Thanks for the heads up. Got Disciples I, II, and III on GOG for under $5 total. They are a little old, but they are still good. The one I really want, I won't be able to afford until a few years from now.

ProTip for Arcanum, for those who can get the thing working
-- If you make precisely the same character several times, and only change the name (even making a lowercase letter into a capital counts), your starting gear will be pulled from a specific list - the thing is, re-using that exact same character & name combo will always result in that same set of gear and items being spawned. So, once you have a basic build you like, keep track of the specifics and the exact name, then just iterate on the name until you get the resulting inventory that you like. By abusing this, I've wound up with a starting inventory containing anything from a broken camera, a spring, and 3 dirty rags to an enchanted chakram and (of course) a couple of dirty rags.

Updatey time -- If you look on your Badges page, a new "mystery" set of cards has appeared -- the last time they did that, it started about a week prior to the sale (thus, right on schedule), and the mystery cards converted into sale-specific promo cards once the sale began. As usual, crafting a badge of any kind will get you one of these cards, in addition to the usual rewards (I just did that). Note that you cannot craft the badge while they're still in "Mystery" form, nor can you buy or sell the mystery cards until they convert.
ProTip: If you get cards from badges early, just go ahead and sell them on day 1 ASAP, that's normally when they'll be worth the most. From the final day onwards, they'll generally be cheap as dirt, so you can re-buy them if desired; it may or may not be possible to craft the badge once the sale ends.Last edited by EricKei; 06-09-2015, 12:43 AM."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons.

Fortunately, I'm at work, and I'm not going to be going on Steam until I get home tonight. I'm girding my wallet for the abuse it's going to suffer.

It has a "click shit really fast" minigame up there where players can unlock rewards such as game discounts based on how many people play, damage done, etc. The nice part is, you apparently "keep playing" in the background after exiting that game. Not bad...not bad.
Note -- this time around, the special "sale only" trading cards WILL go away when the sale ends. So, if you have spares, dump 'em before then. If you need 'em -- buy on the last day when everyone ELSE is dumping them ^_^ You can level up the badge multiple times for more goodies."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons.

It can take a while to load in properly, though. I expect the servers to get slammed in just a couple hours, once more people are home and word spreads. Not really sure what determines whether you get a gold reward or not when killing monsters (each game supports up to 1000 players in "3 lanes" total. Each screen has up to 3 mobs and a spawner. When everything is dead, the scenario levels up and it starts over again. Apparently at some point the backgrounds and stuff will change in ways other than just gaining more HP.

Aaaand my "Absolutely worth full price but it's dirt cheap right now" plug for today is Fez. It's two bucks. The OST is like a buck thirty if you like what you hear. Currently on a flash sale until about 8 hours from now (so, midnight central/GMT-6). Wonderful little platformer that will...*ahem* change your perspective on things ("Boooooo! Bad pun!"

I've only ever played it once. My friend Susie got me Gmod for my birthday last year and the first thing I wanted to do on it was play Prop Hunt.
