Let's share some good deals!

I haven't really found anything, hence why I'm curious to what everyone else is picking up.

  • Amid Evil
  • Balatro
  • CrossCode
  • Echo
  • Creeper World 4
  • Unsighted
  • Metallic Child
  • Dune Spice Wars
  • Atomic Heart + DLC

And you know what sucks? I'm probably gonna only play two of them (Amid Evil and Balatro).

Nothing. My backlog is insane

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

This is the way. Why would I hoard 5 more games just because there is a sale? The next one will come shortly. Only buy games you plan to play in the next 2 weeks.

I got the Vampire Survivors DLC. I try not to buy Steam stuff anymore unless it's either a deep discount on something I kind of am interested in, or it's something I badly wanted.

I bought Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth for myself And Bombrush Cyberfunk for my wife. I got the money from selling all my old tf2 items.

I loved Infinite Wealth! Don't worry about FOMO if you didn't get the DLC, it's not that great.

The only one that really grabs me is Eggcelerate for some reason.

Shadow Empire - best strategy game I've ever played.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm thinking about picking up a Persona, but haven't decided where to start. Haven't played one before but I've heard great things!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (2 children)

All the games are unique to themselves so you can start with any of them. I'd suggest 4 Golden personally.

Hidden Through Time 2 and Monument Valley 2. Just small games where I liked the first game, I‘m still far from done with my Xmas purchases so no need to go harder for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Jedi Fallen Order! It's a great game and only like £3.50 in the sale. Might also pick up Kingdom Come Deliverance and Mafia Definitive Edition since they're both under £10

I picked up Solasta. Pretty decent, but awfully linear with no real RPG choices. Worth $8

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's more of a tactics game than an RPG really.

Like D&D X-COM.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've never been so interested, so fast, as when you combined those two names.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

It's good, but I wish it were even more like X-COM with loads of deaths and managing a roster of heroes rather than just a small party.

Especially since BG3 has done the small party adventure thing so well.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Have a ton of games already, but I picked up Nuclear Blaze and Streets of Rogue on the cheap.

A week prior to the steam sale, got a good deal on River City Girls 2 and Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries on Fanatical, $15 for both together.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Streets of Rogue is amazing, especially with friends. Absolutely bonkers game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I've bought Witch Spring R to play on Steam Deck while I do memory OC and testing on my PC

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I bought Satisfactory and Back 4 Blood for myself and Monster Hunter World for my daughter.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You have a family and you bought Satisfactory? Well I’m sure it was nice while it lasted.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Lol, I would have bought factario, but I have trouble spending that much on a game, and I would have had to buy two copies (one for partner). However first person games give her motion sickness, so satisfactory was about 1/4 the price overall. And she's hooked on monster hunter world herself, so I have time..
