I look forward to these threads between big sale times just to see what everyone is interested in. What are you interested in, Anon?
I still want to add something a bit more substantial to the mix. A small part of me is saying Wilds or Balder's Gate 3, but that's only because I am not seeing anything else that really calls to me. I assume STALKER 2 is still not worth it. What's relatively recent (past yearish) and good?
I got the NIS collection. They're alright, should have just played the roms.
>>729776804What collection is that, the Disgaea one?
>>729776926Makai Kingdom, La Pucelle Ragnarok, Soul Nomad, Phantom Brave, ZHP, Rhapsody
>>729776485Some of you "people" buy the weirdest fucking games ever.I think more highly of people buying badly done porn games that of people that buy literal shovelware garbage.
I've got Streets of Rage 4 and Earthion in my cart. I'll probably pull the trigger but I wanna finish a game I already bought first
>>729777118>that price for thoseOuch. They are all good (Rhapsody is very dated and you have to be okay with the animoo-tropes for La Pucelle), but not for that price.>>729777269SoR 4 is great.
>>729777242>something is shovelware because you don't know what it isWild Hearts is the highest budget, well-known title in there and it's also the worst by far.
All these minus the final fantasyAlso bought a humble bundle that had two games on my wishlist in it (Snufkin game & On Your Tail)
I missed RE6 after wasting all the money..
>>729778379RE6 is garbage. You did the right thing
Are there any games that have that Stick RPG vibe?
>>729778687I only care for the Mercenaries mode & the L4D2 stuff..maybe ill get it from cs.rin..maybe
>>729776409Any good Sseth-likes on sale?
oh wow look at all the things I can do without
Any recommendations of weird shit with barely any reviews?I'll share a few I liked in return:https://store.steampowered.com/app/2482920/Flower_in_Us/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3469850/Cradle_of_Nightmare__Flowers_to_you/There's also this one: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1413990/The_Heart_of_Darkness/ which sucked ass but I think some of /v/ might get a kick out of it
>>729776409Front mission 1st remake.I did emulate the snes version but never completed it
What are the best fashion games besides Souls, MH, and Dragon's Dogma?>>729779338How is it?
>>729779000EDF is great.
>>729776485I wonder how many of these you will have played by this day next year
>>729781325Considering the vast majority are really short, I'd say most of them.
>>729779368XCOM is basically soldier doll house. With mods you spend more time dressing up than killing aliens.
>>729779232my personal GOTY has almost no gameplay, its a "flicking between TV channels" simulatorhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3323850/Blippo/
>>729779232You already know
any chess game with anime, i wanted to learn chess, but it looks so boring unless theres anime girls to entertain me
What's better: Helldivers 2 or ARC Raiders for a solo player
>>729782492They have solo campaigns?
>>729782651They're multiplayer games but I think both can be played without a premade party. I don't know though, that's why I'm asking.
which one should i buy out of the 3?
>>729783216If you like SMT, definitely SMT.
Recommend me a myst-like, I only played Myst and Riven.A desolate empty world to explore is a must have
>>729783687Look into Quern
I was going to grab more vampire surivvor clones but I said fuck it, time to cut my addiction
>>729776409>What are you interested in, Anon?Just Code Vein and Endless Alice, though I doubt I will buy them this sale, pretty sure I have seen CV a little cheaper and EA is EA still, so I'm a little wary of getting it for now.
>>729784232Code Vein has been 6 bucks before and is honestly not that great. If you rip out the fan service, it's a jank soulslike.
Dont know what I want, probably just going to buy these and let them rot in my library
what i'm gonna be getting
>>729784959nine sols is on humble monthly, you still have time to get it there.
>>729776409I love JRPGs with a side of Metroidvanias.
Help me Anons. I'm sick at home on NYE with zero energy. What's a totally brainless, low-effort game I can zone out with right now?
I think is good.
recommend me some citybuilder/building design (like hospital or museum) games.
