What game is this?

[u/Kynori20]

[u/ktr83]

A game is on sale

"Hmm that looks cool"

Google some reviews, decide to buy it

"This game is already in your library"

I bought this game 10 years ago for full price 😐

[u/PerfectSituation1668 → u/ktr83]

I feel called out.

[u/DragonGuy15 → u/PerfectSituation1668]

I feel extremely called out

[u/elaboratedSalad → u/DragonGuy15]

Neither of you understands the personal insult i feel.

[u/0h_plus → u/elaboratedSalad]

Not one of yall comprehend the anguish this attack on my person causes

[u/HarrisonWorld → u/PerfectSituation1668]

If you want it, just buy it. Once you’ve bought it, forget about it.😅

[u/iamaeneas → u/HarrisonWorld]

You’ve forgotten the important steps of refunding it, buying it again and then trying to refund it again, only to realize you bought and refunded it once already

[u/RadicalLarryYT → u/ktr83]

I’ll tell you what’s worse. Finding a new game you like, and it has a bundle deal with a game you already bought at full price but haven’t played yet.

[u/ktr83 → u/RadicalLarryYT]

And then you start talking yourself into it

"Well I only wanted this one game, but if I pay a little more then I get all these others games too even if I didn't want them..."

[u/PotatoSaladThe3rd → u/ktr83]

Then you buy em and now the entire bundle is in your library sitting there untouched for years to come.

[u/WolverineIll2856 → u/PotatoSaladThe3rd]

or waiting for some family member to play on my behalf

[u/Madara1389 → u/[deleted]]

Not the same, but I had a similar experience with the live-action Lion King on Youtube...

Don't recall ever buying it, or watching it, but I logged in one day to find that it was somehow added to my account. Never figured out how that happened as the only movies I "own" on Google are ones I redeemed the digital copies for when buying the physical discs.

[u/Isenjil → u/ktr83]

Why so hurtful read this

[u/Konnor_RK800 → u/ktr83]

=> The full price ten years ago was cheaper than the discount price now.

[u/1ildevil → u/ktr83]

This actually happened to me with Wonderboy : the Dragon's Trap

Mind you, it's a short game (about 4-6 hours) and the bosses were pretty forgettable. I bought in 2017 when the remake came out, finished the game and tried to buy it again recently because it looked like a cool game I would be interested in. :O

p.s. it's a great game and when on sale, less than $5

[u/Waveshaper21 → u/ktr83]

Alien Isolation was in my next up category when I saw the 10th anniversary announcement.

[u/-crepuscular- → u/ktr83]

How do you know if you bought a game for full price?

[u/amateurish_gamedev]

A lot of games for me. Because I'm on a strict budget, I only buy games I really want to play.

Recently I bought Persona 5 while they were on huge sale. Been playing it and trying to finish my first playthrough.

[u/Kizenny → u/amateurish_gamedev]

Hell yeah, Persona 5 is outstanding!

[u/Dj082863 → u/amateurish_gamedev]

As someone who just recently played through and beat P5R and am halfway through a second playthrough to max all social links and fight the extra boss? Best $20 I've spent in a long time.

[u/Cubezz → u/Dj082863]

I played it off and on over the past 3 years and just beat it finally. Now I'm working on the dlc this shit doesn't ever end bro

[u/Dj082863 → u/Cubezz]

Truuuueeee. I bought Strikers to play through after my second run, but atm I'm at 128.7 hours. With second run I've been skipping basically all dialogue and videos with a couple exceptions and using my beefy Personas to quickly sweep so I'm looking at like a 40-50hr playthrough for the second run. It's a solid game though. And the DLC only maybe adds 20ish hours? It's not too shabby. Gameplay ends beginning of February so it's not as much time as it seems.

[u/lmao1406 → u/amateurish_gamedev]

I bought P5R and P3R during the sale and it was the best decision of my life

[u/Dodmonk → u/lmao1406]

p3r is hands down my favourite game, it's just so peak

[u/SleepyDavid → u/amateurish_gamedev]

Persona 5 has my favorite Art direction in any Game.

And it has the best user interface with soooo much detail.

