I went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games, picked up Darkchaser, Oxygen Not Included, and UFO50, and also grabbed Cities: Skylines. Got used to the launch prices of some AAA games, buying these discounted low-priced games really doesn’t hurt much.

    UFO 50, In Other Waters, Planet of Lana, The Last Game, Genome Guardian, La-Mulana 2, Stacklands DLC…And a steam deck. I decided to finally get the deck before we might get tariffs and UFO 50 was my main purchase for handheld play.

    Lastly, I really enjoyed Moonring during this sale period but that is available for free. Thought I should give it some cred despite not fitting your prompt.

    Nothing, I’m from Argentina and now if I buy a game I can’t eat for a weak.

      Sorry to hear that. Sail the high seas with no worries. You can still contribute to digital preservation of games by seeding. But don’t worry if you can’t do that.

      I hope things get better for you!

    Not on steam, but I bought Haven and The Talos Principle 2 on GoG.

    I already played Haven on GamePass a few years ago, but I wanted to own it because it’s very good (also to support the developers). As for Talos, I played the original twice and absolutely loved it, so I’m eager to play the sequel.

    I have too much of a backlog of games i haven’t played yet. I did not buy anything. Friendly reminder to play your playlist before buying a new game.

      Oh that’s a good deal and I’ve been waiting years for it to get cheap! Time to finally play it.

    Absolutely nothing, like in the past like 5 years.

    Currently (re)playing all Half-Life and Portal games in order they were released.

      If dying over and over again is what’s making you angry, turn on God Mode. The story is amazing. Without God Mode, I would have thrown it on the heap of games started that never hooked me. It was worth setting aside my pride to see a beautiful, intriguing set of stories and relationships unfold.

        I did turn on God Mode… still suffering. I suppose I’ve just gotta keep dying until I don’t, but I haven’t had the energy for that lately.

        I kinda wish I had. Maybe I still will… 50 hours in I finally got my first escape and I now find I’m struggling to go back to it because it just keeps getting harder lmao. I just wanna tell Dusa how great she is.

    The only thing I care about on the store right now is the factorio dlc, and that’s never gonna go on sale. I’ll probably buy that once I finish all the achievements for satisfactory.

      Get it as soon as you can afford it. As you have already noticed, the price only goes up, and it never goes on sale. The people that made this game know that they made digital crack, and aren’t inclined to spread the addiction.

    I’m really tempted to pick up Psychonauts 2 which is currently 90% off.
