Most links below are from Steam, the GOG links are added next to them.

Great indies!

  • Releases of Trails and Ys from NIS America and XSEED are usually DRM-free even on Steam, especially the older ones.
  • For Trails series in Korean and Chinese, see Clouded Leopard Entertainment homepage, which also has discounts
  • In August 2021, NIS America removed regional prices on GOG for many games, making prices in countries like Brasil, South Africa, and Russia match the prices in dollars. The regional prices on Steam are still there.

    Very good list! Thanks! The Yakuza collection 0 - 6 is also 35€ on steam though. I want to buy it on gog eventually, but I have already played them on ps, so I want to wait till finances are better… 🙄

    If you haven’t played the Ys series yet, I definitely recommend trying them. Suggested playing orders can be found here. If you start the first game and hate the combat system, skip it and the second game. The rest use a different system.

    The Trails games are also great.

    Updated the list with EVERYTHING I could find during the night. As you see here, the list is huge and this shows why recommendation algorithms are so important nowadays.

    So is advice from real people! Please tell here about things you’ve bought on this sale and which ones you would recommend yourself!
