I was looking at getting some roguelikes / lites (already have ToME, CoQ), unfortunately Cataclysm DDA is not on sale.

Krone Hotel at 90% off looks like a decent choice too. Then there’s Jupiter Hell, which I recently stumbled upon and looks great too.

I’d also like to get some of the FF games, though I’ve played VI, VII, IX and a bit of XII, it would be nice to revisit some of the older ones I haven’t played almost since the PSX era.

Thinking about buying Elden Ring and RE2,

RE2 is so cheap but I'm a pussy who could hardly stand a horror game. Can only play 2 levels of Dead Space a day.

Is ER fair if I don't plan to do coop or use summons?

I thought ER was on par with or easier than other souls games solo, I actually had a harder time playing in co-op than solo. It's quite fun and has a ton of replayability on PC with the modding community. I'm in the same vein with the spooky games being a no-go, so I have nothing to offer on RE2 vs ER.

Thank you. I heard some complained about it not being fair for a solo player like other FS games. Glad to hear that it's somewhat easier.

I've never done any soulsborne with co-op and I think Elden Ring is one of the best games I've ever played. Can't recommend highly enough. When you say summons do you mean spirit ashes?

Not sure what's call in ER, the thing that can summon NPCs or players to help you.

Thank you. I heard some complains about it being less fair compared to other FS games due to this summoning thing.

Yea, the ai Summons are spirit ashes. I totally used spirit ashes, but there are plenty of folks who don't. It's pretty tough but if you've been successful in other souls games you'll be fine. The insane detail and thought put into world design is the best part for me, so didn't see a reason not to use spirit ashes.
