I just bought a car, so I’m out. Good thing I have backlog of like hundred games waiting.
Somewhere around 150 myself but once I get all the achievements on my current one (Its part of a set I’ve done so on.) I should be able to go through more at a good keel.
Being without a job same unless there’s something super cheap on my wishlist I really gotta have…I can’t even make a decision of what to play out of my library half the time lmao
I was able to pick up Street Fighter and Baldur’s Gate before I left my job. They’be been holding me for months now. Two of the best games to come out this year are real life savers when I’m stressed the fuck out.

I am a bit of a hoarder, so yeah, I have quite a lot of games I would like to play and haven’t had time (family, work, other hobbies). Some of those are definitely worth the time so I’m positive about finishing them once the time’s right (Disco Elysium, Dishonored series, Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: OS, Deus Ex series, etc.).
I often bought bundles (humble, fanatical, indiegala, …) for one game I was interested in and I’m also claiming most freebies (just to let Epic know I’m here only to get them free ones and never intended to buy anything from this company). So apart from those I do want to play I have hundreds I am sure I will never touch.
Ready do do what I want 'cuz a pirate is free?
I am, my wallet isn’t.
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.
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.

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 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.
Authmn sale? Aren’t we in Winter?
Not for another month.
