where is steam chan? is she ok? is she safe?

How is Gloomwood? It looks fun but it being early access puts me off

This is what I got over the weekend. Autism is fun.

>Bought the FF7 dual pack since I have plenty of time to play vidya during the next 10 days
>playing FF7REmake
>hey man this is pretty cool I wonder why did this got so much ha-
>30 hours in and the game STILL going
>not sure if I want to play 7 and rebirth back to back now
But you guys are having fun with your purchases r-r-right?

>>714736290
it's great, basically thief with dishonored map design
got about 9 hours out of it which I felt justified the price tag. Roughly half-done from what I gather.

Can anyone recommend me games that look like this in presentation and aesthetics, but is FPS, RPG, or less of a walking sim? thanks.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2240530/BABBDI/

Also Metal Garden may classify as what I'm looking for too.

Maybe Lorns Lure?

>>714736171
He was a tranny and jumped off a bridge
Sad + many such cases

>>714736409
Anon, Remake is the shorter one. Rebirth is longer and packed with minigames.
Why would you pick up a newer JRPG and not actually want hours of content?
I did the same thing with the Kingdom Hearts collection last year and barely touched it.

I actually haven't bought anything yet, a first for me so far.

I didn't realize how much having steam-chan there on the front page got me to take my wallet out, hope she comes back.

>>714736070 (OP)
I've bought 24 games, now maybe I will only buy again at the end of the year. I really need to upgrade my PC

>>714736409
Remake took me like 40 hours ignoring the VR challenges since I didn't finish all of them.

I still wouldn't do it back to back, even if Rebirth is a much better game.

>>714737543
wait a goddamn second

>>714737543
Now update the one with Ar Tonelico.

>>714736834
>lorns lure
I got that one too. But thanks anyway. It's tough hunting down a specific look that you like seeing but there's only a few devs who have done it, which i think could be described as dark and dystopian concrete jungles. Just liek there is few devs that have done gritty industrial psychological horror aesthetics in non horror games.

When is the prime gaming drop?

>>714737543
Made me look up Xenosaga, dang

>>714737340
> I really need to upgrade my PC
You probably don't. Those games will run in any toaster. You are more than settled for the remainder of year.

Alright, I'm looking for some nice long games (like 20-30+ hours) to sink my teeth into.
Just recently finished Subnautica (would recommend it's also half off) and I'm looking for something else to occupy myself until next sale.
Might get Cyberpunk 2077 because people say it's actually good now.

>>714737790
It already did. Only shitty games, though. Can't remember them

>>714737694
Rockstar would never sell RDR1 for 19.99!

>>714737890
Hmm it doesn't say what will actually drop on prime *day* which is the 8th.

Perhaps since the deals aren't going away I'll wait till the 9th to put together a real cart.

already finished peripeteia.

any suggestions? this is what i bought so far.

>>714736409
Same sorta but I'm burning out on Stranger of Paradise after beating the main story.
It feels like I have to do a ton of grinding for levels to get from post-game Hard mode to the DLC Bahamut difficulty

>>714738078
I can buy a copy of RDR for the 360/PS3 for less than $1.

>>714738168
The real game is just starting anon

Coomers, are these good plays?

>>714736070 (OP)
>brother gave me 70 bucks for my bday last week right before the summer sale started
>thinking about getting stuff I can’t pirate
I’m considering helldivers, deep rock galactic, and.. so far that’s it. I’m pretty over comp multiplayer games. Any anons know any other good online coop games where I can be sweaty if I want, but also chill and have a good time?

I've only bought Peripeteia and nothing else on sale. Tell me what kind of games that might interest me. I don't think I've missed anything. For some reason i really just like exploring cyberpunk or futuristic cities at night or in dark worlds that eternally lit up by skyscraper lights and neon signs. That's really appealing to me.

>>714738336
For me, it's Vermentide 2

>>714738310
MS2 is great but censored on steam, if you have a switch/switch 2 the version on the nintendo store of MS 2 is the one to get, it comes with MS1

>>714738283
Yeah, and I'm probably never going to get there at my current rate lmao, I'm a level 60-some knight with 210ish gear and I'm pretty sure I need to be way higher and figure out a subjob.

>>714738465
what the fuck, just forget it Ill play something else

How do I stop falling for garbage recommendations?

>>714738382
Oh and i should mention I've already played the Ghostrunner games and Ruiner. Robocop Rogue City too.

>>714737728
Have you tried control? The Old House its practically a brutalist megastructure

>>714738413
Oh I completely forgot about that one. Based, thanks anon.

Is The Surge actually any good?

thingken of pulling the trigger already
opinions/recommendations accepted

>>714738964
Best soulslike I've played apart from nioh

Here's what I bought and paid for

>9 Kings
Decent enough for me to watch Plex while I'm playing.
>Wandering Swords
Pretty sprites but the game mechanics seems kind of shallow. When you start the game, go to the Precipice in the northwest and jump off a cliff at the end of the dungeon. You get a game over and can restart on Extreme.
>Robocop
Was fun. Enjoyable for $5, would have pissed me off if I paid $60 for it.

>>714738592
It's a fantastic dungeon crawler, blame Valve for this one.

>>714737828
I will shill the X games again for being cheap and 100+ hour long games
>X2: The Threat
>X3: Reunion
>X3: Terran Conflict (+Albion Prelude optionally)

>>714738964
Best scifi souls-like there is. I found the dismembering mechanic very addicting. I only played the first game though

>>714736070 (OP)
What are some good SHMUPS?

>>714739001
Arx Fatalis on steam ? It's a drm free game and you'll have to use arx libertatis anyway.

>>714739057
Hmmm. Well how severely is it censored?
Does the Steam version of MS2 come with MS1?

>>714739001
If you somehow haven‘t played these, rayman origins and dead space 2

>>714739237
It removed a rubbing minigame.

There's an offsite restoration patch:
https://www.ghostlight.uk.com/post/mary-skelter-2--gets-a-restoration-patch

Redpill me on Bannerlord

dunno feeling cute

>>714739237
They removed a few scenes and the rubbing minigame
It doesn't come with 1, I heard the port was generally not great. I would suggest just emulating switch if you must or installing the patch anon linked.

