1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

I might pick up monster train and doom eternal. Yeah, I still haven't played doom eternal.

[–] Elextra@literature.cafe 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I really like Monster Train. Its my favorite after Slay the Spire.

[–] Schal330@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Monster train 2 is even better!

It seems, like... nothing ?

[–] Lootboblin@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Probably these: Doom Eternal (3.99€), Dust to End (2.99€), Night of the Dead (8.69€), Days Gone - Broken Road DLC (5€) and Sniper Elite 5 (5€)

Can't find anything worth playing so far.

[–] Auth@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Darktide 67%, X4 at 75% and Hades 75% off are all extremely tempting. I need to start seeding the idea of buying darktide to my friends. I dont even think its worth buying any of these when im so hopelessly addicted to Beyond All Reason.

Probably nothing, as I'm already kinda busy juggling Silksong and Hades 2 with the occasional Starvaders and Splatoon 3 session. I might end up just getting Cuphead for later though, and would maybe have considered God of War or Spiderman if there weren't so many other great games to play.

For people who haven't played it, Ori and the Will or the Wisps is a great buy at 75% off. Probably my favorite metroidvania if you don't count Tunic as a metroidvania.

Got both Hellblade games for $26 last night. I didn't even know a sequel came out until yesterday.

[–] Peter_Arbeitsloser@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago (4 children)

It's a cool tech demo.

Played the demo of Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream a while back so might buy it now it's 20% off. Not surprised it got "Overwhelmingly Positive". Bloody excellent game.

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 3 points 2 months ago

If it would have had Swedish voice acting I would have bought it.

i didn't get anything in summer sale so this time I might indulge

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

Only buying Ghost of Tsushima and just gifting Cyberpunk 2077 to a friend. It feels like every sale it's the same deals, at least to me.

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I mean I was kinda tempted to get Planet Crafter, but then I thought about it for a bit and realized that I didn't really want it.

Edit: I ended up buying it and Goblin Cleanup because I got paid for a job after making this comment. I ended up playing for 7 hours straight because I just wanted to see the next tier/level of stuff

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Recommend 1000xRESIST if you want a story game.

[–] charles@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just purchased Stationeers and that's likely it for me. I've been meaning to pick it up forever and it rarely goes on sale, so it felt like a safe choice!

[–] ThunderComplex@lemmy.today 3 points 2 months ago

Ahh that game is so great but I hate it and can never get far in it. It both scratches a itch that almost no other game can yet is so exhausting to play I can never keep at it for more than a couple hours.

[–] Nelots@piefed.zip 2 points 2 months ago

I'd like to buy Sea of Stars or Dungeons of Hinterberg. They've both been on my wishlist for a while. But I can't really justify the cost rn, and I already have a huge backlog to work through. So I'll probably skip this autumn sale as well.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (5 children)

Never played the first Hades. Never played Cult of the Lamb. They're both on sale now, and they seem like pretty good Steam Deck games.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

Hades plays very nice on steam deck

[–] Trual@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Two of my favorites games on the deck
