Kind of sad to see all the biggest earners are sequels.
It's just going to reinforce remakes instead of fresh ideas even more.
I guess we are all just too predictable and like our safe spots rather than trying new things.

The best games that Steam offers right now are sequels. It's as simple as that.

It also looks like games sales are not like movies (which is a common perception), e.g. it's not all about the first few weeks or the pre-orders. A game like Fallout4 was released in early November 2015, yet it is still platinum.

Maybe if games were released in a finished state... I know for sure myself I'm not going to buy many new releases when stuff like what happened with dishonor ed 2 is the norn

Just picked up Batman: Arkham Knight complete edition for $10 during winter sale.
Such a good game.
Definitely worth waiting to play this one since all the launch issues are fixed.
Get solid 90FPS (limited to 90 in setting for some reason) on max setting on my 970.
Kind of sad we have to wait a year for a game to finished after release but there are so many games released all the time it's not that hard to wait it out.
