Once in a while something new pops up… I was on the Valheim bandwagon on day one… but that is a pretty rare event. I tend to stick with the same old selections until I have worn them out. The problem is, will I even play a new title? Anybody having visited this blog more than a few times probably has the correct impression that I don’t play a lot of new titles. (Where you have to buy all the DLC anyway.) And Forza Horizon 5 is 50% off for all editions… I think they have released all the DLC for it at this point… and I would rather have it on Steam than on the Microsoft GamePass subscription. Will I buy it for a mere $2.49? Darkest Dungeon, which I never quite got around to buying, is 70% off. I mean Ogre, which has been on my wishlist for a while, is 90% off. ![]() There are stickers to collect, points to earn, backgrounds to buy, and all of that sort of thing, which is covered in the announcement.īut it is the promise of a deal, a discount, the discovery of whether or not a break in the price is really the deciding factor on whether or not something moves from your wishlist into your inventory over the next two weeks. There are other aspects to the event, things besides the sale. (He said, even as preparing a six month update post on 2023.) And the summer sale always feels like the younger sibling of the winter sale, where we get year end numbers and the Steam Awards and all of that. I have opined in the past how the excitement of a mere sale has worn off over the years as it went from being a unique event to a standard routine. But the Steam Winter Sale is only… five months or so away! I might have the time, inclination, and short term memory to pick up one of them by then.īut, if you were in for the Steam NextFest that was part of the run up to the summer sale, they did publish a list of the 20 most played demos. ![]() Why have it, why populate it, why look at it? It is almost enough for one to bring the whole idea of a wishlist into question. I do that during most sales with most items on my wishlist. It is quite possible that I would have looked at each of those… and a few others on the list… and just declined. ![]() Forza Horizon 5 was 50% off for all editions.Wrath Classic is still keeping me engaged and EVE Online is always there asking for some free cycles so I’ll at least keep my PI running.īut I did go back to Steam to stare at my wishlist for a bit and ponder a few of the deals that might have been worth grabbing even though I had no intention of starting a new title at any point in the immediate future. I mean, I was not really hyped on anything in particular.
