Hey everyone,
We’re coming up on a year anniversary (I think) of this community and I thought I’d do some giveaways to celebrate that.
It’s semi-annoying that not all game stores have digital gift cards you can purchase so there are a few options here.
For the gifted games / gift cards it’ll be capped at $30 – after all, we’re talking about old games here right? If you want a few games that total up to $30, that’s cool too.
I’m going to pick two members at random from those who reply here as the winners.
Just comment with what option you prefer, and ideally tell us about what game you’d like to get (I’d prefer to limit the low-effort comments if we can. I like the discussions people have here so please do try to comment more than just “#1” ).
I’ll sticky this post and will leave it open for 2 weeks (end of April is the deadline)
Thanks for keeping this community a cool place with good discussions!
This contest is officially over!
The 2 randomly chosen winnders are:
Congrats!
I will be messaging you both individually to get your email addresses or steam/gog usernames so I can gift you your games!
Thanks again to everyone again for keeping this place going!
A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
This is very nice of you to do, thanks. I might use it on Dream Quest (2014), which is little-known as the predecessor to Slay the Spire, so probably #3, but any way would probably do.
EDIT: Wow, thank you so much!!!
Physical. I’ve been waiting to buy Elden Ring!
Can that be obtained under 30 dollars tho?
I think it has been, on sale! Also waiting for Sekiro or wanted to play Dead Cells, Celeste, or Hollow Knight
Well yeah technically there are several regions where Elden Ring was under 30 eur. Not in the euro area tho :(
I’d go with Chants of Sennaar as a direct Steam or GOG gift. Granted, it’s not exactly patient gaming since it came out last year, but I found it had a charming and somehow retro vibe when I tried and enjoyed the demo, and it certainly is an original game concept. I suggest you try it yourself !
Thanks for organizing this giveaway !
I just checked and I already had that in my wishlist! Definitely looks cool
Physical game gift card. I don’t like the idea of digital ownership, especially with the garbage that some companies have been pulling with rescinding digital ownership.
I’ve been interested in The Surge or the sequel, or maybe DOOM Eternal.
I don’t want any games just dropping in to say that this it’s nice your doing this for the community cheers.
Congrats! That’s so kind of you! In the rare event that I’d be picked I’ll save you some $$ I’d like to try Dave the Diver given the overwhelming positive feedback (especially on the Steam Deck).
Aye, I’ve always seen these things and never have a chance… Maybe that changes today
Edit - didn’t realize I should mention a game. I’ve been eyeing fallout 4 for modding and it’s hecking cheap atm
Option 3 ! Steam does have a digital gift card option however, but i can see the appeal and compatibility of the first one. Thanks ! Actually my birthday, but i wouldn’t want to cheat the chances at winning that giveaway.
Apparently I hadn’t checked in a while, because Steam used to not have digital gifts, I swear! But Yay, I do see they offer gifting digital codes now.
Thanks for the info!
Congratulations, keep up the good work!
Option 1. I am a console gamer and have been itching to play Pokemon Legends Arceus. Price hasn’t come down much… but that seems to be how Nintendo rolls.
Hey thanks for making the deadline so long, feels in tune with how Lemmy functions (In the off chance I win, roll the dice again)
Wouldn’t mind a direct game gift on steam! Been playing a few games my wife owns, mostly Power Wash Simulator, but would be good to be able to play when she’s using her library!
Probably would have to be RimWorld, people who love that game seem to really love it. Nearly pulled the trigger a couple of times.
I live rimworld, my wife is a massive sims fan and I bought rim world for her and she was hooked.
I was hooked for weeks but my brain gets hooked on things for a few weeks then it moves on to the next thing like a adhd riddled child
That’s so awesome and kind!
Can I donate $60 bucks to double amount of winners? I don’t have have much time to game, but I thought this was such a kind way to help out the community that Id like to help out as well.
That would be really awesome of you!
After I’ve picked two winners, we can have you pick two more and you can send them the codes directly as well.
We can make it the giveaway part 2.
When we get to announcing winners I’ll message you!
