"Crusader Kings II" is on sale at 75% off! [:)] Sale ends February 5! One of the finest Medieval Grand Strategy games on the market! From the dev's "The Dark Ages might be drawing to a close, but Europe is still in turmoil. Petty lords vie against beleaguered kings who struggle to assert control over their fragmented realms. The Pope calls for a Crusade to protect the Christians in the Holy Land even as he refuses to relinquish control over the investiture of bishops - and their riches. Now is the time for greatness. Expand your demesne and secure the future of your dynasty. Fill your coffers, appoint vassals, root out traitors and heretics, introduce laws and interact with hundreds of nobles, each with their own agenda. A good lord will always need friends to support him. But beware, as loyal vassals can quickly turn to bitter rivals, and some might not be as reliable as they seem... Stand ready, and increase your prestige until the world whispers your name in awe. Do you have what it takes to become a Crusader King? Crusader Kings II explores one of the defining periods in world history in an experience crafted by the masters of Grand Strategy. Medieval Europe is brought to life in this epic game of knights, schemes, and thrones...". Definitely worth a look!

Basically there's a BIG sale going on at Steam right now although many aren't as onsale as they'd make you believe. Lots of 50% offers but not many 75% and higher. Still a sale is a sale and you might be interested. Some new stuff this time around also.

"This War of Mine" is on sale at 70% off! [:)] Sale ends February 12th! War played from a different viewpoint...from the dev's "In This War Of Mine you do not play as an elite soldier, rather a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city; struggling with lack of food, medicine and constant danger from snipers and hostile scavengers. The game provides an experience of war seen from an entirely new angle. The pace of This War of Mine is imposed by the day and night cycle. During the day snipers outside stop you from leaving your refuge, so you need to focus on maintaining your hideout: crafting, trading and taking care of your survivors. At night, take one of your civilians on a mission to scavenge through a set of unique locations for items that will help you stay alive. Make life-and-death decisions driven by your conscience. Try to protect everybody from your shelter or sacrifice some of them for longer-term survival. During war, there are no good or bad decisions; there is only survival. The sooner you realize that, the better." This game is part of the "Lunar New Year Sale" and I wanted to high-lite it...it's an outstanding game...check it out!

I think so, the crispness of the HD is great and you get The Conquerors expansion (the manual you got through the mail is worth what you paid for that)! And, it's only $3.99...

This is a very enjoyable and funny Survival-Indie game, from the devs: "Sir, You Are Being Hunted is set on a mysterious archipelago generated procedurally by you, and therefore unique to each game you play.

You're not entirely alone, though: The disembodied voice of Walters, your butler, will help you and offer advice." Check it out!

Torchlight II is great if you want a Diablo clone that's a bit more bright and cheery. Not much story to it, but there is a TON of content. And if you ever actually run out you can go to the Steam Workshop and click on one mod (I can't recall the name at the moment) that adds additional classes, monsters, items, levels, etc. So much that you can never possibly finish it all.

[Kuokkanen]

Nah. I've played so much of Diablo that I'm sick & tired of the genre. I played bit of Fate on my laptop some 5 years ago, but that just confirmed it: I'm done & over of it.

With all content in Steam Workshop you have a game that you can play and enjoy for many, many years [:)]...that's if you like the genre.
