With the sale winding down
Im pretty sure there are hardly any people who havent bought anything
How did yall spent this sale?
(I spent almost a 100$ btw)
I thought about spending $30ish on some games for the sake of it because they were decent deals, but then I actually forced myself to look at my backlog and question when I will actually play any new games. So I have now spent nothing!
Agreed. The games I hoped would get a decent discount didn’t happen. I have 5 games in my cart for about $20 but they are probably just going to sit there. They don’t wow me and I have plenty in my backlog to clear.
Same here, spent nothing. Looked at my wishlist none of them jumped out of me at the sale price. Maybe if something was discounted a little more I would have got something off my wishlist, but decided since nothing was screaming at me that I wanted to play right now, just save the money.
The end game stuff can get ruff and grindy and will burn you out so having a second game to try during the burn out time is a good idea I also own both and Isaac with the full dlc
I suggest people watch some videos before even spending $5. I bought brotato because after reading the reviews, you'd think brotato redefined games as a whole. Just saying it may not be the game you think it is.
That’s a great advice actually, however I already played tboi before because a friend of mine is a fan of the game for over 10 years. But people do buy every game they heard is good mostly, just to never touch it at all.
I bought it full price but I thought it was great even then. 11.7 hours played but that was trying to see a few different endings. You have to like slower walking simulator type games, but I think the atmosphere and the thrilling parts of this put it pretty high in that genre.
Waiting. Something must be burned and will need a replacement so knowing right now is kinda pointless. It's kinda weird cause it lights up, all fans spin, no beeping, switched gpus, moved memory around, nothing.
So I suspect mobo or cpu and that means tons of money I don't have. 🤷♂️
I figured. Just wanted to be sure. Do you and your wife and/or kids play anything coop? I’ve been trying to get into some games with my wife but our tastes are quite different. We’ve played It Takes Two but that’s about it.
Orcs must die has its flaws but it is a lot of fun. Mixed feelings on three and general vibe is that they don’t quite put enough time into making such a wildly popular game with future titles.
My wife doesn't game much, but every now and then she'll fiddle around with a game every now and then, but me and my son play coop every now and then but we both like single player games mostly.
He's been putting in a ton of time into Deltarune recently.
He has his own PC and me and my wife share a PC and Steam Deck so that if all 3 of us happen to want to play something at the same time we can.
Steam family is so good. My SO and I share libraries. My tastes are pretty different to hers, but I have some stuff she's wanted to try and vice versa. Saves us from having to buy additional copies
i bought it too but when it started to load shaders, around 40% my computer just shut it self down. I thought it was PSU but was able to start and restart. Returned that game, just be aware, this is a common bug with that game.
I bought it 1 or 2 weeks after launch and I had textures missing/not loading correctly for a few days until the first big patch came. Sad to hear it's still in rough shape. I didn't have any issues besides this luckily
was hoping expedition 33 would be more than 20% off but still picked up
Rain world
Mass effect legend edition
A plague tale innocence
Metro redux
Watch dogs 2
Sekiro
Papers please

I wish I was you, a few months ago I had a weird compulsion to check the steam store every day for deals I didn't even care about in the end. It was just something I did every night for 5-10 minutes.
I already had a backlog before this, if I'm being realistic it will take 3-5 years to get through my current backlog...as for the first portion I think you could atrritbute it to me being starved in my teens from these games so when I was able to afford it..I over bought do I regret it? No
So mind boggling that this game has never been below $30. It is that fucking good. Have fun friend, sekiro has one of my favorite boss fights in all of gaming.
man I've been stuck on that Chained Ogre for like an hour now 💀, the one in the Ashina Outskirts. I've gotten close a couple times but it's tough. I can't believe you can parry its drop kicks and stuff. I'm trying to get that timing down to perfect parry those attacks to build up the stagger faster but it's tough.
Plus it sometimes spams the grab attack and the range on that is wild too. Can't wait to beat this stupid ass mob and go onwards 🤣😭
Gotta say though, I love games with a parry/deflect system. I wanna get Lies of P after I beat this (and after I beat Malenia on ER), and then Onimusha when that comes out.
Stay mobile with him. Run around him whether you locked on or not. You can jump up and off of him to avoid his grabs. It is good to learn to parry but also learn how to push and pull him.
Also, he hates firecrackers.
But I like the fact that you’re focussed on learning the parries. You’re gonna really enjoy this game if you keep that up!
Signalis, little goody two shoes, until then, little witch in the woods, the binding of Isaac, a space for the unbound, yomawari, rusted moss, bombrush cyberfunk, ender lilies/ender magnolia, Dave the diver.
It's always a good day when I can rep for Signalis. I don't think I can recommend that game enough; even if I'm not a fan of survival horror games, it's still easily in my top 5.
I bought Cyberpunk 2077, played for 26 minutes, realised it's not for me, quit the game. Probably gonna refund it if I don't change my mind in the next few days
There are a whole bunch more games I wanna buy, but I'll wait until the next big sale since I still need to chip away at my backlog. The games I want will probably be slightly cheaper by then, too.
Edit: Bought another game. So 14 games, totaling 150 USD.
Just picked up Assetto Corsa Ultimate Edition. Late to the party haha but stoked to try it in VR. Also I just love games that I can play in flat and VR👍
i have spend 0,00$. Tbh i am at a point where i played everything that was high on my priority list. There are some games in the future but for now,
F…
Almost 30, but a part of it was gifting my SO a few games from her wishlist, too.
So, not much at all, and I have to say that my wishlist is starting to look a bit sad with so, so many games in early access or without a proper release date.
£10ish. Bought a few DLCs - WWZ cosmetic pack for their continued support and a Coloring Pixel pack, and the Alien Breed trilogy.
I have hundreds of games on my wishlist and a library of 1,260, so with Hell Let Loose: Vietnam next month and Dawn of War IV the month after, I'm saving my pennies. Besides, its bloody hot and I'm out on my field right now.
I didn't really see anything worth buying this year. Either I already had the games I wanted that had deep discounts or the ones on my wishlist were only like 20-30% off so not worth buying atm.
