I have $50 that I can spend on Steam through a gift card, but I’m trying to wait for a sale for the games I want.

Currently, I might get Warno or Helldivers 2 or RuneScape Dragonwilds.

RuneScape 3 is an MMO that I grew up with and love, though I played OSRS originally and still do occasionally.

Warno might be interesting, but maybe too anti-Soviet or anti-communist? I have a friend playing it though and it seems like a milsim or tactical shooter of some sort.

And Helldivers 2 has several of my friends playing it.

I'm willing to play any of these games with someone since they're all multiplayer in one way or another.

I have other money that I'm saving up on so I likely won't dip into that.

I have a Steam Deck, a good laptop (but not good enough, I should say, and not as good as my Steam Deck) and a PS5, which I won't use in this case.

I also have Fallout 76 but I might rest on that before going back to it. In the meantime, I want one more multiplayer game that "everyone else" is playing. Fallout 76 just isn't that right now. But if you all want, we can play it; same with the other three games mentioned before.

I would say helldivers 2. It's not a great experience on the deck but IS cross-platform, so there's no drawback to getting it on ps5.

If you've got friends playing right now, I'd say get it. It's a very good game and they just released a big update with weapon customization.

Awesome, I'm leaning toward that one now. Thanks.
