I went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games, picked up Darkchaser, Oxygen Not Included, and UFO50, and also grabbed Cities: Skylines. Got used to the launch prices of some AAA games, buying these discounted low-priced games really doesn't hurt much.
I got all the cheap classics I had been playing with an eyepatch and a peg leg years ago. I'm especially excited about Magicka 2 to play with friends. My nephew is gonna love them!
Went for the Hitman WOA deluxe edition. Good discount and was eyeing it for a while.
UFO 50, In Other Waters, Planet of Lana, The Last Game, Genome Guardian, La-Mulana 2, Stacklands DLC...And a steam deck. I decided to finally get the deck before we might get tariffs and UFO 50 was my main purchase for handheld play.
Lastly, I really enjoyed Moonring during this sale period but that is available for free. Thought I should give it some cred despite not fitting your prompt.
The DLC for Dark Souls 3.
Decided to give it another try after picking it up in 2017 and hating it, and for whatever reason, I like it now.
I bought a bike helmet.
Oh, you meant on steam? Luckily my rig is still out of commission, so nothing.
Nothing yet. Currently having Slime Rancher and Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood in my cart. Wondering if buying games right now is even worth it with PoE2 coming next friday lol
Mainly Banishers Ghosts of New Eden. I don't have much money at the moment due to almost 4 months of unemployment, just got a new job and with my first paycheck from 4 days of work I got that, plus the new humble bundle, a couple coloring packs cause I like the pixel coloring books, and a couple games that were $2-3 each: a zelda clone called Blossom Tales, The Snow Fable: Mystery of the Flame (I also like hidden object adventure games), a lovecraftian 2d platformer called The Last Case of Benedict Fox, and adventure game version of Sherlock Holmes: Hound of the Baskervilles and a Wipeout clone called Flashout 3.
I wanted to buy Age of Empires 2 but it seems it is not on sale :(
Dishonored 2 and Blood: Fresh Supply
None, because I bought everything on the store I wanted in the last 50 seasonal sales. 😫
Finally got Witcher 3 on my PC so I can play that again.
Me and the (long distance) gf bought It Takes Two
Kingdom Come: Deliverance
Death's Door, cute souls like
Spider-Man: Miles Morales
And God of War Ragnarok wasn't on sale but I was waiting to see if it would be, so I technically bought it during the autumn sale
I‘m considering getting Sizeable and the collection of all the games the Hook guy has made - so basically a buncha puzzle games. I‘m also looking at Psychonauts 2 and the „new“ NFS cause both are five bucks so I‘m like what the hell why not. And Hotline Miami 2, I‘m in the mood for some senseless violence. To top it off, Streets of Rogue and The Messenger. All of it together would come in at exactly 29.99 for me lol
There‘s other games I want more, but they‘re all still more expensive (or close to) than this whole bundle so it‘s not really worth it IMO considering the amount of games I still got anyway.
I picked up Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, I think that's really all I'm going to pickup honestly. Already have a fair bit in my backlog, and there's nothing else in my wishlist that makes me go "I want to play that right now" that can't just wait for another sale.
Brother got me buckshot roulette if that counts
I impulse-buyed Atlyss. Never heard of it before.
IronPineapple played through the demo of that one for a video a couple months ago. It seemed like an interesting game that was a mix of singleplayer and MMO elements. At first glance it'll look like a gooner game.
Anybody got an opinion on which is the best Far Cry game aside from the first three?

I really wanted to try Starfield but can't justify the price. Like I want to buy it, but I also don't have that kind of money to spend. Might start asking around my local friends to see if any of them have it so I can library share with them
I had access to it with GamePass when it launched (I'm full Linux now so I've canceled that). I still pirated it because you can't mod games distributed by Windows unless the specifically allow it. I'm saying this to say, there are alternative means to try it available if you want, but also I regret the time I wasted on it. It wasn't worth the time spent not even spending money on it specifically, and I love previous Bethesda games and the sci-fi genre.
Any games you recommend playing? I'm very bored lately
