Melusina Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 OK, I'm looking for either good platformer or RPG to buy. Currently have 35€ and I'm stomped. I feel like my money is just sitting on my wallet and I really need to buy something. I have tried clearing my backlog, but I keep getting obsessed about that wallet funds! requirements: single purchase only or single purchase without much overpriced dlc, no internet connection required to play, 35€/$ mark, steam only games What are my top games: Divinity OS 2, Pathfinder Kingmaker, Thea 2 The Shattering, Atelier Ryza, Lulua and Ayesha, Mages of Mystralia, Bard's Tale IV, Nine Parchments, The Witcher 3, Monster Boy and Cursed Kingdom, Tangledeep, Kynseed, Ghost of a Tale, La Mulana 2, Trine series, Neverwinter Nights duology honorable mentions: Minoria, Book of Demons, Children of Morta, Deadfire, Shadwen, Octopath, Amalur... What I'm not after: crpgs, yeah I know I have few crpgs on my list, but that's just because they are good games, not because I crave for old skul games my public profile: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198254045418/ https://store.steampowered.com/curator/33102093/ - Picky Gamer Girl!

213374U Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I sincerely hope you're stumped rather than stomped. I think Steam made it so owned games information is not freely available so they can sell that data instead of giving it away to everyone. Meaning that posting your profile doesn't do much. In any case, Dragon Age Origins and the Mass Effects seem missing from your mentions. Those would be the obvious starting suggestions, and they should be dirt cheap by now as well. For platformers, 20xx is a roguelike platformer that's an obvious ripoff of Megaman, so that may or may not be up your alley. It's coop, so it has that going for it too. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

melkathi Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Your Steam profile works fine for me. You could play some of those games you have hardly touched. Also, why do you not own Deathspank? Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Opera it works. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have considered buying disco, but lack of combat and non fantasy setting is no-go for me. Hollow knight... I might get that, but thing is... I think it's too hard for me... La Mulana for example overstayed her welcome. https://store.steampowered.com/curator/33102093/ - Picky Gamer Girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollow knight... I might get that, but thing is... I think it's too hard for me... La Mulana for example overstayed her welcome. Might be a slight spoiler, but Disco is a non-fantasy setting to an extent. There are certain paranormal elements to the setting and there's especially a lot of oneiric or surreal influence to all of it. All in all the feel isn't specifically realist or grounded, is what I mean. You might still want to give it a try!

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wormerine Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) As platformers go: I see you have Celeste, though with suspiciously low hour count. If that is something you enjoyed, you can't go wrong with good old SuperMeatBoy. On a less manually demanding front: Rayman: Origins and Raymen: Legends two superbly enjoyable games - the latter does come with Ubi-thingy and has some online components. Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove - don't recall seeing that in your list. A superb and content rich game. Freedom Planet: I recently played 2 supposively good Sonic games, and I thought they were terrible. Freedom Planet was like Sonic but good. Mark of the Ninja - superb 2d stealth game. More unusual but still: Snake Pass - an original and super enjoyable platformer. Played with with keyboard and mouse, but controller recommended. Not too long, but very novel. Played through Hollow Knight recently and I thought it was superb. It's combat is very deliberate, but quite simple, and if you don't go for 100% and optional hard bosses, it should be too hard. You do get bang for you buck. Spelunky. Excellent roguelite, and a replayable platformer. Steep learning curve. RPG:Fallout New Vegas- must play RPG. Other: I wouldn't be me, if I didn't recomment Supergiant Games - Bastion is a classic, Pyre is the weird one and my favourite. Transistor is pretty, but not as engaging.
