Chaotic evil here. No regrets.

I get most of my games from Humble Bundle now days but I grabbed:

Hades - great roguelite from steam deck

Subnautica below zero - subpart continuation of one of the best games this millennia

Technomancer - purely because mortismal gaming suggested it

24 euros. Worth it.

Damn. I must play Brotato more. Not showing on the list

I have an old iPad on my nightstand and I paid for Narwhal. I have no idea why I can still use it like the 'old times' but I'm grateful that I can still browse Reddit.

It's a husk of the former site I loved but the niche communities I care are still there. I wish for and 2nd and 3rd, 4th etc dramas on Reddit to get people here but sadly it's a numbers matter game.

I started Brotato after some serious Vampire Survivors. I want to know what the heck is the genre of Brotato and VS and find more games like them.

Heard only positive about Balatro. I need to keep my addiction to one game at the time hehe. You know any (roguelitish?) games that are off the radar or more obscure? They seem to be my jam.

I have never played Destiny 2 and wanted to try it out one month ago. I asked on Reddit what to do as a free-to-play player to get a good insight of what the game has to offer.

The gatekeeping was unreal. They said unless I'm willing to dedicate hundreds of hours I should not even try and rather uninstall the game immediately. For sure they made it feel that new players are not welcome.

Playerbase toxicity was a harsh reality. The game story, even in the broadest sense, was hard to grasp. The new player experience in-game was miserable. I have no idea what their money making plan is. Live service games need new players to stay healthy.

Wait what? Slay the Spire was on your list? Care to elaborate on that a little bit more?

All my Slay the Spire runs start with the exact same starter deck and I do not have extra health, damage, or other bonuses from my prior runs. I don't get your point.

FTL? What the heck. If I beat the flagship I don't get any bonuses for beating it for my next run.

I don't know if we understand 'roguelite where we get permanent bonuses for next round' in the same way. In Hades and Rogue Legacy your run will most likely be more stronger than your last run because of permanent upgrades. In FTL, Slay the Spire or Into the Breach you don't get those - you just expand the available starting gear / setups.

I am somewhat of a patient gamer so I tend to focus on few years old games.

Currently playing Valkyria Chronicles which works pretty well on deck ( I hate how finicky accurate aiming is ). Non-interactive visual novel storytelling and turn based combat puzzles works really well for short periodic gaming moments.

Just finished Salt & Sanctuary and the remastered Grim Fandango. Both great on deck and good games overall

I kinda get you. I too didn't like when I started always with the same starter deck but then it grew on me. When there is no game progression (think for Rogue Legacy etc. permanent upgrades) the progression is you and your game knowledge. Every single run starts the same but evolves to so different each and every time and you make better decisions over the run. I love it.

Firewatch on your list was awesome. Really enjoyed it.

Never heard of the second last game.

V6 and Super meat boy are such a legendary games. Enjoy! For other platformers I'd suggest Owlboy, DuckTales, Hollow Knight, Celeste and Rogue legacies when you have time or haven't played them yet.

TW:Warhammer 1 has the added bonus that if you like TW:W games and in a few years buy the second Warhammer you can 'merge' the campaigns in to a bigger campaign called Mortal Empires. You can play all the factions (and DLCs you own) from both games in that campaign. Same applies to Warhammer 3

Thanks. Hades and Disco Elysium were on my list but you had many listed that I've never heard of. Much appreciated.

When you say perfected the formula I have to agree with you. It's such a joy to start with the same deck as the top 1% A20 only players and make your own journey. It just feels so right and well balanced.

Ooh. Thanks for the suggestions. Not sure about Deep Rock (multiplayer eh? Can't pause mid game, right?) but the Slice & Dice and Dicey Dungeons sound like something I'd be interested. Much appreciated.

You're the second person suggesting Deep Rock. Now I'm guessing that there are two games: one multiplayer, one not with similar names. I guess I have to research on them. Thanks mate!
