It's a really fun game and the art is quite appealing, but as others have said there isn't a hell of a lot of replay value.

That said, if you're asking because of the sale vote, it's on sale on Amazon for just as cheap as if it would win and since it's Steamworks, Steam is a requirement to install.

For anyone interested in Trials Fusion (and not Evolution, as that's not on sale), serious performance issues plague the game and will never be fixed. With an i7 7700hq (laptop CPU, capable of 3.5ghz) I experienced frequent and severe framerate drops which also slow the game with it. This makes many of the tracks, specifically stunt tracks, essentially impossible to complete with a reasonable score or medal. On an i7 4790k I experienced these issues far less often, but often enough that I needed to give up on quite a few platinum medals, a few gold medals, and every stunt track. These performance issues occur regardless of settings, even at 720p lowest on the i7 4790k (with GPU usage not even reaching 30%).

To be honest, Trials Evolution was the much better game in the first place. Unfortunately it suffers the same slowdown issues but significantly less frequently. I never needed to give up completely on any of the tracks for Evolution due to performance, getting platinum medals on everything but the most extreme of extreme tracks with the aforementioned 7700hq. In my opinion the physics are much stronger as well. Unfortunately once more, Evolution is not on sale. If you're interested in Evolution and willing to buy off Amazon, you can get the physical collector's edition for 8$ which is still less than 50% of the current steam price.

Worth pointing out that this is cheaper on Amazon.co.uk by £1.54, and can register on Steam. At this time of the year, that could be another whole game's difference.

EDIT: In the last hour, the price went up. Wow.

Those looking to buy Tomb Raider, save $1.23 by going through Amazon instead:

I can't wait to replay Firewatch with a graphics card that won't stutter. The game was so good I couldn't stop, but it was definitely the lowest framerates I've ever put up with. My GPU doesn't have the right DirectX comparability, but forcing the game to run under the old DirectX worked.

FYI, I have the Sapphire Radeon HD4870 1GB and I'm budgetting to get the $140 GTX 1050 Ti 4GB soon.

For the same price you can get the DLCs for free and the other XCOM games at Amazon with a Steam code. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ECHYTKY

Cheaper on Amazon and activates on Steam. Link

Edit: Should say the price is $9.99 on Amazon

u/bananagrammick · 3 pointsr/steamdeals

I had to look it up so here is the info that I found.

The Premium Edition includes:


  • Core Starter Pack (including 30 days of game time)
  • All four Content Packs (excluding Aurum): Explorer, Colonist, Industrialist, Skirmisher
  • Abaddon Tash-Murkon Battleship skin
  • Hyperion Innerzone Shipping Battleship skin
  • Maelstrom Nefantar Battleship skin
  • Rokh Wiyrkomi Edition Battleship skin
  • 1 PLEX (30 additional days of game time)
  • 750 AURUM for New Eden Store

    It is also the same price on [Amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/EVE-Online-Premium-Game-Code/dp/B00MXD6IXU) if that is appealing.
