I thought it was just going to be a 2D walking simulator but you unlock abilities and solve puzzles which help keeps you entertained as you progress. The art and the music is top notch,

The SteamWorld games are probably the best original indies of this generation but I hardly ever see anyone talking about them, it's a drat shame

Oh yeah Steam World Dig 2 kicks rear end, I wish it were longer though. It's not "too short" it's just fun enough that I was still left wanting more

Just going through the downloadable games was fun. I purchased the following games: Yoku’s Instant Express (I played the demo and this game is awesome) Monopoly (my wife loves playing this game) South Park the Stick of Truth (I have always heard this game is fun but I have not had a game system since I purchased the WII in 2006). But I added the following games to my wishlist: Hollow Knight Hello Neighbor God Doodle Gris (I agree that this game looks beautiful) Fitness Boxing Mars Explorer (I cannot remember the actual name but this game comes out next week and it looks like a lot of fun) Also, I know that you earn gold coins for purchasing games which then becomes a penny per coin discount. Is there anything that is worth it for the platinum coins you get doing random stuff on their website (besides wallpapers, online game guides and software for the Wii U or 3DS)?

It's rogue legacy with better graphics. And rogue legacy is a huge turd, and not a cool one like Binding of Isaac

I can understand criticism of Dead Cells but please do not compare it to Rogue Legacy, which is simply horrid.

Freeze in general and the freeze hadouken in particular are being nerfed in the next update. There's a lot of good rebalancing and qol changes coming in the update, and I respect the devs for their communication and responsiveness to their fans. I can see why the permanent upgrades mechanic and procgen maps would turn some people off. Tbh I don't play dead cells much anymore and I'm just waiting for the update to dive back in but I enjoyed the game for a little while. Rogue legacy was indeed terrible imo

I'm waiting for a boss rebalance before I dive back in They've definitely listened to feedback though which i appreciate. They made the boring overlong later levels like the pirate wharf shorter, and i think they're starting(?) to address the idiotic level scaling stuff

will the update fix health regen? there’s a few health regen abilities that give you small numbers that don’t scale at all past the first zone at best.

Thinking about getting Xenoblade 2 with my Christmas money, is it worth it? Never played Xenoblade 1 but I know I should... I liked most of Xenoblade x but the postgame stuff kind of broke my brain

I loved it and I didn't like XBC1 or XBCX but it's a polarizing game, some people really really hated it. The first few hours are a slog but combat is great once all the systems open up

I wouldnt call it a slog since like any good JRPG it takes 5 - 10 hours to even figure out what the narrative is going to be

I also love it, insanely hosed up looking blade designs aside. theyve also added a lot since I played it, both free and with that standalone expansion.