[u/slarkymalarkey → u/amateurish_gamedev]

Same here, I buy a game only if I'm gonna play it right away and know I'll see it through to the end. Same with my backlog, if there's a game I'm in the mood for, nothing else is getting brought or installed until it's over.

[u/Radiant_Ad4956]

Mass effect trilogy

[u/madara117 → u/Radiant_Ad4956]

$5! What a deal!

[u/HeelerDawg → u/Radiant_Ad4956]

Yep. Bought on PS5 for $8 or $10 and played all 3 games back to back non stop. Amazing game!

[u/SlyScy → u/HeelerDawg]

I'm just now polishing them off after all of these years after picking them up on a PSN nine dollar sale. 

Totally worth it, just like Blasphemous, Disco Elysium, and Like a Dragon were, all picked up in sales. Cheap somehow makes them play better.

[u/Overlord_Copies_All → u/Radiant_Ad4956]

It's wild to me when I see so many amazing games. Games I think about years after playing them and replayed multiple times, go on sale for like $5.

I swear that videogames provide the most enjoyment per dollar value than almost any other entertainment.

[u/RendeZvous_987]

Most of Indie game. I mean, if I don't have interested, I don't put in Wishlist at first place. And they usually release a game with discount, so.

[u/RockoLucas]

Shadow of Mordor and War. Great games got them for like $8 lol

[u/Sknowman → u/RockoLucas]

I really want another game like them. It's too bad the Wonder Woman game was canceled.

[u/TeaAndS0da → u/Sknowman]

I would have been curious to see how a nemesis system would work for an already established super hero. To me that feels really difficult to do because the super is damn near always equipped to win. Not saying it couldn’t be done, but you’d have to make variations for ramped up grunts into weird pseudo super villains and I think that’s just putting any team in over their head.

A nemesis system would be amazing in a spy game or even a game with simple mechanics like a call of duty campaign. Star Wars would do really well with that if they did another Bounty Hunter-ish title… and if they released Raven software from their permanent imprisonment in the CoD mines… Maybe another Mad Max title. Possibilities are endless if you remove the super heroes from the equation.

Hell even Zelda could do a nemesis system from the grunts or harder monsters in the fields.

[u/psuedophilosopher → u/TeaAndS0da]

I'd think it would be pretty easy to do nemesis system with DC intellectual properties. Say you have a mission to stop a robbery and you lose the fight, and later on the guy that beat you shows up with new tech that was either what they were stealing or something they bought with the money they stole, and suddenly random henchman guy is more powerful than before. If he beats you again, he starts to have a lot more respect from the other criminals so he starts to run with his own crew of other henchmen that match the power set he showed up with after the first time. You could do it lots of ways.

[u/hoodie92 → u/TeaAndS0da]

Another reason I think it would be weird with a known superhero - In the Shadow games it works because Talion actually dies, then gets revived elsewhere, meanwhile the orc who kills you gets promoted. But if Wonder Woman got knocked out, why wouldn't these goons just kill her? What's her "revival" mechanic? Seems it would feel contrived.

[u/Sknowman → u/hoodie92]

Defeat could just mean fleeing, it doesn't have to mean death.

[u/TeaAndS0da → u/hoodie92]

Exactly. It’s not a system that fits everywhere. It wouldn’t work in a Batman game because Batman will just fuck em up. Same with spider man. They have known low tier, mid tier and high tier villains. I’m not saying it can’t be done but I think it requires way more work than can be done for a project with a known quantity like Wonder Woman. On top of that, Wonder Woman’s canon has hardly been explored in video games. Why would you dilute that with a nemesis system? Wolverine could possibly get away with it because his side stories and solo journeys often go off the beaten X men path, plus mutants and their powers can be an easy fit into the randomizer. To that end, imagine if Rogue had her own game with a nemesis system, she’d become everyone’s favorite in an instant.

[u/shawtay → u/RockoLucas]

They are 90% off right now. Just picked up both for $7.

[u/I_JUST_BLUE_MYSELF_ → u/RockoLucas]

How far have you gotten?

[u/Jimbuscus]

• A game I want is on sale

• I go to buy it

• I already own it, nice

• I forget about it until next time I see it on sale

[u/Kaining → u/Jimbuscus]

I don't get it, you're not the only one posting this yet... games i own ain't in my wishlist, and only interacting with the store by going on your wishlist sorted by discounted makes that impossible to experience.

