Good selection of games. I'll keep it for myself just in case. Although I consider myself an advanced gamer, in fact I rarely experiment and prefer to play only DOTA 2. I already know everything from and to about this game, I play regularly and always watch the DOTA 2 match schedule so as not to skip. Each game is just a delight for me after a hard day at the office.
All these games were really good. I bought them all on steam. tThis platform is really comfortable to use. And if someone is wondering which platform to choose, I recommend reading this post. It illustrates the most important advantages of each platform: gamerseo.com/blog/epic-games-vs-st...