>>714739001
Hades is over-hyped dogshit carried by its artstyle, dont waste your time with it.

>>714739438
Is 2 any better?

>>714738465
What about the gog version?

Crash Bandicoot for $4 really is a steal

>>714739569
Also censored but this time because the devs were lazy

>>714739568
I never tried it so I wouldn't know.
The art looked worse though. All the lighting angles look fucked up.

Im calling it here, still have a few temptations but I should really stop.

>>714739568
2 is best imo. It's a straight up improvement over 1 imo, in fact the 1st game is in 2. Play 2 then 1 if you plan on playing all 3.

3 is... odd.

>>714736070 (OP)
Hello my dudes. I need recommendations for programming games.
Something like Zachtronics, or maybe The Farmer was replaced

Will buy a game for an uncut dirty neet willing to tribute my favorite girl

>>714739847
Am i ever getting a gf, future-anon?

>>714739847
3 is fucking amazing

>>714739867
baba is you if you haven't already played it

I have bought these games
Buy from Fanatical, it has the best deals and amazing bundles. Also I'm trans btw if that matters

>>714740297
I bought gungrave for $2 on this site.

>>714739847
I still can't believe the Dark Souls collab 3 had. Never expected to see Gwyn outside of FromSoft.

I only just realized Guild Wars was on Steam.

>>714740015
Not really what he is asking for, though Baba is excellent.

>>714739867
I assume you exhausted Zachtronics and The Farmer was Replaced? Try looking at The Signal State, Prime Mover, Infinite Turtles, or anything from that same dev. None of those are as good as Zachtronics games, but they are along the same lines.

>>714739957
If you're willing to improve yourself, accept a few losses and, possibly, lower your standards: Yes. Do some minor physical training every day; the OPM workout will work. Build up to it, accept failure as you go if you've never done a a pushup in your life.
After you've done that for about 2 months, 3 months if starting at 0, then try to ask a girl out. Accept loss. Ask 2 a day.
To reiterate: Accept loss.
One of the primary thing women do look for is physical attributes. You do the same thing, don't even lie. You do not have to be an alpha male. You don't have to have yuge muscles. You don't need some Joe Rogan level of charisma. You don't need to be funny. Just willing to accept loss as you try and to continue to improve yourself.
You will fail at times. This is normal. Continue on. A successful day is a day you did not fail.

>>714739774
Refund Crystar, trust me on this, its shit. The graphics are fine. The voice acting is fine. The music is good. The story is good. The gameplay? Holy shit its bad. I could not stomache the gameplay. It is that fucking awful. I tried, I really did.

are there any good old game series that are super cheap? for example i just bought all the old x com games for like 2 bucks total

>>714732438
late reply, renewal is a remake of the first game so you can pick it up too if you care about the story

>>714740015
>>714740569
Perfect. Thanks

>>714739774
>crystar
trust >>714740850 the gameplay is really awful and will make you regret it because you won't see much of it until you're past the refund point

>>714740850
Oh Anon it cant be that bad....

how's rise of the ronin?

>>714738159
>>714738382
I'd recommend G-String if you liked Peripeteia. Mechanically it's literally reskinned Half-Life 2 weapons and enemies with fewer combat encounters, but the environments are something I can best describe as a more linear Peripeteia that still gives zero fucks about whether the player gets lost or not. It's a game you play to wander through hours and hours of the best dilapidated buildings you've ever seen in a video game while having the occasional firefight, and which is so oddly-paced that somehow the bits which feel like a slog work in its favor and make the whole really feel like the vast journey through a sprawling, continent-spanning city it wants to be.

>>714741157
Fun

>>714740850
How bad? I can handle musou-tier slop.

>>714739001
For Isaac Afterbirth and Afterbirth+ are kind of awkward points in the DLC progression. They kinda fuck with the balance of the base game that isn't fixed until Repentance and add Greed mode which a lot of people dislike.
If you've played a lot of the game then I'd get all of the DLC, otherwise I wouldn't get just Afterbirth.

>>714741049
This is "don't watch an anime called boku" level of trust I'm calling on here. It is that bad.

https://youtu.be/ghM6qtOnI5M?si=mhqaYn6Nfm_rxqqr&t=1866

There's a random gameplay segment.

>>714741247
You want a decent Musou game?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3178350/WARRIORS_Abyss/

That's decent; it's a Musou Roguelike, which sounds like it shouldn't work but does. And they just did a patch for new characters. You can play as Ryza btw.

Should I?

>>714741392
Can I get a more elaborate response on warriors abyss? it's a bit expensive but it seems that you can play as ryu hayabusa

>>714741482
multiple endings for cute girls so sure, game is alright

>>714739917
Asukafag...

>>714741181
nta but wishlisted it, looks right up my alley

>>714741157

I did not care for it is much worse than nioh 2 dicking around with stealth assassinating people with random bandit camps I found fun for the first zone but couldn't be arsed to finish to finish it enemies have pretty generous amount of super armour + combat styles are pretty simplistic.

>>714737543
>somypomy makes this years ago to dab on pc
>half those games are now on pc

lol potry

>>714739867
Looked through my library quick, only two I can rec are
>Prime Mover
very firmly in zachtronics territory. Only difference is most zahctronics games have space as a big cosntraint but this one just lets you make (practically) infinite subspaces that you have to learn to treat as functions of inputs and outputs. There's another game called Infinite Turtles that's pretty similar and seemed pretty good but I only played the demo
>A=B
Pretty cool novelty puzzler about a minimalist programming language. I remember it gets like kind of tedious later on but it's very cheap so I think worth playing just the good parts
also here's something you can play in browser for free:
https://nandgame.com/

>>714739867
Human Resource Machine, 7 Billion Humans.

>>714741482
I have the LE version of that on Vita and enjoyed it. Just one fair warning on that:
If vore upsets you, don't play it. To advance the plot, girls must die. To get a lot of the girls, the earlier girls must die. Even the dog has to die. You get to hear their death screams and the actresses did a good job on it. It unsettled me, something no game sense or before has done.

