I just got:

JoJo's All-Star Battle R, Strobophagia, Arkham Origins: Blackgate

I'm not really into fighting games, but I got pretty into the JoJo anime and played the demo for All-Star Battle R before and I really liked it, so I got the deluxe edition or whatever for $20.

Strobophagia popped up on my homepage one time and caught my eye cause I like EDM, and mixing it into a game about a rave with a horror twist seemed pretty cool.

I've heard rough things about Blackgate as it's a 3.5D side scrolling brawler, but I'm hoping it'll play similar to those Assassin's Creed Chronicles games, cause I really liked those when they came out. Also I just want to experience more of the Arkham story/universe. At some point I'd like to play Arkham Shadow as I watched a bit of gameplay and heard a lot of positive things about it.

These

  • DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT 15,99€
  • God of War 19,99€

Or

  • Star Wars Outlaws 34,99€

Or

  • Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition 38,62€

Outlaws isn't worth it tbh, I really enjoyed death stranding though great game

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

So... who's getting what?

[–] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 1 points 1 month ago

Fear & Hunger 1 & 2 for me among others. Stellar Blade not on sale though... I get it but... It's so expensive...

[–] ageek@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Little nightmares II looks good at $2.99

It's kind of funny, looks like my main sale purchases are going to be Netherworld Covenenat, which is still on it launch discount, and Bloodrush Undying Wish, which is inexplicably launching in the middle of the seasonal sale. There's also BlazBlue Entropy Effect's new character DLC, also on launch sale, so none of that is really seasonal sale stuff.

I'll pick a couple shmups to pick up, probably Divine Orders and Assault Shell 2, but those are both stingy sales. Only particular sale-sale items I'm looking at are Void Expanse finally putting their DLC back on sale after 2 1/2 years of nothing, and 30XX's character DLC finally getting its first sale, but those are minor even if holdouts.

Was actually rather hoping to pick up Relic Hunters Legend, after they finally put a demo up so I could see the game had more meat to it than it looked like, but annoyingly, they seem to have put the demo up right in the middle of the Feb NextFest, put the game on sale for only a few days, and then nothing since for anyone who saw the demo later, despite pushing release (from early access) back to Q3. Indie devs man, it's like they are just flailing around doing random things.

I guess I'll pick up Idun Frontline Survival (tower defense game where you move the towers around, not a horde survivor) instead, but was hoping to get some partner co-op going with Relic Hunters. I guess we'll try to get that from Synthetik 2 instead, since they finally got their next update out after like two years stalled early access.
