cause fanatical make best bundes right now (if we don't talk about monthly) xD

Humble should learn something from fanatical.

Summer sale in Humble store:

Humble We Have a Sale Going On in the Store, Go and Buy There Bundle.

Summer sale in Fanatical Store (right now):

hmm, lets re-bundle our one of the best bundles cause why not (killer bundle XI)

Well being as humble doesn't actually seem to do real bundles any more, of course by default fanatical are the best lately. If humble were still doing regular humble indies and decent publisher bundles then yes they would be the best. But look at humble the last 3 months. 3 bundles more or less. All 3 loaded with rebundled stuff, and not even good stuff. I mean sniper ghost warrior in tier 2? Games they've given away previously in the bundle? A coupon? So I agree with mihey 100%. Outside of the monthly (which is not 'cheap'), fanatical is beating humble hands down the last few months, just by virtue of the fact that they are actually putting new and interesting games in their bundles and consistently releasing their mid-level bundles.

You know, different people have different tastes. I wouldn't play this game even if it was free, so i don't find it strange at all that some guys pressed the no button.

You don't seem to get it or you act like you don't want to. So let me make this clear. Since i have 0 interest in this game 2€ is a shitload of money.

I feel that's wrong approach - if you are ignorant of topic at hand, you shouldn't leave an opinion, as opinions born from ignorance usually are wrong or misleading.

And opinion "2€ is too much for the game I have 0 interest in" is misleading, because it doesn't really answer the question "is 2€ good price for Hard West", it's answering the question "do you want to play Hard West".

How am i ignorant of the topic, excactly?
I didn't even vote in this poll. I only answered to ParadaimiX about why someone might have pressed no in the poll without examining if he/she should have done so.
Still i don't get how i mislead anyone by stating that 2€ is too much for a game I have 0 interest in. I just stated my opinion and the reason i have such an opinion. If someone can't judge by him/herself and is being misled by that, tha't not something i should take the blame.

I was mostly talking about your "why someone voted no" reasoning.

And, well,

might have pressed no in the poll without examining if he/she should have done so.

without examining

I would say those two words make such person pretty ignorant, wouldn't you?

Are you for real? So if you use these specific two words you are ignorant?
I stated a reason why someone may have voted no in the poll. The fact that i didn't examine if they should have done so has nothing to do with the statement itself.
Stop arguing for the sake of arguing. FFS.

Got it a few hours ago, it was on the wishlist anyway.

In reading about the game on the Steam forums, I found out about Phantom Doctrine which looks really good and intriguing, I'll be researching that one...

I would have probably bought it if it didn't have a 3€ DLC that adds content and apparently re-balances some parts of the game.

I'm no expert (I don't have the game), but it seems to me the dlc only "re-balances" itself. I think it's self contained.

Yeah, could be. Also after reading its page again, it seems it doesn't change or add anything to the core story of the game, instead it seems to add an entirely new campaign.

It'd be great if someone who played both comments to confirm that.

I can confirm that it adds a new independent campaign, with new characters. You start the DLC from the main menu (Continue/New Game/DLC/Options). It won't give you new weapons, skills or whatever to the main campaign if you play Scars of Freedom first.
I can't say about hypothetical fixes or slight changes on the gameplay/stats/IA improvement of the main game. Probably no change.

I also confirm that the DLC is an independent campaign (and a good one at that). It has a slightly different card mechanic than the main game's, but to my knowledge it doesn't change anything that was already there.

Today the DLC is full priced, but it's often discounted, and drops to 0.59€/$ (80% off).

Good point. I might end up buying the game after doing a bit more research about it.

I recommend you get the game on discount and buy the DLC when it goes on sale. That is, if you're actually interested in this type of game.

I was interested at first, but after watching several videos the combat seems rather simple and unexciting which I think would make the game boring for me.

It looks very interesting, but I've overlooked it because I'm not into turn.based combat. I find it very, very slow and boring. I loved the western setting they achieved, but I guess I'm way more into "fast-paced" gameplay.

Edit: Screw it, I'm gonna grab it anyways and see. For this price, its too good to ignore.

To anyone that likes to play on a big screen tv I would avoid buying this just because of the horrible font which just ruins the game for me. Text is blurry and hard to read. It doesn't scale to the resolution and the devs never fixed or did anything about it. Bought the game to double check that it was as bad as some people say and it is so going to get a refund. Would rather have the game than the money but I don't want to go blind!!

Thanks for the heads up, bought it. I wasn't too keen on spending money for a game that I know for sure I won't be playing until at the very least a couple of months, but this was on my wishlist and I love turn-based tactical games, the deal was too good to pass up.

Good to know, but somewhat turned off by the heavy emphasis on luck. However, budget price is tempting!

Just so you know - in-game "luck" is just a resource you use to dodge bullets (every shot reduces your luck, when it drops to 0 then shots can hit the target) and in same time you need to spend luck to use skills.

IIRR, it actually eliminates infamous Xcom's "4 99% shots missed" (un)lucky situations.

Thanks for that information...after trying to enjoy the PSX Classic Front Mission 3, I struggled because of the seemingly non random randomness, and the percentage chances that just didn't seem to reflect reality. Really turned me away from this style of game.

I'm usually very terrible at this type of game (Im horrible at xcom) so I never paid it much attention. At this price it's such a good deal though! Thanks for the thread!
