A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Thanks for reminding me that *left 4 dead 1 & 2 *were in sale for 90% and other old valve games... I bought them as soon as i can!

[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I didn't want to fill out the list with extra info, but L4D2 is both games in one engine.

[–] H8TTK@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I grabbed the XCOM2 bundle and Gears Tactics.

I played both years back when I was on console but playing the new Aliens Dark Decent game has me ready to dive into the genre again.

Weird West if you enjoy immersive sims.

This is my signal to buy Into the Breach and jump in.

I'm also giving into the Resident Evil series that's been on my wishlist for waaay too long... RE Remake, RE 0 Remake, RE 2, RE 3, RE 7.

Village and RE 4 will have to wait as the price hasn't dropped enough yet. >:D

Into the Breach might be the game I have the most hours played

Wow that's a great haul!! You have some incredible adventures ahead :)

[–] Grimlo9ic@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

You're telling me! Excited to get home, install them and see what all the great reviews are saying.

Risk of rain 2 if you're into FPV rouge likes (I love zombies and any wave shooter game really)

One of my favorite games of all time. The music is 10/10 epic. I'm trying to get 100% completion. Especially amazing with friends to just chill and slay. Mercenary is my go to character. Hard to learn, but rewarding.

Haven't played it yet, but I grabbed Super Chibi Knight for $1. The original was one of my favorite flash games back in the day so I'm going in blind to the sequel.

Thank you! Finally picked up FTL after absolutely loving the Jumplight Odyssey demo during NextFest. I need more space survival sim in my life

[–] wizzor@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for these, much appreciated!

[–] pakiyimo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That's a solid selection right there, mate!