>>729783216Between Majima's game and SMT, I would choose SMT. Can't say anything about Ratatan
Im thinking of getting dlcs for Division 2 i already completed main game but im not really sure (i want to get ult edition so i skip some shit im currently redownloading the game)>>729786548I bought Xcom games ages ago and im yet to play them i guess im not in the mood to deal with managment shit and Exped was ok but half way throught i got bored and i really disliked the ending.
theres too much to play but also nothing to play. almost like I'm burnt out of gaming or something
>>729784959You can remove everything besides the top left 3 and patapon
Thought about it some more, revised.
rate.
>>729777242fuck off and go boot up spiderman or horizon zero dawn
>>729784959Stray is not good
i bought golf with friends and its fun
>>729788805>theres too much to play but also nothing to playThat's what forcing yourself to play something that you naturally don't want to play causes, actual burn out. For me i just consider there are very limited options in what to play.
>>729783062You can solo queue in Helldivers 2 with no issues.I've played it with both friends and alone.
I considered picking up Phantom Fury at 70% off but i needed to watch a bunch of analyses of it again to find out just how bad it really is, if there were any positives or high notes in its gameplay. And even then it makes it look like the game that ended nu 3D Realms might not be salvageable. Any boomer shooter player have experience with it? i mean how dirt cheap should it ideally go before i decide that it is worth what they ask?
>>729788926KCD 2 is on gog and I am somewhat glad that I did not get it on steam. Lots of content, really fun for the first 20-30h. Afterwards I completely burned out on it. No idea why the main story gets such high praise, it was a convoluted mess and I didnt care for any of the characters
That's my haul.Also considering Cauldron, anyone played that?
>>729791203Interested in Easy Delivery Co., how is it?
>>729791250Haven't played it yet because it said gamepad recommended and I left it in the other place.
i boughtsleeping dogsschedule 1necesseff7 (original one)shadow warrior 2master chief collectionslay the spiresonic maniaand i spent 5 dollars to buy a sega bass fishing key on a keyshophow did i fare boys?
>>729791335>necesseI had great fun with that one, 94h played, and I didn't do all the content, also that was before 1.0
>>729776409Bought 3 games this sale.The Alters, it's definitely a great buy for me, kind of surprising that I've never even heard about this game before this sale, would easily recommend it if the premise interests you.Everspace 2, sadly this was a miss for me, the gameplay feels very repetitive and boring 5 hours in, and I think I'm getting physically filtered by the gameplay since I got a headache after playing it, might be because you spin around so much while flying around doing puzzles or fighting other space ships.Troubleshooter, this feels like a miss, I was told it gets better later on, but I'm getting filtered over how slow the game is at the start, I'm almost 5 hours in and it feels like I'm still playing the tutorial since I only have 2 characters in my company even though the game let's you play with other characters that I assume will join you later on, but they're kind of uninteresting to me (most of them are just fist fighters with elemental powers). I kind of wish you could make a generic unit like in XCOM so I could self insert or something to make the game feel more interesting.
>>729784420I could never get into Fruit of Grisaia. I know it's apparently really good, but after an hour I couldn't stop cringing. I guess I just went in wanting to romance some anime women and couldn't accept the cringe OC self-insert.
>>729784959>PataponAvoid Patapon. It's fucked. >Yeah! You want --Get 2 IMO. It's just better.>>729789114You missed Furry Shades of Gay 2
How much of a chud list is this
>>729792997You missed out this one king https://store.steampowered.com/app/1714420/Fursan_alAqsa_The_Knights_of_the_AlAqsa_Mosque/
>>729776409i miss dishonored. I loved that game. How is dishonored 2? Is it pozzed?
>>729793176Well it is kinda pozzed like guard capitain npcs are women (idk what is the ration like is it all or 50/50) your daughter is also implied that she was in relationship with another woman BUT the game does come with some qol shit so honestly i would rec you to buy the game from 3rd party site so 1.Devs get no money 2.It is probably cheaper that way
>>729776409The only two games on my wishlist are way too early in alpha to buy. The rest are looking to release later this year. It's going to be an amazing year, but there's absolutely nothing to do at this very moment

Is hell is us any good?
