50%-off deal on No Man's Sky on Steam extended until July 30th, if you were still on the fence.
GOG has decided to match the price, $30 instead of the usual $60.

BUT

Much of the new multiplayer content is not available in the DRM-free GOG version...yet. The studio has said they are not gating off the content, just that they don't have the resources to add it to all the different release platforms of the game at the same time, and that the so-called NEXT updates will be coming to the GOG version "...later this year."

Because of this, GoG has also stepped up with an extended refund at their own expense. Even if you bought the game from them two years ago, you can still refund it now because of uncertainty if the multiplayer will ever come.

You know, I remember back in the days when I used to think that GOG sounded like a shady crackwarez site.
My opinion of them certainly has changed over the years.

In No Man's Sky, I helped a freighter fight off some attackers and now I own this thing because reasons?

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's just how you get your first freighter but I accidentally delayed doing it so long that I got a massive one. A lot of the others I've looked at have roughly 15 inventory slots, mine has 26 and is the size or bigger of the in game space stations.

Apparently they didn’t sell enough copies, because as soon as the timer ran out today at 10a PDT, it was extended again until August 6th.

Or it was just straight-out more profitable. "We're selling 3x the number we were selling at twice the price! Let's keep that up!" It'd be stupid NOT to.

**Glares at Nintendo Pricing**


On that note actually, I'll bet I would have picked up a few of their games, probably exceeding the amount of money from a single game, if they were more reasonably priced. The new Donkey Kong, hell even Captain Toad, and that's just what I can think of without looking anything up! But $80+ (Canadian) for one game? Hell no. I can pick up 8 (at least) good PC games for that price, and still play them on the big screen in my living room - and I'm playing them using my Switch Pro controller! :p

Note that if you have the 1st one, it's cheaper to buy the bundle.

EDIT: and it's gone....

So i got SP2, but then when it wouldn't start, i remembered it was from Ubisoft, and needs Uplay, which, for some reason didn't work on this PC since a few years back when i was playing HoMM6 and then just didn't work one day.

And of course after looking online all the solutions where stuff i already tried then...

Well, almost all, after looking some more i found a new one... which was some guy sayong he did the exact opposite of what they recommended... care to guess what it was?

It was un-ticking the "Run as Admin" box for the Uplay .exes....

And i'm all WTF after that works....

Steam Quakecon sale, which I only mention because I just got Doom for ten bucks. It's just like the old one right? I was pretty good at that in '93.

The new DOOM is Doom meets Serious Sam; expect big waves of enemies in each arena, with the main focus being on ammo management (which is most efficient for the situation) and taking risks to get Health and Ammo via glory kills. It's pretty fucking great.

Sweet Zombie Jebus. Like, I thought games looked pretty good an my new laptop, but running Doom 2016 makes me feel like a damned god.

I heard there's a Spike Chunsoft sale on Steam, but I can't access it from work, so I don't know if it's any good. Hopefully it'll be a way to finally try Danganronpa on the cheap.

Funnily enough, I looked up that game to likely purchase and then never touch but realized it was a board game and have at least learned my lesson with those.
