We worked out the total of everyone's Steam pile of shame and the result is scary

Whether it’s Diablo 4, Cyberpunk 2077, or Red Dead Redemption 2, our collective Steam pile of shame is worth enough to buy a country.

It also helps that Steam sales are nowhere near as good as they used to be. I don’t even remember the last time I saw a 90+% discount, but there was a time when they’d pop up regularly during the winter sale.

But yeah, these days my standard for even considering a purchase is “will I play it right now?

Their are a few, but very infrequently now adays

Inquisition is pretty good, if you haven’t tried it yet.

I played it to completion when it came out. That game and Valhalla some reason isn’t in my library anymore. And not sure if it’s due to Ubisoft and ea was pulling shit and back on steam with their launchers? Or maybe I lost my mind and bought it in orgin? Who knows

It was decent- just always wanted an origins style remake, and feel like they get farther and farther from the mark each time.

You might’ve lost your mind, I don’t think there are any known cases of games from your library disappearing

Welp must have bought them somewhere else because I definitely played them

Epic Games maybe?

I have to be honest, i much prefer only having to look once during the sale. Having to check every 6 hours kind required you to plan your day to check for deals.

Yup. Cyberpunk is often on sale, but I always ask myself if I can really play it when I’m in the middle of other games.

I would advise against getting Cyberpunk. CDPR held a cosplay contest, and one of the finalists they featured on their Xitter was a cis woman who stuck a glowstick down her pants to cosplay as the controversial “Mix it up” trans character from an advertisement ingame. CDPR says their intent with that ad was to highlight the way evil corporations fetishise trans bodies to sell product. But when CDPR’s own Xitter is fetishising trans bodies to sell product… well that, as we’ve already discussed, is an evil corporation.
