I went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games, picked up Darkchaser, Oxygen Not Included, and UFO50, and also grabbed Cities: Skylines. Got used to the launch prices of some AAA games, buying these discounted low-priced games really doesn’t hurt much.

    I have too much of a backlog of games i haven’t played yet. I did not buy anything. Friendly reminder to play your playlist before buying a new game.

      This is truth, although i did pick up Cities:Skylines. I’ve got to get through all the other Paradox games from the time they had the bundle sale

      Yeah I got the steam deck in the early spring this year and am still trying to get through Witcher 3 and fallout 4. I have a handful of games I got for PC back 15 years ago on steam that I still need to work on after that

    Absolutely nothing, like in the past like 5 years.

    Currently (re)playing all Half-Life and Portal games in order they were released.

    The only thing I care about on the store right now is the factorio dlc, and that’s never gonna go on sale. I’ll probably buy that once I finish all the achievements for satisfactory.

      Get it as soon as you can afford it. As you have already noticed, the price only goes up, and it never goes on sale. The people that made this game know that they made digital crack, and aren’t inclined to spread the addiction.

    Just bought Riven, I’m liking it quite a lot so far. I see why it’s a classic. Love the feeling of being dropped into a completely alien world.

    Deep Rock Galactic Survivor. I like to play casual games after work to de-stress a bit. Mostly tower defense games. Hoping this one will work well

      I bought that Saturday morning at full price. No regerts. In 5 days, I dumped about 30 hours into it.

        Found myself doing “tips and tricks” research already, so I think it’s safe to say I’ll be dumping a lot of time into the game

    Finally got Witcher 3 on my PC so I can play that again.

    Me and the (long distance) gf bought It Takes Two

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance

    Death’s Door, cute souls like

    Spider-Man: Miles Morales

    And God of War Ragnarok wasn’t on sale but I was waiting to see if it would be, so I technically bought it during the autumn sale

    Not on steam, but I bought Haven and The Talos Principle 2 on GoG.

    I already played Haven on GamePass a few years ago, but I wanted to own it because it’s very good (also to support the developers). As for Talos, I played the original twice and absolutely loved it, so I’m eager to play the sequel.

      I played Talos principal 2 this year and it honestly blew me away. It goes without saying the puzzles were intriguing but the story, world building, atmosphere and dialogue are the real stars of the experience.

    I really wanted to try Starfield but can’t justify the price. Like I want to buy it, but I also don’t have that kind of money to spend. Might start asking around my local friends to see if any of them have it so I can library share with them
