I haven’t really found anything, hence why I’m curious to what everyone else is picking up.
- Sanabi
- PARANORMASIGHT
- The Eternal Cylinder
Playing Sanabi right now which is actually quite long

Forza Horizon 4 Ultimate. Good deal for game and DLC bundle. Hoping it’s a chill game with the open world.
Untitled Goose Game. Wanted since it came out and cheap enough not to pass it up.
Cult of the Lamb. Let’s see what the fuss is about.
KIGHTFALL. So it’s horses with go kart phstics. Only a couple bucks. I’m in.
UnfairUtan@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Cult of the lamb was fun for me! I wish you a healthy cult little lamb
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 8 months ago
That reminder that the cult is just expendable resources made me love the game. I name them after my family and friends, and after I ran out of names, started adding numbers. So sacrificing Mom 4 and Sister 5 to the Outer Gods, only to save a new cult member and naming them Mom 5 and Sister 6 makes me laugh.
PeePantsMcgee@lemm.ee 8 months ago
I’m thinking about Forza horizon 4…not sure if I will though … anyone have anything else to add about it?
okamiueru@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I was surprised to see two games called Knightfall. No the one you’re referring to (assuming it was a typo), is a 2D dungeon crawler, and came out in 2017, with 13 reviews.
Huh, interesting that it’s OK to have such a similar name. Maybe it’s all OK until someone complains.
Jubei_K_08@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Poly Bridge if you’ve played World of Goo and similar games.
Nacktmull@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I considered getting TW Warhammer III … at least until I saw the scandalous prices for it’s DLCs. F**k you, SEGA!
UnfairUtan@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Yea…
If that’s any consolation, I bought the game before the DLCs came out, and it was more than enough to have fun with it.
ech@lemm.ee 8 months ago
It’s not on sale, but I had already decided to pick up Pacific Drive before I knew the sale was happening.
Also picked up Party Animals as a couch party game, and Outer Wilds as it’s been on my list for ages now.
AProfessional@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Pacific Drive is cool but it feels very drawn out and repetitive.
ech@lemm.ee 8 months ago
I’ve only played it a bit so far, but it’s been enjoyable fwiw. I’m pretty into looters and survival games, though, so if that’s not your bag, I can see it seeming boring. I find arena pvp shooters repetitive, personally. Everyone’s got their own interests.
echodot@feddit.uk 8 months ago
From watching other people play it, it seems like all you really do is drive from point a to point b while weird things happen. And occasionally random things break on your car.
Seems like an odd concept really.
darthsid@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Have played everything good that’s out there so nothing…
infinitevalence@discuss.online 8 months ago
Probably nothing unless a really good deal from my wish list shows up.
DrPop@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I bought Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth for myself And Bombrush Cyberfunk for my wife. I got the money from selling all my old tf2 items.
samus12345@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I loved Infinite Wealth! Don’t worry about FOMO if you didn’t get the DLC, it’s not that great.
DrPop@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I bought the deluxe version so I think I have it. I just found out you know who got the BIG C.
AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I picked up Solasta. Pretty decent, but awfully linear with no real RPG choices. Worth $8
nivenkos@lemmy.world 8 months ago
It’s more of a tactics game than an RPG really.
Like D&D X-COM.
other_cat@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I’ve never been so interested, so fast, as when you combined those two names.
ramsgrl909@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I bought:
- Orcs Must Die 3
- Thronefall
- Last Train Outta Wormtown
Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 8 months ago
Thronefall is one of my favorite games when I only have a few minute to burn in between when my kids leave me alone.
hal_5700X@lemmy.world 8 months ago
- Assetto Corsa Competizione with 2023 GT World Challenge Pack, 2020 GT World Challenge Pack, American Track Pack, & Intercontinental GT Pack DLCs
- Dungeon Travelers: To Heart 2 in Another World
Stern@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I bought Wrestlequest and You Suck at Parking. The former you probably won’t vibe with if you aren’t a big pro wrestling and maybe RPG fan. The latter is fun but at ten bucks on sale still feels a smidge overpriced
ObstreperousCanadian@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
If you want wrestling RPGs I highly recommend Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy.
Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
Got the two DLCs for Melvor and that’s probably that. Although I’ve been eyeing both Oxygen Not Included and Blood West ngl.
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 8 months ago
I finally got tired of Melvor after like a year and the first DLC. I guess I could see myself going back and doing the 2nd one at some point but my interest hasn’t been there since I put it down some time last year.
Even before that though I think that township thing was a huge misstep. I’m all for trying some new stuff as a dev and not everyone’s going to be happy but cramming some weird town management sim into the incremental rpg genre never really made much sense to me.
Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
Township does seem rather tacked on I agree, outside of the tasks there isn’t much to do and it doesn’t reward you enough to justify the money sink. Quite frankly, there’s a lot in the game that seems rather pointless outside of getting to lvl 99 (120 with DLC), but I guess that’s the point.
toxicbubble@lemmy.world 8 months ago
the forest, them’s fightin herds
mrfriki@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I’m tempted to get Risk of rain 2 at last but have some other games I already own in the back burner so will see.
Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
Ror2 is great and has solid mod support.
CluelessDude@lemmy.zip 8 months ago
Playing Goku and Vegeta is a blast on that game.
machinaeZER0@lemm.ee 8 months ago
I’m thinking about picking up a Persona, but haven’t decided where to start. Haven’t played one before but I’ve heard great things!
DrPop@lemmy.world 8 months ago
All the games are unique to themselves so you can start with any of them. I’d suggest 4 Golden personally.
machinaeZER0@lemm.ee 8 months ago
I was eyeing it - the price is very tempting, hahah. Any tips for a beginner?
snazzles@lemm.ee 8 months ago
Jedi Fallen Order! It’s a great game and only like £3.50 in the sale. Might also pick up Kingdom Come Deliverance and Mafia Definitive Edition since they’re both under £10
Gabu@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Personally, I’d say it’s a fair price at £3.50, but not worth more than that. Fallen Order should’ve been called “climbing simulator” instead, as that’s what you spend half of the game doing.
snazzles@lemm.ee 8 months ago
I honestly really enjoyed it but maybe I had the difficulty set hard enough that I was instead spending most of my time fighting. Tbf I also enjoyed the tomb raider trilogy which was mostly climbing puzzles
Bobmighty@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Ended up grabbing Jupiter hell and wizordum. Jupiter hell is a Doom adjacent top down turn based rogue like. Wizordum is a retro fps of the hexen variety. Both games evoke nostalgia in different ways for me.
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Jupiter Hell was okay. I absolutely LOVED doomRL, and felt the jump to Jupiter Hell, not certain why it didn’t click. The controls are interesting. And would still support the dev.
caesaravgvstvs@feddit.de 8 months ago
I’m a victim to good looking games
ABCDE@lemmy.world 8 months ago
That does look nice, and under $4 in my region… Fine!
FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 8 months ago
Not much of anything on the SteamDB website interested me, I bought Deadly Premonition: The Director’s Cut for $1.24
ABCDE@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Went to buy it… Already own it. Probably won’t play it anyway.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 months ago
The only things I currently want are Helldiver’s 2 and Shadow of the Erdtree. Neither of which are likely to go on sale soon. 😞
Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de 8 months ago
Maybe Lies of P or Star Ocean The Second Story R, plus one or two “Survivors-like” (Halls of Torment, Death Must Die).
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 months ago
+1 for Lies of P. It’s the most Fromsoft-like game of that style not made by Fromsoft I’ve ever played. So if you’re a big Soulsebornering fan, it’s right up there with those.
Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de 8 months ago
I’ve only heard good things and watched a Streamer playing it last year, and I want to play it eventually myself.
While I generally like Souls-like games, I never got into most Fromsoft games, except Elden Ring, so we’ll see how it goes.
ABCDE@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Halls is great, I need to go back and check if they’ve added anything else.
Aielman15@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Last summer I got one year of gamepass for free with the MS rewards program (before it was nerfed into oblivion), and I played a grand total of… Three games on it. Maybe four? Gaming doesn’t excite me like it used to. It’s not that good games aren’t released anymore. I guess I just got older and my taste changed.
I bought Golf with Friends and gifted another copy to a friend of mine, just to spend some good time with them. Nothing else really excites me.
Gabu@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I’m very tempted to get Dead Cells’ Castlevania DLC, but I haven’t been in the mood for metroidvanias lately. The base game is fantastic, though, and I absolutely recommend.
WereCat@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I’ve bought Witch Spring R to play on Steam Deck while I do memory OC and testing on my PC
SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
I recommend getting critically-acclaimed game “Half-Life”, it’s great with mods like Action Half-Life and They Are Hungry.
MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 8 months ago
Nothing. isthereanydeal wrote me there’s something off on GoG.
Matriks404@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Missing Euro Truck Similator 2 Map DLC’s :)
nugget359@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I just bought Balatro on Fanatical which came with a free game voucher so I picked up Grip: Combat Racing asking with it. Both really fun games.
Tempted to get FF7 remake but I need to put in more time with a Baldur’s gate 3 before buying another big game
ABCDE@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Does the combat in BG3 get better? Felt clunky to me and not sure I should continue.
nugget359@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I mean I suck at the game and play on the lowest difficulty, I just think the story is awesome. I’m the wrong person to ask lol
DaCrazyJamez@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Being based on DnD, it takes a little getting used to, especially compared to most RPG combat that were built for PC rather than tabletop. That said, while the system doesn’t get any less ‘clunky’ it does feel more natural as you become more familiar with it.
tomkatt@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Have a ton of games already, but I picked up Nuclear Blaze and Streets of Rogue on the cheap.
A week prior to the steam sale, got a good deal on River City Girls 2 and Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries on Fanatical, $15 for both together.
Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Streets of Rogue is amazing, especially with friends. Absolutely bonkers game.
