What is everyone getting this Steam sale? (self.steamdeck)

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.

Didn't get it on Steam but it is deck compatible (and on steam), The Outer Worlds. Nice no nonsense Fallout Stylus RPG, without the Bethesda jank

I very much enjoyed this game. I don't think it has a ton of replay value tho. It's a bit too on-the-rails.

The remastered version or the original? Might wanna refund if it's the former. Humble Choice (at July 4th) will contain at least the remastered version (the Space's Choice edition).

Got it from GOG so....

My bad, didn't read the part you didn't get it from Steam but some other place. Then I understand wanting to stick with the DRM-free version for sure. Have fun with it!

Honestly didn't know there was a difference. I got the DLC and the game individually since it was cheaper. Based on the comments I appeared to have made the better decision. (Though my poor laptop struggles to run it)

From what I read - there's a remastered version that includes the DLC which is prominently advertised since March this year (which is also the version coming to Humble Choice). The remaster apparently had huge performance issues, but those have been (recently) resolved after few patches. Seems like typical AAA "We'll fix it" behaviour, sadly.

Remarkably is that buying that remastered version doesn't provide a copy to the original (probably due to IP ownership lying with Obsidian/Microsoft than Private Division themselves).
