The one saving grace of Steam sales is that they're all flat now, so sales don't fluctuate throughout the entire event.  HOWEVER...  I'm having difficulty deciding on buying anything.  I just finished paying off my debt, so I'm working on a budget of $25 this year, not sure what I want.  I wish I could say this is a case of "maybe what I want just isn't on sale right now," but really I've had this issue for the last 6 months where I just can't decide on anything.  The only game I spent the money on without hesitation is Dark Souls III, I've found that I've become very finicky about buying anything.

I bought Heroes Tower defense for 4 bucks, best 4 bucks I have spent in a while. If you like Tower Defense then this is a fun twist. If you do not like tower defense then stay away.

In the end, I bought Bully, F.E.A.R., Hard Reset, Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice, Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Comet, and Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor GOTY (which I basically play like a GTA game, because I don't really care about the story of a ranger and his murdered family).

Oh and the Shining Force games for one of my real life friend's birthday, because he turns 31 in 2 days (same age as me, sadly I'm not getting any younger).  I also bought Hitman: Blood Money on someone's suggestion and ended up refunding it after 15 minutes of gameplay because of how awful the controls are.  So I have just over $3 left when my refund comes through.  I think I'll use it to buy Sonic CD.

Ah, apparently Bully doesn't run on Windows 10.  So had to refund that.

Yeah a lot of people are still grumbly about the fact that steam retired the flash sales/voteys/dailies and so there's no truly "special" deals that they want, like a special 90% off on game X.  I have to admit, the Lord of the Rings steam sale video still has me believing firmly in that whole "don't go below 60%!" so I feel hesitant to buy things that aren't 60% or better.

LOL that video was hilarious....
