Yes it was, though the autumn and spring sales are considered not as big as the summer and winter ones.

Factory gamers were eating good this year.
I believe 51 Games came out right before the stricter PEGI policy. Same year at least. The whole thing is very silly.
I believe SOMA is less horror-y and generally more approachable than the other frictional games. It may be because it's a scifi story, like the other games you mentioned enjoying.
I used to hate horror games, but I realized I actually just hated bad horror games. SOMA is a good horror game. It has a compelling story, fantastic atmosphere and sound design, and the frictional games devs are great at balancing the suspenseful moments with more relaxed thoughtful moments. All of this makes getting through a stressful or scary bit of the game more worthwhile.
Like Ashtear said, the safe mode prevents the monsters in the few areas they patrol from 'getting' you, which I would say somewhat gets rid of some of the suspense. However, after you've been caught once and have to reload a checkpoint, they just become an annoyance so I wouldn't blame anyone for turning safe mode on.
Playing through Phantom Liberty now. So far it’s a breath of fresh air in a save I’ve been playing on and off since launch.
I’m only 17 hours in and my base is continually getting beat up by medium and big biters
Thankfully the new one doesn’t require further downloading. The trade off is that even more of the game is server-side.
1900’s to end date would like a word with you.
Loot boxes and what is essentially a market of nft’s. Otherwise they’re pretty cool I guess.
It almost happened too
Really? The key art even had two divers on it during early access. I just remember being kinda bummed when they said it wasn’t happening. I don’t think they knew how their game would turn out at that point and it did turn out great in the end.
Just got to the second city and I think I’m hooked.
