So KoTOR II is on sale for $2.49. Worth it?

This is a tough question to answer.

The mod that came out that purportedly fixes a lot of the problems still leaves the biggest problem of all with the game there. That is, regardless of the great plot. Awesome characters. Fantastic dialogue. Etc. etc.

The ending is still utter rushed garbage.

So it depends on you. If you're like me and want to shoot people when something you love has a terrible ending, then for the love of god skip it. If you like the journey more than the destination, then it's really good.

Is the ending worse than Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit? Because I enjoyed most of plot from that one and loathed the ending, but I didn't have any urges to shoot people.

What did that mod fix, anyway? Haven't really heard much about it.

I guess the easiest way to explain it would be like imagining if the game was the Mass Effect series. But when you finished ME2, it immediately skips to the very final scene in ME3 and ends right after that.

I haven't played ME3 yet and have been avoiding spoilers like the plague, so SHUSH

Well thats your fault for breaking the analogy then

Steam Sale on my Birthday...most likely I will be wasting the dosh I get from it.

Edit: CHivalry: Medieval Warfare is 33% off. Should I wait or do you guys think its not going to get much cheaper?

It's a pretty awesome game once you get used to the melee combat. I'd say it's worth the full price, but I doubt there are going to be any sales better than 33% until next year.

Huh. Disappointing. I really want Chivalry, but I do have a cap on how much I'm spending.
Nope, only $16.74. Realllyyy tempting. I imagine the community is really booming right now, especially with all the YouTubers like Totalbiscuit doing videos of Chivalry.

I'm considering picking up Endless Space, too. I do enjoy a small bit of RTS and 4x, and I'm wondering what everyone's opinions on it are.

[Aklyon]

Seriously tempting, it is.

Endless Space is decent. Not the best, not the worst, but pretty good. Lots of stats.

[Sirus]

I enjoy Endless Space, personally. Nice visuals and the mechanics are pretty nice. It DOES take some getting used to, however.

Endless Space is a very streamlined 4X, which can be good or bad depending on what you like about 4X's. I dislike superduper micromanagement, so streamlining is good. Ship combat gets a little annoying for me though, since you have to wait for phases to go off. There should be an option to turn that off during SP games.

I've done a few playthroughs of it... overall I feel it is a very good addition to the genre

I dislike micromanagement as well (partly the reason why I don't play much Starcraft and why I finished my most recent Civilzation V game with a Science Victory), so I might get both Endless Space and Chivalry later. Right now, I have Intrusion 2, Cortex Command, and To The Moon in my Steam cart, which'll be good for now.

[Sergius]

Ghost Master for under a dollar. I heard it's funny. Too bad I already bought it for more than that, but not much more.

EDIT: Also, Zeno Punch for 0.99.

Sorry, I meant Zeno Clash.

Fuck you Steam, I love you.