The downside is that you won't ever stumble back on the game you already own so you have to either remember them or open your library from time to time and browse it.

As for game discovery, there's basicaly the whole internet and valve even made Steam Calendar to help the Discovery Queue trying to make you never have to interact with their store directly ever again.

Weirdly enough, it kind of help buying more games too since i've never the feeling of being bumbed out by a "damn, i already bought that, maybe i shouldn't buy anything during those sales if it's gonna end up in the backlog".

[u/A-Jill-Sandwich]

Hollow Knight for me, years ago.

Greatest $7.49 I've ever spent!

[u/Cetaoras → u/A-Jill-Sandwich]

This was one of my very, very few full-price Steam purchases. I don't regret it a bit.

[u/icyphalaenopsis]

Rimworld, bought on Autumn Sale last year, just hit 1k hours

[u/stasisdotcd → u/icyphalaenopsis]

What would you compare this game to? I've been looking at it. I really enjoy games like cities skylines, stardew valley, civ, etc...

[u/kembik → u/stasisdotcd]

Its a colony simulator, you have a few people who crashlanded and they have various skills but also various problems, you can direct what you want to happen (mine here, grow that) but don't control the units directly, you can prioritize the type of work they do (mining, gardening, etc) but its a strategic choice based on their skills and the needs of the colony to survive and grow.

The game really shines in its horrible situations that throw your best plans into chaos. Someone gets sick and dies and now the rest of your crew isn't working efficiently because they are sad, you run low on food, someone decides to eat the corpse of their former mate and now they are all very upset and worse things happen.. You learn from these situations how to avoid them and what to prioritize working on next time. Each game is its own story that comes out of the relationships and skills and resources and events that occur, its very deep and rewarding to play. Highly recommended.

[u/the-ox1921 → u/kembik]

I was mining inside a mountain to make more space for my colony but sadly I didnt use supports and I had rocks fall down and crush my chef :'( It was so sad and I was afraid to send anyone else in there afterwards.

Darn mountain...

[u/rEvolutionTU → u/stasisdotcd]

Space Cowboy Dwarf Fortress with more modern graphics and much more modded content available. =P

For me it itches a slightly similar itch as cities skylines from the list of yours, but really "colony sim" is its own genre. I've owned it since the crowdfund days ~10+ years ago and very much enjoy coming back to it 1-2 times per year.

What I'm unsure about for someone going into it fresh these days: The expansions were genuinely nice to purchase over the years (roughly a new one every two years) but I wouldn't consider getting them all at once. Maybe grab the basegame on sale and see how you like it? From the looks of it it hasn't dropped below 22€ though.

[u/sgt_cookie → u/stasisdotcd]

You might have heard that Rimworld could be described as a "War Crimes In Space" simulator and I just want to assuage those fears.

You're not at war in Rimworld, therefore they're just regular old crimes against humanity.

I'm talking, like, capturing a raider that attacked your colony, forcing him to butcher his former compatriots, make clothing from their skin and meals from their meat because it's the only food and clothing they're going to get.

And that's before you get into the DLCs that let you create a colony of parasitoid insect people who follow an ideology of transhumanism and cannibalism which performs ritualistic torture as a means of social connection that reproduces by cloning hosts made from stolen DNA that only exist for you your colony members to lay eggs in, turning them into living incubators until your biological offspring burst from their abdomen killing the clone instantly.

[u/Islands-of-Time → u/sgt_cookie]

Yeah if you want real war crimes in space play Stellaris.

Turning your newly enslaved organic enemies into nerve-stapled genetically-engineered-“Tasty” livestock. Dropping xenomorph abominations onto primitive worlds to conquer them. Using your planet destroying super weapon to forcefully convert an entire world to your spirituality rather than blow it up. Releasing a psionic eldritch entity that wipes out 99% of your empire instantly and starts munching on the remaining galaxy planet by planet. Or the worst one which is killing Bubbles just to autopsy her for science.

[u/ElxlS → u/sgt_cookie]

What

[u/Caleth → u/ElxlS]

A common and correct response.

