Poll of the Day > Steam Summer sale......where are the deaaaaals!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

I think it may still be loading/broken, cause of the 23 games on my wishlist, only 2 where listed as on sale lol.

Can't imagine that starbound is really not going to be on sale at all for instance.

Neither is Alway's awakening, mages of mystrilia, neir automata, DS Ashes of andarial DLC, Divnitiy original sin 2,
dragon quest heroes, stranger of sword city, cross code, monsters and monicles, 20xx, Icewind dale enhanced edition, secrets of grindia, hyper light drifter, shovel knight treasure trove, Nucleor throne, distance and gunmetal arcadia zero.

I mean that isn't even possible...right?
---

And now it has crashed, says servers are down, maybe it just couldn't load all the deals or something. I'll wait and see, otherwise, worse sale EVAR.....big time.
---

The summer sales have been getting worse and worse every year. I'll see if there is anything this year I want to bother with, but I doubt it. I already have enough games planned in my backlog that anything I do buy probably won't even get tried until December (which I could just wait for the Winter sale then).
---

steam sales havent been good for a couple of years. I want to give them the monies, but when things are 35% - 45% off i'm like meh i'll pass.

I loved them back in the day when they bundle up games and gave us 75% - 90% off the collection.
---

Yeah, it shows more of them on sale under a different tab (things on your wishlist) but they don't show up on sale if you actually click on them. Think it's just broken. Only one I see that I might get so far is Stories the path of darkness which is on sale 75% off ($3 and change).

That one looked good and it's pretty cheap.

Most of the others on my list are like 10-25% off, that is not a sale, it's a joke.

Icewind dale enhanced is on sale 66% off but is still $7 and I own the original on GoG.....don't think it's worth $7 to upgrade. Was looking for at least 75% off on it.

Still most of my wishlist not on sale at all even...but starbound is back on sale 33% off (not like it hasn't been already like 20 times...if I was going to get it at that price I already would have).

They need to step it up.

I'd agree with this but at the same time it is good for my wallet. Honestly, I have about 100 unplayed games on Steam and newer games that I am interested in aren't going anywhere. I might as well wait for the GotY edition to come out with all the DLCs and on sale. In the mean time, I might as well play the games I thought were interesting, 1, 2, 3+ years ago.

Final Fantasy is NEGATIVE 33% to 0% off right now
---

Yeah, it's really weird. Steam, "Hey! Look at all these sales!" Everything listed at it's base price.

Edit: They fixed it. Still not good sales.
---

oh my god! FFXI is 50% off; on sale for $20. that a bargian for a game that is older than World of Warcraft.

to be fair it has a lot of content
---

i just want a deeper discount. i want to play it before the server do go down. but $20... i feel like amazon had that same price when i bought FF14 three months ago.
---

I just went through my discovery queue and they gave me 13 summer sale trading cards

This might be the stingiest sale in recent memory

I'm about to get some games under $5:
Headlander
Game of Thrones RPG
Kindergarten
Grim Fandango Remastered

also how the fuck does Steam shit the bed like this every sale, get it together
---

Glad you could find some stuff RC:)

I went into this ready to blow some cash, even though I don't need more games, I was like, it'll be fun to get some games on sale, might get me motivated to play more.

But yeah, other then stories (Which i'm on the fence about really), not one game I want is on sale more then 50% and most are not even on sale (or 10% etc). It's cray cray.

I was ready to waste money, but the sales are so pitiful I'm not even gonna bother.

If I do ever wanna play those games, even if they are not on sale, I won't be losing much by waiting (and base price will probably go down by then more then the current sales anyway).

IIRC, the base game regularly goes down to the $5-15 range. You'd still need Heavensward and Stormblood at this point, but ARR is still a decent amount of content for that price.

Prolly finna grab Danganronpa 2, Momodora and the Umihara Kawase games
---

Shadow of Mordor is 80% off at $3.99 that is a steal for one of the better open world games made.
---

Pubg has no sale, was the only thing I was thinking of getting. Guess I'll look at my steam wishlist and see if there are any good sales on games I'd play in the near future.

That game has been on top of the sales charts almost every day since it came out, I am not surprised that they aren't offering a discount.

Pubg?

What does it stand for?

I'm not either, was just hoping. lol

ffs Steam do you want me to buy games or not
---

Would you all quit farting around? I'm almost done with work...er, I'm done with work and want to purchase my games!
---

Seriously? Shadow of Mordor is 4 goddamn dollars!?

I can't NOT buy it now.

It's not a bad deal for Tales of Berseriea. Never did play the last one (own it on steam), but I heard this one is better anyway, and it has werewolves!!

I'll look into it. I think it's cheaper at best buy for my ps4, but then I need to load it onto my Ps4 and it only has space for so many games.

Might make sense to get it on my PC even if it's $10 more or so.
---

Actually it's 32$ right now at best buy (not on sale at all, other then my gamers bonus). So it's about the same price. I'm sure they would have at least $10 off sometime in the future on sale, but even then your only talking about saving $8...so might be worth getting now.
---

You know you might have bit of a gaming problem when you get an email and the subject heading is "62 items from your Steam wishlist are on sale!" ....
---

Are they doing daily deals again, or no?
---

No daily deals that I can see.

And they are doing a horrid job spotlighting the actual few decent deals (like tales of Bersia) they have.

Seriously they need to step things up.

There are a few that are sorta/kinda tempting but nothign that makes me rush to buy something.
---

I picked up Loom,Indiana Jones and the Fate of atlantis and The Dig,but my wallet is empty atm.

Gonna get the Broken Sword Complete Colection and X-Com Enemy Unknown later on probably
---

Ys: Ark of Napishtim for $6, and Mushihimesama for $8. Those might just be low enough to bite. Might.

Bought Warhammer Total War, Soma and Shadow Complex.
