I'm in charge of an 11 year old that would strongly disagree with your assessment of Geometry Dash. It might actually be her first STEAM purchase ever.
Maybe next year, maybe no go

This War of Mine is on sale for $4. People need to play this game, especially if they are feeling good about the world and need a reality check.

Re: Steam's Deals of the Day/Weekend/Midweek
A few hours after the sale starts I will open my wishlist page, see if anything is at a discount that pleases me, check it against greenman and amazon, buy what needs buying and then wait for the next sale. Generally less than 10 minutes invested. I guess I should thank them for saving me all that extra time.

If only someone would come out with a game simulating buying games on sale and never playing them. Once such a game went on sale, I'd never have to buy another game on sale again unless I never got around to playing the game simulating buying games on sale and never playing them.

Time for the 1pm server crash and service overload? Soon. It's been better, but I'm still expecting it to be nutty for a few hours.

Re: Steam's Deals of the Day/Weekend/Midweek
Note the bolded part. It's more about the fact that it takes some time for discounts to show up on the wishlist page than server stability, though the two are likely related.coopasonic wrote:A few hours after the sale starts I will open my wishlist page, see if anything is at a discount that pleases me, check it against greenman and amazon, buy what needs buying and then wait for the next sale.

I may go as low as like $30 or so on this sale, like Telltale Batman and some other adventure games and that's about it.

I already bought, played, and returned Ziggurat. Next up is Beholder. Seems to have a lot of good reviews with comparisons to This War of Mine.

These sales are like a vacation for Isgrimnur. No daily updates for the next 2 weeks. Enjoy your time off.

Re: Steam's Deals of the Day/Weekend/Midweek
Is it just me or has this been the least chatter I've ever seen on these boards about the summer sale? I spent a grand total of $23.36 actual cash. The rest was card credit. Just to be clear, sale prices are over midday tomorrow.

Re: Steam's Deals of the Day/Weekend/Midweek
I think we've all hit critical backlog, so there's very little to get us excited anymore. The AAA titles that are low enough for bargain hunters have long been subsumed by the new hotness.

Jesus also said, "For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”[John 6:40] Eternal life is conditional.
His disciple John wrote, "Whoever has the Son has eternal life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have eternal life. [1 John 5:12] Eternal life is optional.
