Atelier Sophie is great. It's also the cheaper on and the only other Atelier game on Steam is Firis, which is a sequel to Sophie anyway
Call of Juarez - Gunslinger could be up your alley, if it hasn't been mentioned yet. Not sure how laptop-friendly it would be, though.

Opinions on Voidspire Tactics (and to a lesser extent Alvora Tactics)? It seems like it hits all the right beats. Lots of classes, abilities, gear. Just not sure about the story.

Buy Sophie. Firis is more divisive/problematic and a worse port to boot. Sophie is a relatively easy recommendation to make and a fine entry point to the franchise.

Guess it's Sophie and the Deluxe Edition, thanks! I've seen Durante HYPE the hell out of Atelier games. Always been interested in trying them.

For anyone on the fence for Cryptark, the game is buggy with some performance hiccups. Probably needed to stay in Early Access longer.
Alvora Tactics was great. Really hooked me for about 15+ hours, which was plenty worth it for the price. Still planning on going back for a few hours to round it all out. Game has great combat and customization. The UI took some getting used to, there are a few differences from typical SRPGs that you'll have to readjust to, and I'm not about to sing praises for the game's aesthetic, but if you're looking for a mechanically excellent SPRG, you can't go wrong with Alvora Tactics.
With that said, from what I've read/heard, everything I just said applies to Voidspire Tactics as well, except Voidspire has a not-quite-as-expansive job system but a much better story.

Trails in the Cold Steel steam page is up. Interestingly, minimum specs are GPD Win specs, with a mode called "portable"
Neat.

HELL TO THE FUCKING YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Give me that preorder button Xseed.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel store page is up. Has July set as a release date (no specific day though).
Now that it's confirmed for July, here are some ideas for the Steam OT July subtitle again
STEAM | July 2017 - The weather's hot but at least there is Cold Steel
STEAM | July 2017 - The weather's hot but Steel will keep us Cold
STEAM | July 2017 - The weather's hot but the Steel is Cold
Thoughts? Better ideas?

Picked up
- Outlast (because it was crazy-cheap)
- Shadow of Morder (same)
- Stephen's Sausage Roll (no longer an intimidatng price, if still an intimidating game)
- Silence of the Sleep (Heard about it in numerous Hidden Gem topics)
- Stories Untold (I like the mysterious vibes and let's face it, the Stranger Things-style... style.)

I approve of any of these, good stuff!
That's an awesome list, you'll be having some good times.
Finished up Hollow Knight. Took me about 17hrs. Got 35% completion.
Lots of stuff unexplored but yea what a great video game. One of the best Metroidvanias I've ever played. So many good boss fights and so many beautiful locations. So little handholding makes this an instant classic. The vast variety of enemies and how dangerous they all are makes this such a great 2D Souls like gem. Easily worth the 10$ if you are still on the fence about it. No doubt will be a strong GOTY contender.
well since my credit card is fixed i bought bayonetta and god eater and hollow knight
i'm feeling like swording stuff so i feel i made some good choices
i think i got like 3 or 4 bucks left on my wallet, will probably try and get one indie game or something with the rest so i don't feel i spent all my money on murder

Torn on whether to pick up Mankind Divided. (And maybe Dishonored 2?)
Deus Ex is basically my favorite game ever. Worried that I'll just be crushed with disappointment playing MD. (Wasn't that blown away by HR tbh)
Also, is the DLC worth it? Looks like Deluxe version with Season pass is reasonably cheap.

After digging into a bunch of hidden gem threads, I ended up with the following checkout:
The Turing Test
Stories: Path of Destinies
TRI: Of Friendship and Madness
The Black Watchman
Wuppo
Drox Operative
LostWinds 1 and 2
Seraph
Voidspire Tactics
Ara Fell
Tribal Pass
Westerado: Double Barreled
Train Valley
Gateways
Tetrobot and Co
Sokobond
SquareCells
The Floor is Jelly
Anything on here that is actually bad and should be avoided?

