Blood Bowl 2 is just 2.99 and with all the dlc is 6.74 which amounts to a 75-80% discount if you like the franchaise.

The Underground one is the bee's knees for me; specially when you get that jump scare from a Hunter dropping in to ruin your day.

Not on Steam but on UbiSoft Connect...accidentally bought AssCreed Valhalla as I was trying to cash in come 'coin' but they were not applicable because it's a new release. Oh well. Don't tell The Wife  >:D

Probably going to be pretty light for me. So far, I only have Operation Citadel in my cart.

Highly recommend "Generation Zero"...atmospheric, huge open world that has a definite "Far Cry" feel to it. Well done overall. Allows the player to use multiple tactics (from sniping to old fashioned SMG run and gun) to defeat mysterious robots that have suddenly appeared to take over the countryside. The game is about $8 with the sale, and is a steal at that price.

I haven't played an MMO in many years.  What's the current state of Fallout 76' on Steam for $13.19.  I know it got bashed when it first came out so I'm hesitant to jump in.

I don't own it because I do not MMO and hate people, but I have seen that Fallout '76 has been patched up the wazoo so it's got to be better than it was upon release.

I love the Simon Stålenhag books and paintings that inspired it, but I heard a lot of mixed reviews about the game. Maybe for $8 it's worth the plunge.

I have about 20 hours of playtime so far...loved every second of it. I have not noticed any gameplay issues...except that you really have to do some tactical thinking, or the game will trounce you. As the game progresses, you are introduced to ever more dangerous robot types. You then have to find a tactic to defeat each of these. For example, the early "runner" robots can be fast, but when they pause, a well aimed sniper round to their fuel tank turns them into a ball of fire. Or later, some of the more heavy robots can be killed by exploding a small LPG tank under them. Anyway, great fun and no regrets. 

The game world is believable and gorgeous.

However, its not all wonderful. The inventory interface takes a little getting used to. The game only lets you save a spawn points. Also, when you are killed, the game forces you back to a spawn point...sometimes they are quite far away. I find myself missing Bethesda's standard save anywhere feature.

A shocker for me.....I don't plan on buying anything more in the sale:)  Possibly one Tiller title before the year ends...but still deciding.

I'm thinking about picking up one of the two Command Ops 2 scenario packs I don't have yet but I haven't played the others yet and Bradley at Bay is tenatively looking to be out in February so I may just hold off.
