Ridiculous as it may seem, I'm trying to amass some money in the wallet by selling those summer sale cards, to buy something interesting, just don't know exactly what right now.
Other than that, I'm rather disappointed with most of the games and DLC I believe I'd spend some cash without thinking too much about it not having big enough discounts. In some cases, the discounts aren't even the best discounts for the games yet, having been cheaper in the past.
Still, I think I'll get something by the end of the sale. I'm just not 100% sure what right now.

I finally pulled the trigger on Bombshell. Also bought Kyn and Stories: The Path of Destinies. Played about 15 minutes of each, then I decided to go for a refund, for the first time ever. I was already displeased with all three of them before I had actually pressed Play. Will probably get Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and The Count Lucanor instead.
In other news, I bought Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Edition, and while not really a bargain, this one actually seems to be worth the money. Haven't really played much yet, but it seems very well optimized and user-friendly, with lots of menu options.
I also got two smaller games, Virginia and Milkmaid of the Milky Way.
I kind of wish I had never heard of Half-Life, Portal and Oddworld before, because then there'd be really cool offers for me to take advantage of and I'd be in for a treat. But I guess that's precisely the reason why these bundles are so cheap, because everyone and their mother already owns the games ... XD
All in all the discounts aren't that impressive, but what's annoying is that some are still better than they were during the GOG sale.

Thoroughly underwhelmed by the sale. I'd made a list of games to watch for before the sale and hardly anything is discounted. Ori? 10%. Hollow Knight? 15%. Night in the Woods? Nope. Epistory? Haha nope.
Ori: 50%. Hollow Knight + soundtrack: 50%. Epistory: 35%. Only NitW is full-priced.

Just picked up Enter The Gungeon; because after fully completing The Binding of Isaac it looks like this will scratch the same sorta itch and be one of those games that helps kill time when I've only got a bit to spare.
Also got Danganronpa 1 and 2. I played them on Vita a few years ago but don't have that anymore and have been wanting to replay them. Would highly recommend them to anyone who likes VN type games and general craziness.

I spent most of my money here on GOG and I was not very impressed by Steam's sale.

The only thing I've bought so far was Hitman (2016). Unless Vanquish gets a discount I'm not really planning on getting anything else.

Dishonored 2 seems slightly tempting, but like GR00T I'm kind of at the point where it just seems dumb to buy more games when I have so many other big games (that I actually want to play, too) that are still on my backlog.
I'll pass this round.

Didn't yet get anything, but thinking of getting the Valve complete pack (don't own most of it) since I guess their chance of appearing on GOG are basically non existent and they don't have any 3rd party DRM on them except steamworks (I guess). That would be a good value I guess.
I know this is a bit redundant question, as a few year old topics on such a question would now appear... should we say not very accurate... but can we go a bit off-topic and muse on whether there are any excellent game on steam discounted in this sale that has almost no chance of appearing here on GOG? And 3rd Party DRMs are Not Welcome.

Only Shadow of Mordor.
I was waiting for Dark Soul 1 discount but it didn't happen. :(...
P.A.M.E.L.A. it's tempting but after Starbound I'm very sceptical about early access games (and tbh it's also a little too expensive for me right now :P)

If you've still got any money, I'd recommend the Stalker series if you haven't already got them. They are really good Open World FPS set in a post-apocalyptic Chernobyl!

So, I amassed enough money from card selling to grab something from my wishlist. Still not sure if I get Project Highrise or, maybe, Stardew Valley.
There are a few other games on my wishlist I could get, like Disgaea 1, Double Dragon 4, Azure Striker Gunvolt, Ducktales or Code of Princess.
Any suggestions, people? I'd appreciate it. ^_^
