quote: ORIGINAL: Ranger33 Infinifactory - The sequel to SpaceChem, it's in early access but it's in really good shape. Very much like SpaceChem but in 3D. You get a supply of blocks and have to use conveyor belts and various tools to combine them in specific ways and deliver to the output spot(s). Starts off simple and rapidly gets tricky. You then compare your efficiency to everyone else who has played that level. Involves basic programming concepts after a certain point. Nerdy fun! Just because this thread has a Space Chem element to it, don't forget the already out there sequel to Space Chem, Ironclad Tactics. It basically has you programming mechs in an American Civil War alt history. It seemed fun from the 15 minutes I've played it. Needless to say I got it from a bundle, and it's on my backlog to play for real. But based on its setting alone might interest people around here.

In a nutshell if you've played one you've played them all. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent. [:'(]

quote: ORIGINAL: RisingSun Does anyone played Dragon Age: Inquisition, would be some feedback on that game though. I'm playing it now. Although it's not a open world game, the areas are much more open and larger. For me that's the biggest positive change. I've always hated the corridor feeling when I've played the other Dragon Age titles. There's now a war room area where you make some strategic decisions. I haven't played enough to tell if the choices made here will impact on the game or not. Anyway for me it's a welcome mechanic. Unfortunately, like most AAA titles, the UI was designed for consoles and joypads, but eventually you'll get use to it. In terms of story, it's OK, but not as good as The Witcher titles. Specially the side quests could be more interesting. Overall I'm enjoying, it's a fun lite ARPG. Much better than the second Dragon Age II, which was a disappointment for me. BTW the game is now 50% on sale on Origin store. I hope they use this engine for the new Mass Effect game.

And was told Dragon Age II was less interesting than the first one or poorer reviews, and thanks I will check it out and hopefully it will still be on sale by the 1st July, already spend most of my cash on Steam this month.

Eambar -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 2:31:56 PM)
I was hoping to pick up To End All Wars in this sale but it never dropped below 10% off. Guess I'll have to wait until the next sale. Overall, happy with the dozen or so titles I picked up, some for nostalgia sake, others off my wish list, most expensive purchase �10.17 (The Talos Principle). Cheers

wings7 -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 3:49:33 PM)
The sale was quite successful for me! [:)] My game highlights: Half-Life, 6 titles Call of Juarez The Settlers Pack The Mims Beginning (great little indie) The Spatials (great little indie) MoonBase Commander (great little indie) The Marvellous Miss Take (great little indie) Battle Fleet 2 (great little indie) Starmade (great little indie) Solar 2 (great little indie) X3 Terran War Pack Dawn of Discovery Gold Counter-Strike Complete Tropico 5 Europa Universalis III, 11 DLC's Escape Machines (great little indie) The Elder Scrolls IV GOTY Deluxe The Elder Scrolls III GOTY Tom Clancy Franchise, 8 titles Civilization 5, 12 DLC's Uncanny Valley (great little indie) Sherlock Holmes Collection, 6 titles Rollercoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum SALT Age of Mythology: Extended Edition The Wolf Among Us (great little indie) HomeWorld Remastered Collection This War of Mine (great little indie) Return To Castle Wolfenstein (a Classic!) The Forest (great little indie) plus many more... You are saying "what is this idiot doing?" I'm stocking up on game sales for my upcoming retirement, my game budget will go way down (I'll never be bored!) [:)] Patrick

Gilmer -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 4:27:49 PM)
I picked up Space Rangers HD a World Apart, Dishonored, and Arhkam City for 3.74, 4.99, and 4.99 respectively.

aaatoysandmore -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 4:33:20 PM)
I find this years sale kind of funny. I bought $24.99 worth of stuff and got $21 and some change back in "refunds" for all of them. They just didn't turn out to be what I wanted. I want to try that Mortichief game or whatever it is called but I ain't swingin $25 for one game in beta that only a handful of people are playing right now.

Hertston -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 7:52:11 PM)
Not a lot this year. Frozen Cortex, Battle Brothers, Blood Bowl: Chaos Edition and the GOTY upgrade for Shadows of Mordor.

rhondabrwn -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/22/2015 10:19:56 PM)
Here's my list: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Close Combat: Gateway to Caen Frontline: Road to Moscow Hell! Homeworld Remastered Collection (a violation of my 75% minimum discount rule but worth it) Hostile Waters: Antares Rising How to Survive The Last Federation Rise of Prussia Gold Ultimate General Gettysburg Valkyria Chronicles The Witcher 1 and 2 Total War: Shogun 2 (pulled the trigger on this a my last buy of the sale last night) Haven't totaled up the damage, but most were under $5 and none over $8 Sales are fun! I will be downloading these new acquisitions until the Christmas sale begins thanks to my 20 gig a month data cap. My son (who provides my cell phone and service) showed me how to tether it to my computer so I can use the unlimited data plan on the phone to download my games. I tried it but it was ridiculously slow. My connection is 4G but doesn't really seem any faster than when it was 2G. Another penalty for living on civilization's frontier [;)]

This must have put a tiny dent in your massive wish list :) Guard your health though... you don't want to end up in retirement with a monstrous game collection waiting to be played but your vision is shot and the bones ache too much to sit at a computer screen for too long. I've got the games but find myself rarely playing anything (for various reasons). I have found that collecting Kindle books to read in retirement was a great plan. I have over 800 books backed up in my reading queue (kinda like your game collection). I knock off at least three or four books a week and sometimes crash though two or more in a night if they are exciting enough. I have all my game manuals on my Fire tablet as well so I read more about my games than actually play them.

Phuket -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/24/2015 2:09:49 PM)
I didn't purchase as many games this steam sale as I did the winter sale, but I still think I picked up a few gems. Finally bought into the Civ 5 series picking up all expansions and DLC for $12. (I look forward to hundreds of hours of entertainment and fun!) Also picked up TOME (Tales of Majeyel) for $1.30 (Love roguelikes and for a $1.30 I'll most certainly get my moneys worth) I intend to do much more damage to my wallet this winter when the "Festive" season puts me in an awful mood to buy.

Fallschirmjager -> RE: Steam Summer Sale is coming this week! (6/25/2015 8:55:17 PM)
I picked up quite a bit. As always :( Cook, Serve Delicious Besiege (Early Access) Endless Legend and the expansion pack The Banner Saga (Fantastic game) Grid Autosport and all DLC Space Hulk Ascension (For the Emperor!) Starpoint Gemini 2 (I already like this better than Elite) The Escapist Pillars of Eternity (My big title and the one I paid the most for) DLC for Euro Truck Sim 2 (great game to relax with, turn on European radio and deliver cargo) DLC for EU IV DLC for CK II Gang Beasts (something to play with my nephew, its early access but a really silly fighting game with a good physics engine) Long Live the Queen Broforce (Early access but one of the better titles I have played in a while) Wolfenstein the New Order and the Old Blood This War of Mine (best anti war game ever made)

If not, then I suggest getting it and it is all on sale this weekend. Shogun 2 is one of my favorite titles. Steam says I have 362 hours in it. The Fall of the Samurai expansion is a must own IMO. It moves the timeline to the the mid 1860s so you get civil war era game play mixed with samurai. You really do get two games in one. IMO the best Total War game available.

Rifles and cannon mixed with spears and swords.
