I think I’ll be finally picking up Project Wingman and Black Mesa in this sale.

What’s on your list?

    UBoat - it’s a u boat game / simulator of sorts. Complex, slow game play as you stalk convoys, set up for the ambush, then escape the destroyers hunting your uboat.

      Haven’t heard about that one but I’m intrigued. Have you played Silent Hunter 3 im the past? If so, how does it compare?

    Not related, but OP, if you get the chance I recommend at least trying out Project Wingman in VR with joysticks.

    Holy shit, was it a transcendent experience.

    I beat the campaign with a controller on a monitor my first time around, but on my second playthrough I played it in VR and I found there is nothing like looking for bogeys and tracking them by peeking around your cockpit.


    More related to the prompt, but if anyone wants a recommend:

    I just beat both Pentiment and Return of the Obra Dinn and both were truly the historical detective / mystery games that I’ve waited so long for.

    Go into both completely blind and report back. I guarantee you, that you will not be disappointed.

      Agreed, Pentiment and Return of the Obra Dinn are both amazing.

      Do you have a suggestion for a VR Headset? I’m on the fence about getting one.

    Is The Talos Principle II considered a lesser known title? Bought it this sale at -20% off, but its is totally worth its almost full price of ~30€.

    Cruelty Squad is very often overlooked because of how it looks, but it’s genuinely one of the best indie games I have ever played

      I plan to also buy that one after I saw Max0r’s video about cruelty squad. Looks shitty enough to be right for me.
