    Might buy one of these this weekend on sale. $100 more for the 5070ti over the 9070xt, but I’m not likely to be doing much 4k gaming anytime soon since my monitor is only up to 1440p and that’s good enough for me tbh so I’d be fine with the AMD i think

    Some great PC exclusive I don’t see recommended a lot:

    Pigface (early access, but it’s still great)

    Echo Point Nova (peak)

    Severed Steel (same dev as EPN)

    Straftat (free multiplayer arena shooter)

    Snø (cheap infinitely generated snowboarding game)

    Parking Garage Rally (best $10 you will spend on a racing game)

    All indie games and relatively cheap, can probably get them all for under $40, especially if you wait for sales. None of them will push your 5070 ti, but they’re all unique and not really something you can get on consoles.

    EPN and Severed Steel look right up my alley I love titanfall fast paced shooter movement thanks for the list this is exactly the stuff I’m looking for, not just s*** that will push my 5070ti like you said, but stuff that’s just different from the console experience

    Surroundead has my interest, I’ve got projectzomboid from some time ago but didn’t have a good set up to play it with so I’m gonna try to get into that too

    I’ve been playing a ridiculous amount the last few weeks. There’s only 6 maps currently, but it’s super repayable. Running different guns/masks can completely change the way you have to play. Best way I can describe it is a combat sandbox.

    The gameplay is the real selling point, feels so good to pop an enemies head all the way across the map.

    @Banana_Clip if you don’t know

    GG.deals or AllKeyShop are great places to search cheap keys and compare prices, just stick to vetted key shops like Eneba/CD keys and there’s no risk. They typically sell games 20-30% cheaper than Steam, even during sales.

    Fanatical, Green Man Gaming and GOG also all have great Black Friday promos going for a few more days.

    Can build a massive library quick for basically nothing, there are tons of $1-3 indie/older pc exclusives

    Completely different games I know, but I only wanna get one between DOOM 2016, Witcher 3 base game, and dishonored Definitive Edition. Which experience among these really hit the spot for y'all?

    Built a library of 21 Double/AAA titles for $26 more or less on Steam, but I've heard of the sites where they sell keys. Didn't know they were even cheaper than Steam

    Vouch for Dishonored

    Great story, peak art direction and atmosphere, feels amazing on pc, tons of mods, super replayable.

    Plus you can play the sequel after which is even better

    I rarely buy from Steam directly anymore besides indies and DLC. Even the “legit” key shops like GMG, who buy keys bulk directly from publishers, 99% of the time offer better prices.

    Eneba is more of a marketplace than the others I listed, so anyone can put up a key they have. Just make sure the seller is a 95% or above rating and has recent sales, you should be fine. I mainly buy on there and haven’t had a issue in years

    Nice. The last game I played in the stealth genre was Chaos Theory a while ago. I've seen a lotta praise for Dishonored. Someone did mention that the game "punishes" you for adopting a less stealthy playstyle? Is that true

    This is worth looking into then

    Can't go wrong with any of these tbh. They're like quintessential 2010's gaming

    I'm putting my vote in for Witcher 3 but you gotta get the DLC too.
