Won't be long until Steam bans these games but at least this one has a joke involved.

I want to highlight a few games that probably fly under the radar that I grabbed that I am excited to play.

as with every year, i truly madly deeply want to throw my money away but there's no real "sale", anything which appears to have a low price tag is because it's hiding behind a hundred million dlcs.
and fuck hitman. that's just a scam scheme at this point.

I can't get past the last level in Santa Monica. Why is it so hard :lol:

edit: I got it after exploiting the AI but it sent me to the Osaka ending screen. Might be because it glitched and gave me a blank dialogue prompt and I reloaded the page. I did it again and got sent to Santa Monica. I might be the person that played this the longest now other than the dev.
Yeah, the last level is hard, I think if you haven't beaten it in the first 30ish seconds it's almost impossible to recover (which could arguably be bad game design, but could also be metacomemntary on how hard it is to escape the White Devil).

Took a chance on this and it kinda blew my mind, already clocked in 10 hours in 3 days. It's like that roman legionnaire rpg if anyone remembers it, wouldn't surprise me if it's the same devs.

They are currently butchering the DQ III remake.
Could you give the details?
I thought they did not intend to change the plot..
We only have previews for now but they pretty much removed gender entirely from the game (instead of male female we now have type A or type B) and some character models are either toned down or censored like the lips on the troll:

square-enix-has-censored-the-trolls-lips-in-dragon-quest-hd-v0-59gp84kck2cd1.png

I expect more stuff will come out once we see more parts of the game. SE always censors their remasters/remakes.
