Multiplayer

Zombie Army 4 - Stadia

The PVE in this game is just so good. My family and I have been enjoying it a lot lately. I picked up some of the DLC using the GRC I earned recently. The last map is a done of fun to play on Brutal mode.

Lara Croft: Guardian of Light - Stadia

A good friend of mine that has not play online MP games since 2002 took advantage of the free trial and we ran through this game and had a good time. They picked up some other games on sale and we're currently setting up some runs for the weekend coming up before vacation time hits.

SHING! - GOG

My family and I loved this game. We completed the campaign and are now going back and taking care of all of the challenges. Some of us are playing with the default control method where the right stick is aim oriented melee attack (high, mid, low) while the others are playing using a traditional control method which is similar to old school brawlers with very little aiming.

Single Player

Little Nightmages II - Stadia

This game series is excellent. I don't like to spoil games for anyone but the difference btw part 1 and 2 are just enough to make this experience feel unique. From the main character's ability to attack depending on the melee weapons you find to the working with another NPC to complete obectives and obstacles I found myself glued to this game.

Jupiter Hell - GOG

Every update makes this game way better than that last. I'm going be hitting my 100th hour on this game since I got it and I can see myself enjoying another 100 as I explore more and more of this DOOMRL successor. This was my first Early Access game and I've very surprised how polished it is. Since their freeware version was so good I took the shot and it's been great since day 1.

Valheim is just an incredible experience you need to play

I played it when it was on itch.io and enjoyed it. I hope it can return there, one day.

Skullgirls: Annie goes up in Beta along with the Season Pass and a Linux support update

Quoting: GuestI only play this game occasionally, but considering other online games this is par for the course. I don't like the langage of DLC's, but considering it's a fighting game if they are actually releasing 4-5 characters like years ago, it'd be worth calling it an expansion.

Even bigger games like CS:GO release weird paid content (operations) to get more money. And afaik you can just keep playing your version anyway if you don't consider the update worth the price, i still don't have Big Band etc. unlocked in mine. (but that's largely because i suck at these games and never play them online. This is one of those games i only bought because it released on linux)
I hear ya. This game is a mix of SP, Local MP and Online MP, so while I understand the nature of this it's part of the reason why I just can not trust buying games that go online in which I do not get a functional binary for my own safe keeping. I do play online but mostly with ppl I know IRL. I tried a few games last year with stranger but it was not good enough to keep me doing it.

Thankfully, I bought this when it was still selling the DRM-FREE binary on Humble Bundle which included all the DLC at the time so I have all of the characters up to Annie. I recently walked away from Steam also because other titles that I did give a chance from 2019 to 2020 updated and I no longer had access to the versions I liked.

Quoting: cybikHow else would you suggest they create the extra content? All the new frames, the new voice actor work, testing, hitbox setup, game balance testing, all of this good stuff takes time and people working on it.
I'm quoting a friend here but I'm not their demographic. I just want to buy a complete game and keep it moving.

Loved the game but Season pass stuff is rubbing everyone I know into this game the wrong way. I'm tapping out on it but I had a great time playing it over the years. Looks like I gonna have to stick to Fightcade, RetroArch and the DRMFREE version of Skullgirls for my fighting game kick.

Saving this for later. Taking a break from playing my older titles as I've been playing them since debut til 2020 but I'm saving all of these maps for when the wave a new games my family want to try comes to a halt. This looks excellent.

This is excellent. I no longer use Steam but I have a few family members on there. This can help us ditch Parsec and they can go on ahead and remove their Windows install if this works out.
