(Checks Steam sale.)
Looks like I'm buying more games.
I've added the latter to my wishlist.
Its my impression or steam dont give cards for christmas this time ?
only give some stickers
On the website if you go under your name -> badges there is a Winter Sale 2024 badge.
"How can I earn more cards? Steam Sale trading cards are awarded for purchases made on the Steam Store during the sale." So pay to win?
It also adds "Earn even more Steam Sale trading cards by crafting game badges." but I have no idea what that means. Craft them out of what exactly?

Games come with cards you can collect. Playing those games gives you about half of the cards from the set. If you get the whole set, by buying or trading the remaining cards from other players, you can trade those in for a game-specific badge. That's referred to as "crafting" by Valve. Crafting badges makes you eligible for "booster packs" of other cards.

In addition to the previous comment, I'd like to point out that if you "craft" badges during events such as this one, you get an event card in addition to your badge. This is also why I typically craft my badges during events.
