Detroit: Become Human and Harry Potter for under $10. Pretty nice sales.
I had been saving up for Deltarune, avoiding spoilers for years (didn’t have time to even play the demo)
Palworld. Even though it never goes below 20€
I was looking at Fallout 76 since its 90% off but what’s the concensus on it? Plan is to play with the wife.
I was really positively surprised by it! Picked it up two years ago and thought I’d spend a couple of hours in it. I’ve spent almost 200 hours in Appalachia by now - one of my favourite comfort games!
I like it a lot. It’s not my favorite of the games, but I think it’s a great game whether played in a public lobby or not. I do usually prefer a private lobby, but not always.
Welcome to Kowloon and The Swapper are both ones I’ve had on my list and both are about $2. Why not?
Besides that, I’m going to try and play some more Baldur’s Gate 3 or Cyberpunk 2077 during the holidays, as I’m still in the early stages of both.
The Pathfinder games are on sale.
I might grab wasteland 2 and 3
Is there any advice for Persona 3? It’s super confusing
As in which version to buy? There’s an unreal engine remaster called Reload which is a full remake of the PS2 game and then a PSP port. The former has improved gameplay and the latter is like a VN with the dungeon crawling as the unvarnished original. PSP port does have exclusive content in terms of a female MC alternative story but I’d say that was for real enthusiasts
Thanks!
I think it’s been 3 consecutive years now that ive been waiting on a deep sale for some titles, but they have yet to reach lower than 10 bucks (max I’m willing to pay).
Some of them aren’t particularly old releases so I dont mind waiting more:
- Signalis
- Caravan SandWitch
- UFO50
- Season
- System Shock (remake)
- No Man’s Sky
- Red Dead Redemption 2
- Nier Automata
I might get those:
- Rain World
- Weird West
- Card Shark
- OlliOlli World
Definitely get Card Shark if you have a gamepad. I bought it a couple days ago, and I’m in love with it.
Oh wow thanks for the reminder, i actually live close to where that game stars off, so it’s a must play haha
Rdr2 is free on epic on new years day.
UFO50 is good value even when it isn’t on sale imo. So much content crammed into it!
auomata is so so so worth it
Depends on what you’re looking for. I’d confidently recommend against buying it if you’re looking for an action game. There’s at least 10 better, cheaper candidates on Steam.
No Man’s Sky is fun and worth it
I spent way too long thinking “my body is a machine…” was the title of a game lol. Incredible meme.
here is your reminder to take a peek over on GOG aswell. personally found steam’s offerings pretty lacking this year. GOG’s; less so.
Or just make sure you check isthereanydeal.
True, I however got a Steam voucher as a present recently so it made more sense to use it for this. GOG doesn’t do vouchers or do they? Couldn’t find it last time I looked, you can gift specific games though. I might just be blind.
Anyway, to keep with theme of the thread I got 3 games for my voucher:
Dave the diver
Tunic
The last campfire
I remember Stranglehold being mind-blowing for its time. I’m pretty sure I had a physical copy that is long gone, but 5 bucks is not much to see how it has held up.
Also strongly considering breaking my early access rule to check out Jump Space. The main thing holding me back is trying to get a few friends to pick it up as I don’t want the crew to just be me and a bot.
Slay the spire ringed is the lowest its ever been
One of my favorite games
I seem to already have all the deep discounts I‘d be interested in… I currently only buy 80%+ discounts (if anything) since experience has taught me that anything lower than this will get there again very soon, so I’m not missing out by skipping now. I have like 200 untouched games anyway so I‘d probably just be throwing more on the pile… Gifts for friends are in the cart tho
So far just dlc for games I already own. Maybe I’ll get Slime Rancher.
I love Slime Rancher! Highly recommend.
I have a lot of games I haven’t played yet in my library, so I will patiently wait for another sale
Where can I learn this skill?
Understood. Buying all the Star Wars games.
Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor have a really attractive bundle for both, actually. Pretty fun games if you like the soulsbourne formula.
This is the way.
I’m getting a 4-pack of Tabletop Simulator. Not sure if that counts, since I already did that once—I have new people to try to rope into playing boardgames digitally with me, lol.
Board Game Arena is so good already, though!
Maybe, sorta. But there are a zillion games it can’t play, it’s expensive AF ($42€/yr for premium), and it’s not nearly as immersive since it’s not actually a simulator.
It’s a cool site if you just want to pop into a casual game, but not so great if I want to play something even medium heavy like Clank!
Edit: That looks aggressive… The game is called “Clank!”
- You don’t need premium membership to play premium-only games; you only need 1 person at the table to have a subscription and then everyone else can enjoy the game for free. There are usually tables open looking for players, and if there is no open table to join, free participants can even put out a request for a subscriber to make a new table for strangers to join.
- You can get 1 month of premium membership at a time for every 100 gift points that you acquire (which gradually expire if left unused). You can gain 5 gift points for winning for your first time at any game, so you can even rig it with someone else to just win at Battleship, Chess, etc. You can also acquire more gift points by contributing to tutorials, wiki entries per game (rules, strategies, etc.), or I think even filing bug reports or improvement ideas per game that get approved by the developers.
- TTS and Tabletopia are 100% manual so you must already know the rules really well per game, whereas BGA holds your hand through all legal moves, so my circle of friends and I have even used it to learn new games blind (even though they also often have a tutorial). It also has a note system so you can type notes for yourself to remember things between rounds, if you choose to play in the optional turn-based mode (make your move whenever you’re next able to, versus real-time in which all players must be online simultaneously).
Loads of games in TTS are fully scripted. As both a BGA and TTS fan, I still lean towards TTS. It’s more fun and supports way more types of play and with the Community Workshop, there’s so many fun custom games on there too.
Thanks, TIL! Here I was thinking it was all manual!
There’s also a digital adaptation of Clank, though I haven’t tried it myself. I know the same developers made Root Digital for Leder Games and that adaptation is well-received.