>>714741519
Sure: So you pick a character to play as, say Ryu in this case, and later a difficulty level. Instead of collecting gear or traits as you'd do in a roguelike game, you collect people. As you complete a level you can then recruit a character/shop/do 2 other things not important here. Each character adds between 1-5 stats of which there are like 8; Lu Bu and Honda, for example, add 5 whereas Lu Bu's wife adds 1. The fun part comes in how they are identified as and what combos can come from that. Each one has a move they use. Each one also has conditions to buff their personal move as well as coniditons to apply a buff while they are deployed I forgot what its called but I'll call it a commander ability. I'll use two as examples:
Huang Zhong has rain of arrows. He needs a lot of Shu characters to upgrade his personal move -- rain of arrows. His commander ability increases the area of it or something and requires "great archers"
Sun Shang Xiang also has rain of arrows and is a great archer. If Huang Zhong has completed his commander ability and is deployed, she gets that effect too. Her personal upgrade requires Liu Bei and ups her damage. 'Member how she married him? That's why. Her commander ability reduces the cooldown of Flowers of War, of which she is one.
So most of the time what I found works well is to go with a group; Cao Cao wants all Wei, Ryza wants all Flowers of War, where as Oda wants all Oda clan, etc. But of course RNG will not let you do that....

>>714736070 (OP)
How did I do?

>>714742387
>no man's sky twice
>firewatch

>>714739001
Darkest Dungeon is all style no substance. It's a game that's very good to look at and very ass to play. You might very well end up enjoying it more by watching it on youtube because of how backwards the gamedesign is.

>>714742525
I don't know how Firewatch snuck into my cart.

I bought NMS twice because I have a gf.

>>714736319
personally i couldnt squeeze any fun out of scribblenauts

>>714740850
How can you say that when you haven't even beaten it. I'm going for that 100% eventually.

>>714737543

>>714742762
You must not be very creative.

>>714742637
Skill Issue

>>714736070 (OP)
is the Command and Conquer ultimate pack worth grabbing? Do these games even run well on windows 10? I know you can play them for free on cncnet or something but buying them feels right

i also want to get into civ but I hate how large the units are. why cant they be a little smaller to look less goofy

>>714742387
Why do you want to "play" One Man's Lie? Do you want a sandbox? Do you want sci-fi? NMS is just 3D Starbound and just as embarassing, except several times more expensive. I figure if you want a bad space game - why not save the money and just buy Starbound? Or is 2D a dealbreaker?

>>714742657
firewatch was such a red herring of a game i felt disappointed by it, no man's sky is alright but you should play a better game for co-op honestly
>>714739001
this anon >>714742637 is kind of right, but i think all the mods make it more enjoyable, so get darkest dungeon, but avoid the second one it sucks so much shit

this game is super short but really cheap, quite fun too.

>>714742868
>Skill Issue

>>714743003
that was a good kick and reminded me of dying light when you kick zombies into spikes

>>714742878
>Remaster

Yes

>Original

If you like collecting, physical copies are fucking cheap. If not, the steam version is abandonware, download it

>>714742265
>To advance the plot, girls must die. To get a lot of the girls, the earlier girls must die. Even the dog has to die. You get to hear their death screams and the actresses did a good job on it. It unsettled me, something no game sense or before has done.
That sounds like part of the appeal to me: by the sounds of it your actions actually have weight, and characters you like will die unless you play some kind of hyper-optimal route some ways down the line. I had a similar interest in Fuga: Melodies of Steel until I heard it was way too easy to coast through the game without feeding anyone to the soul cannon. If you're going to have a mechanic like that, you also need the game to be so tremendously difficult that avoiding said option altogether is a herculean task and sometimes impossible if you screw up enough.

Picked up the Crash bandicoot collection and Wavetale.
You obviously can't miss with Crash if you don't already have it but Wavetale is surprisingly fun for $3, since your just surfing from island to island completing whatever task it is and moving on. Decent little platformer.

>>714742894
Everyone's been raving about NMS for years. Starboard I've heard a lot of bad things about.

>>714743169
In my country, a physical copy of the PS4 version costs the same as the discounted steam version. Yes, the situation is that bad in this country

>>714739867
Haven't played it myself but there's this game called "Else Heart.Break()" that I always wanted to try out.

>>714742823
I took a bite out of it, realized it was shit and stopped.

>>714736070 (OP)
How's my cart? Anything I should drop? Kind of want to trim it a bit more, so I'm open to suggestion and recommendations..

I won't. I don't have money to buy shit. I'll just pirate what I want for now.

>>714743554
What is that currency...?

Anyways, Code Vein was shit. I don't reccomend it.

>>714736763
Maybe Kletka? It's multiplayer co-op, but my friends and I have had a lot of fun with it.

>>714743554
keep code vein, it's great

>>714743554
i would skip neptunia and witcher, pick up the other darksiders games, drop castlevania and emulate it if you want to save money since you aren't missing a lot besides some QoL stuff and i didn't care for monster sanctuary

Which of the WH3 dlc are worth buying? I'm afraid of downloading a virus or my account getting banned if I use creamapi

How good/bad is Yakuza Ishin?

>>714742762
Yeah, it's not as great as I reme.ber from my childhood. Most of the puzzles are pretty easy so far (really only one solution), but I enjoy the laid back mature and artstyle. And for $3, it's a no brainer.

>>714743107
The way he fucking flew was also spectacular. It's like there is different gravity in whatever slavic shitehole this was taken in.

>>714740850 don't listen to this anon; they got filtered hard

>>714739774
Crystar is actual kino
picrel is from someone who enjoys games

>>714743184
Normalfags love both games. You've heard lots of bad things about Starbound from us and not a whole lot of bad things about NMS because most of us jaded cunts LEARNED OUR LESSON with Starbound and steered clear of buying NMS and because paying THAT much just for a third dimension and a less stylized graphical style is absurd to us. We can see the same bullshit from a distance thoughever. NMS follows the same formula as Starbound of "delivering on a promise" by introducing shitty underbaked features that don't work with the rest of the game and everyone laps it up because their favorite internet daddy said the developers are doing what they promised now, guyze.

