I suppose it depends on what a person considers a hidden gem because everyone's tastes are different. I'll list a few categories and at least 1-2 of my favorites in those categories that I've found on Steam and are currently on sale:

Exploration/Base-Building:

• Grounded
• Raft
• Rimworld
• Subnautica/Subnautica: Below Zero

Story based/Farming/Romance:

• My Time at Portia*
• My Time at Sandrock

Visual Novels:

• Basically anything made by PixelFade (Ace Academy, Ethereal Enigma, Crystalline). One of the few English-based VNs that are fully voiced in English and have a pretty decent plot/story. Interactive with different choices affecting different outcomes and even some minigames at least in EE.
• Nekop er Hush Hush. Ok, listen. I won't beat around the bush here. There IS an 18+ DLC for this but it's not necessary to enjoy the game. It honestly has a pretty interesting story/premise and I did get pretty heavily emotionally invested in the characters.

*Note that MTAP has been fraught with issues. Although these issues don't necessarily make the game unplayable, and it's still enjoyable, be aware that it is was Pathea's (the studio) first such attempt and as such they were still learning. Their second game Sandrock has solved a lot of the issues and it's not necessary to play the first one

2G1C, Tubgirl, Lemon Party. What a crazy time it was.

Furry porn?

Sponsorblock is the reason I'm confident that no matter what they try people can and will find ways to overcome it.

"What are companies thinking"

It turns out I actually have the ability to convert thoughts to text for any company CEO or Board Member. So allow me to post an excerpt of what I've found:

"moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneyiwishepsteinwerestillheremoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney"

NTA. For one thing, if she left "suddenly" with no explanation, your kids are old enough to see right through that. Telling them "things broke down" wouldn't explain why it would have been a very swift exit on her part unless something crazy happened. Second, allowing her to tell them herself was the smart thing to do because not only does it allow her to be the one to break it to them (and take responsibility), but it can't be said then that you were trying to pit them against her or anything by telling lies because the truth came straight from the horse's mouth. If she wishes that you hadn't made her tell them, then it's only because of sheer guilt that she has decided to try and project onto you as a form of defense. If she can't understand that her actions have consequences for others around her and not just herself (by saying that it's none of their business), then she probably wasn't a very fit person to be parenting them anyway. Parents are people, too. They can make mistakes. But not owning up to those mistakes or being able to have the empathy needed to see how it impacts others is not something you want to pass down to your children.

I actually started with an account on Fedia.io before coming here, but they're down like 90% of the time and I fear it might be too much for Jerry (operator of that instance) to keep up with, at least for now. But having an account on multiple servers that I can bounce between when such things happen has been nice.

War were declared

As soon as I read it I thought, "please don't let me be the only person who has a sick mind and is willing to comment it"

lmao the sheer amount of entitlement on him. Truly a leopardsatemyface moment. Imagine tying your entire identity to being an unpaid lacky for a website that doesn't give two fucks about you, to the point that when you're let go you go nuclear.

I'm active on here so I don't have to be, IRL!

Yeah I mean, it's all still going to be relevant (the Reddit stuff) at least until after the end of the month.
