Digital Deluxe Edition is currently the star deal on Fanatical and also happens to be the historical low price. With P5R finally coming to PC in 10 days, I have no more reason not to get this. It's still baffling to me that the spin-off sequel released on Steam literally years before the base game but at least the nonsense is finally coming to an end.

The last thing I need is more games to play right now but I saw that Code Vein was down to like 8 bucks for the Deluxe Edition and it finally made me go "fuck it, I've been wanting to try it for years". And then I thought to check if Scarlet Nexus was also discounted and that one was more of an impulse purchase. 😅

Valve Steam Deck: Our Review - GlitterBeam Radio

 

One of these bad boys. Obviously the first thing I played was the near 30 year old PS1 game Final Fantasy IX (though with Moguri Mod so it looked fab)
Feels amazing, just a right amount of heft (though I wonder if it had more battery in that would have been an okay compromise). Only issue is a couple of the software side of things but can be easily tweaked - mainly in that the library has no filters on it except an overall "Great on Steam Deck" and your pre-made collections, so I'm having to make up some collections on the PC to filter a bit more finely. Also means you have to click through to find what the install size will be - which for a few games can mean that while they'll play great I ain't installing them due to being half the size of my storage. Which at the moment there's also no background/standby download and install so you need to set it away and leave the deck chugging along.

But otherwise enjoying - great for the little games. Also plentyu of 3D printer support too so docks a plenty for major brand of USBC hubs (shame that british plug is a bit too thicc to fit in the back strap - there's US n EU plug cable tidies that fit right in the snug of the case). And support for PS Remote Play, GOG, Epic etc with quite a simple bit of work (at most some copy pasting to the Terminal).

So I got Scarlet Nexus on a whim/sale and (esp as early on not many PS5 titles) and it was really weirdly fun. Took a bit to get what it was aiming for in game play - especially as early on it does that thing of forcing the party composition and also there's a lot of names (and relations between people) to keep track of so the story was a bit confusing at start (and tbf it's still kinda whacky - peak anime kinda stuff) but intriguing.
Fun and funky enemy designs too.

Normally I'd never pre-order so far in advance but Voidu has a 30% off code that works on basically everything and I don't anticipate finding a better deal than that. I'm basically getting the deluxe edition for 30 bucks off.

 

I was tempted to grab more like Miles Morales but my playthrough of P5R has kinda slowed down over the last week so I don't anticipate being done with it anytime soon.

With the sequel coming out I've been meaning to replay Outer Worlds and play the expansions, which I've heard good things about, and even though the base game is on Game Pass the full collection was almost as cheap on Steam (through cdkeys) as just the expansion pass was on the MS store, and I don't like buying DLC for games I don't own, so I decided just to buy the whole thing this way.

What's that? I bought a brand new monitor less than a year ago? Well, it's not an ultrawide ok?! Shut up, Ethan!!!

 

But yeah, I've been eyeing this particular model all year and was already considering buying it as a personal reward/celebration. And then they finally announced the release date for the Witcher 3 update and gave me the final little push I needed. 😅

Yeah, if you have a nice TV that you play PC games on then a high-end monitor probably isn't worth it. In my case, it's not just for games. My PC is basically my TV as well. I watch everything on it. That makes high-end monitors significantly more appealing. I'm sure eventually I'll want to upgrade again to a 32:9 monitor... 😅
