    None. Sales have gotten progressively worse, and I’m mostly happy going through my backlog and also playing the same rotation of games I really enjoy but with new mods.

    I will be buying Dyson Sphere Project as a gift for a friend, though, because it just got a big update recently.

      Honestly seems like the sale discounts are still solid, but too many games are still at full price years after release. A 50-75% sale is a lot more respectable if you’re not still charging $60 for a 4 year old game.

        Yeah exactly. I remember always being able to pick up one or two very good games for $5-10, now it seems like there’s not much good below $20-30. Maybe that’s just me already owning all the good cheap indy games, or maybe it’s just inflation, but I also think publishers have gotten more and more stingy with the sales.

      Yeah I seem to remember these sales often being 70-80% off but now there’s nothing more than 50% (which is just the normal “sale” price).
