Acutally some crazy good deals in here. And the Saints Row reboot bomb had a season pass? That's criminal.

Heard interesting things of Kingdom Come Deliverance and it's 90% off so maybe I pick that up.
Already bought the Dead Island Bundle for 3 bucks since I never played riptide haha.

I've heard amazing things about Red Faction because of the enviornment destruction but i got no idea if the multiplayer for that game is alive.

My disc drive is going bad so getting Metro Redux AND Exodus (and all DLC) for $10 is a steal

I never played Exodus so that alone for $10 would be a good deal but getting 2033 and Last Light is amazing

How does it compare to Skyrim? From what I understand they are kinda similar?

One thing I love is being able to build a house or something so if KCD allows me to do that I would be very interested haha

Yeah, that's it

I think it's more than worth that price, I think I bought Redux on disc for more than that and that didn't even have Exodus

They always have Xbox games on sale I think. But the only one from this sale from the original is Timesplitters for 2 bucks which I never played.

I would try Metro but I tried fallout and I don't really like nuclear fallout atmospheres. Idk, something about them just dont do it for me. Maybe Metro is different but eh

You don't get to build a house but in one of the dlc you can rebuild a town. Kcd is just a realistic medieval game no magic, the more you train the better your character gets.

It's also possible to fail missions because you're not at a certain place at the time you're told to be.

"Meet me at [location] tomorrow at noon" means your ass better be there tomorrow AT noon and not one second later.

Its vaguely similar to Skyrim. The MC is actually his own character, which is so so much better.

The missions can often be tackled in a larger variety of ways. Like, hypothetically you need an item. You can pickpocket it. Sneak in the dead of night into someones room to steal it. Beat the fuck out of someone to just take it. Beat the fuck out of whoever requires it instead of giving it to them. Convince someone to give it to you. Or just buy it. Not all of these types of options are always possible, but there's a pretty large amount of choices available. Sometimes even failing will point you towards other quests that will push the story forward in a different way. Other times it does just devolve into do this a certain way and you're railroaded. It's a nice mix imo

It's a good looking game and the story seems decent, but I just couldn't get into the gameplay. Combat is pretty bad and I got sick of trying to figure out the expiring food and stuff. May try it again since I like the setting.

Basically. It's an interesting game and worth checking out, but man the combat system is basically broken. I don't know why it's so hard for devs to make a decent first person melee combat game. Dying Light is the only one that really gets it right, but most of the time you're smacking zombies around. KCD tries to get really complicated with shields and parries etc and most of the time it fails to do what you tell it to with the controls.

I honestly don't remember anything about the food. I don't remember it being a big deal. Also, I just shot people in the face with the bow or mashed buttons like it was skyrim for melee. I know there's extra stuff to the melee system but I found it wildly unnecessary since I could just bow murder everyone easily enough

KCD is a far, far better game than Skyrim, and I say that as somebody who likes Skyrim.

The combat is easy, the only thing that sucks is almost everytime you try and pull off a combo the enemy will parry your attacks. If you want to breeze throigh the game just grab a shield and mace and riposte all attacks, you'll fuck up fully armored groups of cumans like nothing. Food is a non issue, there are cooking pots all over the world or grab the salted perk and meat you carry lasts a lot longer especially jerky.

I might just pick up KCD because why not. No idea when I will have time to play it but it won't get any cheaper than this haha.

Be very careful on the BG1 &2. Save file got corrupted. I had to delete the game and save to be able to play it again

Yeah.

Bought it about a week ago and it's still being listed at that price.

I also picked up Baldur's Gate 3 ($14 at the time) but I'd like to start with these first to better know how the whole franchise works.

Seems like quite the complicated series to understand.

It's better once you do the training.

Also, learn to read sooner than later.

I spent my time wandering around enjoying the atmosphere while doing easy side quests for that reason.Don't get me started on the archery.

Great deal for the Metro games as well, played them all twice. But I paid full price ...