>>714744060
>>714744163
Retards

>>714739318
According to a bunch of the reviews, all you need to do is create an empty text file in the game's directory and title it "minigame.dat" and that removes the censorship.

This kind of thing is common with coomer games on Steam. 99% of the time, the fix is extremely easy and quick (even for computer illiterate types like me), and you just have to Google "[game] 18+ patch" or skim a few reviews to find it.

>>714739336
>dunno feeling cute
This is not instagram

>>714743825
None, the base game is more than enough, if you really need a specific lord you can always buy it later.

>>714744408
'fraid so

>>714744204
Garrison Archangel and Dolls Nest, but neither of them have good discounts (DN is a recent game and the last time GA got a discount was 2 years ago).

I bought Battle Brothers

>>714745248
ill buy when they overhaul the character models into real people and not chess pieces
which means never

>>714743660

How do I stop adding roguelikes into my basket

>>714745932
easy, just use the proper genre terminology and you'll realize you have no roguelikes in your basket

>>714745932
Start adding roguelikes that actually roguelikes and not zoomer "roguelikes"

>>714745932
you bought caves of qud right

>>714746129
isn't that game woke or something

>>714742762
I don't think I played much of Scribblenauts Unlimited at all. I have fond memories of playing the original game but even then it was extremely janky.

Costarican Colones.
So I heard, but I asked a few threads ago and received positive opinions, so I added it.
>>714743690
The Neptunia stuff is just some DLCs I was missing (and are cheap as hell), although, thinking about it, it probably won't be really worth it anyway.
I think I will hold back on the other Darksiders games until I try the first one, make sure I actually enjoy them first, you know.

Thanks for the recommendations.

>>714742265

>>714738465
>>714738592
They released a patch to undo the censorship after fan backlash. Alternatively, just create a text document in the main MS2 folder and rename it minigame.dat.

>>714746194
I have no idea but unless games are like girlboss purple haired nigress levels of woke I literally do not care. the devs can be commies or fascists, if the game is good i will play it.

you will succeed.

>>714742657
NMS is not very good but it is perfect gf-fuel girls love that game.

>>714736409
I'm not much of a FF guy, only been into XIV, but I had quite a bit of fun with the VII Remake. It overstayed its welcome only a little bit.
I would have been good to go into part 2 if I was playing it right now (but currently my plan is to wait until all three parts are out and just buy the whole package).

>>714746943
How's Atlyss? Seems like it could be fun.

Do you think Obenseuer counts?

>>714736070 (OP)
I can't even remember the last time I played a new game so this is probably not a hobby for me anymore it seems like my generation has learned all the wrong lessons from older vidya and teaches those mistakes to others. My wishlist cycles 3 dozen games that always seem appealing until they're playable. I'm only really interested in large scope immersive games anyways and nobody's capable of doing that. UI or UX must be a shitshow of a field because it ruins most games that pretend to be immersive. Time to stop pretending this will ever improve and add this time spent on vidya to doing anything else. Like sleeping for work! /blog

>>714744204
Take a look at MegaMek. Which is free and not on Steam. It's basically just the actual Batletech board game.

>>714749289
I did not remember asking

I got Noita, and I'm determined to complete it without reading a single thing on the wiki, or gaining any info beyond what I can figure out myself. I already deciphered the runic alphabet and have a decent idea about some things I can do. But really the experience of playing this game is just like bashing my head repeatedly into a wall.

I want my low IQ brain release endorphins by watching naked women
So any nsfw games with lots of costumes for customising?

I got freedom wars but decided to refund it due to it being capped at 60 fps and feeling like shit to actually play. very low effort vita port.

Unless you are legit autistic you should read the wiki after you beat the game once.

>I'm afraid of downloading a virus or my account getting banned if I use creamapi
creampie is literally just modding your game so you have access to the dlcs.
Valve can't ban you for literally modding your game

Atlyss IS fun but there's only a couple hours of content and nothing new has been added since release pretty much. I still got like a hundred hours just leveling different characters and hanging out in lobbies though. And there's a big update in the works, dev has posted progress recently.

>>714751060
I don't want to cheat, anon. I want to discover the content on my own instead of being signposted there. People said this game was obscure and difficult and esoteric. The victory would feel hollow otherwise. The giant floating rock in the ??? section has KNOWLEDGE THROUGH SUFFERING written on it. It doesn't have "LOOK UP THE WIKI LOL" written on it.

>>714751112

Any good Musou or this kind of hack'n'slash worth checking out?

If you have dudes you want to play get that DLC

Ignore the creamfags one day they will all get banned and I would advise against it

>>714751236
based, fuck meta scum they have ruined the joy of gaming

Thoughts?
Also taking any suggestions you guys may have

>>714751252
believe what what i've said is technically correct. valve can ban you only if you fuck with its own products (including steam's files. not game files). only devs can technically ban you for using cream
unless you're a massive negative IQ dog eating chinese retard who unlocks DLCs before they even release and leak them you should be fine

>>714751236
That's a warning bro. Don't cry if you can't handle it.

>>714751603
Manor Lords. Not sure about lots of content, but you can have some fun. There's a new overhaul update coming in soon. It's not turn based, but you can pause at any time.

>>714751493
>valve can ban you only if you fuck with its own products
Like the steamapi.dll?
You're not "modding your game", you're circumventing the DRM.
If Valve one day decides they don't like it anymore, you're screwed.
They can simply scan your folders for the dll and ban you for just having it there.

Nine Sols is already good. It is worth full price to be honest. Check out Northern Journey and maybe INFRA

oof Check SteamDB(dot)info for regional pricing disparity.
Example - https://steamdb(dot)info/sub/213423/
Activision priced Crash Bandicoot 26% more expensive than it should be.

>>714749227
>Do you think Obenseuer counts?
Yeah that does imo. It's a decent game too, but been in EA for a while now.

