Pricewatch!

The Steam wintersales have begun. At the moment Dark Souls 2 and Styx are greatly reduced in price.

I wanted to Buy DS 2 but did look in the forums first. Beware. It seems that there will be a new upgraded rerelease of the game named Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin with new DX11 graphics, 6 player multiplayer, new enemys, new story content and all the DLC included. If you own the game now you will get an upgrade patch but you will not get all new features and no updated graphics. It seems that you won't be able to play with players of the rerelease. So if you want all the new content you will have to buy the game again. And if you do so you won't be able to import your character. I just glanced the forum so I don't know how much will be changed. Does anybody know?

I wanted to buy this game for some time and I thought the wintersales would be ideal to pick it up but I don't want to buy an inferior version of the game. At the moment I'm undecided…

ah ha your talking about CD Projekt RED's Cyberpunk 2077.

Well, after that spectacular trailer, word on the game has been rather sparse. However the people on their forums are hopeful.

Steam likes the RPGWatch Curation list - most games are in the Wintersale right now!

Winter Wolves has a 50 % sale if anyone is interested.

I haven't played their games, but I liked Planet Stronghold's demo.

GOG has a Nordic Games Sale. Gothic, SpellForce, Painkiller, The Guild, other back catalog titles.

This time you don't have to buy bundles to get a good price. Most of the single games are cheap. This is your chance to fill up the holes in your collection DRM free.
After the sale Nordic's games will be removed from GOG again!

Time is running out for the Meridian 4 sale at Groupees. Lots of French adventure games in there, and a couple of action-RPGs. Effectively you're paying ca. 0.3$ per game. Less if you choose more games.

The Guild (I played The Guild 2: Renaissance) is a surprisingly entertaining open RPG. I had fun with it for a few days, and the price ($1.99) can't be beat.

Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines is 75% off for 12 hours (comes to $5 in the USA). Endless Legend is half off, too.

Everything Saints Row is 75% off. You can get the whole franchise (minus the first Saints Row which never showed up on PC) for $13.74!

Them's some good buys!

Square Enix catalogue is on 'significant' sale on GoG:

This include the Deus Exs, Legacy of Kain series .. etc. And of course eveyones favourite Dieketana!

Hmm… Divinity: Original Sin is in today's Steam sale. Only 33% off, though, so it's still not cheap.

That sums up Valve's entire sale pretty much this winter, disappointingly low discounts. Worse GOG rarely gets anything new and interesting any longer so every sale I get .

OTOH that brazilian site nuveem has tons of steam stuff at pennies on the dollar. Dunno if Valve is region locking by key or not though and I haven't been brave enough to experiment.

And for only 33% off it's #1 on Steam's bestseller list. This game is earning Larian some serious money.

Curious where you got that list…

Nevermind, I see it.

I wonder which is accurate….Either way, it looks like D:OS is doing well.

Okay, looked at who's actually playing D:OS, right now, versus Skyrim, right now.

S: 32,366
D: 3,310

Not bad for an indie game.

And Banished is still doing well on the play charts at #41.

It's missing a lot of elements but I loved that game and will replay it again.

I decided to spoil myself and got DOS, since I'm hankering for a new RPG and figured it wasn't likely to drop much more than that.

The sale's been pretty disappointing so far, but I suppose it's keeping me from spending too much.

The Sacred series is 75 % off on GOG today. At the moment I'm writing this, there are 15 hours left.

Edit : This is for Sacred Gold and Sacred 2 Gold.

Banner Saga is 75% off on Steam at the mo. That's my biting point.

Wolfenstein: New Order 66% off on Steam - it's got great reviews. Hmm.

Yeah, I've heard very good things about Wolfenstein, and from folk quite jaded by FPSs.
