I've about $50 in my steam wallet and I'm wondering what this community would think are must-haves. I'm currently eyeing Satisfactory and Potion Craft and am worried I'm missing out on any great deals.

If you're into difficult platformers, then the original Super Meat Boy is 90% off ($1.49, regional prices on steamdb: https://steamdb.info/app/40800/

Age of Empires II Definitive edition is 75% off. It's 5 euro. As far as I know, it was never discounted more.

I know that deck building are not that popular but I really liked the game ash of gods:the way, very entertaining storytelling and some puzzles blew my mind

Can't recommend Disco Elysium enough, it's a truly brilliant game.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the righteous is right up there too.

Pillars of eternity games are a close second to that.

Everyone should try Sekiro! Especially the folks who slept on the Souls-Borne genre before Elden Ring.

The combat system is punishing. And it ain't Dark Souls. But when it clicks you get the power fantasy of Sanjuro, Seven Samurai, Kill Bill, and Star Wars.

Outer Wilds

Cassette Beasts, if you like (or used to like) Pokémon. Fantastic, in-depth twists on the genre. Plus it has an amazing art style and is full of charm.

Stardew Valley, Graveyard Keeper, portal 1 and 2, Undertale, Katana Zero, Fallout 4, Skyrim, RimWorld, and if you want nsfw ones I can recommend in private.

My games: Our Hero! First, Two and Last! Total = 1.98€ 😆

Disco Elysium at 75% off is a steal!

Also, Kingdom Come Deliverance, 75% off and rven cheaper than Disco Elysium. This one is hands down one of the best modern rpg games I have played, especially because you can play without the minimap relying on directions given by NPCs, it is so inmersive and it has a plethora of interesting mechanics and an amazingly beautiful world.

I grabbed a bunch of smaller games for my steamdeck that I’ve been wanting to try:

Noita - you’re a wizard in a rougelike physics sandbox environment

Super Meatboy - precision platformer ($1.25)

Cave Story+ - old Metroidvania platformer I never got around to finishing on console years ago

Fez - 2D/3D puzzle platformer

DIG - “Spelunky meets Enter the gungeon & Broforce” action rougelike platformer

Super Blood Hockey - old school arcade style hockey, pixel graphics (and has multiplayer split screen)

Binding of Isaac - never played it, gonna see what all the hype is about. Action rougelike

Tunic - old school LoZ style RPG

Pizza Tower - sonic the hedgehog on crack

Dave the Diver - dive, catch fish, sell fish in restaurant, buy better gear, dive, catch bigger fish, repeat…

Cursed to Golf - deck building rougelike with golf mechanics

Monster Sanctuary - 2D Pokémon platformer

Resident Evil 3 - cause it was $10 and I just finished 2

Is Noita a game that you can keep going back to? I've been considering to buy it for some time now, but I feel like the learning curve is way to steep for playing it casually once or twice a week. Also, I generally only play games with a controller. Does Noita have good controller support?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It’s a rougelike so you’ll die a lot… I think it’s really fun but it can be punishing. There is a ton to do and lots to explore though so if you can push through the difficulty curve it’s pretty rewarding.

Controls could be better but it’s not unplayable with a controller. Definitely made for KB+M though…

Recommend checking sales over at GOG, only DRM free games 👍
