I'm kinda surprised to see no one posted a thread yesterday to talk about Valve had created a new Portable Nintendo Swicth like PC Gaming Console called "Steam Deck". The Steam Deck was announced yesterday and this is going to be released at December. The crew from IGN did asked the developers to talk about the Steam Deck that it does play more than Steam Games such as Xbox Game Pass, other gaming software, etc. There are three seperate versions of the price points mentioned in the website that did confirmed that are 64 GB Storage eMMC as $399.00, 256 GB Storage NVMe SSD as $529.00, and 512 GB Storage NVMe SSD as $649.00 and they did mentioned about the FAQ about Steam Deck.

I was curious what everyone thinks are good games to get on the Steam Summer Sales, share your recommendations and here's some from me in no particular order: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel series Cold Steel 1 https://store.steampowered.com/app/538680/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_of_Cold_Steel/ Cold Steel 2 https://store.steampowered.com/app/748490/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_of_Cold_Steel_II/ Cold Steel 3 https://store.steampowered.com/app/991270/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_of_Cold_Steel_III/ Trails of Cold Steel is a JRPG series that is set in a Fantasy Empire focusing on a group of students at a military academy who are taken through a variety of different tasks and field studies that take them to various parts of the Empire where they fight monsters, help townspeople and also stop consparicies that are threatening the stability of their nation. It features a diverse cast of great characters whom you can bond with and through those bonds learn new abilites and powers to help them conquer their quest. I played through the 3 Cold Steel games recently and I've enjoyed them all and can recommend them to any JRPG fan and especially to fans of games like Fire Emblem and Persona. I'd also recommend checking out the Trails in The Sky trilogy as they're part of the same series, it's recommended to play them first chronologically or at least try them out sometime before playing at least Cold Steel 3 or 4 as they're the finales of the saga. https://store.steampowered.com/app/251150/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_in_the_Sky/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/251290/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_in_the_Sky_SC/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/436670/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_in_the_Sky_the_3rd/ Doom Eternal: https://store.steampowered.com/app/782330/DOOM_Eternal/ The king of the First Person Shooter genre is back with a polished combat system and fast paced action that requires skilled manuevering and quick thinking, with a rebalanced combat system that is consistently challenging especially on the highest difficulty settings. This newest entry in the DOOM series came out a few months ago and it is currently my game of the year. And it's 50% off right now which is a very great deal for a recently released title. And if you enjoy it I recommend also getting other games from the DOOM franchise if you haven't already as they're all also on sale right now, and they're very fun shooters, here's the link to the franchise if you're interested in them. https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35501448 Divinity: Original Sin 2: Definitive Edition: https://store.steampowered.com/app/435150/Divinity_Original_Sin_2__Definitive_Edition/ An engaging Role Playing Game set in a medieval fantasy setting that is heavy on magic and has story themes of power and the price to attain it. DOS 2 is a highly interactive game with pen and paper levels of freedom where the player can interact with virtually every object, move their other characters while one of them is in a conversation, and the entire game is playable in cooperative multiplayer with a group of friends if you so desire, but they're also fun to play solo if you're not interested in that and I will still highly recommend it. Resident Evil 2: Remake: https://store.steampowered.com/app/883710/Resident_Evil_2/ This is a good remake of a classic survival horror game and it was one of my favorite games of 2019, I recommend it if you haven't played it already. Yakuza Series: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/13660/The_Yakuza_Bundle/ Yakuza is an entertaining fighting game with an open world setting full of detailed stories both main and side ones, with a great set of minigames some of which so good they could be their own game. Yakuza has a well written dramatic story full of twists and turns as well as some emotional moments with some really deep lore and characters. I highly recommend playing them in chronological order with Zero and then Kiwami 1 and 2 as the story while fairly self contained has a lot of connections to previous events and context can really make a lot of the character moments much more memorable. Hitman Series: https://store.steampowered.com/app/863550/HITMAN_2/ https://store.steampowered.com/franchise/Hitman Hitman is a Stealth Action game that's more like a Sandbox Assassination Simulator with lots of different opportunities to kill your targets by exploration and creating setups, a unique stealth game with a deep disguise system that adds interesting progression to the levels, with the latest games having an enforcer system where you have to avoid certain NPCs who can see through your disguise. The Hitman series is full of very fun games and Hitman 2 is the latest game and the peak of the franchise with the most amount of polish and content. I recommend Hitman to any stealth fan. Thief Series: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/1459/Thief_Collection/ Thief is a video game series of Immersive Sims that are primarily focused on Stealth, and it's a series that I'm currently playing through, they're very old with dated visuals and animations even for their time, but the mechanics and level design on the other hand are timeless. Set in a Steampunk setting, you play as Garrett, master thief robbing rich nobles in his city in order to pay his rent or gain favors from other thieves and fences. Thief Gold (Also known as Thief the Dark Project) has some sinister survival horror tones in it as well, Thief 2 The Metal Age still has them to an extent but it focuses more on the steampunky aspects with some very creative levels and Thief 3 Deadly Shadows has a hub style world where you can associate yourselves with one of the two major factions of the setting. Thief 2014 is a weaker title so you can skip that one and get the 3 original games in the package. And that's the games I can think of off the top of my head, there are many more great games out there but I wanted to feature different types of games instead of saturating it with mostly RPGs or mostly Shooters. Let me know in the replies what are your personal Steam Summer Sale recommendations. Also I've been absent from Serenes Forest for years, when I was active I was posting about the latest Fire Emblem games or reviews of games I recently played, so I'd like to say it's good to be back, Three Houses is my new favorite in the series and Dimitri is best boi, I don't know if I'm gonna be very active on the forums but these days with the current global crisis going on I'm mostly staying home and playing games and I thought I might recommend some of these games to you as well.

