So far only Blasphemous, but that'll probably change. My wishlist is huge, and nothing's ever stopped me from growing my backlog before, so why stop now?
I'm a huge fan of metroidvanias, I've played almost all of the heavy hitters in recent years: Hollow Knight, Dead Cells, Ori 1 & 2, Dust, Guacamelee, the list goes on. Blasphemous seemed right up my alley despite some positive reviews with heavy caveats. I'm mostly enjoying it but I really really hate all the insta-death pits. Nice that you don't drop all your currency on death but now I've gotta walk all the way back there, avoiding all the enemies and traps, and oop I've fallen in the same pit again and turned the game off. Besides that, the difficulty is somewhere between easy and challenging but fair. Recommended while cautioning patience.
I'm thinking about buying a few games to play on Steam Deck, probably 2 or 3 of that list:
- Yakuza: Like a Dragon
- Dark Souls 1
- SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays
- DJMax Respect V
- Digimon Survive
- Rivals of Aether
Halo infinite, hollow knight, dead cells, and the orange box. Already played dead cells on switch a bunch so I know I'll love it (though a couple new dlc's have released since I last played, yay!). As a fan of the metroid series I'm also super excited for hollow knight.
I fucking loved Hollow Knight. One of my absolute favorite games of the past several years. I hope you enjoy it!
Black Mesa. Been waiting to grab it before I play HL2
Just dropped a crisp fiver on Oblivion, figured 17 years of people telling me to play it was reason enough to give it a shot
It's one of the best games ever made. Especially the Thieves' Guild missions.
While I love Skyrim, I think most of the guild quest lines are much better in Oblivion, especially the thieves guild (as mentioned). I generally prefer to play with a leveling system mod that replaces the weird system they built, but it's a great game either way.
Nothing
Probably nothing, there's no huge sales on anything I want.
Maybe Bugsnax as it's cheap though.
Don't really see any must have deals (other than steam deck). Maybe Dark Souls III. 30 still seems kinda steep for such an old game, is it worth getting at that price?
It's a solid game (and I feel like it's the easiest one to get into for someone new out of the three), but for a few bucks more Elden Ring is stellar.
Just bought it, thanks!
Have fun! Protip: if things seem way too hard head SE across the big stone bridge on your mount riding past everything without stopping. Feel like that area is easier to get a grip on things then the actual starting area. 😁
I wanted to pick up the Washington and Oregon DLCs for American Truck Simulator, a game I almost never play but it always there waiting for me to pop back in for one run then uninstall lol.
Also picked up Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling Into Darkness (whew, that's a name alright) because I was just turned on to the show (which is awesome!) and wanted to play it, but full price seems like a total ripoff for such a jank niche game.
Now both are on my Deck for less then I spent at lunch yesterday, and I can get back to slowly poking at my backlog!
Pinned the post as long as the Summer Sale lasts. Handy overview for everyone to discuss it.
A steam deck. I'll probably get some games after payday.
Congrats, homie. I love mine. :3
Nothing. It's the same sale for the past 5 years. I've already got anything I wanted.
Mechwarrior 5! I've always liked the series, but this one fell off my radar with an Epic exclusive deal that also had some pretty big problems at launch. It looks like it's in a good place now, though, so I'm looking forward to exploring the coop with a friend.
I’m still on the fence for buying Hogwarts Legacy. 20% off is still more than €40..
Have a look on greenman gaming. It's 32% off. £33.99 in the UK.

I've been getting into Warhammer lately so picked up boltgun and battlefleet gothic armada 2. Both very fun actually and definitely recommend
So far I've picked up Cassette Beasts and Nier Replicant. The former is a monster tamer game which I really enjoyed. Mechanics were fun, and the world exploration was superb. You unlock abilities for movement kind of like BOTW/Hollow Knight.
Nier Replicant has hot androids
I got
High on Life
Ys IX Monstrum Nox
Stranger of Paradise FF Origin
Toukiden 2
Tales of Symphonia
DBZ Kakarot
Lost Ruins, Ender Lilies, Halls of Torment
I got Cloudbuilt, the Deus Ex series (minus the first title,) Disco Elysium, Furi, Halls of Torment, Killer7, Lego Indiana Jones, Serious Sam 3 and The Walking Dead Telltale game.
Total was under 60 bucks. That's about 11 titles for less than the price of a new game. Steam Sale memes really didn't sugarcoat it, this shit hits DIFFERENT.
Megaquarium, Big Pharma, Bus Simulator 21.
All of them are solid.
No games (so far) because I have enough of a backlog to play but went for a Steam Deck (512 GB version because I like anti-glare and don't want to upgrade it right away) and dock. I rarely feel like playing at my desk lately but enjoy playing on my Switch on the couch, so the deck should help me work thorugh my backlog.
Nothing. Partially because I already have too many games between PC and Switch, and partially because the sales are kinda shit since Valve stopped doing flash sales.
I got T.A.B , Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Doki Doki Literature Club
I resisted the temptation, as I don't have the time and space to play the 5 games I already own.
