Recommended Steam games to buy in the 2020 Winter Sale

It's too cold, Samurai Spirits!(greeting)
What games did you buy on Steam this year?
Are you stacking it? Are you playing it?
Yes, it's almost time for the winter sale.
Up until now, Akihabara Base Camp has been running a "1 Yen One Game Challenge," but this time we'd like to introduce some recommended games "before the winter sale begins."

Although it's clearly a hobby
"What should I buy in the winter sale?"
If you are thinking this, I hope you will find this useful.
There may be cases where previously introduced items are introduced again.
"I really want to push it."
I hope you think so!

Grim Dawn [Hack & Slash]

I previously wrote "Games I'd buy even if there wasn't a saleI would like to introduce Grim Dawn again, which I introduced in ``.''
If you want to buy something even if there is no sale, that can be rephrased as saying that you should buy it when there is a sale.

The difficulty level is a little high even on normal mode.
There is a lot to remember, and the game is designed so that you gradually understand the system as you make mistakes, such as when developing your character.
It is easy to get into for people who are familiar with foreign hack-and-slash games.
It also supports Japanese translation and a pad, so it's okay even if you don't understand English.

The DLC adds new stories and classes, so if you want to enjoy the game to the fullest, it's a good idea to purchase the DLC as well.

Persona 4 The Golden [JRPG]

This is a complete Steam port (long) of Persona 4, which was released on the PS2, with additional elements and other features thrown in and ported to the PS Vita.
Addition of the third semester, new communities, new characters, new BGM, and more...
This is a title that can only be enjoyed by those who have only ever played the original version.

The port is highly polished, with beautiful graphics at a high frame rate.
There's no sense of incongruity even when playing on a large screen.
It also includes the network functionality added with the VITA, giving a glimpse into how serious Atlus is about porting the game to PC.

The regular price of 1,980 yen is also quite reasonable, so it's great that it's easy to purchase even if you miss the sale.
Persona 4 is still as popular as ever and is our top pick!

CLOUDPUNK [Cyberpunk]

Cyberpunk Transportation.
The cyberpunk genre has become more familiar recently.
What genre? Play CLOUDPUNK to get a feel for the atmosphere! Cyberpunk is a game that revolves around the atmosphere!
We load our luggage into a vehicle called a HOVA and drive through the city at night.
Glowing neon lights, mysterious foods, strange Japanese...
A stereoscopic cyberpunk world is here.

The game is simple, involving transporting packages given to you by clients, but what is particularly noteworthy is the world view.
The exciting near-future world that people imagined in the 90s unfolds within the game.
This is a game to enjoy the atmosphere.
The negative aspects, like the controls being a bit... or the polygons being a bit... are actually not a big deal.I ordered a meat dish and got a meat dish! Yay!
It's a game that you play with that kind of mindset.

This is a title that will appeal to people who enjoy cyberpunk, synth music, and a don't-think feel.

Life is Strange [Adventure]

I would recommend the original Life is Strange rather than the new 2.
"What game would you like to erase your memory and play again?'
If asked this question, I would answer immediately that it is a game with such a great story.

The future changes with the series of small, everyday choices we make.
What would you do if you could choose the best option to protect what is important to you and your loved ones?
One day, the protagonist, Max, gains the power to rewind time.
Using this power, you can redo a variety of choices, from small everyday choices to major life-changing decisions.

However, as he uses his power, he is eventually forced to make an ultimate choice...
Is this really the right choice? Or is it the wrong choice?
It is a masterpiece that will leave you with a variety of emotions after you finish playing.
The very first episode, Episode 1, is free to play, so why not give it a try?

Life is Strange is recommended to be played with a pad.
If you want to play exactly as the game describes, we recommend the Xbox controller.

Crypt of the NecroDancer [Rhythm Game]

Many people will know this work as it has been ported to PS4 and Switch.
The system combines roguelike and rhythm games.

Move your character in time with the music, moving, fighting, and shopping rhythmically.
Enemies also act in rhythm, so you must instantly decide the enemy's position on the map, your attack range, how many steps it will take to make contact with the enemy, where to obtain items, etc.

You have to constantly move your character around, but it's fun just moving the character along to the rhythm.
The DLC will also add characters and music from Danganronpa, so if you're a fan of that series, be sure to check it out!

This game is designed to be controlled using the directional pad on a gamepad, so it works great with a PS4 gamepad!

Street Fighter V [Fighting Game]

I want to play a fighting game for the first time in a while. It's my first fighting game, so what should I play?
For those who are looking for something like this, I recommend StreetFighter V.
WhateverThe fact that there are so many players is a blessing for fighting games..

Cross-play is also possible between the PS4 and PC versions, so it's great that you can play against other players regardless of the console.
To be honest, it will take a little practice and a good playing environment to be able to win a match, but this is not a trivial issue.
As you play, thinking, "Just one more battle!", you'll realize that time has passed...and by that point, you'll have already stepped into the Street Fighter 5 swamp!

If you're just starting out, the only option is to purchase the "Champion Edition."
This is a great value package that includes all DLC up to Season 4, and it's also affordable!

If you're going to play fighting games, you'll also want an arcade stick.
The number of people using pads is increasing, but arcade sticks still have a strong share of the market when it comes to 6-button fighting games like Street Fighter 5!
↓There is also an article introducing arcade controllers, so be sure to check it out!!

Gal☆Gun Double Peace [Gun Shooting]

Commonly known as: Perverted Time Crisis.
It's no exaggeration to say that this is the ultimate silly game that will make anyone smile.
I don't dare say much.
Please watch the PV and decide whether to buy it or not...

Don't miss the Steam sale [2020 Winter SALE]

Steam's big sale is your chance to get the game you've been interested in.
Even if it's a genre I don't usually play, I've always been interested in it.
I think the best thing to do is just buy it.
・If you're unsure, buy it.
・I'll buy it even though I'm not sure if I'll play it.
If it's cheaper, think about it before you buy it and then regret it!
This is the basics of Steam sales.