Was hoping Dread Delusion would be a little cheaper, but eh-- I can afford to support them a little more, I suppose. Moon is at the price it should've been to begin with. No idea what the hell makes them think the game is worth $20.

Excellent games.
The one problem with DD is how slow the animations are, but that's easily modded. Another caveat is how many fall victim to is coddling one A-team and avoiding the final dungeon. Myself included. Basically, you need at least 12 bodies to clear it. If you start exploring it as soon as you max out a squad, you are always progressing and gaining knowledge, otherwise you might need to grind for character xp.
Alan Wake's American Nightmare is more fun than the base game, get that bundle.

>>714754187
I enjoy reading literature, like my mother and my grandmother before her, I have a reading room with thousands of books
alternatively, I play videogames since the early 80s and I've been in the AAA industry the past 23 years

VNs are not videogames and they are not literature, they are the down syndrome babies of both

Deathtrap was recommended in one of these threads earlier and I've put about 20 hours into it at this point. Can wholeheartedly recommend. It's just a tower defense with a little bit of RPG to it. You've got a hero character that levels up. You gain skill points, which you use to pick your active abilities for your hot bar; research points, which you use to unlock and upgrade traps; and gold, which you use to buy gear. There's a certain amount of "builds" you can do (right now my sorceress is stacking +ice damage and ice-related traps), and there's a ton to do. There's a 13-map campaign, but beating it allows for four extra "tiers" of each of the 13 levels, which have the same layout but different monster paths, enemies, and trap configurations. Levels also have quests you can do for extra rewards, like beating it without upgrading any traps, or beating it without having your character deal any damage. It's also co-op. For under $2 it's an easy recommend if you like TDs.

>>714753506
Post your haul.

I'm looking for good management H-games, there don't seem to be many good ones. I have the brothel sims (Open at 9, Monster Girl Club Bifrost) but I was wondering if there were any other good ones.

I was looking at the futanari cafe game but there seem to be limited reviews of the gameplay aspect.

Any advice appreciated.

>>714754556
The funny thing about Deathtrap is that the Adventures of Van Helsing ARPGs always had weirdly elaborate tower defense sections, so at some point the devs just decided to spin it off and make the entire game that.

Reich was bundled w/ Adventure Club and I'm sad it doesn't have stuff in the points shop. I wasn't really feeling the discounts this sale.

>>714754691
There is a distinct lack of them, especially on steam, but then again, they usually require more work than a sliding puzzle or a rpg maker cg hunt.
Same with trainer games, which I think are management adjacent and the crown jewel of that genre is probably Jack O Ninetales

Anon, I dont think you know what literature is. Not all books are literature. Give us a couple of your favorite books so we can better decide. There are so many slop books that are more just as braindead as most VNs.

>reading room with thousands of books
How many have you read and how many were actually worth reading?

Anyone has some decent suggestions and recommendations for €10 and below?
I already have nearly 1K games, so most suggestions i usually find online are games i either already have, or ones i don't have cause im not interested in them, so it becomes hard to find something actually interesting which i don't have :/

If someone has multiple suggestions which together amount to €10 that's even better

>>714739001
Regional Pricing in Peruvian Sol have been really bad. Check on SteamDB to know which publishers are screwing with you (then check gg(dot)deals if they have prices better than your regional steam price).

For example - https://steamdb(dot)info/sub/213423/
Activision has made Crash Bandicoot is 88% more expensive than it should be.

>>714758540
That is not important. If it was you then you would remember

Northern Journey maybe. The art style is not as colorful or adcidicly, but the whole game is kind of a fever dream in a forest.

Grimrock 1 & 2, Vaporum and Vaporum Lockdown, Stranger of Sword City (better to get the bundle with Saviors of Sapphire Wings though it's more expensive), Elminage Original or Gothic, Dungeon Antiqua.

I was asking in previous threads for few times and among the games I ultimately picked was Cyber Knights Flashpoint, despite that nobody here actually played it and could voice opinions.

I played it for 5 hours now and it looks and plays quite interesting. There is a serious info dump, however, as now all mechanics are explained or obvious. It appears as XCUM clone (and it indeed have cover system, base building and 4-6 people squads) but at the same time it's not - units have 6 action points (can be temporary increased via buffs) with different costs for different actions so you may shoot few times with different weapons without moving or shoot and then move, lots of active skills, skilltrees for each class (with rather wide selection) plus option for dual classing later, individual rather than party based activation (with option for delay), crafting and some stuff I didn't discover yet. Game is stealth orientated, you can go full gunning down but you must do that quick as most missions have security AI that check situation each turn and adjust - single guard missing could be ignored, few will order others to investigate and extra cameras/motion sensors/etc to activate, pissed enough will spawn wave after wave of enemy reinforcements. Security is also "dumb" as in - if you kill a guard, others will investigate where the guard should be rather than where you are at the moment, which is nice.

Overall seems like good game, rather unknown. Would recommend with bigger discount but game just went out of EA. Same developer as Templar Battleforce, by the way.

I'm craving for a particular set of game feels. Suggest me something for these?

>1. Investigative game with puzzles and good story. I want to be a detective and feel smart unraveling the plot. Scary and conspiracy types welcome.

>2. Surreal game with lots of unusual and impressive visuals. I want my mind to be blown. Something creative and thoughtful.

>3. FPS game that isn't just boring bullet sponge shooting. Peek mechanics and quick deaths are appreciated.

>4. A Metroidvania. Nothing too childish or poor graphics. I also dislike the overplayed gothic aesthetic.

>5. Horror game that isn't cheap scares. Basically the closest thing to Silent Hill on Steam.

>6. Tactics game with fleshed out characters and epic story. Light grinding is okay RNG is not. Job system would be great.

>7. Comfy game. Any genre as long as I can forget everything and feel like everything is all right.

>8. JRPG game. Exploring some kind of world with a bunch of interesting characters fighting a good fight.

>>714736070 (OP)
Are you gonna be the 10 millionth customer!?

...Oh god I fucking hate shilling. Just stop buying AAA slop and give this indie game a chance. There's a demo and you can do the whole buy and return thing too.

There was some awesome feedback recently, and I like to think Anon gave it.

