as someone who is few hours away from 100% it i can say that its a WILDLY overrated game, in the first hours of playthrough it seemed amazing and near perfect but as the time went on the story and gameplay just left a weird aftertaste. i got it for 50% off and id say it was well worth it but overall it had too much unnecessary stuff and way too unsophisticated story

Thank you.) First ANNO game for me was ANNO 1404 - and I`m Inlove from first look! The look, the sound, the soundtrack, the story - game captured attention.) And there is one mission I like to replay many times - just to rest and relax. Chapter VII: The Man with the Mask

I like ANNO 1800 - because it is Grand! This is defenetly worth and decen.) I love History, Science, Beaty of Victorian Era.
And here is extremely stunning to see how Humankind makes it first steps to the Moon: the Steam Era, Scientific discoveries, Jule's Verne's "Rocket to the Moon" (Hello Doctor Emmeth Brown :)), Fashion, Architecture and many other nice and stunning things. Last Time then humanity has been so perspective, so promising, prosper and without wars...

i can tell :P
your love for them is contagious, making me want to learn a ton more on various historical topics with everything else mentioned (going to for sure).

anything space (and science) related is captivating! i used to view a ton on that subject though dont know so much on astronauts besides the basics the majority knows, that'll give me something extra to do. Jule's Verne's "Rocket to the Moon" isnt one ive seen but a good one to add to the list! fashion has been a big thing to me but not excessively, its nice to see how clothing has changed over the years, trends, past to current models and such though. architecture speaks for itself.

Though seeing more giveaways for games that I want to get is something to consider a dream giveaway, what I would consider a dream giveaway is winning one game on a giveaway that I enter to...its been so long since I last won one that I willbe happy witht whatever I get (If its in my wishlist).

i nod my head in understanding and agreement to you.
keep an eye out for the events others host and the site in general for extra chances! i believe in your luck turning around, 2024 is the year! moving up a level if possible would do wonders too!

Thank you, I will try my best. Lets hope everyones luck turns around with the new year!

Not exactly my dream giveaway (which is currently final fantasy xv, back 4 blood ultimate and cyberpunk 2077+expansion).
But I think the giveaway that I could reasonably request would be clue/cluedo (the 23 Aug 2023 one, not the classic one).
For DLCs that would be: carcassonne, splendor & game of thrones: the digital board game's dlc.
Comment has been collapsed.
i dont hear about dlcs mentioned often, if at all, neat to know Quinn777!
if im not mistaken back 4 blood hasnt been brought up until now? i think you'll still see it given from time to time so i grant you luck on that. final fantasy/cyperpunk is a unanimous want and rightfully so.
Comment has been collapsed.
it seems to be a spin-off narration from the original happenings. I think prequel or sequel, not a direct adaptation.
was unaware of that, neat to know!
this is a super good pick too, i still have to watch gameplay on it. if anyone should have the game, its gotta be you JMM72 😋

factory games is steadily getting brought up, factorio is a new one in the mixture. this thing costs a pretty penny but its rated overwhelmingly positive? im happy for it, also considering the price rose up due to inflation. it does appear like a worthwhile one to play so id love for it to get some attention on this site!
Comment has been collapsed.
Just wanted to point out that the price didn't go up because of inflation.
Wube said a long time ago that the game will never go on sale, so the perfect moment to get it is and will always be "right now" - this was done both to make the choice of buying it easier, and to combat resellers.
The price rose slowly but surely as more content was added. It's still getting updates to this day, with a huge (paid) expansion coming sometime next year (it also adds some QOL for free).
As for the reviews... If you like technical games at all, you'll fall in love with Factorio.
The factory must grow!

i saw something about that but you provided me further details :) smart move on Wube's end

it warms my heart knowing certain games are still getting taken care of even after a long time. the paid expansion is probably generating a ton of hype right now isnt it? 👀

good to know!
i appreciate the reply, Rederdex!

