Caves of Qud has a small discount. I’ve been playing it a lot lately on the Steam Deck.
Kenshi is back on sale for 12$. It’s a special kind of special, but someone out there might connect with it. Lots of yt videos to get a feel for gameplay.
This is one of those games that I love the description, love the sales pitches, streamers do a good job of promoting it. In paper I should love this game, but it just doesn’t gel with me. There’s something about video games that just cannot be conveyed through video or text.
Elite Is a space flight economics simulator.
Fly around buy here sell there look at stuff for fun and get into battles
Great game but you will want a hotas set up if you really get into it
I keep trying to get into Elite but it never clicks for me. I was flying around earlier trying to dock into a station but everyone was refusing me so I closed the game. I’ll probably look up a new players guide before giving it another attempt later.
Was it Elite Dangerous? Stations grant docking clearance if you’re within range when you request it; I think it’s about 7500 meters. Check out the in-game the tutorials. One of them teaches this.
Unfortunately it was due to being “friends only.” Player fleet I guess? I just couldn’t figure out how to filter them out before I got there and kept coming across them.
That range one caught me out once but I figured that one out since it tells you to come closer. I’m going to take that tutorial suggestion though. Cheers!
Ah… Yes, it was most likely a fleet carrier, then. Those are owned by players, and not always open to the public.
Enter the gungeon is like 1.50
If you are the simmy type or like space, Elite Dangerous is insanely good, but has a learning curve up front. It’s the only game I’ve put over 1,100 hours in and still haven’t explored everything.
Subnautica is another game I can highly recommend.
If you wanna play games with friends (Elite is also MP), The Forest is a great game to bond over.
Black mesa is another banger.
How does Elite Dangerous compared to starfield? I’m 20 hours into starfield but finding it quite fun.
Starfield has a focus on running around with your legs (or wheels), while ED is more about flying around with your spaceship (or wheels).
I have 1000 hours in Elite and it’s nowhere near as on rails or limited. It’s set in a full scale Milky Way where you can pick up missions from a station’s bulletin board, hunt pirates, or just pick a direction and jump to make discoveries, spending months alone scanning systems. The game has well developed lore that regularly updates through an in game feed, but it’s mostly background fluff unless you want to strengthen your faction or if there’s a major community event. It’s also a good time to jump in since new ships have been added and the galaxy is rebuilding after the last war event.

Here’s what I picked up during the Steam Spring Sale:
DOOM - $1.99 (90% off) Stray - $18.99 (40% off) Undertale - $0.99 (90% off) Celeste - $4.99 (75% off) Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - $4.99 (90% off) Red Dead Redemption 2 - $14.99 (75% off) NieR: Automata - $15.99 (60% off) Hades - $9.99 (60% off) Devil May Cry 5 - $19.79 (67% off)That’s…weird. When I checked the price yesterday Fallen Order was 18.99? Did they do a deeper discount?
Probably different price regions.
Lingo ($6.99/$9.99) is an incredible exploration and word puzzle game. It also has a few excellent custom maps such as Duolingo and Liduongo.
A sequel (Lingo 2 $9.99) just released and is also excellent. It changes how puzzle rules are presented, making them playable in either order. It’s a more polished experience though, so playing the first game after would probably feel like a step backward.
Borderlands 3, if you somehow missed it, for under £5 is just a good value.
Mass Effect legendary edition (all 3 games + all DLCs) is on for 6 Euro.
That’s a great deal IMO
On the third game myself, I can’t believe I didn’t play these sooner. I understand the hype this series generated now.
They may not have lived up to the hype when initially released, which was understandable as there were a lot of promises that weren’t keeps, but they are undoubtedly still absolutely amazing games.
Ori & the Will of the Whisps is an incredible story, on sale for pretty cheap right now!
Noita is currently 60% off and is hands down the best game I have ever played (kind of). It is ridiculously brutal and you will die very often but you have the potential to get ludicrously powerful as well. The game will cheese you so don’t be afraid to cheese it back. In has so much content that beating the final boss for the first time is considered beating the tutorial.
Also if the some aspects are too bullshit for you there is a variety of mods to fix these, and there is absolutely no shame in using them.
Just a reminder that while we all love Steam, they run an underage gambling ring in the form of CS skins, which they refuse to address.
Talos Principle is $5
Talos Principle 2 is $15
Highly recommend both games!
I’m making myself finish Fell Seal before I start it, but I picked up Triangle Strategy at what gg.deals says is the record low price. As an FFT fanboy, it looks great (and so is Fell Seal for that matter).
I picked up civilization VI (for my PC), hades and outer wilds for my deck.