>>729776409I bought Death Stranding DC, Dave the Diver, Divinity OS 1+2, and Wandersong
Final haul. Wasn't planning on buying this much shit.Etrian Odyssey was from a keysite
Is FTL worth it for the mods? I already pirated vanilla for 50-100 hours since launch.
test
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1580800/Erannorth_Chronicles/Possibly gonna get those for deckbuilding/characterbuilding strategic stuff
>>729791250It kinda gets old after the first hour/city, but it doesn't matter that much since it's only 4-5h long. comfy aesthetics, a lot of driving with nonimpressive physics.
>>729776409So far my favorite buy this sale was Hades. I heard positive things so I gave it a try and after 6 hours of playing I loved it so much I bought Hades 2 just so I can continue as soon as I'm done with the first one.
>>729789542>That's what forcing yourself to play something that you naturally don't want to play causes, actual burn out.Which is why only retards believe in "backlogs"
Thoughts on the updated cart?Wanna give GW2 a run since I remembered liking the first one, also added Peggle for the heck of it.
>>729797801For a second I thought you meant guild wars two.
>>729776409I'm looking for a game to play while I gen stuff on stable diffusion at the same time. Something turn based, long lifespan, long learning curve but not too steep.
>didnt buy any games yet so I can still participate in these threads
>>729789114Where is Assassin's Creed Shadows you stupid bigot chud?
Revision number 2Still kind of want to pick up some casual games.
>>729783687The Rhem series and Drowned God
got 10€ left on my steam walletwhat should I buy
Should I buy Celeste? It's like $5 I think. I liked The End is Nigh, it seems pretty similar and I guess the game is well-received enough but my overall sense of it has been it's mostly because it's streamer meme shit.
I need something for 5.99 which I am not able to pirate. Co-op a plus.
>>729783687I mean the obvious recommendations are Myst III and Myst IV, if you haven't played them. Also Quern, as another anon said, which is basically just a Myst fangame.Incidentally, if what you're into is "desolate, empty world to explore" with some puzzle-solving, I'd recommend Infra, though calling it a "Myst-like" is a bit of a stretch. It's much more linear than any of the Myst games, you progress from chapter to chapter and there's not REALLY a "big puzzle" that everything else feeds into. But it's definitely a game that plops you alone into a crumbling world full of weird mystery and tasks you with environmental problem-solving to navigate it.For other reasons I'd recommend Outer Wilds, it shares a lot more of Myst/Riven's narrative and puzzle structure, though the game's world is not "desolate and empty".
Currently in my cart is:Children of SilentownBrigadorInto the BreachGranvirDyson Sphere ProgramPhantom BrigadeCyberpunk 2077: Phantom LibertyChrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers EditionThe Bureau: XCOM DeclassifiedHave room for one more small game, but I might just roll with this.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1318740/Farlanders/Anyone played this? Looks fun
>>729798932It's been cheaper but it's worth 5 bucks
>>729798932It is not like the end is nigh, however it is one of the best games ever made. And as an actual video game, like with actual good gameplay, and not because of some art style or story
>>729797905lol no, that game is like almost 15 years old.
>>729799559>It is not like the end is nighIn what ways is it not? My basis for that comparison is>screen-based level layout>precise platforming challenge, based on iterations of a simple mechanic (air dash for celeste, wall hook for tEiN)
>>729798835Cyber hook and monster sanctuary.
>>729799269Into the Breach is a great puzzle game. Love it
>>729783216Ratatan is in early access and it's average at best, just replay patapon
>>729800520I picked it up early this sale after eyeballing it for 7 years. And damn, I should’ve jumped at launch. I figured it was good since it’s the FTL guys and while it isn’t as immersive as FTL, the gameplay is incredibly tight and rewarding. Can’t wait to see what their next game is
Anyone else with a small kid? Fucking hell, my days consist of work, coming home giving care and cleaning only. There is barely if at all time for video games or literally anything right now. The game is mostly on pause the whole time, if I had the chance to boot it up.
>>729801436dead beat
>>729801457Not an option.
What do you think?
>>729801436Why did you conceive a kid? Smartass
>>729801749pls stop
>>729802308Why?
Thoughts on Evenicle? Was thinking of getting it, or Bunny Garden. I badly need some slop to devour this new year day..
>>729801436You don't belong here
