I picked up Total War: WARHAMMER III and Pennon and Battle, both strategy games. I’m thinking of getting Baldur’s Gate 3 as well. This should keep me busy for a while. My holiday plan is to stay home and game!
Actually nothing this time. I got back into Elite Dangerous hard and play it pretty much every minute of my gaming time currently.
I got
- Nightmares I and II
- Firewatch
- Never Alone
I got:
Saints Row 2022 Not actually that bad honestly. I think we were too harsh on them. It’s still fun, the characters are likeable, and it’s got all the stuff you expect for a saints row game.
CP Phantom Liberty Not gonna be able to get this played for a bit but I’m hopeful.
Anemoiapolis I like backrooms and I got Pools a few weeks ago but got kind of bored so hopefully this one is better since it has actual puzzles.
I’m spoilering these. You know what that means. Don’t fucking @ me.
spoiler
Mage Kanade’s Futanari Dungeon Quest
Midnight Castle Succubus
Tower and Sword: Succubus These last two are part of a series, and I already played Castle in the Clouds. Even without the porn it’s still a competent side scroller action platformer so I have good hopes for these two.
Might get more idk.
- Firewatch
- Alice Madness Returns
- Alan Awake
- It Takes Two
- Kingdom Two Crowns
Noita!
Also the Dead Cells DLCs.
Noita is easily the best game released in few years, great buy!
I personally grabbed quite few beers
Bustafellows (95% sale). I have a huge backlog of [email protected] to play, and Bustafellows is not on it. But it was also like $2 so… worst comes to worst, I play the game some day, hate it, and my purchase serves to signal “hey, English-speaking ladies who do not live in Japan also like otome games, localizing them is a good business choice”. Which means more otome for me! I have heard of so many Japan-only games that sound so cool but also I cannot play them because I won’t understand a damn thing the characters say, and they are usually super story-based.
The Magic Circle. I forget what recommendation list I saw it on to be honest, but it still seems to hold up as something I would like and think is cool.
I like [email protected] games, so I was going to grab Parkitect, saw it in a bundle with more tycoon games, grabbed the bundle to also collect Project Hospital and Game Dev Tycoon. (I already had Parkasaurus.)
I also like automation games. I think its community might be on a dead instance… maybe I’ll make a new one. Finally grabbed myself Factorio (will never be on sale) along with Satisfactory (finally out of Early Access. I will never buy an EA game, I will always wait for it to exit EA).
Finally, Sun Haven. Stardew Valley fan, from what I have seen of SH it seems like something I’d like, and price dropped.
Aside from Factorio, everything I grabbed was on sale. Aside from Satisfactory, all the sales were 50% or more.
Might get more. We will see.
I’ve been playing Parkitect over the last months, it’s pretty fun! Usually I don’t stick with Tycoon games for long, but I did >10 campaign levels there.
Only bummer is that the tooling around blueprints is pretty underdeveloped (can’t sort/tag them, very inflexible), and it gets tiring to recreate all the basic decorations around food courts etc.
Newest creaper world
Did they release a fifth installment?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2257010/Creeper_World_IXE/
I’ve watched a couple gameplay videos by the dev and it looks good.
I bought it and I’m a bit disappointed, it scratches the creeper itch a bit but it kinda does away with the creeper world formula of making massive bases
I got 30XX and it’s been a blast so far. Probably gonna keep me busy for a while.
Good choice! Been a fan of that one since the Next Fest demo. It’s changed a lot since then.
I got Life is Strange: Double Exposure. It was meh. Not super bad but had enough bugs to push it in that direction.
After that I played The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow which was phenomenal.
I like boomer shooters and immersive sims, so I picked up Selaco and Fallen Aces. Both are good so far. Selaco has some maze-like levels that can be a bit annoying, but the gunplay is very fun and the level of polish and detail is very high. Fallen Aces is awesome for the amount of ways it gives you to deal with the goons.
I got Gelatine after forgetting about it being in my wishlist for half a year
Dread Delusion and Lunacid. Also thinking of finally picking up Factorio
I always read someone talking about picking up Factorio like they are they are casually announcing they are starting experimenting with narcotics. Have fun! Make a plan to quit before it breaks up your family.
I tried the demo and had an “uh oh I really like this” moment
Yeah I’m fully addicted
Welcome friend
Lunacid! I forgot how excited I was for that to come out. Swooping in to snag it now, thanks
In total, the only 2 games I’ve gotten that I know we’re part of the sail were Sonic Origins (with DLC) and Sonic Mania (with DLC). Would be playing them more if I wasn’t having to message Steam back and forth trying to get an issue with my deck fixed, though.
BG3
I wish I could play through it again with fresh eyes. I’ve played through it 3 times. Enjoy.
Neva and Plucky Squire. Oh and Islets.
