The spring steam sale is March 19th. Are there any games that you've been waiting to purchase that you might get then? Me personally I have been looking at Routine and Outer Worlds 2.

    Ugh, dammit. I've got over 700 games in my steam library, quite a few I've probably never even played. I suppose I'll just be adding more random games I may or may not play to satisfy that "retail" therapy itch. But, realistically I will be buying Slay the Spire 2 even though it may not be discounted too much since it's newly EA.

    It won't be discounted, but I'm looking forward to Death Stranding 2 which is out that day.

    The next game I am paying for is 100% going to be Esoteric Ebb.

    Imagine Disco Elysium, but instead of a weird cyberpunk alternative history real world type setting, it's Forgotten Realms and uses D&D rules. That's Esoteric Ebb.

    Nothing specifically I’m looking for, but if the price is right I might pull the trigger on a few of my wishlist items, and then probably browse the store to add other things to it. I’ve got a ridiculous backlog of games, so there’s not a lot of motivation to pick up new stuff, but the sales tend to highlight stuff I wouldn’t normally search out or encounter randomly on the store, so I enjoy that aspect. Found a lot of very entertaining games that way.

    I'll probably pick up Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and depending on launch discounts and reviews, I might pick up Screamer as well, if the sale is still running by the 26th. There's no point in picking up anything else if I don't think I'll get around to it by the next Steam sale.

    I've only got $5 to spend so it depends on if any games on my wishlist go under 5, but that's pretty rare so I probably won't get anything.

    🤷 I have all the stuff I'm watching on my waitlist over on https://isthereanydeal.com/ ... so if something goes on a deep sale, it'll let me know.

    I end up buying most VR games that come out on steam so i'm sure i'll find interesting things :) maybe some that came out and where quickly forgotten as a lot are.

    Time to lose 100+ hours in Satisfactory.

    Crimson Desert (on PS5). The reviews are very mixed, mostly because the game does not hold your hand. I'm not a fan of hard games, but I am a fan of exploration, so I'm hoping that when I inevitably hit a brick wall boss I can just wander around doing other things until I'm upgraded enough to be able to take them on. Puttering around exploring open worlds is usually my favorite part.

    Then a Marvel Heroes Omega private server goes live on the 20th, so I'll be playing that as well for the first time since it shut down in 2018.

    I am considering Tainted Grail, I have heard good things about it. Also looking forward to Screamer and seeing how that is.

    Screamer wont be on sale most likely, but Tainted Grail might be. If its less than $30 USD I will probably get it.

    I should not be buying more games considering the size of my backlog. That being said, I currently am playing and enjoying a copy of Rise of the Ronin acquired courtesy of FitGirl, and so if that one goes on sale for ~€20 again I might buy it because I'd like to own it actually, I wouldn't mind supporting Team Ninja further and log my playtime on my Steam account.

    Also have some other wishlist items I'm itching to pull the trigger on if a deeper sale materialised:

    I recently grabbed division 2 and crew motorfest. Both on sale again for 90% off. More than enough content to keep me busy for a while.

    I just bought Opus Magnum which is on sale right now so maybe nothing, haven't had any games I've been eyeing except that
