    It’s sad. The heyday of steam sales were insane - I’d never seen anything like it for gaming.

    Now, it just feels underwhelming.

      I just opened my Steam wishlist and there’s a lot of titles on there with 75% - 90% off. Including a one piece game normally $80 for $12.

      Now to go through them and see which ones I still want now that they are cheap and time has passed for more reviews/development. Seems like games I add to my wishlist are about 50/50 for if I actually want them when they are really cheap.

      Its underwhelming because the sales aren’t as great, and all the games that I’ve wanted I’ve bought.

      Nothing new is all that enticing, and if it is it’s an indie title and doesn’t need to go on sale and therefore probably won’t.

      Most indie titles are like 2.99 ~ 30 bucks tops. And all of the damn decent ones are around that 10~25 dollar range.
