You a t90Official enjoyer too?
How is Monster Train? I usually don’t go for card games, but I played a lot of Slay the Spire.
I second Oxygen Not Included, but skip the DLC
Monster train is lovely. I actually prefer it to Slay the Spire, but it is a little bit more complex. I would highly recommend not playing with the DLC at the start because that makes things a lot more complicated. If you do end up buying the DLC, there’s an option to turn it off. Only when you’ve mastered the game should you turn it on.
Anything INDY that looks fun. I refuse to buy anything ‘AAA’ branded because none of them deserve money or my attention anymore.
Hard to say without knowing what genres you play, but you can’t go wrong with rimworld or hollow knight.
Sorry, that wasn’t a question but a statement. I will only play Indy games. I have blacklisted anything from the AAA studios because of pure corporate greed.
Played both those games and enjoyed them.
There is Amazing Cultivation Simulator which is similar to rimworld but set in a wuxia setting, sseth did a review of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJxM3POU92w.
Loop hero was last years craze if you missed that, pizza tower and tinykin are also popular.
I can’t argue with that.
I spent way too fucking much. I bought.
Stellaris
The Long Dark DLC
Atomic Heart
Eve Online Omega
RainWorld
Vermintide II
Starship Troopers—
You can’t buy other games if you have an Eve Online subscription. There is no other game than Eve.
XD LoL true
Stellaris AND Eve? Wave goodbye to sunlight.
Prepping for the future
Rainworld is a top notch game and a work of art.
Is this a new Long Dark DLC? Have they made progress on the game?
yeah. I think this DLC is the end of the story. i’ve not played it yet. Waiting for winter so I can experience the 4D
Sweet, I’ll keep an eye out for that DLC. I have the rest of it in my backlog (I think), but having been waiting for the whole thing to actually play it.
I picked up Mass Effect Legendary Edition for $15 and Halo’s Master Chief Collection for $10
I miss the days of the short discount windows because the deals were so much better.
True but that resulted in it’s own problems. Think the issue these days is publishers/devs get greedy and suddenly the discounts are worse? You can track the discounts with steamdb and for example the forests devs literally made the worst sale on their game since it came out. Probably to cash on the fact that the new one came out and people might want to check the older one. I wanted to get far cry 3 and was surprised to find the sale was worse (i’m not going to give ubisoft more money, i’d give it to indie devs but not ubisoft).
I know they’re on the verge of upcoming remakes and their current discounts aren’t much, but I’m excited to play Lisa: The Painful and Persona 3 Portable - in the latter’s case I’ve already played P3FES but I wanted to hold off on playing the FemC route until either Atlus or fans added in manual skill inheritance - by far the feature I missed most from P4G and P5R. Thankfully, modders have accomplished that and more for P3P.
Once I found out the femmc wasn’t going to be in the Persona 3 Remake all of my interest in it died.
Started the sale of with grabbing Melatonin, its great if you like rhythm games
I don’t know if it’s on sale but BattleBit Remastered is the best casual FPS I’ve played in years. I figure it’ll tide me over until Starfield comes out. I asked off work to play it on release haha
Dark souls 3
The Dark Souls series being on sale for the first time since Elden Ring launched has me in heaven. Been waiting over a year to pick these games up - I even resorted to family sharing a friend’s account to play Dark Souls 3 and loved every second of it. Dark Souls 1 and 2 are harder to go back to, but picking them up for $20 a piece is nice.
Bought myself sekiro. Already played it once using a friend’s account but very excited to go through it again. Easily top 3 fromsoft game for me
Protodroid Delta, Rusted Moss, Roboquest, The Last Tinker.
Been feeling like going for the nostalgia platformed stuff lately!
I’ve been eyeing rusted moss. Looks really neat. Have you played it yet?
Right off the bat I can tell you it’s like Metroid and Celeste had a baby with a grappling hook system. It also has controller support! Story just drops you in the middle of things which is… An odd choice but I guess it’s a piecing together kind of thing. Charming music as well.
Okay, that’s great. It looks really nice lol. I’ve got a few games to check out before I get to this one but it’s on my wishlist for sure and it’ll be something I get soon (hopefully)
Looking hard at Pegglin, Griftlands and maybe Remnant.
Pegglin looks good. I was at my friend’s house and he was playing it.
Played a ton of Remnant when it released. Great game.
Just picked up sokobond and builders journey
I got Backpack Hero. Played the demo on itch.io last year and i enjoyed it back then so i already planned on buying it at some point, and seeing it on sale gave me the push to actually do that. And this newer version is good, some mechanics like the curse system have been improved and obviously this version has more content.
I got Bloons TD6 at full price a few days before the sale, and have 6 hours of playtime in it already. It’s 75% off in the sale.
Is there any way for me to get a partial refund to the discounted price at this point, or do I just have to deal with my own poor timing?
Some Mecha game… Phantom Brigade or Front Mission. I need something to scratch that itch.
