There's still stuff to unlock on the one before that, i.e. beat the final boss at level 12. Got my ass kicked on my attempt last night. The game gets quite tough, it seems. In other news, I bought Bloons TD 6 because it's only 1.37€.
drahkon Posted June 30 Posted June 30 Yeah, The Void Rains Upon Her Heart is the real deal. Played it for 8 hours now. It's kicking my ass, but it's soooo good. I should go to bed but...one more run Buy this game, everybody. It's worth every penny!
drahkon Posted July 2 Posted July 2 OH LOOK, IT'S ANOTHER POST ABOUT The Void Rains Upon Hear Heart. ISN'T THAT FUN? Yes, it is! Not really, but... 13 hours in and I swear it's always the slow moving bullets that creep up on me and hit me every single time Still haven't beaten the final boss(es) at lvl 12 on the penultimate difficulty (is "penultimate" correct here?). I know all their moves but holy moly I can't deal with them Anyways, my save file says I'm at 21% completion...haven't even unlocked all characters and game modes, yet. I wondered why there aren't lots of story beats in the game and figured that they will come at higher difficulties, but that was wrong. The dev said that the story will be added once the game is out of EA, whenever that might be. Quote Roughly 90% of the content is completed and the rest will be added in several updates over the next several months! A few bosses remain 1 more character to play as 1 final game mode Most of the story beyond the introduction has yet to be revealed Can't wait!

Just needs a few ~~°°^^{{{§~~`^° sprinkled liberally throughout it. 1
Happenstance Posted July 2 Posted July 2 Got my games for this Steam sale. Didn't do too many this time, just a couple I'd had my eye on that should work well on specific devices: Anno 1800 Neon Abyss Bloons TD 6 The Binding of Isaac Rebirth 1

Obviously the core gameplay doesn't change, but there are different upgrades/debuffs now. LOVE IT. HATE IT. I'm now at 22% completion after 14.4h. I'm not playing anything else. Help!
Nicktendo Posted July 4 Posted July 4 Spent about 75 bones in the sale and picked up: System Shock (Nightdive Studios version - Loved their work on the Turok games & Forsaken) Dead Rising OG Sea of Stars Balatro Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore (because of my DF boy @Dark1x John's involvement) Batboy Forza Horizon 4: Ultimate Edition (Loved this on GP, but wanted to try the Lego DLC) Legend Bowl (Have a big soft spot for NFL games, especially retro-inspired ones) So far, so good. Loving Dead Rising, Balatro and Forza at 4K60. Yet to dive in to the others. 1

Happenstance Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Might still pick up a few more games before the sale ends. I've heard good things about Cassette Beasts (other than from Drahkon) and I see there's some Vampire Survivors dlc I didn't realise was there so I could get that as well.

Maybe I was too harsh on it. Thinking about modding it with some QoL stuff. Started playing Grim Dawn yesterday...finally. Not too far in, but it definitely scratches that ARPG looty-mc-booty itch. Also bought If found... for a few cents. It's a queer coming-of age visual novel about a trans woman. The topic is something I'm very interested in. I myself have been questioning my sexuality (not my identity, though) for a while now given recent events in my life and I've always tried/am trying to be more aware of the queer scene, so why not expand this into my biggest hobby. Will give the game a go when I'm back home on Sunday. Edited July 5 by drahkon

Watching the reviews on it the game does seem to have quite a deep system that gets more rewarding the more you learn it, its what put me off slightly when I first saw it as I wasn't looking for anything particularly deep.

Jonnas Posted July 8 Posted July 8 The only discounts I took advantage of this summer were the particularly good deals: Invisible Inc. Disco Elysium: The Final Cut And that's it. Gotta keep my backlog in check.
Dcubed Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Oh dear Gabe… what have you done to my wallet… I have a Balatro Fever and the only cure are more Deckbuilder Roguelites (plus a few extra Steam bargains/games with Stereoscopic 3D support). 1 1

I've played the demo for a bit and enjoyed it a lot, but the price was a bit too high for me during that time of my life. Edited July 12 by drahkon

martinist Posted July 29 Posted July 29 Upgraded from a 60hz monitor to a 240hz Samsing Odyssey G6 been having a few ghosting issues with Horizon 5 and other high framerate games.
drahkon Posted July 29 Posted July 29 Before leaving for Berlin I decided to finally give Death Must Die a go. Bought it in December 2023 and I wanted to wait until it's out of early access but that will take much longer now. It seems to have quite a lot of content for now, though, so I figured...what the hell. Needed a game to chill out in my bed before going to sleep Did a few runs, died every time before the 20 minute mark and enjoyed it a lot. There's equipment to find, permanent upgrades to unlock, and now I have 3 characters to play as (but I kinda want to focus on one first). Gonna play it some more in the future and see what it has in store. In August, a QoL patch will be pushed. Looking forward to that even though I don't know what it will entail

Will definitely go back to it once version 1.0 is released. Edited August 2 by drahkon
drahkon Posted August 10 Posted August 10 I spent a considerable amount of time with Slay the Spire on my SteamDeck recently. Wanted to ascend with The Defect and... There ya go My favourite character to play as, my favourite game of all time, can't wait for the sequel
