My haul was Darkest Dungeon, Scanner Sombre and Firewatch. There's shitloads more I want, but my sub-backlog of games I actually intend to play soon is too big.

I bought nothing because PC gaming is dead.

This post is exempt from the No Context Thread.

I've picked up a few things. Only thing I can think of right now is a all the Guilty Gear stuff on steam. I really suck at fighters by Xrd looks strawberry floating immense. I can see why people were so excited for Dragonball Fighter Z

I wondered if I was over Infinity RPGs as I could not get into PoE. It's probably my most re-attempted game of the last few years, I've tried 4 times now. Torment: Tides of Numanera proved me wrong though. I just think PoE is really quite dull.

In Path of Exile it is possible to make a totally broken character and only realise it 10+ hours later. It is one of the least egregious f2p games but also one of the least respectful of your time.

Ah, totally forgot about that. Picked it up just there, must have forgot to add it my wishlist.

I found out recently that the creators are from Glasgow, and there's a chance I may have even demoed a game I made to them without realising. :o

I've bought:

STEINS GATE
Zero Escape: The Nonery Games (999 & Virtues Last Reward)
Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma
Torment: Tides of Numenera
Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!
Holy Potatoes! We're in Space?!
Domina

Have a few other things in my wishlist but I think that's probably enough for the moment.

I also bought the Necromancer DLC for Diablo 3 which I've pretty much played nonstop for the past few days, currently lvl60 and somewhat overpowered for expert difficulty but I think master and torment might be too much for me (I don't have the manual dexterity to use any skills so only use primary/seconday attacks plus whatever randomly cast attacks that came attached to loot).

I bought a load of random sub-£1 games. Thinking of getting something more expensive, Disgaea PC or Darkest Dungeon maybe.

Can anyone confirm if this is the case? I had a look online and can't seem to find the answer and I can't remember how it normally goes. If I get the bundle as a gift will I get separate codes for the main game and each piece of DLC?

I don't know if I have the stomach for that.


its a shame no one else picked up on this :lol:

I got that Mr President! game from humble bundle for 4p yesterday, but nothing in the sale for me. I have too much of a backlog and nothing i'm really interested in is out yet.

I picked up Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, mostly for the latter, because they are really good emulations (they're actually proper ports) and the CRT in the megadrive game room thing is great. Plus US versions.

£1.50 with trading card pennies. There doesn't seem to be anything I don't already have, or other stuff I should play instead, these days. I thought about Stardew Valley but I only just started Terraria which is similar (not to mention, "free" - i.e. I never played it).

Interest in Val1l1lahahhala1 too but not sure I have time to sit down and play it at the moment. So next sale...

Steinsgate is sadly just too expensive.

I just know I'm gonna play that and swear blind to myself that it always looked that good.

Thanks, that's what I thought. :x

I ended up just getting Old World Blues and Lonely Road DLC for New Vegas...

As well as Gal*Gun Double Peace :oops: :datass:

Now I just need to find time to actually play some of these games. :cry:

I've been waiting literally years for this to come out so I can replay RE4. :lol:

I take from those screenshots they've not finished the castle section yet? I could swear I heard they'd already done that.

I'm pretty sure the Castle was recently released (most of the Island work is done too, I think) but they're touching everything up on top of what they've already done.

Didn't really buy much in the sale, just the following

Abzu - I loved Journey, been wanting for a while and it was pretty cheap.

Minecraft Story Mode + Adventure Pass + Telltale Texas Hold 'Em - Was just going to buy Story Mode but because I owned everything else in one of the Telltale Bundles I got all that for a fiver, can't see me managing to get it much cheaper than that.

Life is Strange: Complete Season - Gave Episode One a go during the sale and enjoyed it so figured this was worth buying, works out as £1 per episode which I can't complain at, just done Episode 3 and still enjoying it (if not quite seeing what all the fuss is about!).

I had a few other things on my wishlist that I was close to buying but figured I already had similar games in my backlog that I hadn't touched and that I should probably play first. Quite pleased with myself for not adding an obscene amount of hours to my backlog for a change :lol:
