What games are you planning to buy or already bought?
Chloyster [she/her] ( @chloyster@beehaw.org ) English14•2 years agoOof my whole wishlist is practically on sale 😅
parlaptie ( @parlaptie@feddit.de ) English3•2 years agoLucky you. Half my wishlist is games that aren’t even out yet.
Kaldo ( @Kaldo@beehaw.org ) English10•2 years agoI shouldn’t buy anything because I don’t have time for it as it is, but I really want to get stuff ugh, i’m even tempted by the discounted steam deck! And so many new releases in just a few months as well.
Anyway, Chrono Trigger is 50% off, maybe it’s time I finally give it a try. P5 is only 40% off so still a pass for me. Maybe finally get onto the DSP hype to tide me over until that factorio expansion finally gets finished. Maybe get a strategy game, I’ve been torn between Age of Darkness and Diplomacy is not an option. So many choices…
somefool ( @somefool@beehaw.org ) English7•2 years agoChrono Trigger is a must-play. Stellar game. I don’t know how the PC port fares, though.
Kaldo ( @Kaldo@beehaw.org ) English5•2 years agoMy biggest worry is that I have trouble focusing on individual games for long lately and Chrono Trigger might be a bit too old fashioned to keep my attention. I keep hearing people gush about the story however, I hope it’s not just nostalgia
Kindajustlikewhat ( @Kindajustlikewhat@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoHonestly I played it for the first time last year and… It’s good but I don’t understand the hype? The story in 2022 didn’t blow my mind. Definitely fun and I still recommend though.
SevenSwell ( @SevenSwell@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoEven if you don’t like the story, the graphics, gameplay, and soundtrack are stellar even by today’s standards.
bob_lemon ( @bob_lemon@feddit.de ) English2•2 years agoThe port is alright. Although they did manage to completely screw up the touch controls, which is weird considering the PC version is a port of the mobile version
That shouldn’t affect most PC players though, but just in case someone thinks about playing it on a Surface like me.
Mysteriarch ☀️ ( @Mysteriarch@slrpnk.net ) English4•2 years agoThere’s a whole bunch of smaller (indie) games in my cart right now. I’ll have to check each of them out a bit better and see if they’ll run on Linux and probably throw half of them out.
I am curious about Dredge though.
artillect ( @artillect@kbin.social ) 3•2 years agoI’m thinking of getting Elden Ring, I played a bunch of it at a friend’s house on his xbox last week and now I’m hooked
VulcanDeathGrip ( @VulcanDeathGrip@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoDo it. Favorite game in years!
termus ( @termus@beehaw.org ) English3•2 years agoI have Marvel’s Avengers in my cart. Debating on spending the $5. I played it a while back during the free weekend. There is a fun game in there but the cosmetics and other monetization practices put me off spending a larger amount of money on it. It looks like since they stopped development they released a lot of those pay-walled skins for free and patched quite a bit. Willing to give it another shot.
Kaldo ( @Kaldo@beehaw.org ) English5•2 years agoKeep in mind that they stopped development completely and IIRC, it will be delisted from stores by the end of the year. I imagine existing players can continue playing it but it might be limited in some ways and stop working at some point? But for $5 you’ll probably get your money’s worth by then.
Kindajustlikewhat ( @Kindajustlikewhat@beehaw.org ) English2•2 years agoI’ve had persona 5 on my wishlist foreeeeeeever but even on sale it’s so expensive.
Pigeon ( @Lowbird@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoIt’s a loooooooong game, though. You get a lot for the price even so.
Flyinx ( @Flyinx@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoI’m really debating on Smalland. I absolutely adore Grounded, so I’m hoping I get similar wonder from this one lol.
If anyone has played both and has insight for me that would be appreciated.
xavier666 ( @xavier666@lemm.ee ) English1•2 years agoI think I’ll buy HL2:Part 1 and Part 2
besenwesen ( @besenwesen@discuss.tchncs.de ) English1•2 years agoI finally pulled the trigger on Prodeus and I like it so far.
closure1170 ( @closure1170@beehaw.org ) English1•2 years agoJust bought No Way Out, and Dark Souls 3 (50$ off it’s normal price of NEARLY 90 GODDAMN DOLLARS for the deluxe edition)
Ingrid ( @Ingrid_Skovgard@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English1•2 years agoAre there any good visual novel on sale? 👀
