Have Indy on the go on the XBOX, but also returned to Foundation, which is still in early access but making good progress as a more informal town builder.
I ended up getting Metal Gear Rising: Revengence, Sonic Adventure 2, Prey, Daemon X Machina, and Dragon Age 2. I have no regrets in my eclectic sale impulses hahaha
Dragon Age 2 is a bit ooof. Excellent combat, but the story and especially the scenery… you revisit the same parts of town and the same dungeon over and over and over.
da 2’s gameplay is not the best for sure, i think even inquistion might have been a bit more fun to play, but in terms of the story, look i may have just been really high, but i have never cried actual tears like that twice, like the end and then the dlc, idk but i really felt connected to my hawke more than any other character except well, my city elf from origins, origins is def the best of the three hands down, but da:kirkwall had an excellent story that i understand why people didn’t like twist there, but it just felt so right for the story i played, i loved it
DA2 has a solid story and very well written companions. I can understand it is too different from the first game for the fans of DA:O. Full disclosure; I didn’t know there was a prior game and DA2 was my entry to the franchise and I love it to pieces.After playing DA:O, it made Hawke’s story even more meaningful to me, since Hawke was one of many refugees who just did everything in their power to keep their family alive and well. We played through seven years of that struggle. It’s a pretty special game to me.
Veilguard marked a new low in every game aspect of a DA game, so I now consider DA2 a masterpiece, considering it was developed in just 2 years. After the empty world of DA:I, I’ve come to realize, I’ll take reused assets with well written stories and characters any day.
DA:I companions were well written mostly, but there were so many of them and I guess I have a bandwidth of how many companions I’ll care about in a game and that’s not many (cue Iron Bull betrayal because I forgot to complete his companion quests)
Finally playing Battlefield 1 and Battlefront 1, cause $3 is a good price to wait for. Only for the single player. I don’t care about multi-player. Streamed from my PC to Steam Deck is great.
I haven’t bought anything. We’ve still got another week to go though, so I might pick up something. I’m a patient gamer so I’m still waiting for Cyberpunk and expansion to come down in price. Otherwise there isn’t a whole lot that interests me right now.
I’m mostly waiting on updates for a few games I already own: Balatro is getting a big update in the new year, Enshrouded, Against the Storm, and Timberborn. I should get back in to BG3 too. I bought it on release and put 20 hours in and then just… stopped playing.
I will vouch that even without the Phantom Liberty expansion Cyberpunk 2077 is fantastic. Phantom Liberty is awesome though, the story is intriguing and the new area is really well done. Everytime I visit Dogtown in that game I’m always like “damn this place is a fucking trash warzone,” the devs really nailed the vibes.
Anyways absolutely amazing game, and it’s half off it probably won’t go below half off for another year I’m guessing. Like you, I got into it after some major updates so I didn’t experience all the crap at release - to me the game is a masterpiece.
I still haven’t worked my way through the deals I got during last year’s sales, and despite that I bought another dozen games on GOG this black week. So I’m trying to stay away from the Steam winter sale this year lest my backlog becomes such a behemoth it gives me uncontrollable anxiety.
just pasted a screen snip so hopefully that worked. Not pictured: League of Legends which CS:GO only wishes it could be, Runescape (either of them) which is counted in months and Minecraft if it counted my hours would be 5 figures at least.
