Cherry popped!! Honestly ..it's nice having all these games on one platform..
Are you planning on playing all of those in time for the Summer sale? If not, I would consider buying just one or two then waiting for subsequent price drops.

If I was in your situation, I'd buy Ori, Shovel Knight, and The Way. Ori and Shovel Knight are games I've been seriously itching to play. The Way seems pretty interesting, but don't know a ton about it. Was gonna pick it up when a can't pass deal came around. 50% off seems pretty good though.

Anyone ever get around to buying Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan? I was looking forward to it before release but then it came out with a bunch of apparent issues (bugs, shoddy translation, ect) have they been fixed or improved? It's still only got 40 reviews... It's dropped below $10 for I think the first time since it came out.
Oh and wow at those nominees for that "Villain In Most Need of a Hug" award. =Far Cry 3 and 4, Borderlands 2, Portal 2 and Dead By Daylight?

I honestly feel those will be the same/similar price by the time the Summer sale hits, and probably the next Winter as well.
I want it bad but it really should be 50%. Again, im not sure what some of these devs/pubs are thinking, we know for a fct that they are the ones that set the prices

Finally picked up Undertale. Any thoughts on Axiom Verge?

Has there been a mod for using the old sprites in FFVI?

Invisible Inc. has this new banner piece that says "from the makers of Mark of the Ninja" on it.
It's a damn fine game on its own; it really doesn't need that packaging.
That said, Mark of the Ninja is one of my absolute favorite games in recent years.

X is cheaper now than it was on the black friday sale. I'm assuming all of those will be cheaper by summer.
Thanks for the help on the 3 wishlist picks, everyone.
Going to go with:
- The Witness
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- Stardew Valley
I'm planning on getting Shovel Knight for PS4 / Vita, and there's also some stuff that was on the list like Dead Space and Resident Evil that I've already played years ago but just don't own on Steam, so not really a priority to buy.
Won't be able to play until I'm home on the 27th, but still going to do some shopping anyway!

Oh, that's definitely an agreeable deal for me. Thanks!
If you are a fan of Metroidvania games its a must buy.

Agreed, it should be so should a lot of others 35% seems to be the new 50% while 50% is the new 75-80% off..
Axiom Verge has been on my wish list for a while, it's a really well received Metroidvania style game, I might buy it today and play it... Some day. I wish I caught the Humble Bundle it was apparently included in last year.

Thanks for the recommendation. I had added it to my wishlist in the past at some point, but never really looked into it. The gameplay vid looks pretty fun...I look the focus on movement and dodging around enemies.
The Paladins founders pack is 50% off, it gets you all the current and future charcters.
Yes, its the Overwatch clone. I thought it was pretty fun when I tried it, its still in Early Access tho.

Looking for recommendations on a co op game for 2 or more. It needs to be on the shorter side and more importantly hopefully no concept of story quests or leveling up. The reason is that not all of my friends are reliable to play so once we get out of sync it's a real problem (ex Dying Light is the last game we failed at). I was thinking Verminetide or Helldivers, any suggestions?
Judging by how you ordered the games...
Witness, Ori, and Shovel Knight. Comes out to less than $50.
Excellent game if you're into Metroidvanias. It uses some very creative alternatives to Metroidvania tropes.

All the female anime face has been sucked out of my sell inventory.
That is kind of neat but also disturbing.

Top 5 games on my wish list:
1. Total War: WARHAMMER - 25% off, but basically almost $65 for the base game and the recent Dark Elves DLC. Was hoping this would go a little deeper. Gotta think about this one, because it might be above my total budget for the seal. Depends on what kind of fundage I get as gifts.
2. Thumper - 20% off - ouch, definitely not as deep as I thought it would go.
3. Xanadu Next - 20% off - ouch. GAF told me this was great, but ehhhhh... might wait for it to hit 50% at the Spring Seal.
4. Everspace - 20%... which is apparently the new 33%
5. Grim Dawn - 45% off. Used to be my #1 but it got bumped down. Still have to :jnc that they didn't just get to 50% already.
I have Rise of Nations (75% off) and Broken Age (80%) at 6 and 7. Civ VI at 8 only 10% off, and based on previous discussions here, I bumped Total War up.
So.
Hmm.
If I decide to go as high as $60 I might go Total War: WARHAMMER (w/o the Dark Elves DLC for now) and Grim Dawn.

Well that's how you do steam sales. Buy tons of games and then never actually play them

Question: Would you guys agree to give up on Steam Refunds if it meant we got dailies/vote specials/flash sales back?
I would. I still haven't returned a single game on Steam.
Anyways, $10->$5 is my "consider it" price, and <$5 is my "ok probably buy" price, depending on the original price of the game. Hoping to clear out a chunk of my wishlist.
Is this better/worse/the same as the autumn sale, for the most part?

Over time games always get cheaper. Buy games you will play the coming year. There are multiple sales throughout the year.

How are the new expacs for Age of Empires 2? Do they have the same polish to them as the original game and expansion? Heard the current devs made a massive mod for the original games.

Grow home is pretty cool. Just had a quick 10 minutes.
In a heartbeat. Honestly with the way PC gaming is, returning digitally bought games was one of the stupidest things I thought happened a couple years back.

Is Kentucky Route Zero worth it at 50% off,$12.49?
What about Banished at 66% off,$6.79?
Thank you!

I would. I don't really refund games, and Steam sales seem so weak now compared to how they used to be.

Yes , I have 1k+ games and have yet to refund any.

Ethan Carter for $3.29

Abzu for $6.59
Firewatch $13.19
Inside for $13.85
