The Steam winter sales are here, up to the 4rth of January.

What game did you enjoy playing and want to share with the community, and why?

It's like a mini (or a bit larger) review for the people in the community to discover your loved game, and get it for a smaller price. Also remember to share a link to the store page to help people find the game.

The game must be on sale currently and must not be a free to play game, or what would be point of this post.

The release date doesn't matter. Neither the sale amount. If you enjoyed the game, it should be shared.

You can put the game type/tags at the beginning of your comment if you wish so, it may help other people.

Please a single game per comment if you post a review.

I'll start in the comments.

How is the server population in GW2? I used to play that a lot and really enjoyed the WvW action too.

Seems very good. It's wvw reset night right now. There's a 16 person queue to get into the eternal battlegrounds map, and <10 on the other ones. Non reset nights the wvw maps are usually active with the occasional queue. I do a fair amount of wvw. The other night we had a wild ~40 v~40 v~40 fight in the garrison. Great stuff.

For PvE stuff, there's almost always people doing the meta events. I never had trouble getting a group for fractals or strikes. Raids I see sometimes in the LFG tool, but I only do them with a training guild I joined.

Also, with PvE they added megaservers a while ago so it doesn't matter what "server" you're on. For WvW, they're supposedly implementing guild-based matches instead, but that's been in the works for a while.

That's great to hear that everything is still going with a healthy population. WvW is definitely a ton of fun.

I remember one skirmish we had where we came upon an enemy "blob" by a small lumber mill (I think?) and they all jumped up and stacked on a tree stump. For what purpose, I'm not sure, but I like to think they thought they had the higher ground. We wiped them, of course.
