What's your dream giveaway?

for a jrpg with early 1990's graphics it seems better at delivering the berserk atmosphere than the actual berserk hack and slash game publish by koei tecmo. Should've grabbed it when the franchise went on sale last haloween, now they skipped holiday sales lol! better luck next time I guess :)

thanks! I hope one day... :)

hot wheels has such a special place in my heart.
im amazed there hasnt been a bunch of starfield giveaways (steam ratings aside), it seems so wanted but so bashed. a funny dilemma.

horizon zero dawn seems like a mutual want.
the other games you have stated would make good giveaways!

have a fantastic new year man 🍻

TY for pointing that out! I entered.

I'm confused, is there a giveaway for it? 😅

Fantasy mostly. D&D style I guess, trolls, ogres, magic etc. I haven't done much in a while. I used to pump out fanfic to keep myself sharp between some very short stories. I did one Unreal but mostly DBZ and Godzilla.

Thanks! Well, you probably haven't heard of it because Visual Novels aren't really a genre that gets promoted often. In fact, I only got.into them recently after snubbing them for years since the ones that were usually promoted were often predominantly romance ones, which I really disliked as an idea. But there are a ton of VNs of other subgenres with a strong emphasis on emotionally gripping, out of the box narrative amd freedom of choices. Fata Morgana is one of them, and one of the most highly regarded VNs in general

Definitely! :D Sorry if this ends up a bit long; I can get a lil too chatty sometimes when explaining things, haha

The first Telltale game I ever experienced was The Walking Dead back in 2012, and it's the first game I remember character deaths leaving me in full-blown tears. I remember the ending so vividly even now because it was so heart-wrenching having to say goodbye to these characters I had grown so attached to (little did I know at the time, the series would continue for five more games 😆).

Since it was one of those 'your choices matter', heavily story-based games, I watched a million different people play through the game after that. I watched it so many times that at some point, I could quote certain chapters line-for-line.

Can't do that anymore, haha, but it also had a really long-lasting impact on the kinds of games I played.

Besides keeping up with every new Telltale title, I proceeded to play The Last of Us, Undertale, Heavy Rain, Detroit: Become Human - all of which have a pretty heavy focus on story elements. I even have a Last of Us tattoo :)

tl;dr I had never experienced that kind of emotional impact from a game before The Walking Dead and as a result, Telltale really transformed my gaming experience and how I look at games. Even though the company has changed a lot since then, I think they'll always hold a special place in my heart 💜💜

It sure is an odd title for a game. But it also looks like an odd, unique and experiemental game. And I tend to like such games.

It also reminds me of another game I enjoyed, Black Closet. There you have your "minions" you send on missions as the student council president, to prevent scandals in a prestigious boarding school. The gameplay is assigning who will take what missions, then stat checks and dice rolls, and some randomness to it, but there is also an overarching narrative.

As for Persona 3 or 4, I loved both, so it's hard to pick a favorite. 3 is much darker in tone, and maybe a better overall narrative, while 4 is more "fun", upbeat, and has the better cast of characters. Gameplay has gotten better in each entry though, and the original persona 3 by now is probably a bit outdated in terms of gameplay, so I'd probably wait for the reload. And you can play them out of order, so can easily start with 5 or 4.

Yeah I think steam would give a similar key as your cd as well after buying the game, then you had to create an account in-game and enter this key to play online. So that's not a key for steam, unfortunately. I don't think steam keys for Blur existed, there are only some very rare gifts left.
