I feel like they should reduce the price when games are sold out, because that’s artificial shortage and they just didn’t get as good of a deal with the developers to have the game there for everyone and basically create clickbait for the first few purchases.
Now for the games themself I have no idea what’s to come, but as is spending 30€ on games I don’t know yet is downright stupid and irrational. I’d much rather buy a bottle of good scotch with that money.
Sorry for the pointless rant!
I agree with you there. I missed out on that one that was sold out as well. It went really quickly. I already had the game and was hoping to have one to gift later on.
Ah, I didn’t know you’ve purchased it! That wasn’t meant as a personal attack or even critique. I was talking about myself as my financial situation doesn’t allow for such a purchase and I’d be throwing money out the window for gambling of sorts, you know?
since i’ve decided to not fall in the yogscast trap again (last year was truly abysmal) i’m sure this time it’s gonna contain great stuff
tho previous seasons lackluster offerings is not the only reason i’m passing up, i’m told apparently i have “too many games” and that “should play the ones i already have” ?
I understood what you were getting at, so no worries.
Don’t we all? I keep buying and I don’t have that much time to play. I also play a bunch for the curator to review. Otherwise I stick to the few same games for bread and butter gaming…
Guns of Icarus, though. That’s like that one person you know you can fall back to when you don’t want to leave the party alone. A real bundle slut. (Yes, that includes men, we can be sluts, too.)
I know I’ve said it before, but with the Jingle Jam bundles, you probably shouldn’t be looking at the bundle for a good deal or something like that, it’s best to look at it as donating $35 to your favorite charity and then getting some random / weird / sometimes terrible games as a side effect.
Yeah, you will get a whole bunch of garbage games, but hey, they’re still usually pretty fun to mess around with for a bit or be amazed that something so awful has made it on to steam. Sometimes there are also some great games mixed in there! I mean, overall, you probably shouldn’t be expecting anything too crazy amazing since the devs donated tens of thousands of keys of their games for free.
Anyway, even if you buy it on day 1 and don’t find a single game that you actually want, it still shouldn’t have felt like a waste of money because the point of the bundle is primarily to raise money for a charity of your choice, which, if anything, should still make you feel good about your purchase.
Also, sorry about the random rant!
TL;DR you should buy the bundle to support charity, not necessarily for the deal of a lifetime.
To all the Jingle Jam buyers, anyone used Displate before or familiar with this style of art? Do they scratch easily, weak magnets fall off walls, etc., or anything frustrating about moving them?
Assuming they are as cool as they seem, anyone have a spare -40% coupon for Displate that I may use? PM me if it is a unique code as I currently intend to buy at least one…found a Zhangjiajie, a Batman, a light map of Tokyo, and a Cyberpunk 2077 that all look great on metal.
