Summer sale wasn't really that bad

I thought it was pretty good, the monster game not so much.

I randomly clicked one that I didn't own yet because science.

Talos Principle - because my friend, who loved Portal, was very much satisfied with this one =)
Second place - Transistor, for its glorious art =)

M&B Warband had a good discount in my opinion, I'd have voted for Dishonored if the GOTY had -75% discount.

Monster game was a buggy pile of derp.
I don't mind the idea of doing something other than straight-up voting, but next time I hope they do something that's not completely broken.

In terms of deals, I had a large haul this year, mostly because I refused to pay more than 5 euros on a single game.
Limiting myself to that did mean I had to skip Dishonored though. Could have gotten the base game, but Bethesda's DLC pricing still being completely weird/stupidly expensive compared to getting the GotY edition.
Oh well, guess I have something to look out for during the next winter sale :)

Even though I own it already, Garrys Mod's price was not at low as usual throughout I noticed!

I think this should be included into pool http://store.steampowered.com/app/294860/

Thing is - many deals were worse than midweek/weekend deals we had during last half-a-year. And lots of games are still with same prices they were since 2014 (maybe even 2013).

It wasn't BAD. If it were bad, I wouldn't spend $130 (thank you, CSGO). But lots of games were disappointing (South Park still didn't get to console $5 price, like they once sold it there) And I'm kinda grrrr that cards again were useless. After winter sale kinda hoped they will make crafting them worthwhile, but nope.

Like most people, I am most interested in Transitor

I grabbed Mass Effect, oh! :O

Wish the game did drops better, never got more than 2 cards a day. Also some of the prices were super weird (Total War and Garry's Mod I'm looking at you). Also some daily deals not actually being daily deals was annoying. I understand why CSGO isn't going lower cause smurfs but hey.

Lots of positives though, the monster game was an interesting way to do community stuff even if we lost interest near the end. Also Isaac was $7.50. Castle Crashers and Battleblock were welcome discounts too. You get a badge just for participating in the game too.

Someone recommended me to contribute to this thread, B1.

I have Steam and my current PC for 3 months now and it was my first Summer Sale. I have a lot of games I need to catch up on especially because I haven't been playing videogames for a long while before I got this PC. While a lot of people complained about the sales being repetitive I was able to grab everything I missed out on. Well, not everything but some of it for pretty decent prices!
And of course I could grab some good games for Steamgifts.

The sale itself as a marketing strategy and the clicker game are a different issue, but I shove my money up Gaben's ass anyways.

TL;DR Nope, the sale wasn't bad.

Ahhh, all the games I wanted to buy but couldn't afford to spend on! :D

Also, Dishonored was my best purchase, probably. I didn't buy many games, but Dishonored was still a definitive good purchase.

PA

Transistor, because it has got -75% for the first time. Really nice deal ^_^

You moved your thread?
I ended buying only a pair of cents games for me, but there were some good deals definitely. I was tempted to buy Child of Light even if I already have it

No sir, not bad at all.

Thank you very much for Despair.

Dishonored is the best among them because sneaking and killing in it is much more entertaining than most stealth games!

Can't believe I missed these.

I wasn't initially impressed, but it grew on me over time. Crossed a lot of wishlist items off, grabbed some things I had never seen, even installed and played a few. That's pretty much the sign of a good sale for me.