Thinking of dropping one of these for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk

Anyone played through this series?

>>714760523
For 1, I assume you've played Obra Dinn and the two Golden Idol games (although they don't have puzzles). You could try the Painscreek Killings. I've heard good things about The Roottrees are Dead and Detective Grimoire but I haven't tried either of them yet personally. Sherlock Holmes Chapter One isn't bad, although it basically doesn't let you progress without finding every piece of evidence and some of the choices you can make feel like intentionally vague 50/50s. I don't regret having played it, but I also can't confidently recommend it to anyone either. There's Murders on the Yangtze River but it's more of a Phoenix Wright clone than a real detective game.

For 2, Superliminal and Antichamber come to mind.

Anything that I should add/remove?

>>714760864

I can vouch for astlibra being awesome and baldr being fun, shiroganasu is really great as well especially extra episode
Gurumin is good but not for everyone - gameplay is particular

>>714760775
TLJ is considered a ye olde point'n'click classic, with all the pitfalls it brings like extremely obtuse puzzles. The second game Dreamfall is much more modernized and more akin to a proto-Telltale game as far as I remember. Never played the last game since it only released after years of development hell and by that point I had lost interest, but as far as I've heard it's the worst one of the bunch, and it's also the time when the series writer (Ragnar Tornquist, also known for the later ludocinematic masterpiece Dustborn) also started going insane with identity politics.

The first game works as a standalone, so just get that if you're interested and later decide if you want to check out the rest.

That's all I bought this year and it's enough for me. Unless something really good and really cheap shows up.

>>714763394
Puzzle games are good for that. The Steam version of Piczle Cross has over 1000 puzzles and is on sale for a buck atm. You'll probably want to mute it though, soundtrack is monotonous and vapid

>>714763394
I like half-sword. Duels take up to a minute.

>>714763394
nu Hitman is good, dont do the missions just run around killing as many people as possible without setting off an alarm. Great way to kill 20 minutes and let off some stress.

Maybe a session of a vampire survivors clone?
Some arcadey racing game?

I don't have a basket pic but I got Severance: Blade of Darkness and Crow Country.

>>714766454
They're all pretty similar in scope. I liked the garden one the best because it's new early game areas which is the part that gets most repetitive. I'd wait until you finish the main game a couple times before getting any dlc though

>>714766410
Drop Clair Obscur if you aren't planning to play it anytime soon. Should get you better discount in few months.
Dunno about Eternal Strands or Fight Knight. Pacific Drive should be cheaper on 3rd party sites.
For AC7, don't forget to grab Season Pass - DLC missions are some of the best parts of the game.

>>714767119
how does one become this obsessed?

>>714760443
Thanks for reminding me to play Templar Battleforce. Literally the exact same game as Space Hulk Ascension, which was great

>>714767360
Good call on AC7, I'll grab the season pass and grab Pacific Drive on a 3rd party.

I remember using on steam a slider that would filter by discounts but I can't find it again, can somebody point me to it?

Which ZACHTRONICS game to try if I don't know coding?

>>714768337
Press the search button

>>714736171
Good riddance. Astroturfed bullshit for annoying girls.

>>714768396
that's by price or a checkbox - I remeber using a slider that would filter by exact % of discount

Haven't had time to play a lot of vidya in the last few months so my cart is a bit pricey: for an investigative/mistery game should I go for Golden Idol or Outer Wilds? Both together are a bit too pricey, I can wait for a discount for one or the other. I was eying Sofia in Exchange for Lies too, but that one doesn't look worth the 30 bucks they are asking now.

>>714768454
Shit, you are right. My bad, I misunderstood. You might have to use SteamDB

>>714768454
just use steamdb, you can also filter by all time low, 2year, matching low discounts and other shit

>>714768559
And also set a certain discount you are looking for

>>714761085
Enjoy waiting years for the SC remake.

>>714768343
>Which ZACHTRONICS game to try
Any.
>if I don't know coding
You'll learn.
The most noob-friendly one is Opus Magnum. And maybe Infinifactory.

>>714766410
Drop fight knight. Its a game with far too much fighting for for how basic the combat is. Your moveset barely changes. It gets boring incredibly fast.

Drop Claire, that just came out and its in gamepass.

Drop Sifu; see Fight Knight. Its moveset is so small it forces you to unlock every move like 3-5 times to actually get them to stay unlocked, blatant padding.

Drop BG3. Its on a shit sale, see the "combat bad too much combat" complaint again and pretty much every aspect of it is overhyped; the romance is just everyone falling into love or lust with you within a day of meeting, the choices don't change 90% of the game and the version of DnD it uses is so basic with such boring growth that people hype up pushing people off ledges over the actual classes.

And Drop Eternal strands which is or was on gamepass and isn't very good. You start the game with a gravity spell that stunlocks every enemy but bosses, but fighting bosses is the only way to get new moves... which you don't need if you don't fight bosses. Extremely poorly thought out.

>>714765582
Drop fight knight, steel rising, buy less cheap games you aren't going to play and get something you actually want.

>>714762942
None. Its a legitimately terrible game. Don't fall for the waifus. I tried multiple times to force myself to like it as a large fan of the genre and its worse than most openbor games. Its impressivly bad.

He used to have a site listing all of these and his thoughts on them but it appears to be dead.
Just sort by popular to get his actual main recomendations, which can be fairly obscure, but bear in mind his idea of necromancy is "the pets do all the work"

Personal suggestion,
DCSS 0.15 so you can be deathknight, or just play necromancer itself
Tome4

>>714769112
I will just say I disagree with this anon about Fight Knight. I enjoyed it and will recommend it

>>714765582
Drop the milk games

Recommend me good fantasy game.

any good srpgs? just played tactics ogre reborn.

>>714748994
>>714751167
I'd say Atlyss is not fun personally. It has no content, no balance, no variety, nothing to do and no meaningful punishment for death, meaning nothing matters at all.
Unless you plan to ERP its just not a good game on any level.

