Steam Summer Sale 2016 Thread!

I have DSL so I have the money to but games but the download time could be weeks. Not exaggerating:)

What do you pay for that internet? I have internet that I consider quite slow at 6/1.5 and pay $50 inc. tax for unlimited. I hope you are not paying anywhere close to what I do.

It's Frontier. It's between 20 and 30 bucks.
I was thinking of making a "Living with DSL" thread.
Obviously having a single player campaign is important to me:)

OMG! So I finally got the Steam cards from the Steam Summer Sale but I now see a hold on my sale til July 8th? Are they seriously kidding?!?! I don't have a mobile authentication app for them because I don't have a smart phone or tablet. Total crap!

Ugh, damn dude, I know how that is all too well. Is it that they're the cheapest?

btw, anyone know how Shadow of Mordor is? Down to $12.50 and it looks pretty good.

It's annoying, but there are ways to run the mobile authenticator without a smartphone or tablet. It's not going to help you this time around as your account has to be protected with it for 7 days before the trade restrictions are lifted, so you're still stuck with the full 15 I think. Might be able to relist after 7. These restrictions have been in place for almost 4 months now. With so many users knowing so little about keeping their shit safe, account hijacking was (and still is) out of control.

Woohoo! My physical copy of Dead Rising 3 for Xbox One just arrived. I got it for $9.99. So if Steam doesn't want to make my experience with them fun they can kiss my butt. LOL!

Thanks so much for this information. I installed the plugin and ended up using the default directory it wanted and it didn't work. Update: Who cares as something else you later shared worked.

Skyrim seems to have gone up in price since the sale started. It was $20 for the Legendary Edition, now it's "-59% for $26.65"

Whats your steam name - and anything in particular you wanted? Sometimes I get carried away and end up with doubles of stuff.

I've had it sitting in my wishlist so I wouldn't forget about it haha

Satiracle trailer <3

I personally haven't done it before. I've got both a smartphone and tablet, but I'd known people in your situation and just did a quick search to find what I did. And while those things work, I may have found something easier. You'll still need to use a regular phone to receive SMS messages, or setup a number to receive texts via a website like https://www.textnow.com/

EDIT: Ok. Here's another one. WinAuth also supports Google authenticators and includes things like Battle.net, Guild Wars 2, etc., in addition to Steam. https://github.com/winauth/winauth

WTF?! Stellaris is discounted only by 10% :( not cool Steam ... not cool

Can someone suggest me some HOMM-like game, because from what I read about the HOMM 7, I am not going to buy it.

I have it on xbone so I can't speak to graphics.

As far as gameplay goes, it's difficult. The problem I see with it is that the more you suck, the harder it gets. See the issue here is that when you get killed whoever kills you levels up, so it gets more difficult to kill them in the future. Have this happen a dozen times and you're screwed.

Check those out... They are a bit different, but are similar in the sense of you have capitol and towns and heroes and army etc... But it is different as far as gameplay goes...
