What are you buying?
Groceries, maybe I can swing something during the winter sale.
I’m finding this sale underwhelming, and my backlog is already huge. Might skip it this time.
They’ve been pretty underwhelming for a while now.
You used to get crazy deals on games only a few months old. Now it’s just the same 50% off a five year old game before being ramped back up to full price between sales.
There’s a few bargains of stuff you may have missed, but likely they’ve been an Epic freebie, or on PSPlus or in a Humble Bundle by now.
I saw a game DLC I play that is ancient in game terms (Battletech) and they still want $15 per DLC.
That’s barely a sale imo.
Battletech rocks tho
I think it’s more discounted on GOG
Yeah. I’ve missed out on Yakuza 0 for 5€, now it’s always 12€. I mean it’s probably worth it, but not when I already own a ton of games that I still want to play.
Basically me on the last few of these sales. Such a backlog I can no longer justify even the deep discounts.
I have no data on this, but it doesn’t feel like the discounts are all that deep anymore
Picked up Doom Eternal for like $4, which is not bad at all. Believe can get $4 of gameplay out of it even if its not as good as predecessor.
As someone still halfway through SilkSong, I am immune
I’m feeling like a lot of y’all. My backlog is already immense, and i don’t even need DLC for the games I have, which are mostly all huge and never ending anyway. Have we reached peak gaming? Are we now making games faster than anyone can play them?
Did the customary scroll through my 50-game wishlist for irresistible 80-90% discounts and basically came up empty. Most of the deep sales are games that will surely be on another deep sale before I finish my upcoming few planned games to play, nevermind my whole backlog. Normally I end up adding something to the pile out of the old “well this is too good to pass up” but for once my wallet might be safe.
Maybe I give in to temptation and pickup one of Virgo Versus The Zodiac, The Banner Saga or Salt and Sanctuary.
It’s so bad, OMG. For +30 games on my wishlist, not a single difference from the Summer sale, and about half of them were already on sale for the same price before the Autumn sale began.
Why even bother with seasonal sales at this point.
Don’t tempt me to spend even more money on games I will forget I bought 😅
Playing Hades 2 on desktop, Hollow Knight on deck, and Anno 117 is coming out in a month… Not to mention the five other games I added to my backlog this year and haven’t touched yet.
I will be skipping this sale, methinks.
I might pick up monster train and doom eternal. Yeah, I still haven’t played doom eternal.
I really like Monster Train. Its my favorite after Slay the Spire.
Monster train 2 is even better!
I’m already playing Hades 2 and FF Tactics comes out tomorrow.
So that, I guess, then probably nothing. /shrug.
Steam sales lose their luster when they’re so frequent.
Atomic Heart and Cyberpunk 2077 are the only two on my list that are discounted enough.
Maybe, maybe not. I’m not close to running out of unplayed games.
CB 2077 is really good and probably worth it if you enjoy open world games like GTA, skyrim, or RDR.
Atomic Heart I have been having a hard time getting into, for all the commonly cited reasons. The game looks gorgeous and its a fun setting, but you actually spend a lot of time in boring grey hallways fighting the same robots, and the combat just isnt especially great. Performance has been real hit or miss as well (I’m on Linux through proton).
I’m seeing a lot of games with what seems like a much steeper discount than usual. First thing I do when there’s a steam sale is look at my wishlist and sort by discount and there are a lot of games on sale for 90% off, many of which only a couple dollars.
This is my first time actually looking at the new Steam store UI and I have to say that I don’t like it. They seem determined to fit less and less information on the screen and make it harder to find content. I didn’t like their previous UI revamp either for the same reason, but this one is worse. That’s fine Valve, my backlog is eternal, I won’t buy more games if you make it hard.
Can’t find anything worth playing so far.
