There's also quite a selection of interesting horror or horror-inspired indie games available if you're into that and don't already have most of them on Steam.

I really enjoyed Layers of Fear recently. It reminded me of a mixture of Outlast and Eternal Darkness.

Yeah it was like Eternal Darkness: The Walking Sim Edition. I liked it. I'd need to wait a few years to play it again, but I liked it.

That's the best description! I was trying to find the best way to describe it, but that sums it up pretty well. I don't usually like Walking Simulators, but Layers of Fear was something else. It kept me engrossed to the end. I haven't tried any of the DLC yet, but the main game was great.

Darkest Dungeon is an intense roguelike indie RPG that has a physical release. There is a remaster of dark souls, with 6 player multi-player.

You could maybe monster hunter would be up your alley?

The graphic styling for the Links Awakening Remake looks amazing, I love it!

Oh my God, Astral Chain looks fucking phenomenal! I cannot wait. No Metroid Prime Trilogy :(

Oh and Link's Awakening made me geek out so badly. It was the first Zelda I ever played and it's probably subjectively, for nostalgia reasons, my favourite Zelda, but those graphics are f'ing ugly. It's not my thing, just like A Link Between Worlds' look wasn't my thing... although I LOVED that game, so I'm intrigued for this remake, but also wonder what the point is. It looks identical... only with an ugly mobile game aesthetic.

To whoever said on a meeting room "You know what game needs a Battle Royale mode? TETRIS" with a straight serious face, you're my hero and i love you.

Im super sad that we didn't get a Bayo 3 trailer but that brand new platinum game looks amazing. Definetly will cure the bayo 3 hunger for now.

Links awakening (or Link's kawaiikening as i like to call it) looks cool despite me not really diggin the new art style. I really loved the style on the 3DS games.

Its really time to get that starfox i mean starlink battle for atlas game. New free content of star fox crew caugh my eye.

My thoughts exactly. I can't wait to dive into that one.

I got to play a game of Tetris 99 tonight on switch. Just one game before I started the bedtime routine with the kids.. Got 8th place... With Gwendolyn my 1 year old grabbing and pulling the system and obfuscating the screen... I think I'll do just fine when I fire it up tonight.
