Another day of being totally underwhelmed by the dailies. I know Witcher 2 is going to be cheaper eventually, and I don't need another big RPG. Not upset by this, I'm knee-deep in Skyrim, just started LA Noire, haven't touched Arkham City yet, and that's saying nothing of the 6-7 games I'm somewhere in the middle of that I actually intend to finish sometime. I'll wait and see for the Christmas sale with more cash in hand.
ok... So my phone just dinged twice with email notifications. The first goes to @mere_immortal who gifted me Lightfish and wanted to know what it was. I honestly don't know how to describe it. I saw TotalBiscuit do it during his WTFathon and thought it looked like good casual fun.
Now here's the biggie. Everyone pay attention. @minor incident the King of Class, just gifted me Skyrim. Freaking Skyrim! I don't know what to say. This is the game that has lead to me saving to build a new PC, as my laptop can maybe barely run it. (I guess I'll find out)It is my goal. My dream. Now it's here to urge me on in all the crazy doubleshifts I'll be working to save up for the project.
Thank you Minor Incident. You are a god.
My only regret is that this is on such a late page on this thread.
Wow.
This needs to be reposted so everyone can see Minor Incidents classiness since it got stuck at the end of the old thread.
Jesus H Christ. Shut it down, people. minor incident wins.
I clicked purchase as gift, steam says "hey go verify your email," so I say "sure," I come back, pay through paypal and steam says, "would you like to download your games now?"
I go "wait what? FUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuopensupportticket."
Is Dungeon Defenders worth it to someone who likes RPGs but hasnt played many tower defense games? I think the only time I've played a tower defense game was a few maps in Wc3.

Gonna take this opportunity to remind everyone who likes Dungeons of Dredmore to check out Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, a really good roguelike that goes out of its way to have an accessible interface (and also has tiles and whatever).
@Adellios: Well, ACTION RPGs. You won't be finding much in the way of plot there. But it's a fun game, and you won't have any trouble figuring out the TD elements.

And to all the newish people on my friends list, I'm sorry if I haven't sent anything your way yet. I'm starting to have trouble keeping track of all the gifting.
I promise I'll hit up everyone I can, with an emphasis on those who have been awesome to me and other forumers.
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust

Login to your damn Steam client so your wishlist updates, don't wanna doublegift anything!
Is the preferred gifting method to pick a random person in the thread and surprise them? Or use the Steam Gifts mechanism?
You can also find a game you want to gift, and it'll show you everyone on your friendslist that has that game in their wishlist and pick someone from there, so you know they'll enjoy it if they've been looking forward to it.

I got back from the hospital to find some much needed cheer from @Minor Incident and @Dr. Mark Sloan. Minor incident sent me Rage, freaking RAAAAAAGE?! And Sloan sent me Kane and Lynch 2 which I've weirdly bought 4 times already but never for myself
Thanks so much guys, I really needed the cheer.
edit: Skyrim?! You gifted Skyrim too?!! Damn MI, you're really going for it this year :^:
Thanks for all the continued feedback on Splinter Cell games in the last thread. I put Conviction on my Summer Sale 2012 list. I still have Alpha Protocol to play through and the games seem relatively similar in style.
Well it's obvious why the card was deactivated this time. If it were just normal games, the bank would be like "That's just what always happens" But then they look at a 60 dollar steam game, and a 30 dollar one and are like
"Whoa whoa whoa! A game that's NOT less than 10 bucks? Something's fishy here"
The level of class in this thread is off the charts. I'm just going to burn my charts. I don't need them. They don't track classiness well at all anymore.

Haha, sorry. I'm on my phone. I've only received Spacechem, Hammerfight and Kane & Lynch 2. Otherwise the wish list is up to date. =]

Also this is only a 5 day sale, just wait for the 2 week monstrosity at Christmas.

This sale is doing terrible things to me. I can't wait to see what I put myself through during the Xmas sale.

I'm guessing your generosity will be measured in how many times per day your card gets deactivated.

Thanks to @mere_immortal for gifting me Serious Sam The Random Encounter!
Another classy gent, @Maddoc PM'd me a gift because he's awesome. Maddoc - what was the game? I can't redeem it on my phone, and the URL gives no indication.
Regardless, they're both gentlemen of the highest order!

Thanks to iolo who was awesome enough to get me the overlord pack. I think overlord wins the prize for "game I've almost bought myself your pc or 360 the most times"!

Holy shit! It was Dragon Age Origins! I played part 2 and have always meant to pick up the first one. You didn't have to, but you did, and that makes you awesome!

I have a limited gift budget this time around, so I figured the most economical option was to gift you a game that could last over a hundred hours.

I'm a big believer in shock & awe as a gifting tactic.

I'll be up for multiplayer robbery, this game needs a PA group. Also, Minor Incident wins the world.

I mean seriously, Skyrim? Damn.
Edit: Rage too? Be honest now, did you steal someone's credit card?
I, on the other hand, am the grinch who spent all of his spare cash removing feline testicles

Does the support team work on weekends? last time I submited a ticket on a weekend they only got back to me on monday. :?
Damn. I can't believe I made such a simple but stupid mistake. I guess I'll have to hope it gets handled monday.

Three times so far during the Autumn Sale. I fear I may hit 10 during Christmas.
Holy shit! It was Dragon Age Origins! I played part 2 and have always meant to pick up the first one. You didn't have to, but you did, and that makes you awesome!
Was that on a really expensive knife, or did you actually go to a vet?