To be fair, I don't even know xD
I'm not really keeping up to date with the game. I just come back every few months and play it for a few weeks straight 😅
It's based on a big mod, similar to how Repentance was done for TBOI - I, for one, am hyped for it for sure ^^

Talking about dream games. I'm waiting for these games to get to a lower price: remake of Resident Evil 4, Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3, Wild Hearts, Darkest Dungeon 2, Ratchet&Clank: Rift Apart, Sea of Stars and probably there are a few more in my wishlist.
I'll get them sooner or later, but there's no rush as quite a lot of games that I have in my backlog wait for completion. Apart from that, which games would you guys recommend? I feel that there are games worth playing that simply went unnoticed and I'd be happy to learn about them.

good luck on the backlog! top tier games you stated, a couple, if not all will weasel their way into giveaways!
I feel that there are games worth playing that simply went unnoticed and I'd be happy to learn about them.
should read what some of the other users have answered, been a huge mix of genres that i think anyone is bound to find at minimum one new title to wishlist and/or purchase at this point!
which games would you guys recommend?
my recommendations to you are Bramble: The Mountain King, Lost Judgement, Nightmare of Decay, The Hong Kong Massacre, CARRION, and Narcosis.

My PC can't play anything AAA sized, so I think my dream game would be one of the more expensive indies that doesn't go on sale often. Caves of Qud, maybe, or Unfolded: Camellia Tales. The ones rare enough or with devs reclusive enough that they don't even get bundled.
There are a lot of games that do go on sale but are still on the expensive side, or are new enough to not have good discounts, or are just so pretty or interesting I'd get excited to see them in a giveaway no matter what. Stray Gods, I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, A Space for the Unbound and so on.

makes complete sense, good call!
Caves of Qud, maybe, or Unfolded: Camellia Tales.
although i dont have any meaningful comment on either of these, i really like how dissimilar they are and how unique your choices are.

i hate how this happens the majority of the time.. pain
Stray Gods, I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, A Space for the Unbound and so on.
A SPACE FOR THE UNBOUNDED IS STUNNING ❣️ you guys know of such jewels for games, having such a fun time getting to know each and every one if i didnt already. this one needs to make its way into giveaways.
im in agreement with stray gods and i was a teenage exocolonist being here too, they are very worthy of it. out of the three im inclined to check out stray gods eventually, its up my alley so ty for the mention.
Comment has been collapsed.
It surprised me when so many friends recommended I Was a Teenage Exocolonist to me after playing it! I'd written it off somewhat as an overambitious project with a silly name, even though I was still following it for news.
I've also had fun reading through the thread and seeing the variety in everyone's responses. Thanks for starting the discussion!

the name caught me off guard lol could understand why you felt that way though its interesting to know you kept up with the news.

awww yay :D
i love questioning people on things and getting to know them so i wanted to do something in that regard! im happy to know users have benefited either in entertainment from everyones combined responses plus interests and/or from discovering new games to try. cant wait to properly view the new replies in the morning :)

Terminator: Resistance
It's such a good game, and I never see it here at all.
Comment has been collapsed.
havent gotten into the jrpg genre much but MONARK is the prettiest looking one i may ever see. i hate how expensive it is but it deserves to be :((((
wouldnt know how likely it is to be bundled but itd be a nice one to show up on humble bundle, or at least fanatical. i salute to you in honor of such a top tier suggestion. it would make an exciting giveaway on here.
Comment has been collapsed.
going to make me cryyyy, im with you on this one, especially with the release date 😭
gta 6 seems to be viewed positively right? at least after additional footage was released? im not a gta person but ive heard bits and pieces on the it (like from moistcritikal, general news and such). i think you'll be in luck when the time comes lol, im not worried!

if you do buy it id love to know what your playthrough is like. ive seen so much art of it on twitter and people hyping up the story, gameplay, characters, and the soundtrack is no exception. i was considering getting it in the past but i changed my mind, if you like it id reconsider again!
regardless i agree on it showing up!

