I picked up Total War: WARHAMMER III and Pennon and Battle, both strategy games. I'm thinking of getting Baldur's Gate 3 as well. This should keep me busy for a while. My holiday plan is to stay home and game!
Covid.

I bought a few, but the one that got me was Microsoft flight simulator 2020. It looks amazing in VR.
Grabbed the mass effect series for under a fiver. Played for a few hours and realized I was not enjoying it at all.
Nothing. Everything its too expensive in argentina now
Exit the Gungeon (It's meh) Okami Axiom Verge Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R (That didn't work for me, refunded) Fight Knight (Might refund, it's not fun) New Super Lucky's Tale (2 in 1, remaster and original. Cool)
I misread that as enter the gungeon and got confused. But yeah exit the gungeon is a mobile game so it's mid to low tier.
I don't know whether I have the original or remaster, but I personally believe New Super Lucky's Tale is a pretty fun game.
In total, the only 2 games I've gotten that I know we're part of the sail were Sonic Origins (with DLC) and Sonic Mania (with DLC). Would be playing them more if I wasn't having to message Steam back and forth trying to get an issue with my deck fixed, though.
I bought Reka and Baldurs Gate 3, haven't played BG3 yet but Reka is fun! It's buggy so I'm holding off on playing more until it's a bit more stable but I'm excited. Been playing a bit of my backlog though before jumping into BG3.
Finally got Tunic. I'm pretty happy 6 h in!
Same. That and Pizza Tower.
Actually nothing this time. I got back into Elite Dangerous hard and play it pretty much every minute of my gaming time currently.
Tactical Breach Wizards. It's a nice little puzzle game with some dry humor that ive actually chuckled too a few times. Its a lot of fun so far.
- Firewatch
- Alice Madness Returns
- Alan Awake
- It Takes Two
- Kingdom Two Crowns
Nothing. It was a difficult choice, but it was a necessary sacrifice in favor of the games, collecting dust in my library :*-)
Outpost Infinity, Executive Assault and something that was cheap and on my wishlist for a long time, totalling BRL 89 (~15 dollars)
Wanted to play It Takes Two with my gf when it launched. Hoping to convince her now that she's my wife
Played it with my wife. We both agreed the gameplay is great but the story is awful. We disagreed that they should stay together in the end.
Oh It Takes Two is a good one! Played it with my partner a while back and had a great time!

Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk. Never played either one, but I'm starting with Stardew
I wish I could play Cyberpunk for the first time again. Enjoy! Did you see the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners? Would highly recommend.
Really really wanted to like Stardew, but oh my god, so much walking around! Could've really done with an ebike
You can get a horse and there are lot's of QoL mods for the game
The talos principle 1 & 2. Playing through 1 now, and it's excellent. Some of the puzzles are complex, but most can be solved in 5-10 minutes and give a nice "ah-ha!" moment. It reminds me of portal 2, but with a heavier and more ambiguous story about the nature of life and consciousness. Highly recommended.
Also been playing some Dome keeper and Peglin. Both also excellent in their own ways.
Both Talos Principle games are a treat. Really love the philosophy and story mixed in between the puzzles. Enjoy!
Divinity 2: Original Sin, because I'm 30hrs into BG3 and it's really good
D:OS2 is one of the very few games that made me cry with the emotions I had for my characters. I hope you like it, great game.
The beginning of D:OS2 felt like a cheat code to get more BG3 after I'd already finished BG3, but as time went on, I found that everything from RPG systems to pacing of combat/non-combat is leagues better in BG3, to say nothing of the production value that's obviously better in BG3. Still a good game, but the improvement between each of their RPGs is immense.
I have to say I very much prefer the combat system in OS as it feels much more natural and less restrictive than the DnD combat in BG3. Of course the latter has far more content, but I’m looking forward to Larian’s next game where they can finally go wild again and do things they want exactly the way they want.

Noita!
Also the Dead Cells DLCs.
Noita is easily the best game released in few years, great buy!
I personally grabbed quite few beers
I recently learned about "From the depths" because of Martincintopants Video about it. Yesterday evening I saw, that it was 50% off and bought it immediately.
Spiritfarer: Farewell edition, Celeste and Stardew valley.
Some friends and I gift each other some games each year, and I got Cyberpunk. I'll wait for the new GPU releases before I play it though, since I want to check it out with path tracing.
Also, some Rogue-likes. The latest Vampire Survivors DLC, Bloodshed, and AK-xolotl.
Which rogue-likes?
The ones I mentioned directly afterward, Vampire Survivors DLC, Bloodshed, AK-xolotl.

And I gifted Freedom Planet 2 to a friend.
The Winter Sale isn't over until January 2nd, so I might buy some more games before it ends. Problem is, I own most of the games on the Steam front page, so finding new and interesting games is getting difficult.

I don’t use steam too much, but I did get Minishoot Adventures, and it’s excellent.
It’s like if Zelda was a bullet hell. The base difficulty isn’t too hard, but it’s challenging enough. And you get to explore and do dungeons. It’s really fun.

Firewatch
I picked that up too and the first 5 minutes I was not prepared for.
I played it yesterday for the first time and i was having a mental crisis with those initial choices
Dread Delusion and Lunacid. Also thinking of finally picking up Factorio
I always read someone talking about picking up Factorio like they are they are casually announcing they are starting experimenting with narcotics. Have fun! Make a plan to quit before it breaks up your family.

Everspace for 99 Cents. :)
An excellent choice, and the sequel is also great, although the gameplay is very different.
