What's the verdict on Fractured but Whole? What about the dlc, is any of it worth having?
Quoting myself now that things are a bit more relaxed.
I liked the first game, thought it was a solid 7-8/10, and was wondering if the 2nd is any good and how essential the dlc is.

FunktionJCB what pinball arcade dlc sre being delisted again? U mentioned a pack but that it doesnt include some stuff?
It's the AC/DC table.

The table is(was?) part of this pack for Pinball Arcade:

But, they changed the description earlier today, and now it doesn't mention the AC/DC table, so I'm not sure you still get it.
You should, considering the price is the same discounted price that was supposed to remain until June 30th, and the table was only supposed to leave on the 30th. But, do note that last time, they removed the tables a day before the "deadline".

The table is also available for their other game:

Buying on one was supposed to unlock it on the other, but I believe that isn't working any more.

Unpopular opinion: could we please cut down the whole sale game convo, or even move it in its own thread?
I went out for lunch, and when I came back I had to scroll through 5 pages almost entirely talking about boosts. 😭
You can make one and redirect us there :p

Haha, looks like they don't want me using unplayable games for points.
I've had Lawbreakers idling for at least an hour, but my store page shows this:


It says 8 available, but there are only 7 games to choose from. Lawbreakers would be the 8th and it's missing haha.

I hope Valve just go back to the old Trading Card event, this is a fucking shitshow.
I like the game and the discount but I just wish they went for something less intricate to both understand on our side and manage on their side.

I also don't understand why I don't even have those 100 additional points they refer to in the FAQ.

Eh the concept is fine, it's just the execution that is silly. If they work out all the links it's much better than trading card events cause you can actually get discounts
I really can't agree with that, I'd rather get a 4% discount than cards.
(And the opportunity to figure out a needlessly intricate system is a bonus :p)

They just need to polish the execution a bit more.
Fair points :p

I don't mean that I want to send anybody (or, everybody) elsewhere since this is kind of both the steam and community general thread, but I'll admit that I can't understand any of this boost gibberish. Damn guys, just push the boost button and be done with it, I say!
(Not bothered by it though.)

Yeah. I really like that your off-sale purchases count to it, too. If they make this the standard sale format, it would be really nice knowing that your purchases throughout the year are accumulating a nice discount for your next sale

I tried Marvel Heroes Omega yesterday since I have rare achievements in that game and got the same result as you. It shows three available when only two are actually showing. Bummer.

Let me be the only guy to suggest you try (if not now, on a later date), The Darkness II.
The game is a lot of fun!

It's one of the few games for which I unlocked all achievements, and finished the game multiple times.

Holy shit it reset, and gave me literally 100 boost capacity. So I started the day with 6389 tokens and that took me to a whopping 6489.

In other words, there is zero way for me to get a $5 discount unless I spend...$85 more? What the flying fuck kind of discount is that? So they're offering you 3.33% back off $150 spent basically?

EDIT: None of this makes sense. Why are achievements worth so much, but then make it so we're unable to cash them in ever?
