Both are great games, but I was too much of a brainlet to find some of the later stuff myself.

I was almost done with it last week, but I finished Baldur's Gate - Siege of Dragonspear DLC. It's terrible. The story is trash, especially the second half, and all characters, your party included, lose the ability to put two and two together. I haven't played BG2 and don't know if I ever will, but I can't imagine this DLC is adding anything to the overall story.

Then I played through Final Fantasy VII Remake again. I definitely thought the game was shorter, mainly because I forgot about all the terrible moments. I still like the game, but there are a bunch of bosses and sequences that are cancer, and the game would be better if they were removed completely or at least much shorter. Hopefully it doesn't take too much longer for Rebirth to make it to the PC.

Finally, I re-subbed to World of Warcraft for a month. For the 20th Anniversary, there's a huge 3-month event going on. It's running until early January, and you can get a bunch of old or removed stuff again. I'll just do some quests once or twice a week, so I can buy the stuff that I want.

Yes, that's what I meant. I didn't mean you could still buy them. Sorry, I probably should have clarified that in my first comment.

Is it? Steam does it all the time. Afaik they only completely remove games (meaning you they get removed from your account), when they break some TOS stuff.

As for Blizzard themselves (since this article is about Warcraft 1&2), they still offer downloads for old titles. I can just download Warcraft 3 or Diablo 2 right now, even though they're remastered, and the old versions not for sale anymore.

Good for GOG, but I don't think having games still available after they're delisted is special. It would have been news if this didn't happen.

Edit: I mean you can still download the games, if you've already bought them, not that you can still buy them.

Yeah, I knew it was released later and that at least the Steam Reviews are only mixed. Still, I didn't think it would be such a waste of time.

Baldur's Gate 3 coop, we're in Act 2. For some reason, my friend started a fight, inside the throne room at Moonrise Towers, while surrounded by 20 enemies, half HP and no spells. We died, and because he hadn't saved in an hour, we have to do some stuff again.

Then I finished the Solasta: Crown of the Magister - Palace of Ice DLC. It's definitely the weakest campaign for me (base game and two DLC). The final dungeon was also pretty disappointing, but I liked the very final decision you had to do.

Then I started the Baldur's Gate - Siege on Dragonspear DLC. I played the base game a year ago for the first time, and I think the game didn't age well at all, and this DLC doesn't improve things. I'm close to the end, but I really don't like how it's playing out right now, and I don't care about the story at all.

Nice, thanks for the info. It has a few games I'm interested in, so I'll get it.

I didn't realize this was set in the Pillars of Eternity universe. I might have to check it out, after I've played Pillars 2.

I'm in the middle of a coop playthrough and wanted to do another solo run, once no more new stuff is coming, but it seems that's gonna take a while longer.

Companies will find a way to apply this also to the rest of the world, citing some bogus reasons.

I struggled this year to find some proper nominees.

My favorite game this year isn't on Steam, the World of Warcraft Pandaria Remix mode, which was some of the most fun I've had with WoW and gaming in general in a long time. The rest of WoW was also pretty good and the game just dominated almost half of this year for me.

Other games I really enjoyed were not from 2024, so I can't nominate them for most cateegories. Baldurs Gate 3, Solasta, Lies of P, or the latest Doom re-releases.

I have watched a bunch of streams of 2024 releases though, so I managed to scrap some stuff together, although I'm not really happy with everything.
