    Excited to buy 20 more games I won’t get around to playing. Especially if they are cheap!

    There’s a few games I’ve been meaning to get so I’m actually looking forward to this specific sale.

      My strategy these past few years is to check isthereanydeal.com for any game I want during a Steam sale. Most other storefronts have their own sales around the same time as the big Steam ones and there’s usually at least one that has it at a lower price. There’s also a browser plugin that adds an isthereanydeal.com link to every Steam page, which makes this super easy when browsing for games.

      If you haven’t seen a sale before it’s usually a heck of a lot of stuff (feels like the whole site).

      I was reeeaaally tempted to get it last time it was discounted but the rational skeptic in me knows it’d be just a forgotten toy on the side within a month since I’m used to gaming on my (pretty good) desktop. Even if you travel a lot it only has a few hours of battery life so you can’t take it too far from civilization anyway

        Would an external battery pack be able to keep it going? I have a battery pack that claims it can put out up to 18W. It’s really meant for phones, but wonder if it can keep a Steam Deck going, too?

      Maybe it will be on Game Pass though. Seems like the kind of game I’d rather own than rent, but perhaps at launch I’ll try it on Game Pass and then buy later.