Well, one giveaway I would REALLY love to see here is for UNSIGHTED. This game and it's premise look really cool and it also reminds me a bit of CrossCode, even though they're likely very different games... XD
It has been given away before, but only very rarely, so I would love to participate in another one.
Also, these two games are more recent so I don't expect these anytime soon, but Cassette Beasts and The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood would also be very nice to see. :)

female protagonist :O
dont see many games like that! alma has such an adorable yet powerful design. choices matter plus co-op is a fat bonus on top.
Cassette Beasts
IT GOT MENTIONED!!! ive been hearing how well made the game is from someone i know, the music and bosses in there is really good. had my eye on it a couple times but if i ever see a giveaway on it i rather have someone else win it, could be you next 👀
and The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
visual novel with overwhelmingly positive reviews? sold immediately. there hasnt been a lot of witch games that piqued my interest or offer a whole lot but this one scratches that itch. would be very nice to see indeed!

I won my dream giveaway on Christmas Day. It was Balder's Gate 3. I am extremely thankful to the person who has created it, as currently money isn't doing well and getting such preset for Christmas was an absolute joy!
If I was still to name anymore titles that I am excited for, it probably would be;
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II & S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl

HUH? you're the first person to mention actually winning the game, im in awe. im psyched you got that for christmas, it does make a memorable present. real happy for you, Pareidolistic :)
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl
both you and Mikoy7 want that! would be cute if you two end up winning it.
i like the games you've stated, thumbs up.

You don't even know how my eyes were glistening when I noticed email "SteamGifts - You have won Bal...". I already managed to grind 16 hours over 4 days, game is fantastic!
Can't wait for Stalker, as it was my childhood game, and game has a lot historic elements to Slav culture which I grew up with, was extremely upset when game development was postponed, but for the right reasons.

Happy new year!
The next step is to learn how to obfuscate the giveaway URL, so bots have a harder time entering. You could for example do something like this:
https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/0????/rakuen
???? = (all lower case) father of Bart Simpson and author of Iliad and Odyssey minus "e"
Get creative, but always obfuscate the 5 character code because that's the one bots are looking for.

My wish-list: The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, NieR: Automata, One Way Heroics, FTL: Faster Than Light, Into the Breach.
Mostly JRPG, space, or science fiction theme.

I'm sorry for the confusion. It's delimiter problem. The game names are comma separated.
I meant The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, the first game in the Trails series.

OHHHHHH 😭 i misread it lmao
i was considering hosting one for this yesterday but with tax included it would've been too close a call. had the most awkward leftover amount where i was slightly under the cost constantly for being to fulfill someones suggestion. the ones i could do where pretty limiting.
should be able to do another possibly today? i'll see after i re-tally up everyones submissions. this ones on my radar 📡

• my gift giveaways will be invite only/whitelist/group instead of public
• level restrictions may vary depending on the game given
• time limits may vary by preference (ranging from 1 day to flash giveaways)
a warm thank you to Carenard, WaxWorm, Golwar, antidaz, Phaedra021, aquatorrent, damianea103, IronKnightAquila, and CultofPersonalitea for being there for me during my first giveaway.
and a thank you to the community for enganging with me, you guys are wonderful 💜

my first discussion post!
the idea behind this one is that you guys share what games you'd like to see hosted on steamgifts and maybe they'll pop up!
list as many as you'd like, i'd love to hear them all :D
(plus somebody on here might fulfill your wishes)
feel free to comment more than once if there's new games that cross your mind or that you've found!
go in depth as much or as less as you'd like about what you pick.
when i get the chances i'll host giveaways to give you all opportunities to win your suggested games too.

this has concluded! the winner reached out and i have gifted them the game. please do not harass them, it was an honest mistake.
both them and ecefromhell have received their copies.