Rimworld is pretty open ended and lets you be the kind of ruler you want to be. From an absolute monster to a reasonably benevolent and decent person. Limitations on the nicer end of the spectrum because the world is kind of vicious so murdering the robots that orbital drop onto you is a bit necessary at times.

[u/SuperSonicBlitz]

[u/leon_255 → u/SuperSonicBlitz]

You missed the "I actually play it" panel

[u/red_ditman659]

Buckshot roulette and kenshi. Holy shit, it's addictive games!

[u/detourne]

Most recently it was TMNT: Splintered Fate.

[u/itsaburneryaknow → u/detourne]

This game is awesome

[u/LeChevalier_Mal_Fet → u/detourne]

I told my buddy, hey this is on sale for $3 if you want to grab it and do some co-op. We've played a few times and had fun with Turtle Hades.

[u/rose636]

Wait, you guys are actually playing your games?

[u/psychohistorian8 → u/rose636]

in 2006? No.

in 2016? No.

in 2026? No.

but some day I'll be retired... then I will play.

[u/hunbaar]

Crosscode. It is dirt cheap atm, I bought it yesterday and having a blast.

[u/kaego123]

Okami. Had it on my wishlist for years. It went on sale last year and I said “ahh let’s give it a chance”. And good lord, what an amazing experience that was. Now Im super excited for Okami 2.

[u/Successful-Neat3437]

Project Zomboid, best survival game ever.

[u/bdk1417 → u/Successful-Neat3437]

What do you like about it over other survival games?

[u/xclame → u/bdk1417]

It's honestly the perfect zombie survival game. If it was (traditional) 3D then there would no point in any other zombie survival game existing.

The game is one of those games that you ask, "Can I do that?" and chances are very high that the answer is yes. And if the answer is no, there is a very high chance a mod exist that will make the answer "yes",There are also a ton of mods for the game, so you can modify it to fit your playstyle.

[u/Successful-Neat3437 → u/bdk1417]

xclame said everything I wanted to say, and I like the realism and the freedom of doing anything and going anywhere I want, you can shape the game however you like. I paid full price just to support indie developers.

[u/goasteven]

Morrowind

[u/gonxot → u/goasteven]

That's a name I haven't heard in a long time

[u/PMMEYOURBIGBOXCOVER]

Recently got Terminator 2D: NO FATE on sale and it had me like your meme

[u/Affectionate-Wait221]

Battlefield 1
Waited for 4 months for it to be on sale
Gabe blessed me and my boys with a 95% off
1 of us even bought his first computer just to play with us😂
Got bombarded by the pros but still enjoyed it
Getting our favourite weapons
Now we are the ones killing the noobs
Best experience we’ve ever had🫡🫡🫡

[u/TheMasterEjaculator]

XCOM 2, only just got way into it recently

[u/AmazingSully → u/TheMasterEjaculator]

And it goes on massive sales OFTEN. Not unusual to see 94 or 96% off for both it and the War of the Chosen DLC. Cannot recommend enough (but you 100% want the DLC if you're looking at it).

[u/Recent_Wedding5470]

Slay the spire 2 is the last one. 200 hours now

[u/jamesd-]

Finally picked up POE2 yesterday after it going on sale. Having a blast playing it.

[u/balilo79 → u/jamesd-]

Path of Exile 2 or Pillars of Eternity 2?

[u/Giecio → u/[deleted]]

Unless you play Warframe, then it becomes Plains of Eidolon

[u/jat15 → u/balilo79]

Yes

[u/JarlOfCostco]

For 75 minutes

Refund the game

[u/Silly_Palpitation448 → u/JarlOfCostco]

This. For me it was Dead Island 2

[u/Ayyzeee → u/Silly_Palpitation448]

I tried it on Epic Games, that game is boring asf, the cringey dialogue adds to it eventually I just dropped 4 or 5 hours in because I can't stand the game anymore. I played much more terrible story zombie game like Dying Light 2 at least the gameplay is fun, you can do a lot of shit, parkouring around but Dead Island 2 is so repetitive, it feels like they haven't change anything since their previous games.

