Hi, my name is ColdBeer and let’s start with
SpellForce 3 Reforced
This is the old good Spellforce 3 but with tons of additional modern upgrades.
Improved RTS and RPG mechanics, reworked faction designs, updated Skilltrees, improved questflow,
improved loot distribution for a smoother progression, reworked crafting, AI balance
overhaul, complete rework of the hub, complete purge of campaign/quest logic issues, Improved
Coop Mode, Improved mods support, full gamepad support and additional modes, like Journey
and Arena.
The game itself is a strange mix of RPG and RTS, kinda reminds me of Rexxar maps from
Warcraft 3 if you are old enough to remember them.
So imagine the whole game made in that image.
It's not a perfect game in any way, it has a lot of issues and it's definitely not Warcraft
3, but this price is more than fair.
Also check out the stand-alone expansions, they are also discounted this week.
The Witness
I hate this game.
The Witness is for smart people with great memory.
And although I like puzzles and all that, by playing it I realized that I’m way dumber
than I imagined.
So, if you would like to test your memory and IQ, this is a great title for you.
Just keep in mind that the results can be a bit disappointing.
My fiancée has a female friend who sometimes comes over to our place to drink beer and
play video games with us and she loves to play The Witness just because she can crack
all of these puzzles and I can’t.
And she’s always laughing at me because of that.
I hate her so much.
I will lie to my fiancée that she is trying to flirt with me.This friendship cannot continue.
And yeah, we play puzzle games for entertainment, we are really fun people, everyone wants to
be friends with us.
DayZ
As developers say this is a hardcore open-world multiplayer survival game with only one rule:
stay alive, no matter what.
I don't know, I don't need a game to follow this rule - I'm staying alive no matter what
in real life as well.
Anyway, in DayZ this task is a bit more difficult - with a myriad of threats lurking around
every corner, that might be easier said than done...
Here you will not find any checkpoints or saves, when you die, you lose everything and
have to start over.
But you will find this dying and starting over thingy quite entertaining because of
complex survival mechanics, including hunting, crafting, building, health preservation, and
resource management.
Also unpredictable and often emotional interactions with other players.
And did I mention zombies?
Yeah, you may encounter some, but you will probably die from a zillion other reasons,
so don’t worry about them so much.
The bad thing is that the game is multiplayer only and as it happens with multiplayer games
you can run into a cheater or two.
Or three.
You know...
And that sucks.
ARK: Survival Evolved
You are stranded naked, freezing and starving on the shores of a mysterious island called
the ARK, you must hunt, harvest resources, craft items, grow crops, research technologies,
and build shelters to withstand the elements.
Use your cunning and resources to kill or tame & breed many different species of dinosaurs,
various bigballsosaurus, smallppraptors and other ancient creatures roaming the land,
and team up or prey on hundreds of other players to survive and dominate!
Speaking about domination, when I was like 10 years old and I was visiting the bathroom
in my friend's house, I was trying to pee as loudly as possible to show his family who
is the alpha male here.
So, domination is in my genes, I hope it is in yours as well.
Price of ARK is great, don’t miss the opportunity.
Dyson Sphere Program
In the distant future, the power of science and technology has ushered a new age of the
human race.
Space and time have become irrelevant thanks to virtual reality.
A new kind of supercomputer has been developed – a machine whose superior artificial intelligence
and computing capability will push humanity even further.
I guess they built it so they could finally invent vodka without a hangover.
Only one problem stands in the way: there isn’t enough energy in the whole planet
to feed this machine.
So you need to construct the Dyson sphere - the thing that engulfs the star itself and
sucks all its energy.
Dyson spheres are really good at sucking.
Who invented them?
Your sister?
Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition
Made with the same Infinity engine as a classic Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale is a more battle-oriented
game.
Here you will find less side quests and less story, but you will enjoy an amazing atmosphere,
because the game is really detailed.
Also the party is entirely player-made, with no other NPC's offering to join in at any
given moment.
Although this is an enhanced edition don't expect anything fancy or modern.
Yeah graphics are improved, quick-loot is implemented, all the expansions are here and
even quests you never seen before.
But those are not new quests, they were just cut off from the original release back in
2000.
So the game is like Madonna - face is new, but the body is old and it plays like an old
game as well.
Be aware of that.
Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales
This is a single player RPG set in the world of The Witcher that combines narrative-driven
exploration with unique puzzles and card battle mechanics.
Well, some sort of a mishmash of different things, but so is a potato salad, so expect
the best, especially when Thronebreaker is a proud owner of very positive reviews on
Steam.
The game spins a truly regal tale of Meve, a war-veteran and queen of two Northern Realms
— Lyria and Rivia.
Facing an imminent nilfgaardian invasion, Meve is forced once again to enter the warpath
and set out on a dark journey of destruction and revenge.
People on Steam are saying that the writing here is amazing, although the game itself
is so unusual that sometimes it may be hard to really get into the gameplay.
But don't let that discourage you - 90 out of 100 players who bought the game are recommending
it for you.
And so do I. Show those milfguardians who’s the boss.
War for the Overworld
That is a tongue breaking name for me, I said it right from like 15th time or something.
Ayway, the game is a spiritual successor of Dungeon Keeper.
Some even call it Dungeon Keeper 3.
Well, it is not.
It’s similar, but also different in its own way.
You know like King’s Bounty is not Heroes of Might and Magic, so it’s the same here.
In this game with the name I cannot pronounce, you will find replayability across many game
modes that will keep you entertained for 40 hours or even more if you are, you know, a
bit slow.
You see, being smart is not always good.
You get more playtime if your IQ is lower.
Like me and The Witness.
It will take me 70 years to finish a 17 hour game.
Anyway, here you will have to take care of various demons, devils, evil wizards, gnomes
and other creepy villains, although none of them are as creepy as your ex-mother-in-law.
Here you are a dungeon master or dungeon mistress who tries to build a cozy environment for
those creatures, so they would live in your dungeon and not somewhere else.
Also in this game you can punish your minions if you like.
There can be many reasons.
Let’s say you can punish them for being not supportive, grumpy or just because you
can.
There is a device called the meatgrinder...
use it wisely.
SteamWorld Dig 2
Game takes you on a mining adventure forged in Metroidvania flames.
When an old trading town is struck by mysterious earthquakes, it’s up to you - a lone steambot
and your unlikely companion to uncover what trembling terrors lies beneath.
And you know what you uncover deep deep below?
Your fat mama.
Oh come on, no, it’s a secret and you will have to discover it by yourself.
So you will dig your way underground and explore vivid worlds riddled with treasure, secrets
and deadly traps.
Fight dangerous enemies at every turn of the underworld, including shadowy creatures and
the haunted remains of an ancient electrical threat.
Well, this game is obviously story-rich and that is awesome.
And last but not least - check out the GOG weekly sale as well - they have tons of discounted
great games you may actually like.
Click on my link in the description and explore a bit.
All the games are DRM free and refunds are supported for up to 30 days, so it is way
better and friendlier store than Steam is.
Thank you for watching, have a nice day and I’ll see you next time, bye!
