Dark Souls 2 DLCs via Proton. Maybe bosses and level design are a little less inspired than the other Souls games, but DS2 is still a good game and still my favourite (maybe because it's the first one of the series i've played)

Euro Trucks Simulator 2. Still the best game to listen to some podcasts :)

Also, this is only on Steam and so it's not counting Humble Store where it's also sold.
That makes me wonder how a Steam key activation is counted
Unfortunately, they are not. I asked a developer friend (just yesterday I finally got an answer) and Steamworks shows very little information about keys. Apparently, just total activation and geographic spread of those activations.
:/

Grrr, maybe half of my games on Steam are Steam keys (mostly from Humble).
It surprises me that devs don't have some kind of overall sales stats by OS, including keys activations.
(And actually I'd be very curious to know what kind of stats devs have access to)

Quoting: rat2000I've been waiting for a good off road game ever since when I played Cabelas 4x4 off road adventure 3. Looking at the trailer I think this game still wants to be a bit fast paced for my off road experience, I hope that I am wrong.
According to the dev, the trailer was speed up : https://steamcommunity.com/app/957050/discussions/0/3300476731146420750/ [External Link]
