It takes a while before all the deals are rolled out.....

Hmm...it's not too bad.  There's a handful of games on my wishlist that currently cost next to nothing so I'll grab a few.  HoI4 has no discount of course, so no temptation there while I'm still playing Stellaris.  The only "big" expense I may have is to buy two copies of Wurm Unlimited (-50%) because my daughter wants to play on a local server with me.

Can't see myself spending more than £30 which is what HoI4 would have cost on its own anyway.  Cool.

Now I'm getting the "Sign into your account" thing even though I'm signed in already.  ::)

After a quick look, not too impressed (so far).  The sale prices are not quite as good as I'd hoped.  As an example, Bounty Train was 50% just before the sale started and now its only 40% off.  And, ya, I know its new-ish, but Stellaris is only 10% off.  May have to wonder over to GMG and use that JUNE25 code real soon...

So since they are showing Daily Deals, I'm guessing Steam abandoned the format they used last time, where the sale price was the same the duration of the sale. Didn't see the "Highlighted Deals" in my real quick looky-see...

Can see myself maybe caving and picking up one or both "Offworld Trading Co." and/or "Pike and Shot Campaigns" at $20 a pop.  Not quite at my "all resistance crumbles" "$14.99 threshold, but 50% off ain't bad.

Other than that, not a lot here tempts me.

From the little I managed to glean, it seems the sales kinda suck.
Most of the discounts are actually lower than last time.
Including the ones for the daily highlights.

What a shame.

OMG most Slithrine games are 50% off.... too much to spend, so many games to play... not enough free time.

Yeah, I've got a few of those on my Wishlist. Nothing bought yet. Yet....

Not a whole lot of interest to me either. Space engineers dirt cheap is one. Annoyed with the Skyrim dlc being so high.

Might grab some smaller indie titles but overall I think my wallet is relatively safe thanks to Paradox
Insert witty comment here.

Can't see anything that jumps out as a must-have yet. Any recommendations? Thanks.

 i'll grab some DLC on sale for games i havent put much time into  :uglystupid2: like Space Hulk Ascension, Endless Legend. Not sure what or if anything else, there's a couple off beat titles im looking at.

OK, here's my damage (and I'm not planning to spend any more in this sale...):

Midnight - cute little puzzle thing I just discovered
Kitten Rampage - The Boy wants to play it; probably saw some Youtuber having fun with it
Sheltered - I liked This War of Mine and this looks pretty good too
Wurm Unlimited - for my daughter and I to play
Saints Row 4 - I don't like this as much as the third game in the series but for £2.74 I'd be daft not to

Let's see how the download servers do!

My wife says I should buy more games I won't play this year to keep the other games I've not played happy and content.
