Excuse me while I kiss the sky.
Metro 2033 Redux and Everything is free on the Epic Games Store. (As in there's a game called 'Everything', not everything is free....)
Minit is up next week.

It's interesting, picked it up when it went up, but I bounced pretty hard after about a dozen goes. Probably worth checking the wiki/walkthrough assuming it has one.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.
It is not a bad game but you have to beat it in one or two sittings because there are a dozen little things that affect your route and you'll forget all about them very quickly.

Surviving Mars is free now on Epic Game Store.

Adding to this, the following DLCs are also free:

- Mysteries Resupply

- Space Race

Be aware that they're not directly included with Surviving Mars - you have to "purchase" each one. And since EGS still doesn't have a cart, you have to do each one separately :v: Still worth the clicks!

Next week is Observer and Alan Wake's: American Nightmare.

Do note that is only the basic game. There's literally a dozen major expansions that will all cost money and they all are important in their own way (though some more than others).

That said, the base game is still an incredible and unique experience that you owe it to yourself to try if you haven't.

Also, look up a current YouTube tutorial because unless something has changed recently the in game one was never updated for mechanical changes and is worse than useless.

yeah if you are looking for help on CK2 the first stop should be the SA thread: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3874093

the OP has up to date information on the values and effects of the various expansions, and the posters there have been playing for a very long time and generally have a lot of knowledge about the state of things and how things have changed over the years.

I think it’s fine, I’m still completely confused about pressing claims, but I managed to broker a peace between my brothers long enough that we had a crack at the Muslims. Best played as a kind of medieval sims, IMO.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
I think they fixed it up at one point to stop you getting stuck when it required you to click a button that had been patched out, but yeah YouTube tutorials are probably the best option.

The usual advice is to pick a petty kingdom in southern Ireland in the 1066 start date, since you can basically fart around for ages learning the ropes before anyone will bother you.

If any of you got on the Crusader Kings II train, you can now go to this address https://www.crusaderkings.com/ and sign up for a newsletter about the sequel in works. You'll receive a free copy of the Old Gods DLC for CK II. It's a good one, you get to play as a tribal person, you can sail around with your mans to do viking boat crimes, and also sacrifice captured enemies to pagan gods.

Nuclear Throne rules but I feel like everyone who would play it already has it from all the sales/free copies the devs gave out.

If you don’t have it, though, it’s a must-get.

Last weeks free game, Dauntless, is it basically Epic's Monster Hunter? The art looks precisely like Fortnite.

I've been working through Q.U.B.E. 2. It's gorgeous and a decent puzzler like Portal 2 but without the solutions being quite as obvious.

and then rotation got involved. oof i was feeling smart until pillars with multiple rotation points got involved.

The Messenger and Battle Breakers are now free on the Epic Game Store.

Battle Breakers seems to be a mobile port of a gem matching rpg. The Messenger is a super fun retro side scroller very reminiscent of NES Ninja Gaiden games. Definitely check it out if you liked Shovel Knight.
