Is Cyberpunk on sale right now? I don't think my system is strong enough to run it well but if it's cheap I might as well pick it up for later.

---

$21.

I just picked up Zombies ate my Neighbors on Switch for $5.

I've been playing the new beta of super people. It's getting better with each patch but don't think it is going to make it.

Playing the first Death Stranding. I've owned this game since release but never got into it. But wanted to give it another shot with the sequel out now. Really enjoying it this time around.

Picked up SubNautica for the Steam Deck (never played before).

Interesting game because it feels like the perfect game to play on a handheld. Not sure if it would have held my interest playing on a console/TV... but I'm having a great time playing in bed / on the couch while hanging out with the wife.

Nice! Cyberpunk is a top 10 game, for me. It would be hilarious for those who never played during the initial release were to try the original 1.0 build for the game. It would blow their minds.

One of these days, I'm gonna go back in play it. I played for the 1st month of release and just wasn't feeling it

It's very peaceful/relaxing. I started playing it on a whim, about 2 months back, and ended up playing for 16 hours or so until a release I was waiting for came out. I'm interested in going back and trying to complete the game. I bet SubNautica would be amazing in VR.

I missed this one somehow but just bought it for $15. Weird that Subnautica 2 doesn't have VR support but the original does.

I vehemently disagree. When you are in your seamoth in dark water and you hear a leviathan, that was certainly not peaceful or relaxing in my experience

I finished Unchartered 4 yesterday. What an incredible game. Legit emotionally impactful.

The next one that looks to take place in India came with it. Has a chick named Chloe voiced by Claudia Black. Is it as good?

It has been a while, but I enjoyed it. It felt like a decent end to the series.

Never played the earlier games. This one certainly looks to be the finale. I bet that was a great ride for everyone that played all of the games in this series.

I'm back on my WoW bull*****

Finished Ori, time for me to buckle down and wrap up Fallout.

Any idea if there's a character editor for Diablo 1? I'm on my first playtthrough for that and seem to have hit a wall where I'm not getting better gear, and I'm also not leveling up since enemies don't respawn. Not sure what the workaround for that is.

Pretty sure this is the next one on my list after I finish Horizon. I skipped the PS4 so I'm playing catch up on the last 10+ years of PS games with my new PS5.

Don't do it. You will think it is over and you will start another play through

Finishing up The Great Circle. Fun game. Not too difficult, good story.

Will be booting up NCAA26 at 11am when the hold lifts.

Grounded in preparation for the sequel coming. It looks like a kids game, but difficulty is no joke.

Been making my way through Rogue Trader. Loving it. Been a hot minute since I have gone through a CRPG and getting the old excitement back in the genre.

Yeah I had fun with this one. Voice acting was TOP notch all around. Really well done video game for anyone to enjoy and especially charming for us 80's kids who grew up on Indian Jones!

I posted this in the steam sale thread, but I got SurrounDead for 6 bucks. If you liked project zomboid, but it was a little to complicated for you, check it out.

It's soooo good so far. I am deep in the Warhammer lore and have been for almost two decades and the Rogue Trader setting has always been one of my favorites and Owlcat Games has done it justice. I bought all the TTRPG books years ago with the intent to play with a couple of friends and then moved away and now they just sit there.....one day. One day.

Owlcat also announced Dark Heresy. Another WH40K TTRPG in the same vein as Rogue Trader that they are going to adapt into a CRPG. We gonna be eatin good for a while. That one you will take the role of an Inquisitor and do Inquisitor things. Which if you know anything about them, wow, the possibilities are endless on what you can do. That's an instant purchase for me.

Yeah, I read Einhorn last year and actually trying to decide which WH40k books I'm going to read next so I'm hooked into this. I don't really know what Rogue Trader is, but top down CRPGs are my favorite game format and with Owlcat doing this and it being WH40k it's an instant purchase for me.

I've always admired WH from the distance as I was married and doctoring and such when it came on the scene so never got into it like I did with Battletech, GURPS, etc.

Any tips on which books to start with? I'm almost done with Dungeon Crawler so need a new book anyways.

Already bought Rogue Trader based on you guys as I love turn based tactical stuff like Xcom.

The classic starting point for 40k novels is the Eisenhorn series of books by Dan Abnett, or the Gaunts Ghosts series, again by Dan Abnett. Those deal with an Inquisitor and a Guard regiment, respectively.

Dan Abnett did some great Guardians of the Galaxy comics. Kinda the reason for their existence, if I'm not mistaken.

About to start Bomber Crew.

Really depends on where you want to go next interest wise. You took the first crucial step already and dipped your toes in and are now familiar with the broadest subjects at the very least. If you want to keep going the Imperium of Man, Gaunt's Ghosts is simply fantastic. It's the little guys against the universe. Band of Brothers style. Simple Guardsmen just fighting and trying to stay alive. The books take them through all sorts of campaigns. You've got a WW1 style trench stuff, Cloud City jetpack book, a Stalingrad last stand book (My fave), a super sneaky insurgent style one, etc.

Or you can go ahead and just start the "main" story arc of Warhammer 40K(30K). The Horus Heresy. Horus Rising is book one of like 60ish? It's a hodgepodge honestly with multiple authors creating it. Some are ok, some are great. One is legitimately one of the better books I may have read period, Sci fi or otherwise (The First Heretic) But it lays out the the fall of the Imperium and why 40K is so jacked up. The origin story if you will.

Or you can go other routes of course. Chaos is always fun. The Night Lords Trilogy is shockingly good and universally acclaimed as being just damn good. Even if you don't like the faction. Aaron Dembski-Bowden is the author and he and Dan Abnett are largely considered the titans of the Black Library author pool. DA for the "good guys" and ADB for the "bad guys". More or less. ADB can really make you love a baddie.

Man I can go on and on about this topic....

ETA: Also have seen it repeated everywhere that it is safe to go ahead and pick the DLC for RT. They are legit apparently and worth it and today is the last day of the summer sale I believe.

Oh and if you liked Eisenhorn, give Ciaphas Cain a try at some point. It's definitely a lot more tongue in cheek and even humorous. I consider them like two sides of the same coin. One really grim and dour and the other really...kinda not.

What Claude! said below you. Really can't go wrong with those at all. Of those two, I would say Gaunt's Ghosts is a little easier to slide into content wise if you are coming into sci fi completely new. Just a bunch of regular soldiers headed by a commissar who is actually a human being tasked to battle against the horrors of their universe.

Ciaphas Cain is another great choice, yes. A science-fiction retelling of the old Flashman series of novels with a lovable rogue. Not nearly as hard into the grimdark as a lot of other 40k books, but fun reads.

I love Flashman. I'll put this on the list as well.
