The community choice is Dragon's Lair. People still want to buy that?

You can't even use the "it's cheaper" excuse - I forgot what the options were, but I'm pretty sure I voted for something cheaper and better.

I don't remember the choices, but none of them were things that I wanted. But I voted anyways. I wouldn't have in the past, but now valve incentivizes voting on things you don't care about.

Obviously, it is a sign that you should vote for the worst option of the 3.

I've seen nothing but meh in playthroughs. It's an average game. It's not bad.

So F:NV Ultimate Edition is on flash sale for $4.99, and includes basically all the DLC. I have F:NV and none of the DLC, and the DLC separately comes out to $6.71 right now. There's just one problem: "You already own Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition." What? What.

They seem to have done this "ultimate edition" differently from the goatee editions, since the latter usually list the game and all the DLC as separate items. But are you 100% sure you don't actually have the DLC? They've been throwing them around before.

It's charming but the puzzles are meh or infuriating. None of them were very satisfying. It's also fairly short.

And there's really too much running between the puzzles. It's like 90% running / 10% solving puzzles. It's not bad per se, as the concept is interesting, but well... too much running for its own good. :)

Did you know, Kenshi is on steam sale now? Well, the guy does plan on a price hike.

Fun tidbit from late 2011:

You just paid 10 bucks for that key code. How silly! You probably could have pirated it instead! But you didn't. Respect. I will use that 10 bucks to hire the greatest game artist that ever lived, you have just added 10 bucks of awesomeness to the game. Be proud! Hold your head up high for you are a man of honour!


May your beard see 100 years of health.

The price for Kenshi goes up the closer it gets to release.

Yes. (I bought it before the DLC even existed. I also checked the 'View Downloadable Content' option for F:NV: "You currently have no downloadable content for this product.")

Anybody else getting unexpected errors on their purchasing?

I just realized today was my brother's birthday, and I decided to give him a gift since I realized too late, and Steam is not behaving properly; regardless of restarting it, my computer, and disabling antivirus.

Must be ridiculous trading card marketing going on bogging down the servers. I knew that sucker was going to crash the servers repeatedly.

EDIT:
Checked the stats. It's low tide on the servers. I have no idea why Steam is behaving this way.

Happy birthday!

That's probably just Steam being Steam.
