Are you likely to join the event?
The Great Ace Attorney released today so I'm going to be playing that atm, it depends on me being done with the game before the event starts. It also depends on whether or not I'm interested in the game that gets picked. I don't know if that counts as an entry but take it as an interest.

Thank you, I waited for it for 5 years!!! I'm a super duper mega Ace Attorney fan so this was a no-brainer preorder for me.

If I participate...
HuniePop 2: Double Date with 13 hours. Savior looks like it's the ending achievement.
The Walking Dead: A New Frontier with 8 hours
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd love to participate but I do not know yet if I'll be able to, depending on the days it takes place. I'm gonna be away from home between 5 and 11 August, so I won't be able to play anything then.
A few games I thought of playing:
Tell Me Why - 9,5h
Batman: The Enemy Within - 10h
Wolfenstein: The New Order - 11,5h
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood - 6h
Doom - 11,5h

I would like to participate in the event, if I won't end up in your blacklist again.
2 games to play:
Syberia 3 - Achievements / HLTB: 12h
A Plague Tale: Innocence - Achievements / HLTB: 10½h
or
1 game:
Hades - Achievements / HLTB: 21h - finished. End achievement - The Family Secret
And for suggestions, tbh, I don't know. You've already had the best idea - to use the community wishlist.

These are kinda subject to change a little bit depending on when the event ends up starting (and if I can find more suitable options) but consider me on board like last time. ^_^
Deleveled - 7.5 hours
99 Spirits - 13 hours
Edit:
Since I swaped Deleveled for Particle Fleet, here are the links again for easy access in one spot:. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a SG win though, and I plan on 100%-ing both games in that time frame. >.<
Well, if that's not enough to convince you, I guess I could switch Deleveled for... Particle Fleet (9.5 hours)? ...That one doesn't really have more votes on HLTB... I guess the games I play tend to be not too popular. :/
(As a... less desirable backup backup I could also do Sunrider: Liberation Day. It's also 9.5 hours and has a few extra votes. ^_^' )
PS: If you make a vote for which games to giveaway, may I suggest a multiple choice vote (so, somewhere outside of SG)? Aka, ask people to vote for all the games in the list which they are interested in rather than picking just one. Then the most desired games will have the highest % of people who voted for them.
Comment has been collapsed.
Main story is the rule, 100% is optional.
The problem was that it barely hits 20hours (which is the minimum playtime I'm requiring) with the two original choices.
I'm happy to accept Particle Fleet or Sunrider: LD as your secondary game.
EDIT: AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I USE MAIN GAME AVERAGE AS THE MINIMUM, (and why low poll numbers are inaccurate) - Particle Fleet average was 9.5 hours, and you end up 100%ing it in 8.5 hours.

I'm interested so far, but will depend on GA, I guess
Ys I & II Chronicles+ 13.5h 🏆 / Republique 10.5h 🏆
+
The Whispered World 10.5h 🏆 / Mages of Mystralia 8.5h 🏆
ps. I know Republique + Mages won't do, I just hope that Ys has a normal controller support
edit:
1) Ys I 🏆 ("De-Fact-o" achievement) & Ys II 🏆 ("Darm It!" achievement)
2) TBA

I would like to participate :) Mostly because I want additional motivation to clear some games from my backlog xD
Edited because read rules again xD
Wolfenstein: The New Order - 11,5h, HLTB
Bombshell - 10h, HLTB
And if they seems too short I will replace them with this one:
Phantom Doctrine, achievements

Is there some prize or something? You explain the rules and restrictions but I’m not sure what this event is.
Comment has been collapsed.
This event is for entrance into a giveaway for (Game TBA)
It will be a (likely) highly wishlisted, non-bundled game or games (depends on the price). Sort of like cjcomplex's Monthy in a Month
Have edited my main post now to make this a bit clearer.