From the ones I've played, nothing to de-recommend. Only thing I would say is that some of these have been in bundles not too long ago and you might be able to buy them much cheaper in the BST thread, if that's something you're interested in.
And if I can recommend one more game to add to your list; Highlands. A severely overlooked gem that's currently only $2 CDN (might be cheaper on the US storefront).

You can either hide them or remove them completely, although the later will remove all of the games tied to one key/subscription if you remove one of them.
The hide option if available in the menu where you set a category for a game, and for removing the game, you use the support site. https://help.steampowered.com/
Games that you remove yourself, you can get back if you want to later, by using the same support site.

Other then Headlander that I already shouted about, Outland is the one other Metroidvania I know about that you don't have in your list there. Been playing Outland for 1h now, and so far it's a quality game, much better then other games in the genre, like Guacamelee (which I think is vastly overrated).
Elite Dangerous makes EVE Online's learning curve look like a gentle bunny slope.

Gonna send the bolded to MRORANGE ALONG WITH MY list of July titles.
I'ma leave Cold Steel t you lot.
Uh it was only 1 time, fam.
:thumbsup
I'll just say that I can't do a Cold Steel write-up since I'm not familiar with at all besides it being a Falcom game and being in the Trails-series
STEAM | July 2017 - Trash OP's or Late OP's
That hub is crazy big complex and stuffed woth secrets and you spend most of your game there. Honestly quite possibly the best hub of all time. Prague is a better.designed area than anyhing in original deus ex. (Altho i still prefer the original). I'd recommend MD over prey 2 and dh2. Get md and dh2 if u can.

I ended up with 45hrs put into, but obviously that is almost 100% without guides and with the "true" end which imo is a must

This sounds like something that will change absolutely nothing about g2a.

It should do. The notice that was sent out to sellers is more detailed and regardless of whether you're selling items personally or as a "business", you'll need to provide sufficient evidence of a registered business name in order to create new listings.
I predict a lot of I.C. Weiners selling stuff at G2A in the future.

Just finished the
in Dishonored 2 and that was incredible.
clockwork mansion
Dishonored 2 got seriously some of the best level design in all of videogames.
You still have some really good stuff in front of you.
Do you have Half Life and the expansions yet? They are worth a shot.
I picked up Towers Unite due to some mrecommendations in the hidden gems thread and had a blast with a friend in the short time I played. It seems like it will be a really good chillout area where you can hop into some competitive games.
It has a lot of potential but is lacking some major features I think it could really have like character model customisation (you can only do colours at the moment, not facial features or body size etc). Plus there is a lot of "coming soon" signs on a lot of activities which look like a lot of fun!
Seeing what players come up with is erm.. interesting:
We visited a randomers house and stumbled upon the above room while Turkish music was being played in the other room. There was a Kim Jong Un shrine just behind us in that screenshot.
It's one of the best single player levels in a game in years. It's only really bettered by another level that you'll encounter later on in Dishonoured 2.
Fantastic game.

As JaseC said, it should make a difference.
According to a post from a user on g2a's reddit forum:
--
A new interesting game appeared on steam store.
My Time At Portia, a simulation open world RPG from the same devs of Planet Explorers.
It has a demo available if somebody is interested to try it.
Nier Automata is back at the top sellers list and is nearing 500K sales, not there yet but could be after the sale
Vanquish is not doing so hot, and still is bellow 100K
Trails in the Sky as always is criminally underrated on steam, 3rd is still only at ~10K (and it is an amazing game), and SC is barely above 40K
Bayonetta is at 220K sold
Cities: Skylines is above 3.5 mln now, wow
Stardew Valley is on the top seller list also, 2.7 mln
Final Fantasy games being on sale, made some good for their numbers too, FF5 is now at 75K and FF6 passed 100K. X/X-2 are nearing half million sales too.
FF14 numbers are nuts for a paid MMO - 640K
edited: almost forgot, Black Desert is almost at 200K and it is locked out for many regions, countries
edit2: I wonder how Cold Steel will do, it being new game might help it to sell better, I hope

Northgard is at 215k, it does show just how popular a good RTS is on PC.
