I just can't get excited for Concordia personally. I like the card-based action system, that's pretty cool. But the game feels way too "flat" everytime Ive played it, there isn't any interesting tension or big plays, it kind of just feels like I'm doing things and maybe some things get more points or maybe not, and then it ends. I know Euros in general have that kind of reputation, but even other Mediterranean trading simulators I've played have those moments where a plan all comes together.

Great game! I love that it's full of wheeling and dealing, but that it actively encourages generosity by how the bean planting works. Means everyone gets to be a boisterous bean merchant, but no one feels like they never get any deals or are getting scammed

You could add green for [[Hardened Scales]] et al to get an infinitely large trilobite and infinite colorless mana. One-shotting someone with a huge trilobite seems pretty funny, and green can give you trample enablers to get past pesky blockers. Plus this gives redundancy, as you won't need the cost reducers. Or you could drop the reducers entirely, as there's quite a few cards that do what hardened Scales does

Still the greatest Roguelike IMO, the variety and unlockables are through the roof, and while RNG is a big part anything can still be overcome with enough raw skill

Dang that looks good! I love contrast in general, really made painting a lot more fun for me

Horizontal, I have my games to play with, not for decoration. I don't mind a little scuffing or denting of the box, and it never damages it so much that the box doesn't function as a box. And then the upside is I don't have to reorganize everything every single time, and I don't have to keep them packed in there to avoid them falling over

Yeah, they upped it when they made it "World of Assassination" and rolled in the first 2 games + freelancer. It was a free upgrade for those that already owned it, and still worth it imo at that price, but it is very strange that they don't even have a small discount for the summer sale

Man, it's not technically on sale, but it hurts a little to see Hitman Absolution recommended when Hitman 3 exists. Not that absolution is bad, but Hitman 3 is just so much better, both in terms of gameplay, content, and freedom. And you basically get 3 games all remastered, plus a Roguelike mode.

So I guess that's my recommendation, even if it's not on sale still worth it lol

Jealous! I'm finally getting to see my Arkham buddy soon after 2 months, excited to get back into it myself. I wish there was a good Arkham LCG Lemmy to tide between sessions

Oh man I didn't even know Aeons End had a digital app! And it's steam deck verified! I just found what I'm playing on my flight tomorrow, thanks :D

I got the Dead by Daylight killer pack, but beyond that I'm stumped. I'm itching to spend money, but nothing is super calling to me. Maybe No Mans Sky, I love space but I usually don't enjoy grindy "make your own fun" type games

Oh man I forgot about bananagrams! Such a cool and fun word game
