SteamFirst: As fan’s of Steam we are just like the millions of you folks out there that get addicted to buying games during their big sales. There are four major ones to speak of; winter, spring, summer and autumn. For me one of the biggest reasons I go buying crazy is due to the low prices. It’s tough to not buy a game that is only a few bucks, especially when there are no expectations involved with how good the game actually is or can be (and yes I know you can just read reviews). But still, even when a game gets meh reviews for a few bucks, you can not go wrong. What we want to know is, what drives you to buy Steam games during their big sale’s? Is it the price? Do you see that 80% or 90% off and say to yourself “I have to have that now!”?
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.
Dive into the best Metroidvania games on Steam, from hidden gems to top-rated classics, and embark on unforgettable adventures!
Players can pay to edit their character, resurrect the dead and other actions.
Yet Helldivers 2 gets a pass? Y’know a GotY contender by the name of RE4 had them and so does Devil May Cry V. The funny thing is I enjoyed both of those games thoroughly without having to buy a single microtransaction.
What I do consider a valid complaint is not being able to start a new game or being able to edit your character. That’s kind of a seriously baffling decision, but then I think how I played Dragon’s Dogma 1 and I never edited my character and I just did a 100% playthrough on a single file and didn’t start a NG since. So, I don’t think these are really going to impact me, but I can see how it will others.
I was going to pay full price to support this game because I've been waiting for it for forever but I think I'll wait until I get it for free from Epic or a Humblebundle monthly.
I am not defending Capcom, as I am not a fan of MTX in single player games. I do however belive they were open to reviewers about having MTX in their game. The reviewers just decided to leave that part out. Which is very disingenuous. There are some companies that get away with these things. Image if this was done by EA, Ubisoft, or even Activision? I am positive those defending Capcom, would have had their pitchforks ready if the companies listed above did this
Same.. It is the prices!!
I bought a lot day 1 but also wait for some for sales.
Didn't buy any, why buy something that i'm not going to play right away, still have a huge backlog....so yeah
I do not buy anything from steam since you dont own the games anyway.
