    I sense a great disturbance in the force, as if millions of wallets cried out in pain, and were suddenly emptied.

      It got so bad that my wishlist was broken. I could feel the pain through the Internet as others threw money at Valve.

      See, the trick is to own everything.

      Then you don’t even care about sales anymore because you already own anything and everything thats on sale and interesting.

    Wildermyth is a lovely combination of storytelling and xcom-style combat, with a genealogy system and chances for your heroes (and their descendants) to reappear in future games.

    I just played through Pony Island and really enjoyed it. It doesn’t have much replayability, but it’s a unique experience that I think most will enjoy. If you like Doki Doki Literature Club, Undertale or Inscryption (last is the same dev), you’ll like this.

    I’m going to be picking up The Hex because I’ve liked the dev’s other two games.

      That used to be the case, back when Steam Sales were a chaotic feeding frenzy of discounts. These days it’s pretty much the same throughout.

      I think that was sometimes true in the past, but they ended that practice years ago.

      As others have said, prices should be mostly stable, especially for big names, but you still might see a few small devs who were like “Oh shit, its the summer sale, we should add a discount” halfway through.
