[@bcarvalho666]

That's a very nice and fun game, Vampire Survivors brought to the table a brand new type of game and there's several very good outhere, two I like specially, Soulstone Survivors (It's still in Early Access but has a lot of content already, 10 characters, skill trees for all, weapons to craft, several types of spells (nature, holy, void, and so on), Runes to apply different synergies, different game modes and curses that increases levels difficulty, it's a little bit more expensive, 10 dollars I think, but the final version will add a lot of more characters all kinds of stuff, the devs are very thoughtful with the players feedback, is a little insane sometimes with all happening on screen, for a survivors game can be a little be harsh on the GPU, but you can make the effects almost transparent to avoid the chaos. Really cool, have like more than 50 hours in it. Other one very nice is Army of Ruin. Halls of Torment is like the others, the kind of "just one more game" :)

[@jasondarlow6235]

In the realm of pixels, where heroes are born, There stands a figure, mighty and adorned. His name resounds, a legend we uphold, Behold the champion, known as Asmongold. With fiery mane and a glimmer in his eyes, He treads the lands where adventure lies. A warrior true, wielding keyboard and mouse, He conquers virtual worlds from his gaming house. In Azeroth's embrace, he found his fame, A master of World of Warcraft's grand game. With mighty hammer and unwavering might, He forges his path, a beacon of light. Through quests and battles, he leads the charge, Guiding his guildmates, a leader large. His voice reverberates, commanding and strong, As he vanquishes foes, righting every wrong. But Asmongold is more than pixels and gold, A voice of reason, a friend to behold. He shares his wisdom, a beacon of insight, With humor and candor, shining so bright. He lifts his viewers, his audience vast, With tales of triumph and lessons amassed. With passion unmatched, he entertains, Creating a community that forever remains. As the stream continues, the adventures unfold, Asmongold's legend, a tale to be told. In the realm of gaming, his legacy is bold, A champion of worlds, a hero untold. So raise your swords and cheer with might, For Asmongold, the guardian of the night. In the realm of pixels, his glory will stand, A legend forever, in the gaming land.
