A high-lite from the from the Autumn Sale..."This War of Mine" is on sale at 80% off! [:)] Sale ends November 29th! It does not get any cheaper than this...simply outstanding...from the developers: "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 WAR OF MINE: ANNIVERSARY EDITION

It's been two years since This War of Mine global release and we're still expanding the experience. This new free DLC, created especially for the Anniversary Edition, adds new characters, new locations to explore, and most importantly - a whole new ending, leading to a different outcome to the game. The dilemma though remains the same – how far will you go, to protect the ones you care about?
THIS WAR OF MINE:

* Inspired by real-life events
* Control your survivors and manage your shelter
* Craft weapons, alcohol, beds or stoves – anything that helps you survive
* Make decisions - an often unforgiving and emotionally difficult experience
* Randomized world and characters every time you start a new game
* Charcoal-stylized aesthetics to complement the game's theme"

I don't know about you but I buy *very few* games, and those that I have I play a lot. For me owning a game, no matter how cheap, but never playing it is a waste of money IMHO.
Yesterday I bought two DLC's for a cRPG I'm playing lately, other than that nothing. Probably will wait for the Christmas sale for another game or two....that's it.
Man my Steam library consists of maybe twenty games, well okay maybe thirty, I bought in the last 15 years or so hehe.

"Exoplanet: First Contact", Coming Soon! This one caught my attention...from the developers: "Exoplanet: First Contact is a singleplayer, story-driven third person action RPG set in a Space Western universe. Here, real and fictional technologies meet the cruel and unforgiving, yet romantic reality of the Wild West. You are Jack Sharp, a daring adventurer, stranded on a dangerous, wild planet known as K’Tharsis. In this hellhole of a world, the local population of both human colonists and native aborigines are oppressed by the soulless Terraform corporation who uses slaves to mine a valuable mineral known as Antigravium. The player can choose either side, a mercenary working for the corporation or as an ally with the oppressed population of K'Tharsis.

Several games, movies and fictional worlds helped to inspire the Exoplanet team’s vision of the RPG experience. Sources include, a space western TV series known as Firefly, the universe of Dune, charismatic characters of Sergio Leone and rich dialogues of Quentin Tarantino's films. The core game design values of Exoplanet were partly derived from best-working principles behind the classic RPG titles such as a living and breathing world of Gothic 2: Night of the Raven, Fallout, TES III: Morrowind, Red Dead Redemption and Borderlands.

Exoplanet: First Contact will be the first part of the Exoplanet Universe. It will tell you the story of Jack Sharp, his appearance on the planet, and the discovery of one of the most extraordinary mysteries of K’Tharsis. Future parts will discover new adventures of Jack and his friends.

Each part contains a significant narrative sequence with clear goals, critical decisions and visible consequences. Exoplanet: First Contact represents approximately ten hours of gameplay, not including the side-quests or additional explorations."
