I don’t want any gifts, I just wanted to say you’re an amazing person and this is a great initiative ♥️

RabbitMix, do games w Any good games I missed in the last 21 months?

I’m mostly an RPG/FPS person so that’s what I’ll mention.

We got a remaster of Oblivion that was excellent, The Outer Worlds 2 was a lot better than the last one, and we got Dragon Age: The Veilguard which Dragon Age fans didn’t like because it was more like Mass Effect and YouTube “personalities” didn’t like because there was an option to establish your player character is trans when establishing their backstory. As a Mass Effect fan I absolutely adored it though, so I’m playing through it again right now. STALKER 2 finally came out, and it didn’t have A-Life for some reason, but it does now… it’s also has mod support now too, even on console.

Oh! Speaking of games with mod support on console, we also got Arma Reforger on both PC and console, so that’s opened up mil-sims to a wider audience. and while we’re talking about military shooters, Black Ops 6 came out and it was terrible, and they just kept making it worse all year to the point where even the CoD fanboys didn’t even care when the beta for Black Ops 7 came around. Activision panicked and made a bunch of changes that the community had been begging for years for, but it was too late and when BO7 came out most people didn’t care. Especially since the campaign was Co-Op only and weird. Multiplayer is solid but nobody cares and ActiBlizz is in full panic mode. This whole situation wasn’t helped by the fact that Battlefield 6 had a beta that managed one of the top concurrent player counts on steam because it was so well received. The multiplayer of BF6 was well received on launch, but people complained that the maps are small (they are) but with the first season they released a BR called RedSec and it’s just okay, but it came with a couple new big maps and also every update to BF6 makes it worse in some way so now people are kinda souring on the game.

BenjiRenji,

How is there an Expedition 33-sized hole in your comment?

RabbitMix,

because I thought it was decent but everyone else seems to love it so I figured I’m clearly not the person to talk about it.

Check out Absolum on Steam. Game of the year for me :)

Weebdeluxe,

Thanks, I’ll have a look!

SteleTrovilo,

You want Absolum. It’s made by the same people who made SoR4, and it is excellent.

MilliaStrange,

Absolum made me beat em up pilled. I crave post game. I’m playing Code of Princess and Streets of Rage 4 now to cope.

Thanks for offering! Let’s see what you come up with!

I really enjoyed Hyper Light Drifter but not sure I would be into hardcore soulslikes. I do like roguelites though, I liked playing Wall word. Spelunky was also good.

— I got Trinity Fusion! Looks like something for me for sure! Thanks again!

I don’t know of any that came out this year (exception being cosmic invasion, which I’m sure you’re aware of).

The last few that I played were River City Girls, Scott Pilgrim, Streets of rage 4, and mother Russia bleeds.

Oh, and Shredder’s revenge, of course 😁

Weebdeluxe,

Know and played and loved all of those, but good thing you’ve listed them here. Never really finished Mother Russia Bleeds, so that might be worth another go. Thanks for reminding me.

viral.vegabond,

Nice! MRB is definitely worth a replay! I actually replayed it recently and beat it this time. Younger me was trying to play it on hard mode like a psychopath… Lol

Wow, thank you for such a generous offer and help making this community better.

I’ve got quite a backlog, so I’m good on games this year - but really thank you for doing this! It’s a fantastic idea.

apotheotic, (edited ) do gaming w Christmas / New Year Steam Game Giveaway

Cool idea, and thanks for setting this up!

I typically most enjoy emotional, narrative experiences. Think Heart of the Woods, To The Moon, In Stars and Time, etc

Edit: they gave me Mutazione which looks super compelling and to my interests - thanks stranger!

Woah, that is very different from all other giveaway approaches.

I’d like something to play with my 8 year old. We’ve had a lot of fun playing the Untitled Goose game, Pizza Possum, Moving out and Overcooked (the second one, the first was too difficult).

No worries if nothing fits the bill! Thanks!

Edit: thanks! Got Yellow Taxi goes Vroom. Not sure my kid will enjoy it but I play games for myself too, so I’ll definitelt check this one out. Looks bizarre!

If you like arcade twin-stick shoot-em-ups, Sektori is one of the best the genre has seen. Hard though: if one doesn’t know the genre, play Waves and Assault Android Cactus first.

This is awesome <3.

I like Rogue Lights and cozy Indi-games (esp. where you can hoard lots of cute animals).

I got Wall World. And it looks like a really fun game. You really made my day, OP! Thank you so much! <3

Wall world is quite nice, not a super deep long game but very enjoyable!

I’ve been playing for a few hours and had a lot of fun. Definitely worth a try for Rogue Light fans.

thesaddreamer, do gaming w Christmas / New Year Steam Game Giveaway

Thanks for doing this!

I like exploration games without a super difficult combat system. I also love puzzle games and farming sims!

Happy holidays!

thesaddreamer,

I got Mask of Mists, and it looks amazing! I’m excited to try it.

Maestro, do gaming w Christmas / New Year Steam Game Giveaway

Ohhh, this is great. Thanks for doing this! I love point & click adventures and puzzle/mystery games.

Maestro,

Thank you OP! I got Beyond the Edge if Owlsgard which looks awesome and right up my alley!

knokelmaat,

Yeah that one really felt like a perfect match!

knokelmaat, do gaming w Christmas / New Year Steam Game Giveaway

I’ve done a few, but must sleep now, I’ll continue tomorrow morning :)!

Rozz, (edited ) do gaming w Christmas / New Year Steam Game Giveaway

Thanks that’s really nice.

I like to play open world, strategy, cozy, exploration, problem solving, a lot of things.

What kind do you like playing?

Edit: I received Nova lands. It looks right up my alley, Thanks

knokelmaat,

As you can see in the amount of games and genres I hovered up last year(s), I am interested in a lot of stuff.

Mostly interesting, meaningful games which are not too long and have a good narrative or emotional impact. I also love a good puzzle game, as there the emotional impact comes from solving the puzzle and appreciating the design. But also big blockbuster experiences if they are well designed and have a captivating narrative. My favorite games I played this year are:

  • The Last of Us Part I
  • Monument Valley
  • God of War Ragnarok
  • The Case of the Golden Idol (waiting for a price dip on the sequel)
  • Thank Goodness You’re Here!
  • If Found…
  • Outlast
  • Platonic
  • Cocoon
  • The Walking Dead: The Final Season
