Fanantical's newest bundle is the Build Your Own Ultimate VR Bundle

2 for $9, 4 for $17, 6 for $23

I don't know enough about VR games to know which ones are noteworthy besides Star Trek Bridge Crew. Most titles redeem on Steam, some give an alternate choice of Oculus, and one redeems on Uplay.
 
Nah, that's ok..i was just funnin ya a bit. I might end up buying it, because it looks like my jam. If that's the case, feel free to offer the key to someone else when it finally rolls in
 
Humble Bundle has a Tales of Love & Adventure Bundle.

$1 tier:
Telltale's Tales of Monkey Island

Pay the average:
Telltale Batman Shadows Edition
Neo Cab
Half Past Fate
Reventure

Pay $15.20 (Canadian):
Blacksad
Hiveswap Act 2

Pay $19 (Canadian)
Indivisible

Obviously, prices will be a little less for you American folk. If I didn't already own Monkey Island, Batman, and Reventure I'd be tempted to get this. But of this bundle, I'm only interested in Blacksad, so it's not worth it for me.

Buncha new games on Prime Gaming, for those who have an Amazon Prime subscription:
- Bomber Crew
- Tengami
- Blasphemous
- SkyDrift
- Boomerang Fu

Interestingly, they all have Very Positive ratings on Steam.
 
It's worth mentioning this is part of this year's "Play at Home" initiative from Sony, that it's free to download all month, and that more games will be coming in the future.
Ah, right. They did this last year with the Uncharted collection and Journey. I think Lego Ninjago, too. It hasn't been consistent, so I forgot all about it.

Free Tomb Raider spin-offs, if you jump through hoops:



I haven't gotten a response (comments on Reddit say it's taking over an hour), but comments also say that these come as a single Steam key.
 
Got a PS4 or, by some ungodly luck, a PS5? Sony's doing their free games thing again.

I've only played Subnautica among these games, but I'd say it's definitely worth playing. Though I do hear the console versions are even more poorly optimized than the PC version.

Seems like SquareEnix is having trouble processing all the requests they got:



I still haven't gotten mine, and I made my tweet over 26 hours ago.
 
So, there's currently a Stellaris bundle with a whole lot of expansions and stuff. I know it's been talked about a bunch here, but the overall idea here is that it's good right? I can enjoy the occasional 4X or Grand Strategy game but I've never played any of the Stellaris stuff.
 
My cousin loves that game and it’s the only thing I have ever seen him play on Steam. Ever. I sent him the humble bundle link and he owned it all already.

I tried the game and it looks great, but made no sense to me. I should really try again without a kid on my lap trying to grab the mouse out of my hand. This was a few months ago...
 
I keep thinking of trying it. I love the Civilization series, but I find I don't get as engrossed in other 4X games as I do with Civ. There's never a "just one more turn..." moment.

I know the feeling. I also missed it mostly with Civ 6 - which is why I still tend to go back to 5. It's a bit hit or miss - I definitely had that feeling with some Total Wars, and I bounced right off of some other TWs, for example. And I don't entirely know why.

Oddly enough, Civ 5 never grabbed me, but Civ 6 did. I don't know why.

Because you're wrong and your taste is bad and your opinion sucks.

Or because we all have slightly different approaches, which guide different GUI systems and liking or disliking sometimes very small changes. There's also just huge differences in how people approach things and what they wat out of them. I hardly ever play multiplayer, and I really don't care about being able to beat Deity (I can't). I want to build a nice big empire, explore a vast world, have nice emergent effects. I don't want ot micromanage every tile, unit and city every turn to achieve Optimalization. Some people would say my way of playing is "wrong". I think people who Must Be The Best at all costs are dumbdumbs who have lost track of the fact that they're probably just playing for fun. But hey, if they enjoy the competitiveness, good for them.

I dunno, I wanted to like Civ 6 - I think districts are a neat idea for example. It just never quite clicked.
 
Half "game on sale," half "random video game crap," but...

Genital Jousting going on sale for 69% off never fails to make me laugh.

It's one of those games where the concept is so unbelievably dumb and yet the execution works far better than it has any right to. I've played this through local co-op with some friends over drinks and it's fucking hilarious.

GOG is having their spring sale. There's a whole bunch of course, but they've been nice enough to simply make a list of their deepest discounts. Every game on here is discounted at least 89%. Not much left there over $2, and quite a few decent or good games if you don't have them.
