I think I'm going to get the Dead Space remake (90% off currently), Granny: Escape Together (I like horror), and Escape the Mad Empire to start.
Might pick up more later in the sale, but this will keep me busy.
Remember you can get things refunded if you don't end up liking a game.
uh, I was just about to buy the dead space based on your message here but then I saw it has denuvo, so no buy :(

I could maybe use 20-40 euros, so I could get one of these
These
- DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT 15,99€
- God of War 19,99€
Or
- Star Wars Outlaws 34,99€
Or
- Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition 38,62€
Don't know yet which I should get
I got gnome jigsaw puzzles and the frog DLC for against the storm
Little nightmares II looks good at $2.99
Didn't go too overboard since I have a lot of other unplayed games and money is tight. But I picked these up:
- Sapo 3D (3D Platformer)
- ATLYSS (Action RPG)
- Lunacid (Dungeon Crawler)
- Kaze and the Wild Masks (2D Platformer)
- Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (3D Platformer)
- Anodyne (Action Adventure)
Still unemployed so I'm not even looking. If capital doesn't want to hire me, they can't have any more of my money.
Looking at how few places are hiring now compared to 2 years ago is honestly terrifying.

Was hoping for a discount on Spilt Fiction. Nothing so far.
Split Fiction is worth the MSRP. Ideally it’s great if you can get it on a discount, but this is one of the few games I’d pay full price for. My spouse and I loved it.
I think it's still a bit too new for that.
gmg and fanatical still cheaper for most titles.
that said I’ve been trying to load my steam wishlist for like an hour now.

Kerbal space program at $4 is such an insane deal.
KSP1 is the bees knees and the modding community is still going as strong as ever. Still worthwhile even at full price.

I get the gist of this game. Build some rockets with lifelike physics, right? Do you think it’d be fun on steam deck?
I have no idea how vehicle construction would work with a joystick, but other than that should be basically the same. Flying/landing might even be better on controller. It also has a native Linux client that isn't just a shitty port.
Lot of people saying it's Meh but ones that I've been tempted by are:
ATL 53% off for Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate edition
- this passes the $60 AUD threshold which I've been holding out for
Crash Bandicoot Nsane trilogy for 90% off
Stanley parable ultimate edition at lowest price since 2023
- deals for this game have been tepid since December 2023, but this matches the ATL
honestly the only ones I picked up this year are the Crash Bandicoot Trilogy and Jurassic World Evolution 2. that's it.
I don't think it's a matter of the sale is meh but most of the stuff with deep discounts is always on sale with previous sales and thus I already picked that stuff up. You'll constantly see the same games over and over with each sale and when you participate in each sale that number of games to get great deals on becomes less and less.

Bit meah honestly
Been mid for a few years now, in my experience. Most of the games I bought over the past two years I did outside of the Summer sale because most discounts are all the same anyway.
I've been eyeing Okami and it was 50% last week and it's 50% again now.
I pulled the trigger on The Wonderful 101 in March at 55% and I was worried I'll regret it in the Summer sale… it's 55% again.
Been also eyeing Lost Judgment… 70% in March and 70% again now.
I shouldn‘t buy anything, cause God knows I have enough, but I‘ll probably get a couple DLCs (for Risk of Rain 2) and hopefully that‘s it (Narrator: „It wasn‘t“)

I purchased a bunch of dlc for Train Sim World (tsw). I only buy dlc for tsw when its on sale, save a small fortune that way.
Bonus savings if you can get one of the bundles on sale for double discount. I got £150 of dlc for about £55. Yeah dlc is super expensive for tsw but it doesn't go out of date and nor is it needed for a multiplayer mode so why rush?
Been after the expansion pack for Germany and the Preston Route for ages.
Train Sim World® 5: West Coast Main Line: Preston - Carlisle Route Add-On Train Sim World® 5: Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel - Würzburg Route Add-On Train Sim World® 5: DB BR 101 Loco Add-On Train Sim World® 5: Maintalbahn: Aschaffenburg - Miltenberg Route Add-On Train Sim World® 5: Hauptstrecke Rhein-Ruhr: Duisburg - Bochum Route Add-On Train Sim World® 5: Ruhr-Sieg Nord: Hagen - Finnentrop Route Add-On Train Sim World® 5: DB BR 363 Loco Add-On
but it doesn't go out of date
That's not necessarily true. There has been DLC for Train Simulator (now classic) that got delisted and at some point no longer worked due to updates to the game and not to the DLC making it incompatible. Then at some point a new version got added as DLC which you had to buy again to get a working train. (8448 Big Boy and 6446 Challenger come to mind)
Classic is a little different from modern tsw, it could have been retired when it became Classic but they kept it on. How long on total was that dlc available for? And I don't believe its been turned off just not available to buy or officially supported?
Finally picked up a legit version of Rain Word, yay!
All of the Batman Arkham games are bundled for $9 too. With season passes and dlcs.
Major let down Kingdom Come 2 is only 10% off. That's just taking tax off and nothing else.
4mo out I wouldn’t expect a deep discount off the bat.
