I suggest you put off getting a bunch of games until the winter sale that will most likely start right after Thanksgiving

Yeah that too. Don't buy anything now. Wait for Christmas sales where most of what's recommended will be 30-90% off

Danganronpa

Wait for Black Friday and Cyber Monday and upgrade your machine. As long as your PSU will support it, even tossing in a cheap video card will often let you play everything, just on low settings. You may have to spend a bunch to make games beautiful, but not to just be able to play them.

Are you looking for pc exclusive games or just games in general?

This. They typically do a fall/winter sale around Black Friday, a Christmas sale toward the end of the year, some kind of spring sale, and a summer sale in mid-July, plus a horror-themed one for halloween. This is in addition to mid-week and weekend sales, the occasional publisher-based or other themed sale, and daily sales, all of which happen year-round.

Don't feel like you have to rush to populate your library. That will come very quickly just by picking up games that pique your interest when they get a good sale, especially if you get bundles (keep an eye on the Humble Bundles as well, since they're VERY economical). Just pick up cheap games that interest you, wishlist interesting games you find that aren't on sale yet so you can track them, and your library will grow pretty quickly.

Also that. Even some fairly cheap upgrades will get you playing just about anything, if you aren't worried about getting the best performance. Do some research about the minimums you'll need, and see if you can meet those with discounted hardware.

I was wondering when someone would say this. But I agree.

use it to get the wrinkles out of you clothes

I only have $13

they might still have a star wars bundle. it has KoToR 1+2 and a couple jedi academy games

Battlerite is a game that just went free to play it's like a MOBA if they removed all of the gameplay elements except fighting and made rounds last 2 minutes. It's basically a fighting game with MOBA gameplay (and 2v2 or 3v3 battles)

PC specs please, maybe I can chuck you a spare bundle key

Listing favorites here:

Crypt of the Necrodancer - Highly unique iteration of a roguelike dungeon crawl. Good music, aesthetic, game depth.

Overcooked - Haven't played much of this, but if I had a girlfriend, I would absolutely pick it as a first choice to co-op with.

Crusader Kings 2 - Medieval history simulator. Nothing quite like it.

Psychonauts - It's a classic.

Sins of a Solar Empire - A mix between RTS and turn base grand strategy game. Never thought it could exist, but here it be, and it's cool. Community is still active if you realllllly want to get deep into the game and not be a casual.

Spacechem - greatest puzzle game in existence. It's like dark souls in ethos.

X-COM - babby's first real strategy game. I jest, but it's got a legacy, and casual/hardcore appeal.

Tales of Maj'Eyal - The best, modern traditional roguelike RPG. It's actually the 4th iteration of the "series", it still gets updates, it's got a variety of classes that range from traditional to obtuse, and they're all unique and fun to play. Ridiculous amount of replayability and depth.

A key from a bundle, like Humble Bundle.

You can't play shit I'd offer though, so won't waste the key.

no graphics card eh? that's really gonna limit your options, but there's still a ton of stuff on my list you can handle. check some of it out, and name anything you might be really interested in and if you're lucky I might have a spare steam key lying around collecting dust
