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!
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.
Covid.
Oooh so retro
I’m in great pain lol
Wanted to play It Takes Two with my gf when it launched. Hoping to convince her now that she’s my wife
Oh It Takes Two is a good one! Played it with my partner a while back and had a great time!
Played it with my wife. We both agreed the gameplay is great but the story is awful. We disagreed that they should stay together in the end.
It Takes Two is an amazing couples game that my girlfriend refuses to play again because of one scene lol
That damned elephant?
Aye, that’s the one.
This is my favorite game ever!!! Enjoy the experience.
Divinity 2: Original Sin, because I’m 30hrs into BG3 and it’s really good
The beginning of D:OS2 felt like a cheat code to get more BG3 after I’d already finished BG3, but as time went on, I found that everything from RPG systems to pacing of combat/non-combat is leagues better in BG3, to say nothing of the production value that’s obviously better in BG3. Still a good game, but the improvement between each of their RPGs is immense.
I have to say I very much prefer the combat system in OS as it feels much more natural and less restrictive than the DnD combat in BG3. Of course the latter has far more content, but I’m looking forward to Larian’s next game where they can finally go wild again and do things they want exactly the way they want.
I felt far more restricted by D:OS2’s armor system. Freeform classes sound great on paper, but it also means you kind of naturally end up at a spot where you’ve got everything instead of making meaningfully difficult choices in classes or multiclassing. Learning abilities from books leads to a lot of money bottlenecks and leveling decisions that I didn’t care for. The way that the combat usually doesn’t have any chance to hit, but then does very occasionally, makes missing an attack feel like bullshit rather than a calculated risk. I’m also looking forward to whatever they do next, maybe even a sci-fi interstellar RPG, but I hope they don’t go back to the Divinity well too often for RPG mechanics.
money bottlenecks
Laughs in Thievery Skill
I envy you. I’ve got 1400 hours in Bg3. I love the game but i wish i could forget it to play it fresh again.
D:OS2 is one of the very few games that made me cry with the emotions I had for my characters. I hope you like it, great game.
Grabbed the mass effect series for under a fiver. Played for a few hours and realized I was not enjoying it at all.
Nothing. It was a difficult choice, but it was a necessary sacrifice in favor of the games, collecting dust in my library :*-)
Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk. Never played either one, but I’m starting with Stardew
Really really wanted to like Stardew, but oh my god, so much walking around! Could’ve really done with an ebike
You can get a horse and there are lot’s of QoL mods for the game
I wish I could play Cyberpunk for the first time again. Enjoy! Did you see the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners? Would highly recommend.
Finally got Tunic. I’m pretty happy 6 h in!
Same. That and Pizza Tower.
Nothing. Everything its too expensive in argentina now
Tactical Breach Wizards. It’s a nice little puzzle game with some dry humor that ive actually chuckled too a few times. Its a lot of fun so far.
The talos principle 1 & 2. Playing through 1 now, and it’s excellent. Some of the puzzles are complex, but most can be solved in 5-10 minutes and give a nice “ah-ha!” moment. It reminds me of portal 2, but with a heavier and more ambiguous story about the nature of life and consciousness. Highly recommended.
Also been playing some Dome keeper and Peglin. Both also excellent in their own ways.
Both Talos Principle games are a treat. Really love the philosophy and story mixed in between the puzzles. Enjoy!
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)
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 don’t know whether I have the original or remaster, but I personally believe New Super Lucky’s Tale is a pretty fun game.
I bought Reka and Baldurs Gate 3, haven’t played BG3 yet but Reka is fun! It’s buggy so I’m holding off on playing more until it’s a bit more stable but I’m excited. Been playing a bit of my backlog though before jumping into BG3.
Everspace for 99 Cents. :)
An excellent choice, and the sequel is also great, although the gameplay is very different.
Game was hard for me to get into but once it clicked, it was awesome
Same, not tried it yet
It’s great.

And I gifted Freedom Planet 2 to a friend.
The Winter Sale isn’t over until January 2nd, so I might buy some more games before it ends. Problem is, I own most of the games on the Steam front page, so finding new and interesting games is getting difficult.
Fear Effect Sedna
Pain.
I have absolutely no idea what it’s about, but it’s only $2 (90% off) and I’m a sucker for steep deals, so I couldn’t pass it up.
It’s not fear Effect that’s for sure. You’re better off spending the time emulating (since they are hella expensive physical) Fear Effect 1 and 2: Double Helix.
Resident evil camera angle and gameplay but with super spy lesbians
Problem is, I own most of the games on the Steam front page, so finding new and interesting games is getting difficult.
This. I feel totally underwhelmed by the sale this year because everything on the front page I already either own or have no interest in. I know the discovery queue exists, but it primarily tries to feed me the same jank I already know exists.
