I think part of it is a lot of stuff goes on deep discount repeatedly. Like Overcooked is $2. That’s a steal. But I already have it. If this was my first steam sale, I’d be super excited about that.

My initial thoughts are these sales are somehow getting even less exciting every time. It is clear that games should only be purchased on sale now as prices don’t seem to drop otherwise.

I think it’s also that there aren’t crazy discounts on anything remotely new. There used to be 1-2 games that made headlines.

I miss the old sales where they gave games away.

Epic still does good giveaways sometimes, and usually awesome ones over Xmas. Hogwarts was free up to yesterday, and a game called Hordes of Hell is free till tomorrow morning when the next mystery free game is revealed.

It’s a mildly amusing board game.
