Hearing that Civ 7 is going to have Steam Deck support is tempting me.

    If Civ 7 reviews well and works on Steam Deck, I’ll be tempted.

    I’ve been a patient gamer since buying used NES games as a little kid, but I’ll buy at launch every once in a while. I was a single adult with a full-time job when Mario Maker came out. I took a day off work just to play it nonstop. It was a childhood dream of mine to design and play my own levels and spent my teenage years making ROM hacks with Lunar Magic.

    I still think about how great that day was, staying home all day to play. Sometimes it’s nice to treat yourself.

    In February, kingdom come II is releasing. Excited off my fucking rocker, currently trying to 100% the first before 2 releases!

      Yep, I’m probably not going to wait very long before buying it. I got the first one not long after release and I’ve been looking forward to the sequel ever since! Some of the advanced reviewers are even saying it plays reasonably well on the Steam Deck!

      By the way, the 100% is sometimes frustrating but a great feeling when you get there! It was the first (and only) game I ever took the time to do that with.

    … something Heaven’s Vault related is coming in 2025. I really really hope it’s a video game and not just more novel things. Really hoping something to do with Mazwai!

    If Monster Hunter Wilds plays nice on Steam Deck, I doubt I’ll be able to resist. Otherwise, it’s a small game, but Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 releases next week, and I am hyped. The first HoH is the GOAT roguelite, IMO, and the demo for HoH 2 was very promising.

    There isn’t anything on the horizon I am interested in right now. At least, nothing with a concrete release date. The only thing I can even think of right now is getting Adventure Mode in the Steam version of Dwarf Fortress. And that could come anywhere between tomorrow and a decade from now. It’s been “coming soon” since the game came out on Steam. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Not a game per se, but I’m probably going to get a Switch2 on launch day. I have a Switch Lite, but want to be able to play couch multiplayer with my kids, starting with Mario Kart and some dancing game to get in some activity.

    I have over 700 games waiting on Steam, over 300 on Heroic… I’m not buying any other game until I get that backlog down.

    so… I just started playing Red Dead Online this weekend. On Linux. It works… and it’s fun, I just bought a new horse and finished some missions with random people. Someone killed my horse once, with fire, that was a very sad moment — luckily, I had some insurance.

    I am patiently waiting for Kingdom deliverance to get released and a couple of weeks or months to see what the reviews say about the state of the game. Then I will decide whether to buy it or not.

    Another two games on my radar are RDR 1 and Indiana Jones, Pentiment and Slay the Princes but waiting for better discounts on those.
