Thank you for participation, giveaway is closed.
Thank you so much! :D You litterally just made my day! :) I just had a huge exam that didn't go as well as I was hoping, so I was bummed out, but this was a nice surprise and definately put a big smile on my face! :D
Well, I missed the excitement, but a very nice GA!

Of the games on your WL, I only own 4 (Ember/Staglands/LoG2/TL2) and haven't yet played Staglands. I never finished LOG2 - as much as I should love it, and it's hard to pick out why it didn't stick for me, I couldn't finish it.

We have a 8-10 others in common as wishlisted though.

I quite liked Ember and TL2, though both have some caveats. Ember is pleasant but not particularly deep for an RPG, and TL2 is a solid, if perhaps not life-changing, ARPG with great character builds/combat, but meh level design and a linear and forgettable storyline.
Thanks you BeatriceElysia for the giveaway. Late bump to express my gratitude :)

Also have Ember and SitS myself, and also haven't yet played SitS. Did write a nearly-3500-word review of Ember though, but yes, has its quirks (mainly the controls made for tablets, which nevertheless work better on a PC than the made-for-consoles ones that tend to be the norm for bigger titles (and not only)... but also be careful if you run it off a HDD instead of a SSD since it reads off disk constantly and at quite a high speed, no idea what it uses RAM for since it seems to just stream all data constantly off disk, so there's wear to consider) and the character development really lacks any sort of depth (and skills determined solely by equipment? really?), but combat is the core and it can get nicely tactical later on, and actually the books to be found are quite enjoyable and can be a goal in themselves to find all the parts and read them, at least for those who like reading.
If TL2 meant Torchlight 2 on the other hand, oy, did play and finish the first after being given away for free, but didn't like any moment of it, was saying at the time that it was like somebody took something like one location from a poor free-to-play MMO and thought it’d make a good single player game in itself, so that's definitely not a series I'll be touching again.
Back to SitS, both excited and scared of it, with all I saw about difficulty, so keep putting off even trying to start.
