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.

Oooh so retro

[–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 1 points 2 hours ago

I'm in great pain lol

[–] Alpha71@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

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

[–] Juvyn00b@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

Grabbed the mass effect series for under a fiver. Played for a few hours and realized I was not enjoying it at all.

[–] Nexy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 22 hours ago

Nothing. Everything its too expensive in argentina now

[–] Nyxicas@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

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 19 hours 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.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 20 hours ago

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.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 20 hours ago

In total, the only 2 games I've gotten that I know we're part of the sail were Sonic Origins (with DLC) and Sonic Mania (with DLC). Would be playing them more if I wasn't having to message Steam back and forth trying to get an issue with my deck fixed, though.

[–] aeki@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Finally got Tunic. I'm pretty happy 6 h in!

[–] Phunter@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Same. That and Pizza Tower.

[–] Polkira@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

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.

[–] TheV2@programming.dev 14 points 1 day ago

Nothing. It was a difficult choice, but it was a necessary sacrifice in favor of the games, collecting dust in my library :*-)

[–] nerdschleife@lemm.ee 45 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Wanted to play It Takes Two with my gf when it launched. Hoping to convince her now that she's my wife

[–] TheCannonball@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

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.

[–] BluuTato@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 days ago

Oh It Takes Two is a good one! Played it with my partner a while back and had a great time!

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.

[–] Takios@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 day ago

Actually nothing this time. I got back into Elite Dangerous hard and play it pretty much every minute of my gaming time currently.

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

Firewatch
Alice Madness Returns
Alan Awake
It Takes Two
Kingdom Two Crowns

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 20 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk. Never played either one, but I'm starting with Stardew

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago

I wish I could play Cyberpunk for the first time again. Enjoy! Did you see the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners? Would highly recommend.

[–] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Really really wanted to like Stardew, but oh my god, so much walking around! Could've really done with an ebike

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago

You can get a horse and there are lot's of QoL mods for the game

[–] kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Divinity 2: Original Sin, because I'm 30hrs into BG3 and it's really good

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] ampersandrew@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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.

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

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.

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.

[–] GaiusBaltar@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Both Talos Principle games are a treat. Really love the philosophy and story mixed in between the puzzles. Enjoy!

[–] smiletolerantly@awful.systems 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Noita!

Also the Dead Cells DLCs.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Noita is easily the best game released in few years, great buy!

I personally grabbed quite few beers

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

Outpost Infinity, Executive Assault and something that was cheap and on my wishlist for a long time, totalling BRL 89 (~15 dollars)

[–] cobysev@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Expeditions: A MudRunner Game
Fear Effect Sedna
Grim Dawn
Keep Taking and Nobody Explodes
RIDE 5
REKA
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
Old World
Atlas Fallen: Reign of Sand
Crime Boss: Rockay City
Moonstone Island
Inkulinati
Monster Prom 3: Monster Roadtrip
Venba

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.

Everspace for 99 Cents. :)

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 4 points 22 hours ago

An excellent choice, and the sequel is also great, although the gameplay is very different.

Firewatch

[–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I picked that up too and the first 5 minutes I was not prepared for.

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

I played it yesterday for the first time and i was having a mental crisis with those initial choices

[–] Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Some friends and I gift each other some games each year, and I got Cyberpunk. I'll wait for the new GPU releases before I play it though, since I want to check it out with path tracing.

Also, some Rogue-likes. The latest Vampire Survivors DLC, Bloodshed, and AK-xolotl.

[–] KingBoo@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Which rogue-likes?

[–] Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

The ones I mentioned directly afterward, Vampire Survivors DLC, Bloodshed, AK-xolotl.

I don’t use steam too much, but I did get Minishoot Adventures, and it’s excellent.

It’s like if Zelda was a bullet hell. The base difficulty isn’t too hard, but it’s challenging enough. And you get to explore and do dungeons. It’s really fun.

Dread Delusion and Lunacid. Also thinking of finally picking up Factorio

[–] HParker@programming.dev 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I always read someone talking about picking up Factorio like they are they are casually announcing they are starting experimenting with narcotics. Have fun! Make a plan to quit before it breaks up your family.
