternity on sale for 17.00?

At GamesRocket.

Still $18.95 right now.

Hey BanzaiCat...

AOW3 is still on sale at GOG for $11.29

Dunno why it didn't show the sale price on a title search for me. I had to go through the sale link on the front page.

Thanks Nef...I really wonder if the price of Pillars will drop below 18.95 during the Big One.

I've been good! I placed a bunch of games into my cart. Then I looked at the dozen games on my desktop that I haven't played yet and removed them (from the cart not the desktop). Not sure I've ever survived the GOG summer sale before.

Gusington · June 11, 2015, 08:09:41 AM

-Peeks out from under covers-

So...is the Steam sale on?

steve58 · June 11, 2015, 08:41:19 AM

If it does start today, we should know at 1:00pm ET.

Gusington · June 11, 2015, 10:10:53 AM

Sources throughout the interwebs indicate a start today, and as we know.the interwebs never lie. I'm putting my helmet on.

Sir Slash · June 11, 2015, 10:29:17 AM

Your Helmet of Pedestal of Steadfastness? Or is there a girdle for that?

BanzaiCat · June 11, 2015, 11:58:16 AM

I watched a Let's Play of AoW III last night...I MUST HAVE THIS GAME.

I have to wait until I get back from vacation, though.

Gusington · June 11, 2015, 12:25:13 PM

Helmet on...I am ready.

The two Expansions really fill it out.

Unfortunate that the core game didn't have as much content as the previous version, and that they're DLC'ing the missing stuff, but this version is also an improvement in some ways, too.

It's heavily focused on warfare. So don't expect an expansive economic and diplomatic 4X setup. Exploring and conquering is the lion's share, with the turn-based battles (and the units involved) having more depth than most.
