I wishlist every game that looks like it has potential; check it every couple weeks to see if there’s any 90% off deals. Pretty much don’t bat an eye at anything below that.

slazer2au ,

Don’t you get emails when something on your wishlist is on sale?

Alternatively you can set up alerts with isthereanydeal.com

Nythos ,

The steam mobile app also gives you a notification when a game in your wish list goes on offer

JokeDeity ,

ITAD checks all the legitimate sites that sell steam games as well, often saving you way more money.

JokeDeity ,

I should get paid for how much I’ve promoted that incredible website. I check it minimum weekly.

I have that disabled or blocked. I don’t check my email all that often, and most of the alerts I did get were below the purchase-worthy discount, so it wound up just being a lot of spam.

You can set percentages in ITAD for notifications.

You can set it for “regular price”, then in the “percentage offset” setting, you can put 90% or whatever.

Just a thought.

That’s cool but where is your 2023 wishlist?

mustardman ,

I wouldn’t bother reading it. It’s the same as 2022’s list with only one more game added to it.

slazer2au ,

And none purchased.

Peafield , in How big is your guys' wishlists?

Yours is so big it’s caused a black hole and sent us back in time.

ryannathans ,

Thanks babe

angrymouse , in How big is your guys' wishlists?

I dont remember mine but i believe you have a bit of an issue with prioritization

thisisawayoflife , in How big is your guys' wishlists?

I’ve got so many Bill’s hats on it

While the numbers themselves are just a small fraction of actual usage (as I guess most people using it don’t do it thru steam), it doubled in about a week.

What would be an “educated” guess of steam/non-steam users ratio? 1:50? 1:100?

I’ve been waiting for defenders quest 2 for the better part of 7 years now! Very excited it’s getting closer.

Monaco 2 is looking much more large scale of a game than the first one, but the first one was such stupid fun multiple, I feel like it’ll be gta2 to gta2 upgrade in gameplay and graphics.

Streets of rogue 2 is coming, that was a fun one.

I’m also excited for book of aliens, book of demons was in no way original but a great parody game with original styling and good humor. I’m curious to see how the developers do an rts/StarCraft style genre, their diablo was on point.

Split signal is hopefully anothe very simple to play puzzle games from one of my favorite 2 minute play time window games lyne.

But far and away the one I’m most looking forward to is defenders quest 2.

I feel like that’s not how you measure a game engine usage, the large majority probably don’t install Godot via Steam, just looking at the numbers it’s a very small sample which might not represent game devs in general

MasterNerd ,
@MasterNerd@lemm.ee avatar

Can confirm. I use Godot and didn’t even know it was on steam

alternative_factor ,
@alternative_factor@kbin.social avatar

It might mean something though, FFXIV is a classic example of a game that almost nobody plays on Steam, but its Steam charts line up somewhat well with the game's increasing popularity especially with Shadowbringers and Endwalker. Of course you have to look at actual data to back that up, but soemtimes it can show trends.

Dan ,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(statistics)

A doubling of usage amongst steam users is probably representative of a large uptake of Godot overall

Cethin ,

For sure an uptick, but who knows by how much? I agree this is useful for showing something, but it’s hard to know what really from this alone.

Knusper ,

I imagine, Godot doesn’t collect usage data on its own. So, this is likely the best data there is…

MJBrune ,

Eh, I feel like the sampling is clearly biased toward those who would install a game engine through a service that auto-updates it. (Novices and hobbyists.)

derpgon ,

And - thats exactly what that means…? An uptake in GODOT usage would mean novices and newbies are trying it out. Every new user is a newbie.

MJBrune ,

Sure but it doesn’t really reflect the studios switching to Godot. I think they are likely switching to unreal.

derpgon ,

Of course it doesn’t, it’s a number that days how many people are running the app, that’s it.

MJBrune ,

Yup just pointing that out because some folks aren’t seeing that. Not everything is an argument.

Ostrichgrif , in Which upcomming indie game you have high hopes for ?

Not upcoming but dark and darker just released and has been the best gaming experience I’ve had in years. Would highly recommend to almost anyone
