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!

Nothing. Everything its too expensive in argentina now

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I haven't bought anything. We've still got another week to go though, so I might pick up something. I'm a patient gamer so I'm still waiting for Cyberpunk and expansion to come down in price. Otherwise there isn't a whole lot that interests me right now.

I'm mostly waiting on updates for a few games I already own: Balatro is getting a big update in the new year, Enshrouded, Against the Storm, and Timberborn. I should get back in to BG3 too. I bought it on release and put 20 hours in and then just... stopped playing.

Finally playing Battlefield 1 and Battlefront 1, cause $3 is a good price to wait for. Only for the single player. I don't care about multi-player. Streamed from my PC to Steam Deck is great.

I wish I could play through it again with fresh eyes. I've played through it 3 times. Enjoy.

[–] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

a few games i pirated earlier in the year, heh, and Pathologic 2, Lunacid (as of a few seconds ago), Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 (to check out the openrct2 mod), dwarf fortress, & Odallus the Dark Call.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Neva and Plucky Squire. Oh and Islets.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Wayfinder, Gothic and Blades of Time so far.

[–] Aviandelight@mander.xyz 2 points 3 months ago

I didn't pick up any of the deep discount items but I did pick up a few items on my wishlist. I picked up Mouthwashing, WitchSpring R, Little Kitty Big City, the Nonory game collection and Okami HD. I already have the last two but I wanted them in the Steam library so I can play them on my deck.

[–] ExtraMedicated@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I don't remember if it was on sale, but I got 10 Dead Doves on a whim and I'm not dissapointed so far.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 3 months ago

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.

[–] enshu@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I got

  • Nightmares I and II
  • Firewatch
  • Never Alone
[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Spiritfarer: Farewell edition, Celeste and Stardew valley.

[–] Retreaux@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I ended up getting Metal Gear Rising: Revengence, Sonic Adventure 2, Prey, Daemon X Machina, and Dragon Age 2. I have no regrets in my eclectic sale impulses hahaha

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Dragon Age 2 is a bit ooof. Excellent combat, but the story and especially the scenery... you revisit the same parts of town and the same dungeon over and over and over.

Exit the Gungeon (It's meh) Okami Axiom Verge Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R (That didn't work for me, refunded) Fight Knight (Might refund, it's not fun) New Super Lucky's Tale (2 in 1, remaster and original. Cool)

[–] glitches_brew@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I misread that as enter the gungeon and got confused. But yeah exit the gungeon is a mobile game so it's mid to low tier.

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.

spoilerMage 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.

[–] Ozymandias1688@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Thaumaturge. Very atmospheric I think. Also, I think the setting is quite fresh, and I think that should be rewarded.

[–] enbiousenvy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago

I took Age4 Sultans Ascend DLC and Cossacks 3 in previous sale before winter because I ended up with a bit more money. Somehow I didn't spent much money as usual in October, cook food on my own instead of buying cooked food.

I don't really have any other wishlist now. Instead I really want to make my own rts game but I have not been able to be productive nor playing Cossacks 3. But I did spent a bit more time with Age4.

[–] sith@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Lots of CRPG and TRPG. A few experimental indie RTS. And a few indie auto-battlers. Plus a few casual co-op shooters. Oh, and some indie horror as well.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Caves of Qud or Path of Achra (I got them both). Aren't we hipster enough?

[–] Master@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Assassins Creed Odyssey and Fields of Mistrial.

Wasn't ajlot i wanted that i didnt already have.

[–] Alpha71@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I bought a few, but the one that got me was Microsoft flight simulator 2020. It looks amazing in VR.
