Refunded myself ED from Steam after not even being able to control movement with a mouse and keyboard (at least not without a ton of unneeded frustration).
Elite Dangerous, you can play it with mouse/keyboard, but afaik everyone uses either a gamepad or a flightstick because it is a much better experience that way. Always a good idea to read comments in games like that tbh, but must admit, really liking the new Steam refunds system, even if WB really hate it.
I cannot help but comment on how foolishly absurd it is for gaming companies to add in on the Black Friday insanity. The day was dubbed as such because RETAILERS -who stole the name from Philadelphia police, who give it a negative condemnation related to working the streets on crammed holiday shopping day- stole the name to try to give it an up appeal for days of such good business. But the term is still a retailer thing, for sold merchandise boxed sale stores (and now online stores).
MMOs usually have sales around their own anniversaries, to combat the Steam Summer Sales, and sometimes during Holiday events. To have a "Turkey Day Bonanza" sale is just fine; not a Black Friday sale. Associate it with the holiday that is meant for people to be thankful for what they have, not for the "gimme, gimme, gimme now!" single day after that makes people quickly lose hope in humanity each and every year.

TESO is also $23. Tempting, but I'll wait for a free trial, buddy key offer, or something along those lines.
Elite: Dangerous is also really tempting, but I don't know how well the game will play with a keyboard / mouse, and I'm not buying a joystick for one game.
It is really bad with a keyboard and mouse, and because I'm weird I find joysticks annoying so I had to refund it.
Let me know when Life is Feudal goes on sale ... again. I missed a sale I think, and I missed the free copies. This is the only game I am considering spending $ on lately. And its really not a bad price now but that damn budget I have keeps fucking with my pleasure modifiers.

lol at the photo used. Snapshot of a sick society.
Hoping ESO sale gets a friend and his wife in the game. They want to try but 2 full price clients is rather expensive. Luckily the b2p model for simply playing the game is very friendly on the wallet other than dlcs.
They are a married couple, one salary and a child. The value of money is quickly learned.

Base game 60% off through publisher or Steam and huge deals on Crowns, etc. Can pick up the base game and all DLC's for less than the normal base game.
Steam is known to start prices at original FULL Price before applying the discount. they are sneaky.
You can still get ESO cheaper at https://www.g2a.com/the-elder-scrolls-online-tamriel-unlimited-cd-key-global.html
I stopped buying from Steam since you can goto G2A and get the same Game Keys (FROM STEAM) cheaper.
You're welcome :)
I hate to tell you some major bad news, if you buy steam keys from this website, STEAM will find out eventually and then, they will deactivate the code, and then you will have to purchase it from STEAM and pay 2 times, so just buy from STEAM in the first place! Friendly warning...

I too have no problems at all with control in ED using mouse and keyboard. They start off with roll mapped to the mouse and yaw to the A and D keys, but once I changed that it got tons easier. I've changed a few other keybindings since (mainly inspired by CQC) but that is the main one that affected ease of control.
Don't put too much stock in negative comments/reviews/and such. They're loud.
Picked up Witcher 3 yesterday Still downloading, but I should be able to play today ;p
Also, the Fallout franchise is on sale on Steam. All older games are $2.49 each including 3 and New Vegas which have their GOTY and Ultimate Editions at $6.79 each

Where do you get this damn bs? I buy and sell on g2a and you can rest assured they only let legitimate keys through. For each product I ever offered there I always had to present an official receipt and sometimes - confirmation from developers that keys are valid and not activated. So please: stop spreading incompetent bs information you fantasized on your way from the loo, thank you.
Some nice offers around on games. Picked up 2 DA:I DLC's that i didnt have from Origin for 7.99 each, also Battlefield 4 premium for 15.99. Steam picked up a couple of games from there too and a DLC.
Will probably be picking up The crew+exp (all in 1 pack) just over £19, Fallout 4 £30 and Metal Gear Solid Phantom (just under £26).
Ark Survival Evolved, H1Z1 (Steam) are lowest prices i have seen them at and will try to get a friend pick them up (as i have them already).
I'm going to grab the goldbox bundle. Even if I don't play every single one I love that they have gone through the effort of repackaging these. There are some titles in there I never got a chance to buy and would love to play through again.
Same with me, I'm already in the middle of Al-Qadim since yesterday.
Back in the days I skipped it since it was the abomination with its action combat - until diablo arrived later at least here the other parts are still good, the story, the npc interaction, puzzles, item usage, etc. (Actually I skipped it at the tables too, wasn't a fan of the world, we've played pen&paper Al-Qadim maybe 1-2 times, tops)
Now it's better since I can play around with dosbox settings and slow it down during combat almost to turn-based speed (back in the days there were similar tools as well, but not dynamic ones sadly)

In-correct!
I've bought plenty of titles for Steam thru G2A. They affiliate certain companies and I have had no problem yet.

Bioware also offers a discount on their SWTOR market currency.
Thanks! Added!

Considering how juvenile all games increasingly becoming, the picture of a toddler was most apt.
