Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection - MRORANGE
The 30th SF Anniversary Collection is a beautiful packing offering 12 classics games that are arcade perfect ports of the original. All the major important classics are here and it's just amazing that you can now finally play them on PC. With 6 hours already I can confirm that the PC version is amazing, the net-play is solid and it only took a couple of seconds to find a game, the online is really addictive and refreshing to play against other s and get get your ass handed to you by Balrog's, Vega's and Blanka players. The game has an extensive art collection and supports nearly any controller and training modes to boot. In summary this is the best collection of Street Fighter homage games you will every play in a very nice package that Capcom has actually put effort in.
Vampyr - texhnolyze
Brought to you by Dontnod Entertainment, In Vampyr, you roleplay as Jonathan Reid, a doctor whose main mission is to cure the citizen of 1918 London. However, he's also a vampire, who starves for the blood of those he's supposed to cure. Each feast will strengthen you, granting you the power to overcome your foes. But by feeding the citizen, you will also cripple the city as each of them has their own important roles. Who will you sacrifice? Can you live with the consequences?
Jurassic World Evolution - Mugen
From the makers of theme park-builder Planet Coaster comes Jurassic World Evolution, in which you will construct and manage dinosaur parks on five tropical islands, with unpredictable climate. Fossils for DNA-extraction must be gathered from all over the world in order to breed viable dinosaurs, but then again nothing stops you from applying further genetic "enhancements". Three factions; Entertainment, Science and Security, will fight for your attention and should you ignore or fail their missions they might start to sabotage your park. Will you be able to succeed where the movie tie-ins have failed?
Paladins - Mobius and Pet Octopus
Paladins is an incredibly well designed shooter, unique among it's competitors. It has a huge cast of champions (~30) to choose from, each having their own sets of individual strengths and weaknesses with multiple layers of personal customization to suit your play style, that contributes to a complex dynamic when played as a team. Play casually in deathmatch or siege modes, or jump into a competitive draft experience similar to a MOBA. If enough people are interested, we should launch a community for Era since this game is very deserving of one as the game is very fun with friends.
Bus Simulator 18 - Aaron D.
Experience the job of a bus driver in a vast and freely drivable urban area. Drive original licensed city buses from the great brands: Mercedes-Benz, Setra, MAN, and IVECO BUS. Transport your passengers safely and punctually, either solo in single player mode, or in multiplayer mode.
New Gundam Breaker - Rayge
The first Gundam game to hit PC! While New Gundam Breaker doesn't have the combat of Gundam Versus, it does have unrivaled customization. Players collect items through combat and can switch out parts during game play on the fly. They can enjoy battles in different dioramas including a hobbyist workshop. Players also get to tackle different model grades with different size scaling. This game will appeal to those looking to have some fun with different mobile suits in a third person action setting and/or those who just want to collect all the Gunplas and enjoy viewing them in a 3D space. The real treat for me will be taking screenshot galore. How will you enjoy the game?
BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle - Rayge
Finally! Persona on PC! Kidding aside, this is a new tag-based fighting game from Arc System Works. While the name refers to an already established fighting game series, we actually get 4 IPs in one. BlazBlue, Persona, UNIEL, and RWBY. Aside from RWBY, all sprite work is being pulled from their previous games. With that said everything does seem to blend together nicely. As for mechanics, players can look forward to new tag mechanics, faster combat, smart combos (auto-combos), and streamlined gameplay with easier to execute specials. While the roster is only starting with 20 Characters the first season will flesh it out to a total of 40. This game should definitely itch the scratch for those that were left disappointed by MVC:I and want something that's a little bit more anime than DBFighterZ.
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy - MRORANGE

Just Shapes and Beats - prudis
"Just Shapes & Beats" is a chaotic co-op musical bullet-hell based on three simple things: avoid Shapes, move to the kick-ass Beats, and die, repeatedly.

Overload - FunktionJCB
Matt Toschlog and Mike Kulas, the creators of the Descent series, are back with a spiritual successor to the series that helped popularize the 6DoF (6-degree-of-freedom) shooters during the 90's.
Overload is the Descent successor fans of the series kept hoping for. It features the familiar fast and furious gameplay you would expect from the genre, a story by the writer of FREESPACE 2, and a kick-ass soundtrack by Descent series veteran composers Dan Wentz, Allister Brimble, and Jerry Berlongieri.
The game features multiple single-player (story campaign, survival mode) and online multiplayer modes, ship customization, and VR support.
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon - Mugen
Curse of the Moon is an 8-bit-stylized prequel to the upcoming Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, marking the comeback of former Castlevania-director Koji Igarashi. We take control of Zangetsu whom in classic metroidvania-fashion must explore monster-filled stages in order to vanquish a demon. Three more characters are unlocked during the campaign, opening up for new ways of traversing the stages. A playthrough is only about 3-5 hours and the game should be free to most of those that backed Bloodstained on Kickstarter.
Half-Life 2: Episode 2 - MRORANGE
This an easy one, at the start of the game you will find this gnome in a house, you must escort this object throughout the game and place it in the rocket at the end of the game. It's quite a fun achievement to do as you will need to use the gravity gun to projectile the object forwards especially the driving sequences when the gnome can fly out of the car even with the smallest of bumps.

The SteamERA Community was founded on Discord on October 2017, a stranded bunch of SteamGAF who united together and embraced on what we thought was the end of times. However as more people joined we found hope and soon started to formulate and plan for the future. This thread would not be possible without the community we have on Discord and I encourage all of you to join if you have not.
