Steam Sales used to destroy my wallet because there were so many good deals on games I didn’t have. For the last few years though, I don’t know if the deals have been worse or if I just don’t need any more games.
Can’t remember the last game I bought in a sale, the games I’m truly excited for I get on release anything else is mainly playing my back catalogue.
I think the games have gotten worse. I can’t find anything I’m excited to play :/
With “worse”, I think I mean that the games are not particularly fun or innovative anymore. It all seems like the same as before, with better graphics.

I miss the flash sales and daily deals. Buying at the right time was a game itself! Plus the 70-90% off sales were fire!
Those still happen tho?
Not that I’ve seen for several years. Looking it up, they stopped in 2015…

That makes me feel old.
I didn’t know about those, thought you meant random sales throughout the years up to 90%. Til
It was waaaay longer ago than I remembered. Time sure does catch up.