Oh cool! Thanks that makes sense, I'm definitely interested! I won his giveaway last month for It Takes Two but beating six games was really a task because I didn't choose short games lol.
My submissions would be Supraland | 13 hours | 12.8h played (that HLTB of 13h was pretty spot on), with the final achievement being Win! Towards the end this game relied heavily on colors, especially with the final boss fight, and I'm red/green colorblind and there was no colorblind mode so I had to look up how to do it >.<
And Opus Magnum | 20.7 hours | 0h played, final achievement: The Way of the Alchemist
This is my new favorite puzzle game EVER!! There is not one particular solution but you have tools and give programmed instructions and there are no limitations on how you solve the puzzle so you can make a super convoluted solution that works just to get it done or you can try to streamline it for speed, size, or cost, and there are some CRAZY solutions for each of those metrics. I am so so so excited about this game and am so glad I played it, I will definitely end up replaying it probably multiple times because it's so addicting to try and make your machine just a bit faster or just a bit smaller.

Forgot to list my prospective games.
Batman: The Enemy Within - HLTB 10 hours / Achievements / 0h time
Wolfenstein: The New Order - HLTB 11.5 hours / Achievements / 0h time
Pyre - HLTB 11 hours / Achievements / 3.1h idle time
Batman: Arkham Asylum - HLTB 11 hours / Achievements / 1.4h idle time
Marvel's Avengers - HLTB 11.5 hours / Achievements / 4.1h idle time
In Avengers I did open the game to claim some limited-time freebies in the in-game shop. If you exclude it, I understand your decision.
I ended up completing:
Marvel's Avengers - Achievements ("New Girl Makes Good" is the final storyline achievement to finish the main "Reassemble" campaign) Screenshot
Beaten in about 13-14 hours, with some extra playtime to experiment with the "endgame" missions during 4x XP bonus period.
I can often find it hard to articulate my thoughts on a game, but it feels particularly difficult with Avengers. The whole package feels like something that could have been amazing but was hampered by insistences on having a "live service" post-campaign gameplay loop.
Unfortunately, I never quite got the hang of the combat; there is definitely depth there, but all the abilities, gear, skill points and mechanics mesh together to create unnecessary layers of complexity. Gear in particular feels like a convoluted, unsatisfying mess where the majority of gear doesn't really feel different and gives unsatisfying bonuses, embodying some of the worst tendencies of big-budget "AAA" game design in games with stats and RPG elements. That system in particular could use a major overhaul. It feels like having a big cast of diverse heroes goes over more smoothly in a more narrowly tailored game like Marvel Heroes, where the isometric camera can help keep things grounded. I don't really mind the relative lack of "iconic" Marvel locations and villains, but I do wish the gameplay maps and objectives that are present had more variation and dynamic elements.
At its heart, Kamala Khan's story is about a kid who wants to be like her heroes, which is done well and a suitable theme for a superhero ensemble game. It has its share of cheesy platitudes and cliches, but it mostly comes with the territory in this line of work. The post-launch story campaigns seem interesting, but probably something where I would want to get some friends to join me.
Batman: The Enemy Within - Achievements
Took about 9 hours.
Some of the efforts to make the gameplay feel more involved, like adding more button prompts with increased complexity, could feel annoying. But overall, I feel both Telltale Batman games are solid and The Enemy Within is probably in the top 5 of the studio's best games. Like its predecessor, The Enemy Within tends to pay off more story beats early on than you would expect from most Telltale works, but raises the stakes quickly to follow up. The writers also deftly weaved in the moral questions and quandaries that define Batman's philosophy and personal crusade.
I've said it a few times before, but I'm not as concerned about the "in Telltale games your choices don't really matter!" argument, because in the game's most tense moments I really do buy in and feel like I'm making serious decisions with consequences. I have a couple I want to take back, but it looks like the series is on ice for a long while anyway.

I would definitely like to join! Challenges to the backlog are always appreciated. :)
Suggestions: I already +1'd Return of the Obra Dinn and Nanotale: Typing Chronicles. My third suggestion would be Loop Hero, available from both Humble and Fanatical.
I'll start with these two games if they're acceptable, maybe add some backup choices tomorrow when I'm not so tired.
edit: Added a new shorter game and several backups.
Game | HLTB | Completion Achievement | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Yooka-Laylee | 15 hours | OUT OF BUSINESS | Primary long game |
(Too short) | |||
Ittle Dew 2+ | 6 hours | I Feel a Raft | Primary shorter game |
The Dark Eye: Memoria | 8.5 hours | Chapter Eight Complete | Backup shorter game |
Alwa's Awakening | 8 hours | Alwa's Awakening? | Backup shorter game |
Pyre | 11 hours | True Freedom | Backup shorter game |
And if I get tired of all those games, I might unwind with Spiritfarer since that's one of the prizes.

