Bought some DLC packs for Hearts of Iron IV that I didn’t have, but that’s about it.

For years I’ve found these sales lacking since flash deals, daily deals, and community choice went away. Not as fun as it used to be.

Nada, I miss the days when we had Steam noobs. I buy what I want when I want now.

I’ll buy PUBG on the off chance that MW’s BR is trash.

That’s the other thing. Most games that I really want (Sekiro, Resident Evil 2, etc), I just buy on launch, so when they go on sale for a great price, I’m not excited because I already have it.

Didn't have Witcher 2 on PC yet. Got it for 3 bucks. Feels wrong.

Steam Sales just aren't the same without Flash Sales.

We did get Refunds from the death of Flash Sales.

Edt: idk why they just couldlnt make items purchased in a Flash Sale non-refundable.

Put a cooldown on purchasing a game again after you've refunded it, typically long enough to last through the sale period.

Flash sales had me checking Steam every few hours. Now I get what I want within 5 minutes and that is it.

Yep, I "shopped" the store more often.

Also forced me into purchases I would not normally make, for better or worse.

I've never looked into it but some silly legality must be behind the decision.

Nothing I really want on Steam, but I'm tempted to get The Outer Worlds, Red Dead 2, & The Sinking City on Epic. But, I really don't want to invest into another damn launcher.

No, it really is that bad.

I have a lot of "Update" issues with games on certain chipsets. What is really annoying is always being signed out of the launcher.

That launcher is a mess.

I bought it thinking that me or my wife will play it with a controller on one of the TVs, but deep down I know that won't happen.