>>714743554
>>714743660
This. Enemies just ignore hitstun at will, making the combat unfun, in a game that's entirely combat. Its map design is bad. The core concept of edgy vampires having to live in a post-apokalyptic world doesn't matter since everyone is happy and bubbly and immortal.
It just feels like any other generic anime game.

>>714742823
This is retarded logic.
Its like the people in DMC threads who seethe people don't like X part of the game, so they demand you stop what you're doing, open the game and screenshot S ranks, as if people who don't like the fucking game are doing that and not uninstalling it.
If a game is shit I'm not playing it, obviously.

>>714742265

>>714770923
genshin impact

My haul for this summer. I'm going to shill Astlibra. I already put in over 20 hours after getting it just a few days ago. The gameplay is tight and the story is kino.

>>714769668
>no content, nothing to do
This is verifiably wrong. Sure, it's lacking in content, but there's enough of it for its price. Especially given that the content is effectively tripled by having three classes to level.
Plus hanging out in lobbies IS fun (and not just for ERPing) and shouldn't be looked down upon. Questing with a full party is nice too.
>no balance, no variety
The classes are varied enough to feel distinct when playing, the bosses and even generic mobs in the two dungeons also have enough differences.
>no meaningful punishment for death, meaning nothing matters at all.
Sorry, but this is just retarded. For the kind of game that it is, losing the time to run back from the spawn is punishment enough. Though it should be said that the current final gauntlet in the game restarts completely if you die.
Like sure, Atlyss is blatantly unfinished, and I get that it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's not nearly as bad as you make it out to be.

How's this look?

>>714771319
What are those hidden games, anon?

>>714762404
What? I'm >>714760791 and the reason I suggested Chapter One over Crimes and Punishment despite the latter being frequently lauded as best in the series is because Crimes and Punishments is the most hand-holdy paint by numbers detective game I've ever played. It's basically a VN like Phoenix Wright and Yangtze river. It's fine for what it is, and great for its price point, but I have never played a detective or puzzle game which holds your hand to any greater degree than does Crimes and Punishments. Chapter One is egregious for its vagueness, so I can understand the preference, but to suggest Crimes and Punishments doesn't hold your hand just seems insane to me.

>>714760523
But oh yeah I forgot to mention Hypnospace Outlaw. You should definitely check that out for investigative games.

>>714771505
Out of those I only played Vanquish and Robocop, both were pretty good.

>>714771505
Solid. Check PS2 faces mod for FFX. They must look better.

I bought so many games. And yet, it feels like I still miss something.

>>714771505
FF's PC ports are usually plagued with issues, check PCGwiki if you haven't.

>>714771319
what are you ashamed of?

>>714771736
Thanks, I'd gotten so used to things just working it hadn't even occurred to me.

>>714771567
>>714771806
Oh those are games that either I claimed for free or didn't get during this summer sale. I forgot to black out the last game on that list there, Nova Lands. Nothing to be ashamed of. If you really must know, here are the missing games:

Ampersat (claimed for free)
Borderlands 2 (claimed for free)
Distant Worlds 2 (Forget how I got this - didn't buy)
Diplomacy Is Not an Option (Bundle)

>>714751982
I don't remember running into any fight that was all that hard.

>>714771705
It's her

>>714744247
Thank you for speaking truth about No Man's Sky. That game is dogshit and always will be.

Has anyone played Wizordum? The demo is pretty cool but I'm afraid that the game can become very boring in the later parts.

>>714770923
i wish there was a game like wow but not wow
kind of like classic wow but even moreso how you would feel having never played wow maybe you grew up reading the strategy guide and only ever dreaming about the game being talked bout, then finally getting to play and once you're max level, going to those old zones with no one in them and finding (even for the time) obscure quests like in the alterac mountains
a big mmo or rpg with cool loot and a feeling of actual lost history
maybe i should try everquest but man it just doesnt look that great, so many of those locations are just grainy pngs folded into ugly boxes that resemble rooms and the characters stand in that goofy stilted pose. early wow hit the right spot of looking kind of old but still detailed
it also just seems like throwing a ton of time into a pit i dont want to toss right now

>>714762848
WASTED

>>714770964
I liked it. I used to kinda know the dev and had played his early demos, so I knew what to expect going in. It has a few themes but then anything beyond that is just whatever the dev felt like and could find footage of. It's bizarre and just barely avoids being absurd, but most of the gameplay is snooping around to get all the different endings to what is essentially a series of CYOA segments.
It clocked in at 3.7 hours to 100% it, so not a very long game if you're expecting that.

>nauticrawl was cool but I figured it would be harder
I figured the difficulty would be driving the machine and the world would be a simple test that you know how. No, turns out driving the machine is easy and that's just the entry conditions to play the dev's roguelite.
It was easy for me too solely because I had a perfect run, like 20 minutes long because it just kept giving me the next objective as soon as I went anywhere new.
It almost feels like I cheated, it was just too smooth. I never even learned how to use the cloak because I never needed it

I bought some games I had already pirated because I liked them.
Lobotomy Corp, Afterimage, and Killer Frequency. I also got a game called "Fear The Spotlight" which was bundled with KF because I enjoy horror games and Dead End Drive because it was a dollar.

Can you show which strategic/tactical games you bought this time?

Avowed

I know its goyslop but being able to play a rpg like a fps is fun as fuck, especially double pistoling enemies down who run at you with swords. I hope future rpgs put similar work into their combat systems and not just attack/block

>>714771319
>Astlibra
>gameplay is tight
>story is kino
This is just sad honestly.

>>714770162
This is really not what I expected when you said xcom.

>>714772309
I will check it out. It looked abit like the Lila game, but seemed more gorey for some reason

>It almost feels like I cheated, it was just too smooth
That is exactly the same feeling I had! Especially when trying to figure out where to go after the mission.

>>714772526
Did you not enjoy Astlibra? What are some other games you would recommend instead?

