Steam Autumn Sale 2023 is live with huge savings

Quoting: AndroidNougat7This sale is finally a chance, to clean up my wishlist entirely.

Horizon Zero Dawn for 12.49€ is a great deal.

I did this one year, it felt fantastic to take a serious look at each game and clear out 100+ stuff.

Usually I'll throw games on the list I see on gaming news sites and then wait until they are out of early access or a while before I compare and do a deep dive.

My appreciation for GOG has grown a lot too as I am sick of buying a game 5 times over and that it MUST be online to play.

For archival reasons always online is no bueno.

Not quite the Steam Autumn Sale but I've just picked up Afterimage in a Humble Bundle sale for GBP6.29, which is a very enjoyable MV although I've only played a little over an hour so far. Works fine with Proton 8 and my F310 controller.

Im looking at several games...... Not sure which why I will go yet...... There will be the Winter Sale next month....... So whatever I dont get now I will get then.......

Only a few small titles for me this time, because I've got some Bomberman 40th Anniversary merch pre-orders that're due to ship later this month. Less than a fiver got me;

BomberZone (44p)
Capcom Arcade Stadium: Pirate Ship Higemaru (£1.06)
Chop Goblins (£3.19)

And, of course, this is thoroughly expected of me, but I just have to give a shout-out for my beloved Super Bomberman R 2, which is currently on sale over on Fanatical for £24.74.

I did not expect that at all...... Not at all...... No siree....... Not one bit....... Totally unexpected........

I want more, and we're not likely to see a new game for a while - it's not like the old days when they were released more often (the two-year span between 1996 and 1998 saw about 17 games in 7 different genres, whereas over the last seven years we've only seen 4 games in 1 genre).

Hahahahahahaha!

Anyway, I might go back for the Commander Keen Complete Pack for £1.59, as well, but that'll most likely be it for me until the Winter Sale.

Damn its been ages since ive thought about Commander Keen........ I wonder how well it holds up today.........

I bought some future Dick Trickle material.......

SRX: The Game (17.58 Dollarydoos)
MotoGP™20 (4.64 Dollarydoos)
Gravel (2.49 Dollarydoos)

That should keep Dick Trickle busy for quite a while....... Or until the next major sale at least......

Don't forget to wishlist Jazz Jackrabbit too.

From wishlist, only It takes two had over 50% discount (my rule to purchase something I had not intended to that month or a full price) so just got it. Perhaps next month there are a few more.

I also tend to clean my wishlist of items to keep it not bigger than 30 to reduce fomo, over spending and stress if I can't finish a game in good time (looking at you, Baldur's Gate 3)
