15 hidden gems to grab before the end of the Steam Spring Sale
https://www.pcgamer.com/steam-spring-sale-2023-hidden-gems/
Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in! Barely three months after my winter sale roundup, they start slashing prices again. Good thing there’s a seemingly boundless well of cool and obscure games from the past year just waiting to be featured, and I’m just the man to find them.
The rest of the PC Gamer crew got together like some kind of bargain-hunting Voltron to assemble this list of the big must-haves and better-known indies from the current Spring sale. For those looking for something a little weirder and wilder, here’s 15 that you’ve probably never heard of but are no less worthy of your time, attention and money. All of the below games are undersold and were released in the past year. Most are on the shorter side, but boundless and overstuffed open worlds are what AAA is for, right?
>> Who knows, you may find a game you didn't know about that you may like.

Fallout: London is an ambitious DLC-sized mod that brings the player into the nuclear apocalypse all the way to the doorsteps of Parliament. This is a Total Conversion mod that aims to encapsulate the gritty, adventurous nature of the Fallout games with a new world, factions, storylines, NPCs, weapons, creatures, and much more.
>> It's a 12 minutes long video.

Modder creates tribute to their Elder Scrolls-loving mum so 'she can live on in every adventure I take in Tamriel'
https://www.pcgamer.com/modder-creates-tribute-to-their-elder-scrolls-loving-mum-so-she-can-live-on-in-every-adventure-i-take-in-tamriel/
A modder named VIIVII has created a trio of mods in tribute to their departed, Elder Scrolls-loving mum. The In Memory of my Mom mods for Skyrim, Oblivion, and Morrowind add protective shrines to each game that confer a few buffs to your health, magicka, stamina, or stats. They are very slight things indeed, but I'm afraid to say their emotional impact on me specifically is pretty much equivalent to a meteor strike.
"My mom Teneele passed away in January," reads the description on all three mod pages, "She was only 46 and in that time I have been trying to cope with the fact she is gone". They decided that one way to do that would be to honour her memory in some of "the games she introduced me to."
VIIVII has made a few mods before, but enlisted help from Elder Scrolls modding forums to figure out how to do what they wanted to do properly. Once they'd figured it out, they added a set of shrines to the games' starting areas, each one accompanied by a tablet that "just says she can live on in every adventure I take in Tamriel." The shrines' placement is very deliberate: VIIVII says that "Since my Mom always suffered from a severe case of restartitis," they placed the shrines close to each game's beginning.