>>714763394
Tesla vs lovecraft
Nomad Survival
20 minutes till dawn
The braves (f2p)

>>714772854
>20 minutes till dawn
high tier recommendation

Green - buying
Yellow - on the verge of buying
Red - thinking about removing
I have Dragonfall already

>>714772632
It is somewhat bloody at times and there can be gore, but not to an overwhelming extent.
One chapter has some gore on the main path, another has it on one of the bad endings. Two more have people get harmed with one having blood but no gore and the other not even having blood

>>714772925
I hated the game and can't remember anything about it at the same time.

>>714766410
Don't cuck yourself out of a game you want to play right now because
>it might le go on a better sale later

>>714772989
turn sifu green

>>714772989
Shadowrun trilogy gets given out all the time by Steam/Epic/GoG i don't think you need to buy it if you can wait.

>>714772989
I don't think Gato Roboto was particularly good, but for $1.19 you might as well form your own opinion. It focused way too hard on one-off vehicles, the cat mech doesn't shine for very long

>>714772989
Get Sonic Mania - it's stellar
Get Magnolia - it's worse than Lilies but still good
Drop Wizordum - it's too bland and boring
Drop Shadowrun - Dragonfall is the only good one

>>714772989
>Sonic Mania
>on the verge of buying
If you just want to play a 2D Sonic game (instead of specifically Mania), you can scratch your "gotta go fast" itch with fangames like Fallen Star or Triple Trouble 16-bit.

>>714773158
I wish Sifu had demo. This is the only game in the list I can make my own opinion about by videos.
>>714773206
Okay.
>>714773347
Yeah, the game is cheap so why not.
>>714773474
Maybe I will remove Wizordum. The demo satisfied my fantasy itch but it feels like it's going to be very dull later. Maybe I should give 2nd chance to Dragon's Dogma 2.
>>714773698
I only played Adventures so I want to try more classic game. The game is pretty cheap so I'm going to get it anyway.

>>714772989
Sonic Mania is great even if I hate SEGA as a company. I would pirate it out of spite for them.
Sifu is great, fun and challenging combat.

>>714773792
Sifu is definitely a game you can figure out if you like during the 2 hour refund window. There won't be any dramatic changes in gameplay later on, you just get better.

>>714773792
>Maybe I should give 2nd chance to Dragon's Dogma 2
...nah. It really doesn't deserve it.

>>714773792
>Dragon's Dogma 2
don't!

>>714773792
Have you been grabbing the free stuff from Epic? They've given away Sifu a few times

>>714772989
Nine Sols is fantastic.
ESA is fun if you want something like La-Mulana lite.
If you liked Ender Lilies then you will also love Ender Magnolia.
I liked Shadowrun Dragonfall and Hongkong, though they're definitely much more mechanically simple compared to other WRPGs.

>>714768510
Outer Wilds, it's in a whole another tier. I did see a couple of anons struggling with thrust controls to the point of dropping the game, but I can't imagine it's that common of a problem.

>>714774152
>I did see a couple of anons struggling with thrust controls to the point of dropping the game
hahahahahahahahahaha

>>714773792
>I only played Adventures so I want to try more classic game
Mania is great but you should REALLY play at least 2 and 3&K, not only because they're great especially the latter, but also because Mania has references to them that will be lost to you otherwise
It's a game made by fans for fans

>>714774012
>>714774083
Shame because it was so close to become excelent fantasy game for me.

I've seen the rest drawn on twitter. It was quite vivid, let me tell you.

Any chill puzzle games? I got enough games that melt my brain, I want something to chillax
In that same vein, I recommend Ouros. You basically move and squish polygonal lines until they go through the numbers in the right order

>>714774251
Not him but I agree with your incredulous laughter. I've seen so many people say the flying is too hard in that game. Hell, even on /v/ I've seen it described as having simulator-tier controls
It is absolutely incomprehensible to me, you just aim at a planet and hold W until you're close

>>714775494
minesweeper as long as you don't explode

>>714775661
Already played that to death. And it's a good example, that game is pretty chill once you've worked out some patterns

>>714775723
Yea until it gives you a 50/50 where you can't get additional information

So what's exactly wrong with Chianed Echoes?

>>714775898
Nothing, it's a fine game

>>714772792
He's the OP of that other thread where he said he dropped it after 16 minutes lmao

>>714775723
Dragonsweeper is a fun spin on it, it had a few threads here. It's free on itch so technically not Steam sale related but who cares.

>>714775898
The story just kinda... Falls apart. At certain points it goes pants on head stupid, and not in an interesting or kino or fun way. The overdrive mechanic, while interesting at first, is both too limiting and too abusable. But all in all it is a fine game.
>>714775494
A Little the the Left is the first thing that comes to mind when I hear "chill puzzle game that won't melt my mind"
If you like Minesweeper, Hexcells or Tametsi might be up your alley. But those are pretty tough.

>>714775898
People say it's a cuck game because the princess in your party gets together with somebody other than the "main character"
He's not really the MC in my opinion and why it even matters that it's not him is a very lategame spoiler
Game's great

>>714774617

Darkwood is great. Antichamber is fine, but a bit forgettable.

post your top 3 games

GET THE OG DEAD SPACE

I am convinced this is a bait cart, but I will bite.
Gloomwood is early access so remove.
Darkwood is good from what I have read
Blood West is cool, but can get a bit repetitive.
Killer Frequency is decent, but a bit too handholdy for me.
Northern Journey is fucking great
Antichamber good. Still think about it once in a while, but I would not play through it again.
Firewatch is decent, but it is purely a walking sim. It might trick you into thinking you have choice and freedom, but it just a mirage. An okay game with a cool look.
Dread Deluison and Lunacid should have a higher discount
Felvidek seems cool, but I personally waited until next sale

It is the same guy

Northern Journey is good

Do you play every game that's released on Steam? There's about 50 each day
Oh you don't? So you somehow dismiss almost all of them without "forumating" your own opinion?

Thanks for conceding that you can find out whether games are worth playing just by watching gameplay videos.

Definitely not rift wizard 2

Not for every game, really. There are games that look fun but suck to play. There are also games you think you wouldn't get too interested in but somehow get stuck playing for dozens of hours.

Did you play the first FFXIII? XIII-2 and LR are direct sequels and their stories are pure nonsense if you didn't play the first one.

>>714784143