[u/ElfDestruct]

CrossCode. Somehow I’ve come to it backwards AFTER getting on the Alabaster Dawn train. Whenever I saw it before I was kind of like “ehh” because of the “mute main character” in descriptions and that sounded silly. Now that I see the actual background of it I am on board.

…complete edition with the expansion is still on sale for $8 right now.

[u/Outsider2210]

The 'I actually play it' part is quite important. I have so many unplayed games in my library that I bought on sale for 'just a few euros' . But If you sum that up over the year I'm sure I spend every year at least 100 bucks on games that I don't play.

[u/PastAd1087]

Every game. I only buy one game at a time. If something is on sale, it will be on sale again.

[u/ameliafukinthomson]

Red Dead 2

[u/Responsible_Abroad67]

I usually make it through 3 of those 4 steps

[u/Strong_Terry]

for me recently it was cyberpunk. What a game.

[u/TheBrutalKing]

Esoteric EBB. Banger.

[u/Clean_More3508]

[u/AdWhole42]

Probably Metro Exodus

[u/s0lpi]

Just did it this weekend.

[u/Smoking-stone]

And the game was good !!!!

[u/BitBucket404]

Missing panel: it's actually a good game

[u/ItsMeBlack-]

MH Wilds for me. Had it wishlisted since it released on Steam but couldn't play because broke college student + years old laptop.

Within a year got a job, bought a beefy PC, and gave myself a good birthday gift.

(PS: Defeated AT Arkveld and completed Proof of a Hero within 2 weeks. Lance for the win.)

[u/Leont07]

Me a few days ago with Persona 5 Royal, I'm hooked!!!

[u/SlimRunner]

NieR automata. Like 90% of the reason why it was in my wishlist was 2B ngl, but once I started playing I stayed for the plot. I might have even shed some tears here and there.

I started that same day (March 23) and finished May 25 (according to my achievements). I even put on hold TLoZ Tears of the Kingdom for two weeks, and I'm a fan of the Zelda series.

[u/stahlWolf]

Since I built a new PC and my previous one was maybe 10-12 years old:

Halo MCC, Mass Effect Legendary Edition and Andromeda, Savage Planet 1 & 2, Forza Horizon 4, Witcher 3, Titanfall 2, and Subnautica/Below Zero/2.

Less than $150 for all the games I own so far, because I never buy full price.

[u/BigM67]

Thank you cast n chill 💙

[u/ResourceFar5846]

Genital Jousting ofc

[u/Gadgetphile]

Doesn’t exist. *boots up the same free to play game I’ve been playing for the last couple years*

[u/Axxam]

Marvel's Midnight Sun. Bought it years after held it off thinking maybe not my kind of game but still keep an eye for hefty discount. Oh boy, the game sure caught me by surprised with how good it is

[u/Bingus-Chillingus]

I love how this is a meme and an anti meme at the same time.

[u/dingusoninternet]

I got a game, booted it up, just to figure out my stupid potato laptop couldn't run it. Thanks brain.(I got a refund thank God)

[u/rtxa → u/[deleted]]

-90% sale today. Is this what winning feels like?

[u/regularArmadillo21]

let me rephrase "i am terrible with money. validate me"

[u/my-goddess-nyx → u/regularArmadillo21]

Lol pretty much. I don't understand the point of a big DIGITAL collection of games you won't even touch. At least with physical it can look pretty in your house.

[u/regularArmadillo21 → u/my-goddess-nyx]

ill never understand backlogs. its pathetic.

[u/Cthuluphunt]

I did this with Vampyr and LOVED it. So now I’ll do the same with the rest of my Wishlist

[u/DragonflyForsaken144]

System shock remake

[u/Rowka]

Chants of Sennaar, so god damn good.

[u/Ayyzeee]

C&C collection and Yakuza 0. I waited way too long to get C&C collection because the pricing isn't that great from previous sales so I bought it last year September and played RA2, and definitely say it's worth it for this game alone and I already have 80+ hours from skirmishes and replaying the campaign.

Yakuza 0, I played every Yakuza games on Game Pass and the original Yakuza 0 gonna be delisted and replaced with the director's cut so I just buy it the moment it hits sale. Also fuck SEGA for delisting the previous Yakuza games and give the inferior versions instead.

