I was looking at getting some roguelikes / lites (already have ToME, CoQ), unfortunately Cataclysm DDA is not on sale.

Krone Hotel at 90% off looks like a decent choice too. Then there’s Jupiter Hell, which I recently stumbled upon and looks great too.

I’d also like to get some of the FF games, though I’ve played VI, VII, IX and a bit of XII, it would be nice to revisit some of the older ones I haven’t played almost since the PSX era.

ATS and ETS are such chill games. Nothing but endless roads and your foot on the pedal.

Definitely, when I opened ETS2 I would forget about time and play it for hours; ATS right now is 75% off so it's definitely a good time for me to try it

ATS and ETS are pretty much on sale for $5 during every sales event.

That's not meant to be dismissive though, they are great games, a few years old, and definitely a great value. DLC can be a bit more expensive, but the base games allow for plenty of fun on their own.

However, the DLC does get discounted often - so there is that. They tend to keep the prices higher on the more recent DLCs and lower it substantially for the older DLCs - purchasing the older DLCs first is a good way to build them up.

The developers also listened to user input/complaints about the distance scale of ATS vs ETS2 when it came out and completely redid the content/game for free. I think they are on their 3rd revamp of California, and often rework or improve existing content.

Pretty cool developers IMO and I appreciate and support their business practices. The game is good with a controller, but way better with a wheel!

I appreciate the built in mod support, custom game settings (no speed enforcement! - thank you very much!), ability to quick save before passing at 90Mph on a blind mountain curve, custom music,etc. Fun and chill game!

Hmmm, good to know
