Booyah, metro last light in flash sale, 66% off.  Got the season pass with the same discount.  I don't know if this will persist or not but it says there's about 5 hours left in the flash sale.

So is Kerbal Space Program worth picking up at its current price, or is there a chance it'll go cheaper?

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a list of community choices and the way the votes went, short of personally compiling such a list?

I'm guessing someone on reddit is already personally compiling a list... if not there, maybe neogaf?

No, It's not likely to go cheaper. Yes, it's good.

The daily deal contains Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons and the current flash sale contains Gunpoint. If I got one of these, which does B12 at large recommend?

Several people have said OMG, Brothers is best game of all time!, but the gameplay just doesn't look like it appeals to me. Gunbound looks like it would be much more fun, if a bit short, yet I rarely hear about it.

Never played gunpoint, but loved Brothers. It's more a story-and-prettyness-experience type game though, but one of the best I ever played.

Gunpoint has solid mechanics, fun puzzling and tons of replay value, if only to see what the other dialogue options say. It's short, but there is custom level support. AFAIK, there's no Steam Workshop support.

Is it as bad as Ride to Hell: Retribution? I believe that is one of the few games that has been called "worse than big rigs". I tried playing it once... Never again.
Ride To Hell is of a completely shittier class, where Bad Rats is so bad you just want to not play it, and Ride To Hell puts you into hysterics when you play it.
Unlike Big Righs Ride to hell actually plays like a game. A game released in alpha state and quickly pieced together into a barely playable game but a game nonetheless.
Big Rigs on the other hand is just an unplayable mess that's even worse than early World of Warcraft emulators (and that's saying a LOT conmsidering that nothing worked on those and the things that worked didn't work properly.)

Hm, if I vote for Injustice, it'll sell for a crappy 50% discount at $25, which I'm not interested in spending. But most people who want it will buy it at that price, which means it'll probably sell less later, which may drive the price down, perhaps $20-30 base price, which then will go on sale at 75% discount in a later sale, which means I'll be able to buy it cheap!

My plan is flawless.

Wasteland 1 is $3 on Steam and $2 on GOG. Stop wasting time and spend your pennies.

Just got to the US and I still have euro prices. Tried posting about it on the forum but they deleted the thread instantly. Sent a message to support but somehow I'm doubtful that they'll help me. Should I just create a new account? But I have so many games... I'm sure if I'm constantly switching between two accounts they'll notice. Maybe I should make a new account just to buy games here, then gift them to my other account? I'm just concerned they'll get angry that I'm not paying more anymore, and freeze my account or something...

Sorry, not trying to derail, but if I can't sort this out before the sale ends I'll be really irritated.
