Borderlands 3, if you somehow missed it, for under £5 is just a good value.

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Idk why you got downvoted. Borderlands 3 for $6 is a pretty good deal. And $16 for the complete edition isn't bad either. I already own the full collection on steam so I can't see the price of that, but when I bought it during the last sale I wanna say I spent like maybe $50 on the entire Borderlands series.

There really is a "Lemmy hive mind" starting to form, just like reddit.

I don't think there were downvotes, just me myself removing 1 upvote (as I am a shy person). I bought it at full price myself, and have no regrets.

[-] rosahaj 7 points 3 hours ago

my reccomendation? whatever's on gog

in all seriousness, you can't go very wrong with games made by valve, portal especially.

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I just bought Suicide Squad (I know, I know, but it was on sale and I want to experience it at least a little); Pine; and Sniper Elite 2R, 3 and 4.

I'm very excited to get into the Sniper Elite games. I played 5 back when I had Game Pass, but never finished. I figured the others might be just as good.

I got myself and can recommend:
Returnal (29.99€) (Rogue-like shooter),
Wisper (6.99€) (Open world exploration) and Crossroads OS (3.74€) (Puzzle game).
I can further recommend:

Studio System (8.84€) (Horror),
With My Past (6.59€) (Puzzle),
Signalis (13.99€) (Horror).

I picked up civilization VI (for my PC), hades and outer wilds for my deck.

[-] MortUS@lemmy.world 10 points 10 hours ago

Talos Principle is $5

Talos Principle 2 is $15

Highly recommend both games!

Celeste is 75% off and is a near-masterpiece of a game.

Portal 1 and Portal 2 are on sale again of course on the chance you haven't yet hit these absolutely classic legendary games.

Persona 4 Golden is 40% off and is awesome, and Persona 5 Royal is 60% and is even more awesome.

Metal: Hellsinger is 70% off and while it isn't a GOTY type game, it's a hell of a lot of fun if you're a contemporary metal music fan.

but my biggest recommendation is probably gonna be

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale at 80% for only $3.99 (US) which is an completely underrated hidden gem of a game and a huge recommendation for anyone who likes quirky cozy-hybrid games or who, like me, spent way too long on the shopkeeper segments in RPGs like Torneko Taloon's chapter in DQIV.

edit: why in the world would anyone ever downvote a personal recommendation comment? Weird behavior, fam

Have you played BPM: Bullets Per Minute? If so, how would you say it compares? I like metal and I like shooting demons, but that one never really grabbed me, I'm not sure why.

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

I haven't ever played BPM, I'm sorry.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

Recettear

This game rocks. 'Nuff said.

[-] spicystraw@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago

Here’s what I picked up during the Steam Spring Sale:

DOOM - $1.99 (90% off)
Stray - $18.99 (40% off)
Undertale - $0.99 (90% off)
Celeste - $4.99 (75% off)
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - $4.99 (90% off)
Red Dead Redemption 2 - $14.99 (75% off)
NieR: Automata - $15.99 (60% off)
Hades - $9.99 (60% off)
Devil May Cry 5 - $19.79 (67% off)
[-] Bosht@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

That's...weird. When I checked the price yesterday Fallen Order was 18.99? Did they do a deeper discount?

[-] spicystraw@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Double checked receipt, and I did indeed get it for that price

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

Maybe? I see it at $3.99, $4.99 is for the deluxe version. I don't see it at $18.99 on Is There Any Deal, but who knows!

[-] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 6 points 16 hours ago

I like this indie game critic, he has a recommendation video for sale

Just a reminder that while we all love Steam, they run an underage gambling ring in the form of CS skins, which they refuse to address.

[-] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 14 points 20 hours ago

Mass Effect legendary edition (all 3 games + all DLCs) is on for 6 Euro.

That's a great deal IMO

We picked up Journey and Star Traders Frontier. I've wanted to play Journey since it came out but I didn't have the proper console. Well, I forgot I put it on the wishlist, and that's a real good price so.

I've (sung? musically yelled at?) another person already.

[-] DeadUncle@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago

Noita is currently 60% off and is hands down the best game I have ever played (kind of). It is ridiculously brutal and you will die very often but you have the potential to get ludicrously powerful as well. The game will cheese you so don't be afraid to cheese it back. In has so much content that beating the final boss for the first time is considered beating the tutorial.

Also if the some aspects are too bullshit for you there is a variety of mods to fix these, and there is absolutely no shame in using them.

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I use the mod that respawns you at the last checkpoint. It's SOO nice to have.

[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 14 points 22 hours ago

Elite Is a space flight economics simulator.

Fly around buy here sell there look at stuff for fun and get into battles

Great game but you will want a hotas set up if you really get into it
