That time of year again: Steam Autumn Sale is live (Nov 26 - Dec 3)

B-but...CrossCode... 😔
Pay full price if you can afford it. The game is amazing.
It looks to me like the GOTY Legacy Pack is for people who own Hitman 2 only, and want to own all Hitman 1 content including its DLCs. The GOTY Legacy Pack Upgrade is for people who own Hitman 2 and already have the base Hitman 1 content too, but not the DLC content. So buying the Upgrade is only the DLC content. If you look at the non-sale prices of each, you can see that the Legacy Pack is considerably more expensive because it has all of Hitman 1 content + DLC content. It's just that it's received a substantial discount.
Basically what I'm saying is, you're definitely looking to buy the GOTY Legacy Pack, as that comes with all Hitman 1 content, and considering it's the same price as the upgrade right now, it's a no-brainer.
Yeah, that's about what I thought. The prices are the same right now, but one has a higher base price and a deeper discount, so presumably that's the more valuable one. Thanks for the help!
It's been a long time coming but I finally picked up the Half-Life games from the sale. That's probably all I'm going to get this time around. Backlog is already big enough as it is and I want to spend the Christmas season playing some of those games.
I can't speak for CrossVoee, but AC7 and XCOM 2 are great games that are absolute steals right now!
B-but...CrossCode... 😔
I'm so happy Steam matched the Xbox Black Friday price on RE2. I was very close to picking it up for my X and I have been waiting for it to drop below $20 for a while...
That's the lowest it'll go on Steam for the holidays. Same goes for DMC5 which is also $19.xx.
Been waiting to pay full price for it on the Switch forever...
B-but...CrossCode... 😔
CrossCode is one of the best RPGs in recent times. It is gorgeous, has amazinggg music, fun fast paced gameplay, lots of puzzles, quests, skill trees.
It is a stunning game and worth more than full price so I highly recommend it to you if you like RPGs :)
It's cheaper on other stores: https://gg.deals/game/phoenix-wright-ace-attorney-trilogy-123/
But yeah, they're much better than the sequels (especially the 3DS ones), the original trilogy is pretty good.
It's the best Action JRPG I've ever played, no one else comes close. GET IT
Switch.
It's the best for laying in bed and play/reading it like a book. Ace Attorney is one of my favorite series of all time. SO YES, buy that ASAP.
Definitely switch. Works like a book so laying down or sitting on the couch is perfect for it. I used to play that before bed all the time.
Ahh what was wrong with it? Runs fine (on PC). I know there were some people complaining about localization or translation or something?
I'm not a super fan of the Ys series, so I thought it was all great and didn't notice anything. I know that was rabble rousing when it was released on PC. I also played the Switch version, but you NEED that 60 FPS in an action game like this. It's not as fun at 30 FPS because you can't time the dodges and guards perfectly.
I think it had some technical issues, probably crashing and such, at launch.
I haven't experienced any technical issues with the PC version. Like I mentioned, the Switch version is locked at 30 FPS which is fine if you're playing at an easier difficulty level. But if you're playing on Nightmare (like you should) then you need that frame precision when perfect guarding and dodging. It's super fun!
Again, I really recommend it. I think if you're into JRPG nonsense, you'd enjoy this game. It's a lot of dumb Anime nonsense with a great combat system. The exploration isn't open world but hub-based like Monster Hunter, but there's so much to fight and explore.
Just a great game!
Agreed. I don't think they put Ace Attorney 6 on Steam, its only 3DS and mobile, but I enjoyed it more than AA3. Great music in the entire series! I would recommend any of the 6 games. Each one is special and can stand alone.
CrossCode look a bit like Golden Sun with the rpg element and puzzle minus the summons and turn base
Is Stellaris "worth it"? Been meaning to pick it up for a while but the sale prices are damn good ($15 for base game and $4 for each DLC).
Just worried as its a bit 'old'...

Every time I see these Steam sales it causes me to search around online. Are sites like Gamebillet and DLgamer legit? They have 2 games I want for cheaper than Steam.
The base game is on Game Pass if you want to try it out without worrying about a refund window, along with all the other reasons GP is worth it. DLC isn't included, although it does all have a very marginal discount in the Xbox Store right now.
Bummer. I am hoping to grab an Xbox One controller on a BF sale and the $5 Steam controller would have been a great substitute.
Steam doesn't ship hardware to Canada?

I highly recomend stellaris if you are looking for its style. you don't need to fear its old because the base game is updated with every DLC. I managed to put 330h and i'm still not tired of the game. It is a joy to play whether in SP or in MP.
Also PDS supported CK2 for 7 years. Stellaris will probably be supported for a few more years at the very least.
IMO with the winter sale looming i'd buy just the base game and if you like it then pick the DLC you desire during the winter sale.
They just started shipping the VR sets to Canada last week (I think).
I just grabbed it from Humble. This site shows historical lowest price and if it is bundled and what not. https://isthereanydeal.com/game/babaisyou/info/
Pretty sure I've bought games from those sites before. I usually check with https://isthereanydeal.com/ I think they only list legit sites.
Wonder why Monster Hunter still only goes down to $30. I know it came out earlier on consoles, but you can regularly find it on PS4/X1 for ~$15, sometimes even before Black Friday week.
EDIT: Even RE2 and DMC which are newer titles are cheaper. What's up with that?

you don't think i can wait for a sale on dragon quest xi steam?
you seen my backlog, i got all the time in the world

Pathologic 2 is on sale on steam for $25. It feels like a game everyone is missing out on. If you want an immersive sims with some survival mechanics with a great story and characters then you'll be hard pressed to find a better game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/505230/Pathologic_2/
I could get RE2 and DMC5 for like $15 on another site but don't really want to as I'm sure they'll eventually be in Humble Monthly or game pass or something like that. Don't think I've actually bought something during one of these sales except dlc for euro/american truck simulator or PinballFX dlc in quite awhile.
Great recommendation. I'll just note that it's coming out on PC / Xbox One Gamepass next month, for what it's worth.
I dunno, Monster Hunter still hasn't gone all that deep, even RE7 hasn't hit a bundle I think. $15 is probably going to be the floor on both of those for a decent while.
Wait... really? Fuck. Refund time. Though I do want to support the devs.... hmmm I dunno what to do!