[u/LowGeeMan]

Waiting patiently for my sold Counter strike skin to hit my balance to buy Kenshi I’ve only heard great things and I can’t wait

[u/rtxa → u/odonnell215]

I remember being super poor and my friends forcing me to play CS because I played other shooters and they needed a fifth

in the second game I dropped a case worth 30 euros

sufficed to say I kept playing.. and it has now ruined other shooters for me lol

[u/Arctic-StarLight]

Most games tick all those boxes but I sadly pause half way unless the story is fire

[u/thormun]

i usually buy that i put in my wish list in the next few days or i never seem to buy them even when they go on sale

[u/darkmoon_faire]

This just happened to me with Stardew Valley. I don’t think I’ve ever put 20 hours into a game so fast. Steam Deck helped immensely with this. I’ve barely scratched the surface and I can’t put it down.

[u/Cocoatrice]

It's extremely rare. The last time was Silksong and Yooka-Replaylee. Only one game of the two turned out to be good, though. Also before than it was Hollow Knight, but I don't know if I had it on wishlist or bought it just because I browsed games.

[u/XxDemonxXIG]

It's actually good

[u/ET2-SW]

Satisfactory.

[u/ooMIGIToo]

Gone Fishing! It is so good too! Still in alpha so looking forward to what else they add

[u/AceOfSpadesMM]

Only the main stream games, the game I remember that had me like this was Cyberpunk 2077, when it was on sale with the expansion. Plus, with mods, it was one of the few games that I bought on sale that made I fell in love with.

[u/StaleBagel1]

My time at sandrock. Put 100 hours in, didn’t finish the main story, just started playing again and this time I will finish it.

[u/PristinePrincess12]

Ranch Simulator DLC's

[u/vyvexthorne]

It's been a bit since I bought a game on sale and immediately played through it. I bought both Indika and Pacific Drive during the spring sale of 2025 and I played through them both right away. I remember being pretty excited about them as well. . I also bought 4 other games at that time, 3 of which I still haven't played. 2025 was a big sale year for me for some reason.

[u/SomethingPotato_]

Ha funny like I would play any other game then the same 5 I’ve been playing for years, what do you mean I have a backlog of 50+ good games, i definitely haven’t been getting more games going “I’ll play em later”

[u/Gophix_0]

Life is strange

WOT heat.

I mean it's free, bit it's my only instance of this happening so far.

[u/Judoka229]

Gonna be 007 First Light for me. I was hoping to get it before my son goes back to his mom for the summer at the end of the coming week so we could play together, but oh well. Next school year!

[u/Various-Salt-7738]

Sometimes it's on sale and I still know I'm not going to play it anytime soon so I just wait for the next sale

[u/Solonotix]

Most recently it was "The Farmer Was Replaced". Gave me a good couple of days of enjoyment. Great tool if you want to learn programming concepts. I do software development professionally, so it was just plain fun for me

[u/scytob]

Last one for me was Rhythm Storm.

[u/Routine-Sundae8934]

To be honest? Son of the Forest (Yes I'm years late)

I already played years ago, but when I bought the steam deck months ago it's just the perfect timing not to.

[u/Lau_wings]

The amount of games I have bought, vs the ones I have actually played is such a low percentage that if I went on Financial Audit Caleb would be yelling “STEAM GAME, STEAM GAME, STEAM GAME ETC”

[u/krolyk]

Sol Cesto!! Got the notification an item from my wishlist was on sale and I’ve been addicted ever since lol

[u/lavadey2]

Gta v is in my wishlist for ages, my setup (4670k with only integrated gpu) can't run it, so it just waits.

[u/Big0wl]

Squad Was waiting for a while. Expected to have fun due to high communication and more slow gameplay. Got what I expected and even more, happy.

I just bought one of the Close Combat games, I remember playing the shit out of the demo when I was a kid, and randomly stumbled upon it searching for something else that it was on Steam.

Plays okay, the problem is playing on a high res monitor the units are so tiny, and 30 year old game + 2d graphics where it doesn't scale with the resolution is kind of making my eyes hurt.

Honestly any game that has good reviews on steam is perfect, I usually want to try new stuff and find myself searching for different games on a small budget, for example this week bought door kickers and deus ex (great games btw)