I will play:
The Pillars of the Earth | HTLB | Achievements
Together with one of these games:
Batman: The Enemy Within | HTLB | Achievements
Battle Chef Brigade | HTLB | Achievements
The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav | HTLB | Achievements

Thank you for your replay and sorry for my mistake.
Then I would play one of the games above together with:
The Pillars of the Earth | HTLB | Achievements

Would this be okay?

Yeah I'm planning to do chaos child which is classed as 32 hours. Considering chaos head is classed as 24 hours but im at chapter 7 of 10 5 and a half hours I don't trust that chaos child is true but it could surprise me.
But yeah if I was planning on doing something bigger like witcher for example I know I could focus on that rather then 2 shorter games that barely fit the time just to inch in. Or even do witcher and then have to put aside a couple of hours to put in like a super short game. Theres been mention of how people like to look at everything which I'm certain a part o
Oh I saw the games you posted, like maya I've done both bayonetta and beyond two souls. Great games, still need to go back and complete the "bad" side of beyond two souls

VN time to 100% is so annoying. People just put the game on skip mode and then record that it takes 1 hour or whatever to complete it. Do you happen to know if proper read times are recorded somewhere? Minus having to guess by Steam reviews.
Comment has been collapsed.
No idea, I know sometimes in the discussions people mention a length and I'm there like huh it took me half that time but yeah 10 hours seems fitting for a slow person maybe but thats not something that appears everywhere. With idling as well you cant trust steam reviews as I assume this 1 hour visual novel didn't take a couple of hundred hours but maybe they had to translate every single letter.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ooh, I'd be interested, though it will definitely depend on when the event starts. For the long stuff, I have three games I'd be interested in trying out (and another, shorter game):
Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun | HLTB
Shining Resonance Refrain | HLTB
Sunless Sea | HLTB
Final choice:
Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun | HLTB
Peaky Blinders: Mastermind | HLTB
As for game suggestions, may I suggest
Spiritfarer?

I was just planning to play another of my won games so I'll pick Deus Ex Human Revolution. I guess it'll take more than 20h.
I'm fine with any light and interesting game for suggestions.

Batman: The Telltale Series | 8.2 hours | 30/30 Achievement: A New Day in Gotham | Completed |

Finished Nexomon today. I've had a lot of fun playing it, although it was somewhat easy until the last fights. There is a lot of cool designs of nexomons that I wish i could had a bigger party so i could use more of them. Seems like there is a lot to play in post game, i'll probably try to 100% in the next days xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Completed Batman: The Telltale Series now, great game. I regret some choices i did in this game but maybe if I play it again someday I'll try to remember to choose some other better option. The first 10 minutes had several frame drops as I knew there were when it was released, but after that it runs all good.
Wish i had played this before the sequel. Still don't know why they put the sequel in a lower tier than the first game in an old bundle(that i couldn't pay for all the tiers :/)
Comment has been collapsed.
I think Ill try depending on the event dates a combination of:
The outer worlds 12.5 Hours (done now took me roughly 20hours on hard difficulty)
Thief 11 Hours (done took me around 10 hours~)

Haha hopefully this event starts soon then! Of course I don't mind but I must say my opinions usually boring and of the lines of "I enjoyed it" xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha Im not quite done yet but around 13 hours in enjoying the worlds and the comedy in the narrative. Haven't actually played fall out/mass effect before but heard similar things with comparisons. To get or not to get huehue depending on how much fallout you still have or if you want something new! ;)

Looks like I will wait with another game purchase, having some problems with playing my pick Dungeon rats. So many characters died in pain.. and yet it still haven't persuade me read a tutorial at start. Yesterday I read some guide and basic information about game and from quest list I realized I beated half game in one hour, so no matter, I will get there 😂

Interesting event. I want to participate with State of Mind and Sword Legacy: Omen. Tomb Raider can be the step-game if one of the first two doesn't fit.