Now with Genres I like and Game list Been browsing Steam for the last few weeks ever since I got a powerful gaming rig (it was built with help). I've also been trying to find other games around the web, but I either just don't know what to get or what I even like... so any recommendations? Age: 21 Genres liked (in general, games do not need to contain multiple for me to enjoy): Action, Adventre, RPG, Shooters (does not matter FPS, Over the shoulder, or whatever), Platformer, Fighting, Strategy, Sandbox, Online (includes PvP, Co-Op, MMOs, etc.). These are the ones I know I like, but I'm also pretty experimental with finding out what I like. Do not hold back. Do not like: crappy Horror (the kind that's just blood and jumpscares and such) and Hentai games (can handle nudity and such, but I'm not out for specifically that.) Here's my PC's game library

Announced earlier today but I couldn't find a thread around here Press release taken from Gematsu: First look at the Western version, has minor spoilers from the beginning of the game: About the Switch and 3DS versions:

So its that time of year again with Steam summer sales all around. Anyone got any plans on what they are getting? Just window shopping? Find a great gem hidden in the rough? As for me I got: Nier Automata Trails in the Sky Left 4 Dead 2 (2 dollars lol) To the Moon

Is anyone planning to stream or release videos of FE Gaiden before Echoes is released?

Didn't see a thread for this so I decided to make one. So its that time of year again when Lord Gaben descends from the heavens demanding wallet sacrifices. Steam sales are on until through July 4th for the summer season. Anything catch your eyes? Purchase anything or find any cool deals? I had a couple of gift cards that added up to $75 on steam so I kinda binged a little. Company of Heroes 2 Master Collection Ashes of the Singularity Kerbal Space Program Ikaruga Valkyrie Chronicles Doom AVGN 2 Risk of Rain Feel free to post any good finds or recommendations...

Twitter PR: https://twitter.com/ArcSystemWorksU/status/715342909659152384 Steam page: http://store.steampowered.com/app/411370 Wasn't expecting it this soon, it's one day after Danganronpa 2 so don't know if I'll really be getting it day one but if price is low enough might still go for it Edit: Price will be $24.99 with 20% discount in first week (so $20) https://twitter.com/ArcSystemWorksU/status/715347868559753217

Lonk Lots of nice sales, Dark Souls, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, ect. I finally managed to pick up Dark Souls 2:SotFS since its over 60% off. I do wish I waited to grab Transistor though since it's 4$ now.

http://inticreates.com/azure-striker-gunvolt-steam/ Inti Creates has announced that Azure Striker Gunvolt will be released on Steam on August 28th. The game was first released exactly one year ago on the 3DS, and has a sequel on the way (though there has been no word of it since announcement). That's all right and good, but you may be wondering what the "Salty" tag is doing there? Well... They're giving the Steam version exclusive gameplay features. There's a Time Attack mode and reportedly (according to the Mega Man Network; Inti doesn't list it) a Hard Mode difficulty option. Feeling jealous yet? They're also restoring the Japanese voice-overs. And they're translating the cut dialogue, a.k.a stuff that was in the Japanese 3DS version that was cut for whatever reason from the international release. And as Inti emphasizes, that stuff is exclusive to the PC version. I'm not happy about this. Not happy at all. EDIT: Somebody asked on Facebook if the 3DS version will receive these updates. Inti confirmed that due to "space limitations", it won't.

http://shoryuken.com/2014/09/10/king-of-fighters-98-ultimate-match-and-king-of-fighters-2002-unlimited-match-heading-to-steam-later-this-year/ I am really looking forward to this~ I've always wanted a chance to own these titles, and imo Steam is the perfect place to have 'em. Here we go KoF, time to get destroyed online. B)
