I had to spend less time playing games this week, but I've managed to make a review on Pathologic 2 before the end of this year and current Steam sale. Here are my thoughts about this unique game:
It's not perfect, extremely hard to get into, but I loved it. There was nothing like this released this year and I doubt we'll see anything like this in the near future. Game bombed kinda hard and critics mostly gave it shit scores, so yeah, it kinda repeated the story of the original game. Btw it's currently on sale:

Huh, SVGA remasters back in the day were a real deal 
(too bad that Piko don't know about them lol)

who is familiar enough to answer a question?
so i finally beat the charred visage boss and got a thimble fill with oil........i returned it to the quest giver and got a frozen olive but ive read a cave is supposed to be unlocked and when i go to the cave there is nothing.....im not sure what i did wrong

I like the cleaner look in the 2nd image.Huh, SVGA remasters back in the day were a real deal
Iirc the quest giver will only be alive (and open the cave) if the charred visage boss is the first one to be defeated. But there's supposedly a different way into the cave later on, that quest would have just been a shortcut (I also "failed" it, heh).
oh ok that sucks. yah visage was the second boss i defeated. ill keep on playing on
...then I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much.
You clearly want other things out of these games, but I can't agree that it's better for a game like this to keep you weak throughout -- to me, that's a horror game, which is a different genre (and one I dislike).

HOLY SHIT, FINALLY!!! and it's a really good cover too!
also - buy the game, it's awesome! (and made by Chris Seavor and gang)
Tangle Tower is lovely, y'all should give Detective Grimoire a play before going into it IMO
I'm trying real hard not to add another +1 to those impressive Witcher 3 numbers. The Netflix series has left me really wanting to do a third playthrough, and this time with an actual New Game Plus available. A little scared of all the hours that would require.... but then I start thinking about the mods I never tried... the higher settings I would be able to run today.... tough call
Also, finally a daily quest that doesn't require one to have... friends (or a secondary account that I'm using for that).

Steam really does not like me today.
It's not my fault that the one thing I wanted was taken off sale.

as long as the adulting comes last you are doing pretty good
Truth be told I also dislike horror games so that's not what I'm looking for in games like Prey or Deus Ex.
I don't want to remain weak, I want a RPG system that is consistent with the world and the 'realistic' limitations characters should/must have, in order to improve in whatever role I set for my character. Does it make sense that you can be a master hacker + master gunman + master psychic + whatever else at the same time? What's the point of having multiple branching skill trees if you can max out all of them by the (near) endgame?
I respect your opinion and I'm happy you've found joy in the game but it's undeniable that the RPG systems of most, or all, modern Immersive Sims, which is core for this genre of games, is flawed.

Ubisoft's intention to migrate fully to their own store was pretty clear from the start. I don't think EGS has any bearing on that, they just took their money on top knowing full well that most of the sales would be from Uplay instead, which most people had been using already as it was required in their Steam releases too. Whether they will stick with their original intent or eventually go back to Steam like Bethesda/EA/Microsoft did remains to be seen. Even if The Division 2 does go Steam, it could be just an exception in an effort to save a specific game from its death, maybe alongside a move to a f2p scheme like Destiny 2. Regardless it's too early for them to backpedal and go back to Steam as a whole, they'll probably stick with the plan for a few years at least to make sure.

I haven't been posting for a while, Scarlet Grace is keeping me busy. I haven't even buy any games since Christmas Day. 
Maybe I'll do some of these quests if I feel like it.

I wish Valve would change the store pages to have the new cover format
The Witcher 3 is old and 70% off, how many copies does it need to sell to reach the revenue of one RDR2 copy, lol? Edit: 5.3 copies in this part of euroland.
It's very complex to calculate due to regional pricing, but US/EU ~3x. would be needed to beat RDR2.
Both are doing well surely
So I just started Dragon Star Varnir, 5 minutes in and anime tits already on display. Never change, Compile Heart.
Please.
Please.
I've never noticed that you avatar blinks, what the fuck.
Finished watching The Witcher netflix series. I need moar!
edit: oh, well. I can start playing Witcher 2

Last games I'm gonna buy this sale.
So, as well as them I picked up-
Kingdom Come: Deliverance,
Maximum Action,
Hatred,
Super Galaxy Squadron EX Turbo,
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2,
Blasphemous,
Remnant: From The Ashes
here (or at least this is what I use)
Ya, no worries, if it releases it will be an stealth release, and it's 76 days away, so...
Without getting too much into spoiler territory, given the story context of Prey I don't find it immersion-breaking for the player character to eventually end up powerful beyond normal human limitations. Also, I think you are overstating the case a bit -- I did quite a completionist playthorugh of Prey, and even so I was far from mastering all the trees.
We tried that. Some were good, but others were totally out of sync with the music. It's impossible to know which ones are good and which aren't before playing them.
I need more Beat Saber in my life, this game is a masterpiece.
My arms were not ready for Beat Saber. They are weak and flabby. Send help.
Do what i do
Sync wishlist to gg.deals
Set price to historical lowest
arrange by lowest price OR highest discount
Get only those and save the rest for the next sale.
Oh I was referring to what to play next. I already bought some games but can't decide what to play. But thanks for the tips!
