Solved. It indeed is a game and it's fairly obvious if you think about it. Nice puzzle.

Your "hints" are very obtuse and in general not very good, particularly in the first quiz set. I was able to make it through, but still, it was a bit irritating. "Often uses light swords and shields?" Shit man, that could be any fantasy race ever.
edit: I also already have the game, but thanks for the opportunity to find out what it was!

Elves use swords and shields, ditto dwarves, men, orcs, goblins, kobolds, you name it. The first half of that particular hint was fine (and is really all you need), but "uses swords and shields" is practically worthless and doesn't add anything.

Thought I had it with The Maw:Brute Force but no luck :(

I still have no idea what the last part is about. It's probably not the name of a game, but all variants of "a game" or "something from Steam" or "I have no idea" didn't qualify as answers. I brute-forced a hundred of those "logical" answers and none worked.
As I'm writing this, we're up to 66 guesses per solver. This is a guessing game, and it has nothing to do with being obvious or thinking :(

"a steam game", "obviously a steam game", "a game", "a computer game", "a PC game" - none of those work. And there are 2000 actual games on Steam. It's not Fortix, it's not Skyrim, it's not Brutal Legend (brute -> brutal), so there's nothing left to do but guess random stuff.

Add to that "Blood Bowl" (first quiz was about fantasy, second and third about sports so adding it up we have a fantasy sport :P) and Oblivion (I thought about it when reading " It's obviously..." part). Also eXceed Gun Bullet Children - this game is shown on Steam when you'll search for "Preliminary"

Yes, "Blood Bowl" was the logical thing to try, since the puzzles were about fantasy and sports, but alas, it is not the answer. I'm still convinced the answer is not a game name, but a "clever" answer of some sorts (a hundred of which I have already brute-forced).

I got it after being I think like the third person to reach that last question! Finally -tear-~
I don't really think it's a matter of using your brain or not using it though, or not thinking Rather, it's just thinking in a specific way that helps

tried stuff like "bully", "the longest journey" or "beyond good and evil" on the last question. I thought it might fit but apparently it doesn't :( gaaaahhh I'm just going to go to bed and maybe I'll get it tomorrow.
edit: "discounted", "on sale" don't work either. I feel like my ideas are so great but they just aren't right lol
