Haven't cared about the sale since they changed it.
Now sales are boring and the good games are hidden. Before with the flash sales all kinds of games went into the spotlight.
Now steam wants to let me search their whole catalogue for something I maybe want instead of them showing it to me.

When flash sales were still a thing?

pretty much, but even the normal discount are less appealing, you always find a better price in another place.

If anyone wants to warm up, the gog discount on Panzer Dragoon is an immoral 90%.

But they don't let you refund if you don't like it. Paying a little more is better then getting completely burned.

Sure but sometimes the price difference is substantial.

Metaphorically, I hope.

Wait, what are the hidden badges before the sale?

Key sellers may have better prices but you can’t use Microsoft Rewards to score the games for free.
You can do that with Steam.

Not everyone lives in a world where Microsoft rewards exist.

I'm thinking of buying the Dark Souls series and since Ninja Gaiden is already in a collection, that as well. I think this year I'll buy DLC for all the games I'm missing them for instead of buying outside of the games I've already mentioned
. Although I am American, I have dual citizenship with Pakistan, so games for me are literally quarter the price of what Americans pay.

Is that an American thing only? I don't see an option to exchange for Steam in the UK or else I'd be all over it!

Well for those that do, it’s why slightly better third party site prices don’t matter.

You need to redeem for a digital Amazon card.
Then you redeem for a GameStop card, which I’m guessing are US only. Not sure what stores are available to you that sell Steam cards, but that’s the path.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Kinda scared since there are 82 games on my wishlist.
Cool! Always wanted to try those games... are the remakes a good entry point? Somehow I feel I should play the Saturn games first, they look pretty cool with their atmosphere, which I'm not sure the remake is able to replicate.If anyone wants to warm up, the gog discount on Panzer Dragoon is an immoral 90%.

I wish so too, but if they keep the same price policy as with FF7 Remake then honestly, they might as well skip it.
I mean look at it. How generous of them to offer it to us for 57€ instead of 80€....

I'm not your dad so do what you want. The remake works fine on PC, and you've had 25 years to play the Saturn version, so you can't be that keen on playing the fully authentic original. This is the only remake that is out, I think, so you could see it as a demo to see if you want to go deeper. Or you could just play Rez Infinite instead, since Rez is basically a smoother Panzer Dragoon experience.

Yeah, in my experience I'm always finding really great deals on Steam - both in and out of traditional sale periods. But I buy/play lots of "off the beaten path" games. Most people complaining must have really narrow taste in games imho.

Humble did a $20 sale for the whole thing just a week ago (minus DMC4). Other deals can always be better. But thank you anyway
.Update: It's still ongoing!

The market responded, it was not sustainable in the long run... Also, I think sales are good most of the time, even out of sales period

you can go to www.steamdb.info and connect your steam wishlist to there and it will show you only games on your wishlist that that have a new historical low or match the last historical low

Man, in getting ready for this sale, I'm coming to realize that it might be time to clean up my wishlist. There are a LOT of games on there now that I wouldn't buy anymore, things I wishlisted since like 2013 that I still haven't bought, etc. I might be a litlte too liberal with that "add to wishlist" button.

Bros, I miss daily deals like you wouldn't believe....
This badge shit is usually just a lot of work for not much payoff. I realize that the refund system pretty much killed any daily/flash sales, but Steam sales just aren't the same as they used to be. I don't think gaben.tv even works anymore.
Is this what getting old feels like...
