Almost half of these deals are only for 25-40% off of already overpriced games. Is this supposed to impress people?

You can see that the sale was pretty terrible even by measuring the thread participation here on GAF. This time in the previous sales, we were on the second or even third thread. Now we barely crossed the 200 page mark of the first thread.

I feel it was a decent sale. I actually picked a few things up, unlike the other sales this year.

OK, I'm done with this sale, the only game I missed was Goat Simulator, because I had no idea what it was, hopefully it will be on sale tomorrow. Great sale as always, except for those that wanted to get this year's best AAA games for 5 dollars...

Wow, the two days encore is really unexpected and admittedly a bit off-putting.

Even though I took this chance to finally purchase many of the leftover titles I had in my wishlist, I can perceive how some would regard this sale as pretty disappointing overall, especially if compared to last Summer Sale.
Less community options, less opportunities in general to contribute to a general fun atmosphere and quite less interesting deals.

This is the laziest Steam sale ever. It's like they couldn't be bothered. Not to mention that many of the games had seen deeper discounts in the past.
 

Metroidvania

People called Romanes they go the house?
Am I crazy, or was Borderlands: TPS 50% off during its main sale day, as opposed to its now 33% off?

Isthereanydeal confirms it was 29.99 at one point, but it doesn't seem to say when that was.

Not as great as a comparison as the community thread is still open as well.

Well at least I know it safe to pick up things that never had a daily (at least until they all turn up in a humble bundle next week for a dollar knowing my luck).

Just picked up Astebreed, Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae, Escape Goat, Freedom Planet and Double Dragon: Neon.

I don't know much about the game but I can already tell it's not for me. Did you really expect people to pick that over really anything? haha

Yes? Because it's a good game?

Don't let the pigeon dating sim exterior fool you.

Pretty meh sale overall but that's probably because I already own too many games. Good for my wallet though:)

I think I have a few of the "needs" on sale for like $.10 each on the marketplace. I could pull them if you get me Lethal League. :p

F**K !!!

I was buying the stanley parable : putting the game in the basket, then my credit card info and hit the "continue" button, then an orange rectangle appear saying that the price of my item changed since I added it (from 3€ to 6) !

That's so lame, I was going to buy it but I won't now...

I haven't really been keeping up on the dailies as much as I'd have liked to, but overall this sale didn't have a lot for me. I did pick up Final Fantasy XIII for 7.50 or whatever, as I never finished it on PS3, but found out it's almost a 60GB download, holy shit. I'll probably pick up Bird Story yet, and look around at some sub $5.00 indie games on my wishlist. Hoping for some better deals on the summer sale next year.

Blagh, was kind of hoping the Fallout titles would be 75% off again. I'd like to have 1 and 2 on my account, so I dunno, I'll keep my fingers crossed for something to pop up, even though I think I'll be waiting for the next sale. :p

What's good about it then? I thought everyone was just talking about it because it's, "Haha, dating sim with pigeons". What else is there to it?

It's a colloquial commentary on our current dating culture revolving around the one-note nickname of "birds" as women, what it means to be an alpha male, and how experiencing this through a simulator can all make us better post-play.

I have not played it. I've only seen about 3 screenshots of brief dialogue
