    OK, folks, just how long is Shadow Warrior? And is it consistent in quality, or are the best parts more near the beginning?

    It's pretty hilarious in the beginning but it does definitely stretch on beyond the point when you feel like you should be done with it. It's also not the most optimized game, it took some fiddling to get it to run properly on a machine that can run newer AAA games on high.

    It's worth what it's on sale for, I bought it for $30 and don't feel like I payed too much.

    Edit, looks like it took my husband 20 hours to beat.

    (Sidenote: He's saying he won't accept gifts after the end of the sale, so go get them in now while you have a chance!)

    I never said that!

    You said that the only stuff you'd get on steam is stuff you buy for yourself!

    No buying of gifts. That was the deal. But I like your suggestion too :smiley:

    It would certainly be the end of an era. (An era that started back in 2010.)

    Anyone know if Nidhogg is playable online? I don't mean if it has online as a feature, I mean if a game like that is playable. Feels like the type of game that any amount of latency would completely ruin.

    Again I literally clicked submit mere seconds before @Isorn sent me a humble bundle that includes Cubetractor, Sang-Froid: Tales of Warewolves, and Stronghold Crusader HD.

    <3 Isorn you're a beast.

    Wow. Space Hulk gets an awesome discount, but the DLC gets no discounts at all. Dick move, devs.

    Okay, not completely serious there. But Space Hulk DLC was top 3 of the things I'd planned to get this sale (LEGO Marvel DLC being top priority and Ikaruga being third). I would have been happy enough with even half off, but nothing? That's really, really surprising.

    I know buying the complete pack wouldn't be much more, but that's way beside the point. And I'd still paying for the skins, which is even more money than I'd like to spend.

    Lets talk Myst.

    realMyst is $1.80, Myst Masterpiece is $1.80, however realMyst Masterpiece is $9, which is the same price as the Cyan Complete Pack which as Myst Masterpiece, realMyst, Riven, Myst 5, Uru and a couple other games.

    What is the difference between Myst Masterpiece, realMyst and realMyst Masterpiece, and why is it so much more expensive?

    Yea, I was really waiting for Space Hulk DLC sale, very disappointed it is not on sale. Almost tempted to get the complete edition at $13.50, since it is effectively a DLC sale, but that just feels wrong. However, at $2.50 for the main game, it is time to drop some terminators on random friends list folks!

    I don't own it myself, but the most replied thread on the Steam forums is titled "REQUEST TO DEVS: Please give us FUNCTIONAL Netplay!!!" and there are other similar threads that claim that Netplay is really bad.

    Hmm, that's a damn shame. Still, I might just pick up 1 copy instead of the 2 pack I was going to get and give to somebody to play with online.

    Risk of Rain?

    4 assault drones, a flamethrower drone, a laser drone, a medic drone, 3 dice at 3, two critheal scythes, 2 instakill scopes, and a fuckton of other shit. I nearly crashed the game during the final boss fight. Contagion on every. single. hitbox (achievement: 25+ enemies at once!). All hitboxes on caustic floors. Massive drone fire at all times. The sounds were reduced to a buzz and thankfully that ended fast because it was kind of insane.

    I also unlocked two characters and two more items that run. So crazy.

    Thank you @Madican for Guacamelee! Gold Edition, and for the modding tip.
    I think I have more than enough games from this sale to keep me going to Christmas.

    Also, for any fans of Thomas was Alone, the DLC that was available only on PS3/Vita is finally coming to PC this week and it's going to be free.
    It's as charming as the main game but quite short. About 20 - 30 minutes of gameplay if I recall.

Thank you very much for the tables, I'm going to hold off playing them until the charity stream so that I can try them blind for everyone to see.

    Shadow Warrior is about 20 hours, it would have probably been better if it were 10-15 hours. It's still worth the $8 if you like funny stuff and gratuitous violence.

    Well, he's a generous son of a bitch. But don't tell him I said that. Earlier I'm just minding my own business when he sneaks up on me and clubs me in the back of the head with Brothers.

    Per the internet: graphics. Each one makes the graphics prettier and more modern. Per the reviews on Steam it doesn't make them any less glitchy on modern machines.
