Steam Next Fest, which is a regular event for showcasing upcoming games, is happening now on steam and will continue until February 12 at 10:00 AM PST (UTC-8).

With hundreds of demos available, even if you're only interested in a fraction of the games it's going to be difficult to try everything before the event ends. With that in mind, I'm hoping people can use this thread to share their thoughts on the titles they've played.

Which games did you enjoy, and which do you think suck? Please share your thoughts!

I was just reading an article about Homeworld 3 and it sounds like I was mistaken about the online/skirmish thing. It sounds like it's some sort of PvE coop mode or something. Still not my cup of tea. Still excited for the single player campaign.

I'm with you on the patient gaming. With few exceptions, purchasing the new hotness on day 1 means paying more for a worse experience. By the time a game goes on sale, the major bugs and balance issues will have all been fixed (if they'll get fixed at all), so what's the rush? Most gamers these days, myself included, have big enough backlogs that we'll never be in the position of not having something fun available to play anyway.

I feel slightly obligated to buy it day one.

You can play it by yourself! It's 3 missions in a row that are slightly different each time. You can play it coop or singleplayer.

That wasn't clear to me either, I will try it again.
