Ah, here it is.  "179 games in your wishlist are on sale" :D

I think I'll be okay getting through the current sale.  Of the 18 items on my wishlist, only 7 are currently on sale.  And of those seven, the only one I'm seriously considering getting is Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Enhanced Edition.  The rest simply don't tempt me right now.

That's more than my purchases and wishlist combined.  Do you just have every game on Steam on your wishlist?   :P

Finally got Thrones of Britannia to try out.   

I really enjoyed Thrones!

To be fair, I think some of the shopping cart schizophrenia is explainable by having put the games into the cart with my Surface (which I'm typing on right now, btw). I now recall noticing before that Steam has trouble, even though the account is exactly the same, recognizing games put in with the Surface vs games put in with the Falcon NW. Why that's true, I have no idea; seems like a design glitch.

Having said that, even on my Surface the cart randomly decided to forget I had added games yesterday, requiring me to hunt them up and add them again.  :buck2:


And the fact of the matter, is that I have a ton of games already I'm interested in playing. The only reason I added those to the cart (aside from interest) was that all together they amount to maybe ten bucks.
ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

I ended up buying one thing on my Steam wishlist - from Matrix.  The other things on my wishlist did not go on deep enough discount for me to buy.

Interested to read your take on Thrones of Britannia. I will be playing it very soon, for the first time.

Still honing down my list. I've added Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom (GOG 5.00), Brass Brigade (Steam, 7.50), and Anno 1800 and some DLC for it at Ubi for 47.50.

May wait for the Christmas sale for Anno.

Eleven items on my wishlist are on sale. None were discounted enough to buy.

No.  The games I bought aren't on it any more!

May also be getting A Plague Tale because it's 50% off and I am in a plaguey, medievallly tortuous mood.

I couldn't resist:

War Party
Kingdom Wars 2 Definitive Edition
Dungeons 3
Adeptus Titanicus: Dominions
Acthung! Cthulhu Tactics

If my willpower fails me, I may go back and get:

Divinity Original Sin 2
Pillars of Eternity 2

I have way too many games on my wishlist and in my backlog. So I may just pick up a few DLCs that are on sale to round out some of my games.

Of course, that's how the full addiction starts is with the gateway words: ..."may just pick up a few..."
