most of the surprise is at the fact that they charged fully $40 for it on release and it was getting tons of marketing push from steam or whoever, and has hardly ever gone on any good sale

normally that only happens to AAA stuff that is obviously afraid to allow big sales, or from bad corporate euro developers who are just used to charging a lot for trash piles

well the preorder gave you good poo poo too so they had that over what you described

FTL, Divinity, Shadowrun Returns, Tabletop Simulator (well it's something that lets you play games but it's really good), Broken Age, and Banner Saga were all on Kickstarter

hopefully Elite: Dangerous becomes good at some point because it's a really cool foundation but there's not a lot to do in it yet

I kinda like Outland which came out on Steam a couple of weeks ago, but it's a PC port of a three years old console game, so not really current.

Put off the story in mordor for a long time because the powers that the story gives you actually hurt the game a little bit. like the shadow-dash-kill is good once you've already explored everything on the map and just want to get around faster, but before that it makes the fights way easier than they should be

and especially delay the story once you get to Nurn because having brand changes the whole game and makes the world be less full of roaming surprise bossfights

if you didnt care enough when it released then keep waiting, it will definitely cost basically nothing in some humble bundle at some point soon, if it hasnt already

Payday 2 will probably be having a sale in like a week and be cheap as hell if you have some good gamer friends to heist with

there currently are no good games, sorrry

take oolder games and mod them



also, anyone that hasnt donee so yet should play STALKER: Lost Alpha. while its sometimes a bit rough around the edges (the first car you get in the mmain story is absolute poo poo thats impossible to drive - ditch it for a jeep), i found it to be quite enjoyable, if only to revisit the zone with nice(r) graphics and a bigger, more detailed gameworld (my jaw literally dropped when i discovered that theres a giant underground tunnel complex below cordon for example)

I'm a discerning gamer, I don't play any old trash that comes out. FTL is all right but it's too repetitive and simple for my tastes, Divinity Original Sin has a horrible story and writing, the rock paper scissors conversation system is stupid, walking around the town makes me want to kill myself, the wilderness exploration and combat is all right but it needs better indication for what environmental effects are gonna trigger and such. Broken Age is half of a mediocre adventure game, Banner Saga i just played the tactics thing but it was meh. Kickstarter and indie gaming has really let me down, here's hoping Pillars of Eternity blows away the competition.
