I do not buy if I really really want the game., so, there are many games in my library that I haven't played because I got them free
post
I just realized it says "no memes" in the side bar.
Sorry about that. Will be more careful next time.
Let me know when Steam starts accepting the cartoon moths that fly out of my empty wallet.
I'm going to play all those games! Really! Some day.
What is that third representation of money? Paper bills, credit card and [???]. Is it a ring?
It's a wallet
That's a wallet containing 50€ notes
My rule is I can't buy a game unless I am going to play it that same day.
Even in cases where the rule causes me to miss a sale and end up buying the game later, I'm sure it still saves me money, and - more importantly - saves a tremendous amount of regret and stress caused by buying games that would just sit my library unplayed.
Jokes on you I have no money left and huge backlog!
I've been making a huge dent in my library since last year. I've fully completed over half of my 200+ library. I shouldn't, but will probably get some new games to add to the decreasing backlog so that I can have more backlog to play! :P
I've got like... 3 games I'll get at the moment, one's not even going to be on pc for like 6 months, another isn't out to next month and the other just came out so probably won't be on sale :l
GIVE IT TO ME! I NEED IT. I sold a good portion of my Steam inventory in preparation!
Steam sale IS NOT A REAL SALE.
Consumers have associated the experience as a sale, but the last few steam sales I have only found very very niche stuff actually on sale, everything else isn't really on sale it just has meaningless percents next to them.
Edit wow so I am really not in the majority here with my opinion haha, ok, maybe I am seeing this wrong? Honestly, the last couple steam sales I have compared the sales going on to previous sales <1 month previous or less away and the sales just didn't look that good from that perspective.
I am not saying games aren't going on sale in the Steam sale, I am arguing the sales are mediocre compared to random sales throughout the year, but again... I probably just have a warped vision of this because clearly people think otherwise.
Use SteamDB to check price histories. Steam Sales often present the lowest historical price on any game.
As in, there aren't discounts? I only ever look st my wishlist during steam sales and I see plenty of discounts and I dont see the msrp having been raised or anything
Meh I don't typically see pricecuts that are that meaningful, on isthereanydeal the steam sales often just don't impress me in how they compare.
I don't mean to rain on the parade, the deals aren't bad and I love steam so shrugs
just because the things you want aren't on sale... doesn't mean the sale doesn't exist
Meaningful to whom?
I've gotten at least 50% off compared to the day I wishlist something on every game that I've waited on a sale for. I know this because I only buy wishlist stuff when it is at least 50% off
