Quoting: TheRiddickWhat's next months games? I seem to buy allot of games, then just end up staring at them in my steam/gog libraries.. might wait until I see what next months are to be.
Only BATTLETECH is revealed so far. Sometimes, they don't reveal more than one. Other teams, they reveal like up to three. You don't get to know all of them until they're released and you can't buy the bundle anymore. You have to be subscribed before they're released.

Oh my. Did anyone not want Slay the Spire or Distance from last month? ;) I might need to head over to Steam Trades.

The incredibly atmospheric racing platformer Distance just got even bigger

I have yet to pick this one up, but it looks great. Once my friends and I are bored of Dirt 4 (won't be real long from now), I think this is the next racer. One big caveat, though: We are sucked into WoW Classic at the moment. :D

Quoting: 14Hmm... it doesn't looks like PoE II is on sale at GOG at the moment. I believe it was earlier in the week, though.
That's the trouble with GOG, store pages don't show time left like Humble and Steam do <_<
Yeah, I hate that. Months ago, I complained here that they didn't post a sale end-time. Of course, someone found that it is published on GOG's site somewhere. It was so un-intuitive that I haven't been able to find it again. It's as good as non-existent.

Valve has some new Steam search features with Steam Labs, updates to Micro Trailers

My gut reaction to Micro Trailers: they will continue the shrinking of attention spans of entertainment consumers.

I really recommend Dungeons III, especially if you can play with a friend.

FOSS fantasy turn-based strategy game Battle for Wesnoth has a new Beta, still porting to Godot Engine

Quoting: 14This is exciting. And, to be honest, I'm happy that they are in Steam now. Downloading the full game for every little update is simply inefficient. Steam really helps that. *glares at SuperTuxKart*
That's why exist delta RPM :) (not sure if exist something similar on deb front) Ofc not all distros use it but some like Fedora or SUSE. It download only parts that was changed. So not 500 MB but just 100 MB or similar value.
Ah. I didn't know that. That's quite nice. I am not sure if Arch has something like that... I doubt it, but will take a look.

EDIT: Looks like it is possible with Arch but not officially supported.

Co-op puzzle game We Were Here Together launching on October 10th (updated)

I'm definitely getting it. A friend and I played the previous two and we quite enjoyed them. I agree with some Steam reviews that the first one was better than the second, but I still liked both.
