At least Into the Breach is pretty good.

Ugh, I let my most experienced pilot get killed when the train I was suppose to protect ran into him. :mad:

Side note, but Steam is currently advertising a free permanent copy of Crusader Kings II if you pick it up before tomorrow.

Thanks! Didn't see this one.

I've ended up with tons of these free games on Steam and Humble Bundle that I rarely play. I must have more free games than ones I've paid for by now.

Chrono Trigger's out on Steam? Neat, that's.... oh, it's of the mobile port?

.... ****ing why?
I was so f***ing mad when I saw that... I played Chrono Cross a ton and I've wanted to play Trigger, but can't find a hard copy anywhere for a reasonable price.

Pillars of Eternity II launches soon, and I know some on here were pretty excited for it.

I was interested in the first one but never got around to picking it up. I will admit, though, as soon as I saw a ship in this one my interest level skyrocketed. :laugh:


I'm wondering if skipping the first one will cause any plot issues to arise....

From what little I've looked into it I suspect the relationship between games will be a lot like the one between Balders Gate 1 and 2. Probably good to have but you can still get into the game without it.

A bit of a side note, but the biggest curator on Steam, TotalBiscuit, announced his retirement this week due to health concerns.

I of course wish him all the best and am saddened as I really enjoyed his content and personality.

For the purposes of this thread, I'm wondering if that will have a big impact on the Steam curation system which was already, at least IMO, inadequate. Without TB trying to drag it along it'll be worse I'm sure. For awhile there, he was really trying to make that work.

The cancer not only came back with a vengeance, but it spread to his spine. Apparently he tried to get into a clinical trial to see if something more can be done, but he couldn't because of liver damage. He's basically lost all his options. At this point, he will be be spending as much time with his family as he can. :(

Yeah, I don't blame him one bit. Guy's had a lot of ups and downs over the past couple years.

I guess he's still doing his podcast which is great, but the critique days are over while he focuses on health and family.
