I love turn based RPGs so what's good, what should I be getting, what's one of those games that's on such a good sale I'd be a fool to pass it up?

I didn't bought anything in steam sales in ages, since they changed Poland regional pricing to same as Germany and UK (countries with 5 times more median wages). I love (/s) how the games with -50% sale still cost the same as new games before pricing change and sales are usually 10-35% now. But i guess that was deserved prize for successfully reducing most of piracy in Poland.

but looking there, some worth playing:

  • Symphony of War, strategy not RPG, but damn good one in the old style, price is decent
  • King Arthur: Knight's tale, also more strategy than RPG and also very good, price is ok-ish but i wouldn't buy
  • Pathfinder WoR, was in Humble month ago or so, so the price isn't very appetizin, but i guess worth it if you missed
  • Dragon Quest IX - would be great game but PC port have traditionally borked controls, like really frigging borked
  • X-Com 2 -95% lol still best game in genre after 8 years
  • Atom RPG - poor brother of Fallout, but if you want to shoot AK-47 and exorcise evil spirits with the name of CPSU, the price is good
  • Encased - rather B-class but good rpg and for good price. Was free on Epic some time ago tho
