I’m finding this sale underwhelming, and my backlog is already huge. Might skip it this time.

Edit - okay, found some good stuff. A lot of the tables for Pinball FX were on deep sales, and with the Legacy packs I got them even cheaper (some I owned for PFX3 already, and some I bought legacy for both).

New Heretic+Hexen remaster

Some DLC for Across the Obelisk as my wife and I play that one together.

Still an underwhelming sale, but at least not a total bust.

What are you buying?

Groceries, maybe I can swing something during the winter sale.

The thing about sales, are that if they happen every month is no longer a big event.

I feel like an old man yelling at a cloud here, but it really seems like everything is on sale all the time, but the sales aren't actually sales they're just the price a thing should be

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(-70%), The Banner Saga(-80%) or Salt and Sanctuary(-75%).

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.

I already have Balatro, why would I need another game?

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?

Nothing, too busy playing Hades II. Death to Chronos!

I thought this said “Autism Sale” and got excited.

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.

Ugh, I have too much to play in my backlog already. I'll probably pick up one game that I want to play eventually, maybe Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon.

I've been playing Outer Worlds, though, so I'm saving up for the 2nd one just in case it's good. Given Avowed's release, my hopes aren't high. However, the first game is so intensely 6/10 that if they can just improve a tad bit on the formula, I think I would like it a lot.

Maybe none, maybe a couple; lately I have resisted sales since my backlog is so big. That being said, some of the more interesting ones on my wishlist are on sale this time around. I might pick one or two of these:

First person shooters:

• Trepang2 (F.E.A.R. homage) - 60% off, $12
• Prodeus (boomer shooter) - 40% off, $15
• Metal: Hellsinger (boomer shooter) - 75% off, $8

Indie/puzzle/chill:

• The Talos Principle 2 - 70% off, $9
• Everspace 2 - 70% off, $15
• Ultimate Chicken Horse (casual/party couch co-op) - 65% off, $5
• Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition - 90% off, $3
• Untitled Goose Game - 55% off, $9
• It Takes Two - 75% off, $10
• Kaze and the Wild Masks (2D platformer) - 80% off, $3
• The Forgotten City - 75% off, $6
• Dreamscaper (indie roguelike) - 80% off, $5

Also:

• Persona 4 Golden (JRPGs aren't really my thing, but I hear that this is literally one of the best games ever) - 50% off, $10
• God of War - 60% off, $20
• Desperados III (isometric tactics) - 90% off, $4
• Ori and the Will of the Wisps (2D platformer) - 75% off, $8
• Sifu - 60% off, $16

what are ya buyin??

Fixed that for you

Does Factorio ever go on sale? I think I’ve had it wishlisted for over a year now.

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.

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.

Don't tempt me to spend even more money on games I will forget I bought 😅

I bought "Cult of the Lamb". It's not a spectacular discount but good enough to go try it out.

Nothing lol, I have bills to pay.

I have room in my budget to buy maybe one game per year, and it's never when a sale is on... *sigh*

I have…

Just Shapes & Beats

Nine Sols

Smushi Come Home

CATO: Buttered Cat

Is This Seat Taken?

GRANBLUE FANTASY: Relink

Ballionaire

Pepper Grinder

Like a Dragon: Ishin!

…in my cart, but considering I‘m unlikely to get around to any of them this year, I‘ll let them sit in the cart throughout the sale and see whether I’ll pull the trigger on anything.

Picked up Rogue Trader, Death Road to Canada, and Doom Eternal for $20. Not bad.

I will be playing Silksong until the winter sale, but I can recommend this for the sale price that they're asking (0.75€ at the moment).

As someone still halfway through SilkSong, I am immune

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.

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.

I might pick up monster train and doom eternal. Yeah, I still haven't played doom eternal.

Probably these: Doom Eternal (3.99€), Dust to End (2.99€), Night of the Dead (8.69€), Days Gone - Broken Road DLC (5€) and Sniper Elite 5 (5€)

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.

I have a huge backlog, both in steam and physical, so no, thanks….
