Let's talk about Stream and buy mountains of games - Page 786 - Video Games

I'm gonna recommend Doki_Doki_Literature_Club. It's free.
Don't let the screenshots put you off and don't look up any spoilers.

Oh and you prolly shouldn't watch with any young children (no sex, but some disturbing scenes). It's a clever psychological mind****.

Okay, I played it to the credits. "WTF" is probably my honest reaction. It's original but I'm not sure it was worth the 4 hours I spent on it.

4/10

Yeah, I'm about 2 to 2.5 hours in. Getting a bit repetitive.

Smartest thing I did in the game was under setting was to crank the text speed to max

Not sure if this is the right thread, but...

Anyone play Football Manager 2018 yet? Released yesterday 11/10/2017.

Meh I know in terms of money/time spent it's a bargain, but I can't bring myself to splash out £40 on a game that is essentially 95% the exact same game each year.

People in the English Football thread may have given it a go.

Picked it up today. It's fun but it does get really hectic and stressful having to keep track of 7 people with flak guns, enemy planes, damages, course changes and objectives going on at the same time and in real time.

And then you have to keep up with both the exterior and the interior of the plane at once.

But it's probably just me getting old.

imo it hasn't aged well. They recently rebooted the franchise and it didn't go well. It's a straight port of a game from the 90's, so it's a point and click from back then. I enjoyed it but that was 20 years ago so lol.

Ah, memories of the days where you bought a game and it came in a box with a CD. I took a flier on both syberia I/II on the clearance rack for like 5 bucks.

Probably the only time I ever had a hit on that clearance rack.

I picked it up, mjiggy184 in game. So far I like it a lot despite not really understanding the strategy. I played 2 games and was an alchemist both times, survived once.

Played a lot this weekend, game is great though of course it depends on your competition and some classes are duds. Might make a thread about it to get more players though I’m not sure we want the POG crowd in it.

Crypt of the Necrodancer is only 2.99 right now. I don't know how much I'll play it or even enjoy it, but for 3 bucks I would pretty much add almost any game that wasn't absolutely garbage to my steam library.

I've had great 60 hours of fun with it. It's rather difficult. Stopped playing when I finally beaten the daily challenge.

Also steam introduced local currency in Poland and some of the games are much much cheaper. Not only the usual conversion was great (3.6 instead of regular 4.2-4.4) but I noticed that normal price for Factorio which is flat 20€ everywhere it's 50PLN here, which is 12€, wow!

Yeah saw it getting ripped on reddit for having a bunch of games that have already been in bundles, but I only have like 2-3 of those games and it looks like there’s a bunch of good ones so I’ll prob go for it.
