Also pausing. :)
Supraland demo/free weekend/whatever I played was meh.

They’re going to get some massive pausing this month. Supraland is cute, but will probably go really cheap soon.
Thanks for the correction.
Grid’s ultimate adds 12 more cars and 99 career events.
Barotrauma and supraland are super worth it for me.
I’m surprised folks aren’t more positive about Baro specifically.
Specifically because Barotrauma hasn’t dropped below 18 bucks on steam since it hit early access.

Barotrauma sounds cool, but I have nobody to play it with :P
We’re definitely gonna be playing it on our Discord if you wanna join.
I just went to Pause to see if they’d bribe me and they did, with a $2 discount. I think I can stay in for that price, since Supraland, Barotrauma, GRID 2019 and MoW Assault Squad 2 War Chest* appeal to me, and I don’t have them already.
*the War Chest has a remaster of the first MoW game.
That would be the Space Game Junkie one that Brian runs as part of his nascent media empire. :-)
It’s a pretty active community and there are a lot of devs that are a part of it too. Here you go: https://discord.gg/BEKBAx
Ah, ninja’d by the man himself.
Looks good to me!
Overload
The Messenger
Supraland
Grid (although I like my racing games on console, TV)
Hmm, there’s one other item to consider - anyone want to make a case for/against MoW:Assault Squad 2? Is it like CoH (not a big fan) or more like Close Combat (huge fan), or something else entirely?
I think it’s of the same lineage as Soldiers: Heroes of WW2 back when. Some Euro-jank, including bad voice acting and localization, such as, famously: “Target is in the reach zone!” I enjoyed being able to select a soldier and personally finesse his aim in the original Men of War. I wouldn’t get the bundle just for that, but why not check it out. It’s not as polished as CoH, which I really loved personally, but never managed even to finish the main campaign, since RTS’s are too fast for my slow reflexes.
Overload should be their headline game, it’s excellent. Supraland is also very good, as is Hellblade (although it’s disappeared so far down my backlog of shame that I keep forgetting it’s there). Isn’t The Messenger still on Game Pass? As for the rest, Barotrauma looked like my thing until I learned it was co-op, Felix looks… nope, Men of War 2 I have no interest in, Stygian is supposed to be quite poor, the other three look passably interesting but I think I’ll pause and spend the money on something I really want instead.

Why would you buy something you want instead of something that’s a good deal? That’s just weird.
I know, it’s a disease but I’ve learned to live with it.
First pause since they started this thing. Maybe it’s time to get off this ride, my backlog is already tremendous.
I agree. Looks like they buried the lead on this bundle.
I already have Overload though, and Hellblade. I need more info about the rest of the games, but at the moment I’m leaning towards pausing again.
Skipping two is easy this month. King’s Bird & Stillness of the Wind are both in the itch Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality (link). No steam keys there.
