* Dead Space 3
Gifted! I just recalled though that the story really ends in the
Awakened DLC. That's $5 though, more than the game! You can get that >yourself :)

That lack has just been taken care of. ;-)
There is still a bunch of additional DLC (cosmetics, etc.) if anyone
else wants to contribute to Justisaur's collection. ;-)
If you mean through steam, I don't seem to have it.
Look under justisaur/Inventory/Gifts probably there. haven't sent one of these in a while!
I haven't read a book in a long time.
I've mostly been watching Star Trek Discovery of late. With a dash of
Lower Decks, which I didn't like initially, but my daughter wanted to
watch and it's grown on me. Lower Decks isn't entirely appropriate
for her age, but I'm not about to shut it off for some sex remarks.
And on the non-fiction side, Julian Baggini's How to Think Like a Philosopher. Finnish translation which I'm regretting a little now but
an interesting read all the same.

Uh, what? Are you saying you bought the game for me?! I don't know how
to respond! *confused embarrassed grateful* I've only had one friend
(RL) buy a video game for me, Torchlight II because he wanted to play it with me, but then we never seemed to be on at the same time to play it together, and we drifted apart.
If you mean through steam, I don't seem to have it.

What Have You Been Playing... IN APRIL 2024?
Another movie & book month for me. I did fire up the tutorial for >>Homeworld 1 Remastered, but the initial hump of starting a new game hit me >>hard and after fumbling with learning keystroke commands & finishing the >>10minute tutorial I decided I had to set it aside for a bit. I did watch >>15+ movies & finished 4 or 5 books in April though! I will try to switch >>gears to a gaming focus in May, I promise!
Either that or we start a "What Have You Been Watching?" and "What
Have You Been Reading?" thread.
(mostly Godzilla movies and CJ Cherryh novels here ;-)

Diablo 4 in WIndows and Doo Lingo in my iPhone. :P
So thats how you learned human language :D
;) It need ant language. ;p
Disappointing. I generally enjoyed the first "Horizon" game, even if I
found it to be a bit too formulaic. But it had pleasing visuals and
the central game-loop and mechanics were satisfying enough (the combat
was a bit too melee-focused, and the camera was somewhat uncooperative
but otherwise it was fine).
But it sounds like the sequel got kitchen-sinked*, with the developers
adding in new ideas willy-nilly without really understanding how it
would affect the overall balance, loop, and atmosphere of the game.

All that's still there and the visuals are still pleasing and in fact,
you can fly. Or rather, there's a mount you can whistle up that
flies. And there's no tedious waiting for it to land and climbing on and >taking off, it swoops in and grabs you and throws you on its back in a
funny animation. Makes sightseeing easy and in fact the end credits show
off some of the sights.

Unfortunately yes, I have to agree about the kitchen-sinking. They even
put in races! Still, it's not all bad, like the flying mount above.
Also, I didn't much use the other weapons in Zero Dawn either. The one
time I felt the ropecaster would be useful right then to tie down some
big machine, there was this other guy "helping", doing almost no damage
but his ineffectual firing caused the machine to pull loose from the
ropes. Just as I was trying to hit it where it hurts, of course.

Oh cool, I didn't know you had their steam.
I think I've only been gifted 3 games..

It's where all the cool kids hang out! You can tell that it's the Real
Thing because it has a built-in typo in the URL ;-)
There's even a comment once every three or four years! ;-)

Has anyone ever used Steam Groups?

When it comes to myself: Ever? Yes. Regularly? No.
But I'm old school. Usenet is as much 'social media' as I want to get.
If I need to chat online with friends, we still hop onto an IRC
channel. Facebook, Discord, all the rest: blargh. Tried 'em, didn't
see that they were doing anything better than what we already had,
except the new stuff had a lot of unwanted corporate nonsense
attached. We'd still be using the TALK command if it were still
viable. ;-)
It doesn't help that stuff like Steam groups is aimed more towards
immediate and short-form communications... and if you all know one
thing about me, it's that I /do not/ communicate short form. ;-)
