        Autumn sale ended on the 4th… I remember when these events were worth getting excited over

          I think about the 5 games for $5 bundles with amazing indie games whenever this comes up.

          You can still get deals like that from Humble, Fanatical, and a few others, but nothing like that on Steam anymore. I don’t really understand why people buy so many games on Steam, tbh. 90% of my game purchases are bundles.

          Then again, I’m a very patient gamer who prefers short and targeted indie games to AAA games, so that’s probably most of the answer. I’m cool waiting 5 years for a game to be cheap. I have literally thousands of games I would be interested in playing sometime, so it’s only the very rare game that I’ll buy the year it’s released.

            Bundles are definitely where I get a majority of games, good tip there!

    Side note, the artist for these sales events this year has been smashing it. The winter main page is the best yet.

      They’re cute, thematically accurate, and the dynamic nature of them including the alternate version is really really cool.

    Man my backlog got so big these days, not even a steam deck can finish it anytime soon.

    I think I will slow down and enjoy games that I already own instead, like back in the simplier time. (Took me months to finish SMG2, but I loved every bit of it)

      I’m always like “i finally got around to playing this new game”, “the graphics is really modern and awesome”… and then it turns out it’s 10 years old.

      (To be fair I’m 44 so 10 years is still a baby game to me.)
