Three random games that have been on my wishlist:
Galactic Ruler
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2
Freeman: Guerrilla Warfare
Plus Days Gone from Fanatical since it was a bit cheaper. I've got more games than I have time to play but still having fun for not a lot of money.
So far:
Not on sale but also got BattleBit
Post Void and A Short Hike. Also thinking about buying either Terraria or Don't Starve Together for me and my friend, but not sure which one
My backlog was getting low (which is rare), so I've stocked up to last a while, or at least until the winter sale.
A backlog can get low? That sounds so bizarre 😅
planning on grabbing neon white and hades
Hades is in my top 3 of all time. Excellent game
Marvel's Midnight Suns Legenday Edition. I'm 30 hours in and LOVING it. I mean, I like XCOM, Marvel, Persona and deck-building games, so I feel like this was created for me.
It's a shame the game flopped though.
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:
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?
Finally, the Dark Souls games are on sale! I'll probably pick them up.
Probably nothing, there's no huge sales on anything I want.
Maybe Bugsnax as it's cheap though.
I bought CrossCode because I heard great things about it and I'm enjoying it so far. The movement and combat is sooo fun and the main character's expressions are pure gold
I bought slay the spire, i have only been able to go on 1 run which was very fun, now waiting for some peoper time off to play again.
I got Final Fantasy XII the Zodiac Age. Not sure when I'll play it but it was one of the first video games I ever played so it will be nostalgic to pick it back up.
I plan to grab Valheim and potentially Dave the Diver.
Thanks for the reminder! Wouldn't want to miss it.
I got Planet Zoo and I am in love and obsessed. I love the animal breeding and community trading features. I love that there is a genetics system.
And the building and customization and management are all very in depth and flexible. Amazing game, if you're into building a zoo and taking care of little virtual animals.
(Technically not summer sale because it went on sale June 20 but close enough)
Thanks. I am an eager beaver to get mine.
So far:
Been having a blast with Trombone Champ. It's so incredibly dumb, silly and hilarious. And apparently Max Tundra has delivered a couple of remixes for it, which was a nice surprise.
Assassins Creed Odyssey and Hot Wheels Unleashed, the major factor for me was steam deck/ proton compatability. Looking forward to trying out Assassins Creed as this will be the first one I play from this series besides a few hours of black flag.
Played a few hours of hot wheels and it brought back a lot of nostalgia I had for past hot wheels games, and overall a fairly satisfying high speed, good looking racing game.
I purchased persona 5 and bloodstained ritual of the night.
Bought Deathloop. I never was super excited about it, but it looks like it's worth 15EUR. Still thinking about Jedi Survivor, but I'm usually not spending that amount of money on games.
Lost Ruins, Ender Lilies, Halls of Torment
