I went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games, picked up Darkchaser, Oxygen Not Included, and UFO50, and also grabbed Cities: Skylines. Got used to the launch prices of some AAA games, buying these discounted low-priced games really doesn't hurt much.

Im probably only going to get few newer DLCs for American Truck Simulator. Their price finally dropped to -50%

You're in for a treat! I picked it up at launch and loved every second of it. Heat Signature was pretty fun, but the writing and level design in Breach Wizards was just all around top notch.

I will probably buy Horizon Forbidden West for my son. Told him to wait until it is discounted. But 40 € is still very much the full price of many other games. And we already bought all the Christmas presents this year. Decisions decisions.

At least I've still got a few more days to decide.

FYI, it's 35€ on green man gaming right now.

Nothing yet, maybe the Vampire Survivors Castlevania DLC. Otherwise probably nothing and wait for the Winter Sale.

Tempted to get Hades for $10, but it's a game that makes me angry.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

If dying over and over again is what's making you angry, turn on God Mode. The story is amazing. Without God Mode, I would have thrown it on the heap of games started that never hooked me. It was worth setting aside my pride to see a beautiful, intriguing set of stories and relationships unfold.

I kinda wish I had. Maybe I still will... 50 hours in I finally got my first escape and I now find I'm struggling to go back to it because it just keeps getting harder lmao. I just wanna tell Dusa how great she is.

Need for Speed Unbound, Far Cry 5, Halo Master Chief Collection, Memoriapolis

I loved FC5. Ubisoft gets a lot of crap because they make the same game over and over but there's a reason they started doing that. Good characters, and the pacing is pretty solid unless you're a completions (which is your own fault). There's some weird mechanics that progress the story that kind of break immersion that they chose because of the open world setting, but it's a solid game. Enjoy!

If you like it, "new dawn" is pretty OK. Wait for it to be cheap, it's basically really meaty DLC.

Just bought Riven, I'm liking it quite a lot so far. I see why it's a classic. Love the feeling of being dropped into a completely alien world.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Great game! Just be glad you don’t have to swap the cd every 20 clicks. Riven was basically 1 disc per cutscene when it first came out and I remember getting very frustrated as a kid when I accidentally triggered an island switch and knew it’d be 10 minutes until I could get back.

Dark souls remastered, sekiro, and cities skylines

I got all the cheap classics I had been playing with an eyepatch and a peg leg years ago. I'm especially excited about Magicka 2 to play with friends. My nephew is gonna love them!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The langolier has caught much attention. Please share its purpose...

I bought "Inside". Was told it was basically predecessor to Little Nightmares and I'm really loving it so far

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I love Oxygen. It’s such a fun game. I can spend hours on just one save

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I also got it last sale but I think I had grown out of it and didn't realize it until I was watching the tutorials. Maybe it's one of those games I enjoy watching others play instead? I should've pirated it first before buying as I usually do...

I'm giving Yakuza: Infinite Wealth a hard look.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a great game and you should buy it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Nice! I got the previous entry for free on Playstation, and I really liked it.
