Yeah, I do believe I read somewhere that sales are up since removing flash deals. It's way less stressful to people who don't have time to babysit Steam. See something you like now? Get it without worry.
I'm just pointing out why the sales don't seem as good. Publishers are less willing to provide big discounts when said discounts have to run the entire two weeks instead of 8/24/48 hours.
Is that statement based on fact or speculation?
Looks interesting, is there a first person mode ?I only picked up Abzu.
The client has been working perfectly fine for me. The only issue Steam has is when the new store content is loaded, it takes about 30 minutes or so to work everything out. Considering there are millions of people on the Steam client at the same time, I say it's forgivable. While the store gets itself sorted out, I just play a game and check back after an hour or so. Besides, it's not like we have flash deals anymore, so you're not going to miss out on anything if you just wait a bit.2 hours until the daily refresh, and it's super sluggish, in the client at least. All I wanted to do was check what shipping was for the Steam Link. Price matched amazon will suit me much better.
Honestly, it's pathetic. Maybe it's just regional, or maybe nobody that works at Valve has decided to work on infrastructure for a long time.
EDIT: The storefront from my browser is running fine, it's the client that's borked up.

Perhaps the best puzzle game ever made - The Talos Principle, $10 but get the package for $14.
The deals last until July 5th. There are no daily deals. The only thing changing is the features on the front page. You'll be fine, impatient one.I wouldn't say it's forgivable at all.
And as of right now, my client is not lagging. At the time of my post, the client was sluggish and non-responsive while the web site from a browser was perfectly fine.
I'm also WELL aware of what happens to the store around refresh time, but as I said, it was acting up 2 hours before the refresh (something it's never done to me before), ONLY on my client. And when the sale started (actually started )this time, it took a good 4 hours, not 30 minutes, before the site stabilized. It happens every time, without fail. It's well past forgivable.
This isn't my first rodeo, there's no need to treat me like it is.

Also got the Elegant Engineering bundle for about 13-14 bucks.

I hate sales. My eyes/memory betray me, lol.When did you pick it up? It's $17.65 right now.
I love this game. It amazes me that the team behind Serious Sam could go in such a different direction and nail it.
Thinking of the following - any good ?
talos $14
styx master of darkenss $6
deus mankind delux $22
-
hum. maybe not. maybe ?
There goes another $14. I need to stop reading this thread.Perhaps the best puzzle game ever made - The Talos Principle, $10 but get the package for $14.
The Talos Principle used to have a Demo. I played it. It also had a bigger discount in the past (it was half the current price). Steam Sales are going backwards.
