I knew Tiny Barbarian was going up in price, but wow. Good luck, but I don't see anyone buying it at that price.

Creepy Castle is a decent price. Maybe I'll check it out.

I bought Creepy Castle almost on release, and it is charming, but I honestly also found it kinda boring. I should go back to it someday, though...

Also, The End is Nigh as 50% is an excellent price. It's an amazing platformer, worth of its pedigree.

I finally wanted to play Wolfenstein 2. It let me download it last week just fine. The files are still on my computer. Now when I enter my Steam library with a VPN it doesn't show up and when I want to start it through the exe it says that this version isn'T available in my country. What am I supposed to do?

Can't start it in offline-modus either.

As some of you know, every month I make a thread listing some highlights of titles releasing on Steam in the coming month.
I've just compiled a list of not just January releases, but also other potential releases of 2018; I intend for this to showcase a bunch of titles that would be available in 2018.
So far I've made a list of at least 50 titles from various genres and publishers, and I plan on getting it put up likely after TGA and PSX mainly because it'd be before the holiday period.

Venom's Standing Hard Punch from the old games is a special move now. Seems they also changed another one of his normal attacks into a special move too.

They have really great so far. Just let us know here when a new one drops in since they can easily get lost in the gaming section.

Cool! I know there are quite a few games I am looking forward to next year, but I am pretty sure I've already forgotten a bunch of them.

Top of my list is Pillars of Eternity 2

More people need to sub and watch Ross' Game Dungeon. While I don't agree with all his points, he has some interesting points to bring up at least.
Plus his voice is great.

Velocibox is PC Gamer's free game if you're subscribed.

There was a game on WiiWare on the Wii that was like that IIRC. Might even be the same one.

I just looked at the PC Gamer site and couldn't see what I would need to sign up for or where. Mind pointing me in the right direction please?

I was thinking of getting Xenonauts just this morning and now it's on sale again. It's a decent price so I think I'll get it.

Started playing Dark Souls 3 with a friend, as soon as I turned on matchmaking I got invaded and instakilled, but then we killed every invader that came.

Gameplay is fun so far, I like the way the new engine looks graphically.

If you liked the 1994 X-Com, Xenonauts is a great game. The strategic layer removes a large part of the needless micromanaging while still retaining the complexity (for example, if you shoot down a UFO but don't want to actually assault it, you can carpet bomb the site and get a cash bonus instead), and the air combat is better than anything done by UFO Defense, 2012 XCOM, or Long War. Suppression is a nice addition, and all of your soldiers automatically get flares on night missions.

The lore/wordbuilding/atmosphere/enemy designs IMO are a step down from 1994 X-Com, but mechanically it's a much more fun game to play. That being said, there's not much in the way of hilarious broken jank like in 1994 X-Com. Y'know, like chryssalids being able to move and attack farther than your soldiers' vision range. Or stepping out of the skyranger and being gunned down by a mob of sectoids. Or literally not being able to hit Ethereals on night missions because your flares can't illuminate them floating in the air.

I can't find good settings for my Steam Controller for Dark Souls 1.
I guess it's due to the bad implementation of mouse input in dark souls (as in no real mouse input). Love the controller for DS3 and Nioh as well as the latter is now patched with full real mouse support.

I've been thinking about playing Flashback. I've only played it on SNES in the past and can't for the life of me remember if I actually finished it so I should probably do that. It's a shame that they haven't done a proper "definitive" version of it on modern systems. I'd buy that, none of that remake bullshit that came out few years ago. Seems like using REminiscenceto combine the Amiga music with the DOS graphics is the best version I can get right now.

I wonder who even owns the IP now. The dev of the remake shut down and Ubi published the remake, so maybe Ubi I guess. But they don't own other old Delphine games, so hmm. Maybe it's with the original creator who seems to be at Microids now.

Someone like Nightdive should dig it up and publish it.

I've got about 20 titles to finish up for the list, but here is a quick look at a few Steam titles releasing in 2018

...

Oh, I didn't realize that The Fall 2 was listed on the store. Wishlisted!
I really hope it pans out, because The Fall was a really interesting experience despite having an annoying control scheme.

Mouse-Like Joystick + increased in-game sensitivity can help. It won't get as good as pure mouse support, but it's not bad.

There's no customization, but it should mostly be functional.

The problem is with how the camera is hooked up for mouse-look (it's straight unusable). I guess this is a bad omen for the Steam controller, as the hack to fix normal mouse control actually just turns it into a virtual joystick (so the game thinks it's being operated with a controller). If it has to try to function with the game's actual mouse controls... good luck, I guess. :(
