Because I like pictures:


I think that is it. Just bought Wuppo after trying the demo. For some reason it reminded me of Tomba.

[b3b0p]

Doom for my dad.

For me.

 

[Mazzo3]

That's all.

You haven't yet played the og Deus Ex, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, Dishonored or Jedi K ight? I'm jealous, that's a lot of awesome classics to be experienced for the first time. Keep in mind that Dishonored is the spiritual sequel to Thief, games that are true pieces of art and very much worth playing these days!

I got through the first few levels of dishonored definitive on ps4 but the controller speaker was mandatory to hear the heart and I use headphones so I guess I'm technically playing through it for the first time yeah.

And nope, no experience with deus ex 1, stalker or jedi knight games. Played and loved HR and MD though and scared to see how well deus ex 1 has aged.

 

[Chanser]

Planet Coaster with Paypal discount.
Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!

[Effect]

Only picked up the following so far since I have a backlog with other 3ds, PC, and Switch games.

Pillars of Eternity
Euro Truck Simulator 2 Essentials Bundle

I'm looking at the following before the sale ends but haven't made up my mind.

The Division survival dlc
Empyrion
Ark
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Assetto Corsa

 

[zulux21]

I just did my final check

Tavernier

was my damage.

 

[Cave Johnson]

"This is the police" may be one of the best strategy RPG's I've played in awhile.

 

[lazerfox]

Pretty happy how my haul turned out.

The only thing that I feel is missing are some story heavy games like Firewatch or Edith Finch. Couldn't really decide and I've bought already enough that should keep me busy until the winter sale.

Also still unsure if I should get Hitman Season 1 or just wait for Season 2 to release. I liked the Demo but it wasn't that amazing as everyone said.

I also bought Shadow of Mordor, but I'm refunding it later today. I won't ever play it.

Did you give it a try? I had a ton of fun with it and the sequel is just coming up.

 

[jiggles]

Hollow Knight
Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (which I don't want for any other reason than to complete the collection)

 

[NeoRaider]

That's it.

 

[jimboton]

Dead Cells
Snake Pass
unExplored

May still get Tetrobot and forma.8 before I'm done.

Edit: ended up getting those 2 as well as Pharaoh Rebirth+ and Pankapu

 

[Snkfanatic]

I ended up with more this sale than I thought I would.

Abzu
Dead Cells (AMAZING so far)
Dariusburst CS
Hollow Knight
Just Cause 3 (with all DLC, good price for dumb fun)
Risk of Rain
Streets of Rogue
Ghost Recon Wildlands (actually really enjoying this so far)

 

[black070]

So far only:

Alan Wake
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition
Dead Space
Dead Space 2
Fallout: New Vegas

 

[Spectone]

This is my haul:

I'm so proud of myself.

 

[CHC]

Hollow Knight - beat in 40 hours, amazing.

Stephen's Sausage Roll - also amazing so far.

Diaries of Spaceport Janitor - not that into it, too little direction and everything looks the same, but I won't refund because it's a nice little game and it was cheap.

Deus Ex Mankind Divided Season Pass - it was only $7.50 so whatever. Curious about the two DLC missions.

Might pick up Subnautica later today.

 

[Buzzi]

Dark Echo
Capitalism Plus
Banished
Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch. 5 Meakashi
Offworld Trading Company
Trillion: God of Destruction
A Bird Story
Eufloria HD
Learn Japanese To Survive! Hiragana Battle

Spent a little more than planned (45€), but these sales have gone very well, a lot of games high in my wishlist and hopefully some small gems.
Now my Steam backlog is at 80 games with 41 finished, not too bad.

 

[ChryZ]

Pretty happy, fun games, nice savings overall:

 

[bbd23]

Just Hollow Knight

the game is super frustrating to me but I keep coming back to it because I like its art style and music....maybe it will click soon.

[I am Error]

I didn't buy anything this year. It's time to tackle my backlog.

 

[Yellow Lemonshark]

• Prey 2017 (currently playing)
• Dishonored - The Knife of Dunwall
• Hollow Knight
• NieR: Automata

 

[Swig_]

This might be the first Steam sale that I probably won't buy anything. The only thing I'm really considering is the rest of the Dishonored DLC, which is about $4 worth. Part of this is that the discounts aren't as deep as they used to be and a few games are more expensive now than I've seen them on sale in the past. There are a handful of games that I might buy if they were cheaper, but not for what they want for them now.

I recently bought Dead Cells and PUBG, but I bought those on other sites due to discounts. I bought Hollow Knight a couple of months ago for the full $15. I can't really find anything else that I want to buy and I have $20 in my Steam account.

 

[Dombrowski]

 

[breadtruck]

So far only PUBG

Before time is out, I plan to also have Double Dragon 4 and Full Throttle. Maybe Hollow Knight or the other metroidvania everyone recommends here too (I dont recall its name offhand - EDIT: it is "Axiom Verge")

 

[Espada]

I've managed to clear out a good chunk of my wishlist during this sale.

Hollow Knight
Ori and the Blind Forest Definitive Edition
Steamworld Heist + Outsider DLC
The Deadly Tower of Monsters
Headlander
Hue
Gurumin
Outland
Valdis Story

Hell, I even picked up Red Faction: Guerilla (a game I'd been interested in for years). These games will definitely tide me over for a good while.

 

[apieceofstrange]

I bought Hollow Knight and Nex Machina. Enjoying both, but this is the fewest games I've ever bought during a Steam sale. Very underwhelming sale for me.

[foamdino]

Shadow of Mordor GOTY edition. Have been meaning to pick it up for a while, and at the price I couldn't resist.

I'm holding off anything else as I have too much of a backlog and I don't have loads of time left for gaming these days. Mordor has been decent fun so far, but I don't like the save system - I keep having to quit the game because of real-life interrupts and I get sent back to the same tower :-(

Still, it's my first arkham combat game and I'm enjoying how cinematic it is.

 

[Javier23]

I got through the first few levels of dishonored definitive on ps4 but the controller speaker was mandatory to hear the heart and I use headphones so I guess I'm technically playing through it for the first time yeah.

And nope, no experience with deus ex 1, stalker or jedi knight games. Played and loved HR and MD though and scared to see how well deus ex 1 has aged.

It's way better than HR or MD.

 

[Dawnbuster]

Nothing yet. Eyeing Dodonpachi Revolution, Dead Cells, Planet Coaster, and Hollow Knight.

Only thing holding me back is the Humble Monthly Bundle. Last Holiday Sale most of the games I bought on sale were part of bundles soon after.

 

[void666]

It's hard to be excited about steam sales when you have nearly everything.

Got dishonored 2 and stardew valley.

 

[kevin1025]

Dark Souls III
Mafia III
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided + Season Pass
The Walking Dead: A New Frontier
Hollow Knight
Nex Machina
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes

And I'll be picking up Firewatch once the new summer cards sell!

 

[Visualante2]

Snake Pass
Trackmania² Stadium
Hitman

Spent more than I wanted, but the PayPal deal made it okay. Just under £71 left in my budget for the rest of the year.

 

[Ptaaty]

Hollow Knight (and Dead Cells from another store).

I love Hollow Knight so much, played 30 hours and am delaying the end as I get more charms, etc. I can't sing it's praises enough...and I didn't even think it was very good until I got wall jump and double jump and the world started to open up.

 

[Gurnlei]

Just two games for me but I feel like they'll last. $15 for both.




Thinking on getting these but not sure...any opinions?

 

[Agent_ShortBus]

Just Cause 3 DLC. That's It, didn't have to spend my own money thanks to steam cards 👍.
