Steam Summer Sale - DAMAGE Thread

[Rayfer]

Nothing....! I was determined to stay with my WitP:AE, ACW2, Stellaris and HoI4 campaigns. But the Labor Day/End of Summer and end of year Holiday sales may be a different story.

Picked up HoI4, Stellaris and The Last Leviathan.  Ended up having to return The Last Leviathan because it made my CPU/GPU run hot, which was a bit surprising since even my old rig was above the min specs, but then again, it is an EA release.  May check it out again down the road...

p.s.  interesting.  My Steam refund went from 7 days pending to back into my Steam wallet as soon as the sale was over.

Civil War II
Atlantic Fleet
Squad
Blizkrieg 3
Xplane10-(because I'm too lazy to hassle with the DVD version I already own).

Just Pike & Shot Campaigns for me. Most everything else that looked enticing discount-wise I picked up during the Winter Sale. Was really determined *not* to buy anything I didn't intend to play soon.

[Bardolph]

Pike and Shot Campaigns
Order of Battle WWII and the first two DLCs.
Steamworld Heist due to hype on a couple forums
Dangerous Waters, just re-read Red Storm Rising.
X-Com UFO Defense cause I read about some Pirate mod for it.

Looked hard at several others but talked myself down. Helped to wait till the last couple hours of the sale so I couldn't go back and buy more.

Nothing for me. I'm a very picky shopper.

[Gusington]

Ha!

[Pinetree]

I picked up Portal 2 for under $5. Dunno when I'll get round to playing it, loved the first game though.

Door Kickers
Off World Trading Co.
FC:RS Germany Reforged.

Deleted a few others off my wishlist as I realised that if I wan't going to buy them whilst heavily discounted, then when would I?

lol -- i did the exact same thing!  My wishlist has become the "upcoming games i'm interested in / games i will consider buying if they go on sale" repository. If a game's on my list when a sale starts, and still on when a sale ends -- looking at you, Offworld Trading Company -- then I have to sadly conclude that I'm not really into said game after all...

Well, this was a bit of a punt for me also, but I liked the idea of an economic battle for a change of pace.  Only done the tutorials so far, and it seems that it might turn out to essentially be a clicky-clicky RTS but we'll see...

Unlike previous years, I do have to say that I've gotten more mileage out of the games that I bought so far as opposed to stuff I've purchased in the past that are still sitting in the "to be downloaded / played more than 1 hour," pile, so I guess I'm getting better at selecting things I'll actually do something with.

Careful, you're going to lose your Grog card.

Seriously. Actually playing the games you buy makes the rest of us look bad.

But what if I'm playing something groggy?
