WickIebee posted... Oh? Depending on how you enjoy this one I may have to look into their other games. I hadn't done so yet because I never really heard much about them, so maybe you'll be the one to jumpstart me in those regards. I don't know a lot about Reus or their other game, but I can say that Renowned Explorers is excellent. --- Our eyes were removed For our own safety ... Copied to Clipboard!

I will be honest, I was worried I would forget about it, so I checked the wishlist as soon as I was told who I had. Turns out you have a lot of games I hold in high regard on there, made the choice kinda difficult --- I do what I want! You have problem !? ... Copied to Clipboard!

KCF0107 12/22/21 7:03:59 PM #110: |
When you didn't want me to look at your wishlist, I instead looked at your most played games and based stuff off of that. You seemed to really like roguelikes, so I went with Monster Train as a comparison to Slay the Spire and Noita as a general roguelike that looks to have pretty unique and fun mechanics. I was looking at a Stardew Valley comparison, and I landed on My Time at Portia not knowing how much 2D meant to you in that type of game. PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate though was a personal pick and not based on anything you played. I've given it to four of the seven different people I have drawn in our secret santa! --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy If you smell what the rock is cooking he's cooking crap - ertyu ...

Just received Bloodstained and Griftlands from Abacus. A game that I've had sudden strong interest in after playing a bunch of other metroidvanias, and a card battler I've been watching since early access. Both games I'm sure I'll enjoy greatly, so thanks! edit: Oh damn, I accepted too quick. Also Yoku's Island Express and Shantae & the Pirate's Curse. Damn, dude. Your generosity is overwhelming. I was thinking I'd stock up on some things to play while they were on sale, but maybe that isn't needed after four games (plus Omori from plum's topic). --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ...

KCF0107 12/23/21 4:41:54 PM #127: |
The first year that we did this (2014), the spending limit was $10 USD. I had participated in a few secret santa/white elephant gift exchanges before, and they were pretty adamant about sticking to the spending limit, so I spent $10 on the dot (pre-tax obviously) in that first one, only to see that nobody really cared about adhering to the recommended limit. I've gone over every year since, but I don't go too crazy. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy If you smell what the rock is cooking he's cooking crap - ertyu ...

RikkuAlmighty 12/23/21 4:54:51 PM #128: |
Yeah I'll go over the limit because I like gifting stuff out but I don't have the same expectation in receiving when I sign up for these things. Although of course it's nice when it happens! I think you're fine as long as you aren't abusing the system like I've heard some people doing on, say, the reddit secret santa. --- https://backloggery.com/cwistofu https://letterboxd.com/cwistofu/ ...

Metalmind got me Celeste, and the Hitman 2 & Hitman - GOTY Legacy Pack all of which I am downloading now! Celeste I don't know a lot about other than it being a difficult platformer, and is really good from what I hear. Platformers are my favorite genre, so super excited to try this one out! Don't know what to expect, but sure to be a great time. The new Hitman games were always games that always looked just plain fun, and I've always wanted to try them out and now I can! There's recently been super high praise on the series in a podcast I listen to, so that had me even more interested. Thanks a ton, Metalmind! --- https://backloggery.com/zayakza ...

Thank you so much for this Sanctuary RPG Black Edition - An ASCII rpg sounds interesting. Haven't ever tried this genre before so hopefully I enjoy it :P Wildermyth - This one looks really cool! I haven't heard of this one either but I'm most excited for this after watching the trailer. I really love the art style Thanks for giving me so much new stuff to check out!

Oh god, when I sent Stingers a Friend Request I knew that if he was my Santa that I'd end up with the game I've been waiting for to actually push myself into resuming a game I've put off because of not having the third game. That is, Trails in the Sky the 3rd chapter. But that's not all, he also got me Tales of Vesperia and Baba is You (or in this case, Me). Quite a crazy load, and since the other Trails game was the first game, we still don't have any duplicates if I've seen correctly. Oh, the Yoku already ended it, for some reason didn't read KCF's latest message. --- I'll just go back to gifs. Not like the winner was gonna click my topic. https://i.imgur.com/SXyi7uX.gifv ...

I checked my message and seems I forgot something (not a missed gift), I commented on my surprise of the gifts, and actually basically mentioned to a few other people just how spoiled I got by my Secret Santa, but I lacked a few words of actual gratitude. Thank you Stingers, as you can tell I got quite a bit overwhelmed, and I'm learning just how hard Baba is You can be already, ahaha~ But I felt I lacked using actual thanks thus far. That said, here's to 2022 and me actually completing TitS now that I literally got gifted the entire sub-series through various years, ahaha~ Maybe I'll actually pay for Cold Steel myself if I can actually get a job. --- I'll just go back to gifs.
