My haul so far:

R6 Siege Complete

Honestly one of the best purchases I've made and I'm a little upset I waited so long to get it. Finally bought it like a month or so ago (whenever it was 50% off last time), and it's so addicting and fun.

Anyone have Battletech? Thinking about getting it and wanted some opinions.
I very much enjoy it; check out some write up and/or videos on it to see if the game play is to your liking; its turn based combat with a management side. If you are good with that kind of game play, I would definitely recommend

Wow. So you can't buy Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition on Steam anymore. You have to buy the crappy $40 remaster. F*ck you Bandai Namco!

Bought Frostpunk during the Steam summer sale and I LOVE it.

Takes place in an industrial revolution/steampunk setting when a sudden ice age happens. You people flee and start a new colony/city in the frozen waste, with this big ass coal generator in the middle of the city. I played through the first scenario, which took about 5 hours to beat. There are two more scenarios with more coming in the future. Unfortunately there is no sandbox/free build mode at the moment but the devs say there will be one by the end of the year.

Plays like a standard city builder/sim where you have to manage resources, space, and citizens, but with a few hooks.

Soooooo it's a tough call. Once you complete the scenarios there's not really that much else to do. It's a GREAT base game, a little lacking in content though. I would recommend it now for $25, just understand that for the time being it'll take you like 10-15 hours to complete the currently available content and you'll have to wait a little bit to get more. But personally, I think it's worth it because the core gameplay and presentation is amazing.

Thanks for the recommendation. I picked it up and am really enjoying it. I'm not too familiar with the type of game so I've yet to even complete the first scenario yet.

Still haven't bought a single game this sale. Very proud of myself.

I've bought one game so far, but it was Assassin's Creed Odyssey so I'm not counting it. Also very proud of myself :)

I bought Enter The Gungeon with the majority of it coming from my Steam Wallet from selling stuff. A lot of fun, glad that I finally picked it up. The only other thing that I wouldn't mind grabbing if I was comfortable with doing so would be Rainbow Six Siege.

Weird thought, do you think we should have an HF Steam Discord channel?

good idea tbh

EDIT: heres a logo that should better fit discord's avatar scaling, if you wanna use it :)

Well, more people to play with the better haha.

I'm a tad low on funds currently, otherwise I would have already done it honestly.
Plus there are a few other things I wouldn't mind grabbing from the sale if I could x.x
