I’m really bored, and I have nothing much to do so here’s a pick list of good stuff.
All amounts are in US dollars.
Monster Hunter World - $19.79 - Want to beat up dinosaurs with a weapon twice as big as you? MHW has you covered. Also you have a cat companion named a Palico who are the cutest motherfuckers ever.
Risk of Rain 2 - $15.99 - Fun Rougelike that doesn’t hold back on the ~numbers go up~ gameplay and things get really chaotic after a while. Still in Early Access.
The Outer Wilds - $16.65 - Very satisfying exploration puzzle game IN SPACE! It feels really good when you figure things out yourself, hold off on a guide as much as you can.
Hades - $19.99 - Rougelike made by Supergiant (the people that made Bastion and Transistor). Great art style, and soundtrack is par for the course for them. Still in Early Access.
Subnautica - $16.24 - If space isn’t your thing, you can explore underwater instead. Less puzzlely than The Outer Wilds, but still very fun, and you can build your own sub. ~Giant Sea Monsters are included~
Plague Tale Innocence - $15.29 – A story driven adventure game that plays like the newer Lara Croft games. Does have a small annoying child character, but escorting him isn’t too bad. Social distancing is being enforced by rats.
Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom - $17.99 – JRPG/city builder/RTS game that looks like a Studio Ghibli film.
Void Bastards - $17.99 – Space rougelike that has a System Shock 2 vibe. Has the Stanley Parable voice actor berate you as you die a lot.
Zero Escape Trilogy - $15.98 - Less of a “it’s good” recommendation, and more of “This sure is a story with writing” that will keep you saying “What?” a lot. ~Contains massive amounts of anime~
Spyro Reignited Trilogy - $19.99 – If you were a Sony kid and were waiting for this to be on sale. It’s half off now. I was a Nintendo kid, but the other Sony kids say this remake is very good.
Hitman - $11.75 Hitman 2 - $17.95 – Goofy stealth assassination game. Take a straight faced, no nonsense man, dress him in a clown outfit, to do Wile E Coyote levels of murder.
Resident Evil 2 Remake - $19.99 – A really good remake of the original if you want to be chased around by a big stompy lad and shoot zombos.
Jackbox Party Pack 3 - $16.24 – Has Tee K. O., one of the best Jack games. You make funny dumbass shirts that you can buy.
Hypnospace Outlaw -$14.99 – One of the funniest games I played. A good look into the early days of the internet.
Journey - $11.24 – Amazing game. If you haven’t played it already or owned a PlayStation, it’s on PC now.
The Witcher 3 GOTY edition - $14.99 – Want more murder hobo Geralt adventures after seeing the show on Netflix? Hope you like 100+ hours of it.
Slay The Spire - $12.49 – Rougelike dungeon card game. Very good if you like deckbuilding. Does have modding, and a googly eyes mod. It’s important that you know this.
Black Mesa - $12.99 –Want to play Half Life but don’t want to invest hundreds of dollars in a VR headset? Black Mesa is a good modern remake of the old original Half Life.
Dark Souls 3 - $14.99 – It’s Dark Souls. You already know what this is. Though check out the Cinder’s Mod if you’re thinking about replaying it. It fixes a lot of issues DS3 has, plus it imports stuff from other souls games.
Return of Obra Dinn - $14.99 – Stylish ghost murder mystery game. It’ll make you think in creative ways and pay attention to detail, or it’ll make you very good at guessing.
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy - $14.99 – Very anime, but also very good. Sometimes the murder cases get very wild. Satire of the Japanese legal system. Seriously. Google the conviction rate in Japan. It’s fucked up.
Baba is You - $11.99 – This game will make you feel dumb. It’s fun, but it will make you feel dumb.
Frostpunk - $11.99 – Post climate collapse simulator city builder. You can tell children to eat sawdust, and work in coal mines.
PC Building Simulator – $11.99 – Nice way to learn the basic process of building a computer without messing up the parts. Don’t forget the thermal paste.
Katana ZERO - $10.04 – Haven’t played this side scroller, hack and slasher, but the speed run of this looks neat!
Donut County - $6.49 – A chill game about making things fall down a hole.
Titanfall 2 - $9.89 – One of the best shooters I’ve played. Like parkour? Like Giant robots? Running around round shooting things, and doing yeehaw cowboy shit? This game is for you.

DOOM (2016) - $5.99 – Also one of the best shooters I’ve played. Set the shotgun standard. Just Rip and Tear.
Gris - $6.79 – A very stylish side scroller platformer. Very good use of colors.
Celeste - $9.99 – You get to beat mental illness by jumping good. Nice soundtrack.
Cities: Skylines - $9.99 – One of the best city planner games out there. Live the dream of having a city without the police.
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate - $7.99 – The last good single player Fallout game out there. Upset Todd Howard and buy this.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag - $6.79 – The only AC game I will recommend, and played myself. You just get a be a pirate that’s just really good at parkour. Plus the ship combat is really fun.

Night in the Woods - $9.99 – Cool slice of life/horror story game. Greg rulez!

FTL: Faster Than Light -$2.49 – Spaceship roguelike. Still very good.
Hotline Miami - $2.49 – Do a fast-paced violence while Synthwave is playing.
Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to) - $3.99 – Having a bad time, and just want to have someone tell you everything is ok? This game is where all the nice anons live. Sometimes you can be the nice anon. Has stickers.
Terraria - $4.99 – Basically 2D Minecraft with much more added on.
Payday 2 - $0.99 – Yup this is a dollar. Does have a mountain of DLC behind it, so heads up. The DLC isn’t mandatory to play and there is a bundle that has the main game w/DLC for like $12. Still a good co-op shooter where you do crimes.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 - $4.99 – You get to be a trucker, deliver things, and obey traffic laws! The real treasure is the real radio stations. Russian radio stations are worth listening to.
Yakuza 0 - $4.99 – You beat the money out of people literally. Has a very good balance of serious crime drama, and dumb goofy bullshit.

Passpartout: The Starving Artist - $ 4.99 – You get to doodle on a canvas and hope that people buy your art while you worry about rent, and slowly dying from a lack of wine/nicotine withdrawal.
