    To be honest I have plenty of games in my backlog to play. Buuuut if there are any really good deals on Tunic, Pizza Tower, Tetris Effect or Cult of the Lamb I maybe consider them.

    I should probably reduce my backlog first though…

      Got cult of the lamb in the last sale. Was really fun and ran well. A bit repetitive with managing the cult in my opinion. But there is an option to stop time while you are on crusade (and cooking without minigane. With that it was worth it :)

        I heard there was a big update a couple of months ago - did that change much?

          I only played after the upgrade. AFAIK added post game content and the time stop option.

      Wait what? You have to play your games first before you can buy more? Well, fuck.

        I’ve never tried the Watch Dogs games - what do you think of Legion?

          I’d say get WD2 over Legion. It’s the best one out of the three.

          While Legion has some interesting mechanics, it kinda feels half-baked. Didn’t grip me as well as WD2 did. Unless you want a snarky British digital assistant talking to you (and I mean that endearingly), then absolutely get Legion.

            Thanks! Have you tried WD2 on Steam Deck? I’ve just had a look at the ProtonDB page and there seem to be some issues (crashing due to a memory leak?)

              Not unfortunately! I have it directly from UbiSoft and I haven’t got that properly set up yet.

          As someone who doesn’t play a lot of AAA games, it’s legitimately gripping. Enough that I bought it on both PS5 and PC/Deck. Granted it was on sale both times.

      How do you choose games to play? I got the deck with the sale so I’ve no idea how it plays.

      Heard nothing but good things but what games are viable? That sort of thing
