Do you hear that? It’s your wallet trembling with fear because… Steam Winter Sales are here! Save yourselves!

Cece09

To late, got many more items. Need warning a couple years early

Aiori

Let’s keep 1 minute of silence for the fallen wallets

Cece09

ninglor03

I’ll wait til Christmas is over, but… omg!
At least it seeeeems ok so far? keeps fingers crossed
Be brave!

Aiori

Let’s see Santa’s gifts at home…but probably I will fall to buy the last games for a season. My idea is not buy anything in 2021 until summer sale (at least) to focus more on my backlog.

ninglor03

Ha, that sounds… ambitious :D

Aiori

Yes, it is, but I think I can do it, or at least try it XD

ninglor03

I’m keeping my fingers crossed \o/

IcyGlare

I totally forgot about it. I just remembered when I checked my activity feed and saw people buying a lot of games. That doesn’t usually happen unless there’s a sale. XD

Aiori

Be strong! You can resist…or maybe not? Sound of a wallet trembling

samwise84

I have not (yet) bought one thing for myself…why is my backlog crying anyways? Maybe because I have crazy friends O_o

Aiori

If you check the activity page of your friends you will see why your backlog (and your wallet) are crying. But, it must be happy because it will have new friends xD.

samwise84

It is crying because it got even fatter after having lost a few pounds 😱🤣

My wallet welcomes the sale compared to the PC upgrade I’m doing.

So far managed to only buy 2 games with ~$4 in wallet: Heat Signature, BadLands RoadTrip

I might get Fall Guys and a heavily discounted AAA game so I can break in the RTX 3080 I just got. The only RTX game I think I have is Shadow of the Tomb Raider. I probably got a free COD game code with the GPU, but not sure how much I’ll enjoy it since I dont play many FPSs.

Aiori

Upgrading the PC is always expensive. I’ll probably do by next year but little by little.

Noble Gamer

That’s cool - I tend to wait to upgrade my CPU every 6-7 years and GPU 3-4 years. This year they both intersected, so I saved up enough this year to make it happen

Jaded

A lot of the games I was waiting for this sale are still pretty expensive.. So we’ll see. If I get a sudden urge to play one of them immediately, and for the next few days I’ll buy one haha.
Otherwise, to the backlog!

Aiori

Yeah, I checked my whislist, and just 3 titles has a 75% discount. Other even don’t have any sale (Hello Tecmo - Koei). So who knows

Jaded

Yep - a lot of the games I’ve been looking at have also been cheaper on Fanatical/GMG/Humble as well.
I’m not sure if I can justify buying games with a backlog haha. Tempted by a couple though with my steam funds!

Jaded

Spoke to soon. Ended up giving in for Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. Boredom + Steam funds will do that to you haha

Aiori

xD. I have good references of this one, I hope you enjoy it

Forsaken

I was running out of games to play so I bought a few this time. Normally sales are a bit quiet for me. I hope everyone finds good deals for the games they want.

Aiori

I only can say, Nice completion rate!

Forsaken

Thank you.

Some DLC aside to complete games I already own, I’ve resisted temptation so far for two reasons: waiting for Humble Choice so I don’t have to refund games and waiting to see if other sites will match or outdo Steam with their own sales. Good old “wait for the last day of the sale unless it’s a CRAZY good deal” applies to me.

Aiori

It’s a good tactic. I remember to buy more in other shops than on steam last summer sales.
