Another "holy crap it's July already!"
Thank you for the thread lashman !!
Kind of "quiet" month for me, but I still have to the end of the Steam sale to buy something I will not play.... or more probably something "old" to replay instead of playing a new game...
But it needs something a little more GPU/CPU heavy. I'm going through Saints Row 3 Remaster now and it's not making my PC do it's heater thing... and yes it's kind of cold for our standards right now (9C). Some of us live in the "bottom" of the globe

It can't be july yet. How is 2021 almost as lost as 2020 amd we're only just over half way through?
Well I guess I need to double down and buy something in the steam sale

Wow, it's July already. I barely played anything in July, let alone finished one.
Great work on the thread as always lashman , I'm just kinda surprised that the first recommendation is an anime game.

Great thread as always lashman appreciate all the work.
I can't believe we are already half way through the year (thought I would shake things up a little).
Anyway, looking at the monthly releases I will be keeping an eye on Ys 9 (really should play some of the earlier titles I suppose), Orcs Must Die 3 (loved the first 2 games) and Cris Tales (looks absolutely beautiful).
I would be tempted with Monster Hunter Stories 2, but knowing it is a sequel and seems to be continuing on from the first game (which I haven't played) puts me off.

Considering how fast time flies already, it feels like it will be over in an instant. Only two months left of real summer.
Ys it already July? Whew.

As always, lashman the master of threads.
I'd like God of War to be confirmed this month on PC. Enough time has passed since Days Gone, time to announce what's next.

No PC LE, though...
THE PHYSICAL CE COMES WITH A GOODSMILE AIBA FIGURE BRUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
One cannot skip the introduction scene in Bug Fables. That would be okay if the game did not get locked during the tutorial at a point where one has a choice between 2 actions (heal or boomerang attack).
I have chosen the boomerang attack twice, with the same result.
I think it is because there is no actual choice and we are supposed to heal the character before performing the boomerang attack.
Third attempt with the heal first: same result.
Next attempt (the fourth time watching the intro): skip the tutorial.
Edit: Same issue if I skip the tutorial and only perform basic attacks.
Windows Store with GamePass keeps on giving troubles! xCloud is the best solution to avoid dealing with the Windows Store!

GamePass...
I am a long-time-player who rarely finishes games :>
I never play games that are under 5 to 10 hours
My bread and butter are games Like Rimworld, Civilization, Battletech(modded), X3APLU, Mount & Blade, Aurora 4X, Stellaris, EUIV, HOI4, CK3, Minecraft modded, long RPG's, etc. I play them for decades.
I may start a game for a few hours and finish it a few months or years later, at that time it probably isn't on Gamepass anymore. And something like CK3 I could never play on Gamepass because I know that I will play that game for years.

Donut County is a fun game. It was too expensive though on launch, if i remember rightly it is only about 4 hours long and that was maybe an hour longer than it should be. Story was fun and light hearted though and the Katamari style gameplay was fun. Like Carrion though it is a perfect Game Pass game.To summarize my recent game discoveries with GamePass:

xCloud solved my issue with Bug Fables' soft-lock.
Yes, it is very relaxing. And perfect for GamePass!
July so far is kinda nice, the first week of it is projected t have temperatures below 30 consistently. That's still hot, but at least actually bearable.
Great OP, lashman some great games there that fell of my radar actually.
