    Ugh, I have too much to play in my backlog already. I’ll probably pick up one game that I want to play eventually, maybe Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon.

    I’ve been playing Outer Worlds, though, so I’m saving up for the 2nd one just in case it’s good. Given Avowed’s release, my hopes aren’t high. However, the first game is so intensely 6/10 that if they can just improve a tad bit on the formula, I think I would like it a lot.

      Just don’t mix up Outer Worlds with Outer Wilds lol.

      Or maybe do, since they’re both good games.

    Honestly the sheer number of games that I have is just unsustainable relative to how much work I have 🤣 I simply don’t have time for it all. Not to mention as I get older all I want to do is play World of Warcraft or the games I used to play in high school.

    Skate and Apex Legends have been really fun for me though recently, but there’s no games I want to really buy so they can just sit in my library like we all do.

    The thing about sales, are that if they happen every month is no longer a big event.

    I feel like an old man yelling at a cloud here, but it really seems like everything is on sale all the time, but the sales aren’t actually sales they’re just the price a thing should be

        No, not trolling. I’d never heard that they had a policy against it until I looked it up just now.

        Somehow I was under the impression that devs didn’t even get a say as to if or when Steam would put their games on sale. I thought I had heard that as a major gripe of devs who list games on Steam.

        Now I’ll have to decide when I feel like it’s worth the remainder of my life and $35.

    Just purchased Stationeers and that’s likely it for me. I’ve been meaning to pick it up forever and it rarely goes on sale, so it felt like a safe choice!

      Ahh that game is so great but I hate it and can never get far in it. It both scratches a itch that almost no other game can yet is so exhausting to play I can never keep at it for more than a couple hours.

    Only buying Ghost of Tsushima and just gifting Cyberpunk 2077 to a friend. It feels like every sale it’s the same deals, at least to me.

    Never played the first Hades. Never played Cult of the Lamb. They’re both on sale now, and they seem like pretty good Steam Deck games.
