Steam Summer Sale Swag Thread

[mirth]

Not on sale, but I just took the plunge on Cold Waters.

[jamus34]

Picked up:

Audiosurf 1 & 2
Trails in the sky
Life is strange
Crashlands

And I'm going to pull the trigger on either cold waters or nier automata... both are similar in cost but have a sneaking suspicion that cold waters will hit a humble monthly in the next 6 months or so not that I really want to wait that long

Grabbed TableTop Simulator and Darkest Night for it.. Getting lessons from Nef and JP.. Cool stuff, though my eyes are glazing over at times!

I've tried playing Lock n Load Pacific on Tabletop Simulator a couple of times but it's frustrating. I keep dropping stuff off of the table, I can't get the game boards to line up quite right, etc. If I can ever get past the learning curve it looks like a lot of fun. For now I'm sticking with Vassal.  :D

When nef and I were first playing, I dropped some cards off the table by mistake and we couldn't find them, but nef had me right click on on still on the table and do reset and that brought them back.

• Assetto Corsa + Dream Packs
• Motorsport Manager: GT Series

Wargame Red Dragon - Nation Pack: Netherlands    
Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: Israel    
Wargame Red Dragon - Double Nation Pack: REDS    
Star Ruler 2 - Wake of the Heralds    
Command Ops 2: Knock On All Doors Vol. 6    
Command Ops 2: Westwall Vol. 7

[Arctic Blast]

Braveland - Seems like a decent little HOMM style game. Not a lot of meat to it, really, but it's decent fun for less than $2.50
Monster Slayers - Hello, digital card game! and a roguelike! With different encounters! And an upgrade-able deck!

Also grabbed Highlands and LOGistICAL, but I haven't tried either of them yet. And I downloaded the demo for Age of Decadence. The premise seems interesting, but it's a rare RPG that actually grabs me whatsoever these days.

Not on sale, but I picked up PlayerUnknown's Battleground. Very exciting game, especially team mode.

In the sale I snagged:
Darkest Dungeon
Pulsar

[FlickJax]

so far:

Ultimate General Civil War
Bejewelled 3 as I am sad
Hard West

[Destraex]

You're not being too tight.  31.99 for a 39.99 game is not a proper 'Steam Summer Sale' price. 

so far:

Ultimate General Civil War
Bejewelled 3 as I am sad
Hard West

Why are you sad FlickJax?

[Tinkershuffle]

Naval War: Arctic Circle + Operation Tarnhelm DLC (despite the negative reviews)
DoW2: Retribution

[Ubercat]

I bought the Shadowrun games bundle. ShadowRun Returns, ShadowRun: Dragonfall Directors Cut, and the Hong Kong game.

Does anyone know the difference between the first 2? Does Dragonrun completely supercede the first game and make it obsolete? I haven't found a clear answer online. Dragonrun IS a full game in it's own right.

They're all full games.

I have Shadowrun: Hong Kong on GOG and the other two on Steam; I've spent more time with the Hong Kong game.

Shadowrun Returns is the first game. I think it is unique in that if I remember right, it has a game editor in it so you can create your own campaigns. Also, I think it has a vibrant community supporting it on Steam, so you can download tons of user-made modules. I'm not sure if that applies to the other two games; I've not gotten that deeply into it to find out, and besides, I'm not a fan (generally) of user-made content.

Dragonfall was originally a DLC expansion for Returns. However, the version you see today is called Shadowrun Dragonfall: Director's Cut, which is a stand-alone game.

So, to answer your question, no; Dragonfall: DC does not supersede the first game (Returns). They're both stand-alone games.

Hong Kong has a very good story to it; I think it's the best out of the three.
