Looking at deckbuilders. I picked up Griftlands for XBOX for $8, which is strongly reviewed, and discovered that Monster Train 2 is on Game Pass, and I've already installed it. Doom: Dark Ages is also on Game Pass, and I installed that for a little holiday mayhem.
Regarding Steam, I'm going to grab Spiderman Remastered, but I'll wait until tomorrow or Saturday so that I have plenty of time to decide whether to keep it or not. I'm also going to pick up a couple more deckbuilders. Cobalt Core, which is like a cross between FTL and a deckbuilder. And Shogun Showdown, which is a more classic roguelike deckbuilder in the style of Slay The Spire and Across The Obelisk.
I'm pondering a couple of sale items. The Persona Collection is only $10 more than Persona 5 Royal alone, though, since I get Persona 4 Golden on Game Pass, as well as Metaphor ReFantazio, not to mention the Octopath games, it's not really much of a hole to fill. The more intriguing option is a Silent Hill F and Silent Hill 2 combo pack for the XBOX for $80. Given that SH f is $55 and SH 2 is $40, the combo for $80 is quite a good deal. The only things holding me back are that I've already spent quite a lot, and being newer games, they'll likely drop significantly in the next year. That and I'm not a big horror gamer, and Silent Hill f is the primary reason that I'd buy -- but that game is bound to drop significantly over time given how new it is, and that there's a considerably mixed reaction to the game.
Anyway, I've got a few days to think. The one disappointment was Dune: Imperium, which sounds like a good game, right up my deckbuilding alley, but it's not on sale.
