Shadowrun!
(I just realized I own the wrong Shadowrun, but $2.99 is latte price).
A shorter, smaller game makes a good trial balloon for these kinds of games clubs, in my experience.
I hear you on the short game to kick things off part, it was more the "this is the game until the end of April" part I was less sure of.
Well, if anyone feels the same, or finishes Dragonfall by mid-February and is twiddling their thumbs, they can join me in running through all 3 games.
i ran through the vanilla campaign not long ago, but if I get through Dragonfall early, I could do with replaying the Hong Kong campaign too. There's a bunch of side-mission stuff there I skipped first time through.
I own neither, but would pick up Dragonfall at that price, so that's my vote.
A shorter game is also a good trial run for me given the demands of my super easy-going 15 month old.
Yeah, one thing I kind of like about the game clubs is playing at a pace that allows for reflection and discussion.
Shadowrun sounds good to me. Really nearly any game on this list would have been fine as I own them and have never finished them.
Both!
I'm home from work, not feeling well. Not up to much expect maybe a vidya game. Anyone mind if I go ahead and start Shadowrun?
Baldur’s Gate: EE for me! Although Clocky makes some very good points.

I actually just installed a bunch of mods for BG:EE in case it got chosen, including what I assume is the NPC mod you did some Translation for? so I'm tempted to run through this as well on my own time to see what's different!

I...might have already played through the prologue again earlier today *innocent whistle*

One thing to note - for those who don't already know, and who might want to customise your character portraits before you start playing, you CAN actually add your own custom portraits to the game even though it's not officially supported for some BIZARRE reason (you just have to backup then override one of the relevant portraits in the source folder for the game), e.g:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Shadowrun Dragonfall Director's Cut\Dragonfall_Data\StreamingAssets\ContentPacks\berlin\art\portraits
(make sure you get the right folder if you have more than one of the shadowrun games installed)
and then backup one of the images you want to replace, e.g. pc_elffemale_02c_samurai.png
Crop your preferred image to a 212x278 .PNG and then save it over the old name.
(make sure that the image you are renaming is of the preferred race and gender for your character)
Bingo! Custom character portrait.
Shadowrun for me.
Shadowrun gets my vote as well. Gotta finally use that kickstarter backer key!
I played about 1/2 of Shadowrun Returns (the first game) about 3 years ago. Maybe I’ll actually go ahead and finish it finally before jumping into Dragonfall (assuming it wins ).
Deckers hacked the election.
Baldurs Gate won in the states that matter.
It should be clear by now that Icewind Dale was the real winner. Feel the frostbern.

Yup, that's the one!!! It's a *BIG* mod, with a banter pack (characters spoke very little in the vanilla game), quests and interjections and full romances with Ajantis, Branwen, Coran, Dynaheir, Shar-Teel and Xan. We were quite a few translators working on this, because it's just so freaking huge. I onyl worked on the Xan romance, interjections and quests.
Dooo it! Dooo it! Dooo it!
I definitely haven't already started. *shifty eyes*
I already installed Shaowrun in anticipation. Let’s do this.
Love this idea. I'm in!
Cross posting for anyone that doesn't have this month's game:
Timely deal on the Shadowrun Triple Pack
Jumped on that deal just to get Hong Kong at a discount - PM me if anyone needs a key for Dragonfall or Returns.
Long time lurker, but would love to join in with this!
I'm interested.
