>>320479581
Dec 22
Sometime this weekend, could be tomorrow or late sunday.
>>320479581
Honestly if there was a single game I wanted I would already have it.
>>320479828
They wouldn't start that late
>>320479939
It doesn't matter when they start it, it's going to be lifeless shit now that they've sucked the last bit of excitement out of it by killing flash/daily sales.
>>320479890
Not everyone has a well paying job or know how to pirate.
>>320480227
Then they have better things to do then buying and playing vidya.
>>320480227
literally how
ffs i majored in philosophy and still make enough money to live comfortably and buy vidya whenever i please
>>320479581
Gabe called it off this year anon, sorry to have to tell you. He might - just MIGHT - stop by your house and give you -10% off a game, if you leave out milk and lots of cookies.
>>320479581
who cares at this point?
Can't wait for some stupid card collecting shit again with average discounts for games everyone already owns?
>>320479939
Too bad, paypal said so.
why do people depict Gaben as Santa when WE'RE the consumers giving money TO HIM
Santa should be giving shit to us, not receiving dos
Are they still doing the "One average discount price for the whole sale" thing? Really made the last sale pointless past the first day.

Its all gonna be one sale. No flash or daily or community sales. Nothing that made them interesting. Its gonna suck cock

>>320479581
Probably sometime between the 18th and 22nd
>>320480881
Everyone is really hyped about spending their holiday buying video games to participate in some gambling scheme

>Gabe cancelled Christmas
>>320481052
>expecting sane decisions from Valve after they tried to sell mods
>>320480036
except they didn't?
>>320485569
Werent you here for the fall sale?
>>320485613
yes but that's not THE winter sale is it?
>>320485805
You seem to have missed their announcement on the fact that "it will be like this from now on".
So unless the fall sale did specifically bad enough to make them turn that decision, its what we are getting (+ shitty gambling scheme mini-game)
>>320480291
This to be honest.
test
cuck

Soon, bro. Don't worry. It'll be worth the weight. Gaben is building up for the biggest letdown in Steam sale history. I'm going to sit here and guffaw at all the raging autists. It's gonna be good.
>>320486746
Depends, if they make another nice ruse of a gambling scheme they'll rake in the attention and money just as always.
Remember it doesn't need to be a good sale for the average pleb, just needto seem like one.
People will gladly spend $20 on 10 shit games they didn't want then play them for several hours which they didn't enjoy for that miniscule chance to win a free $60 game, which they won't.
>>320485878
I think the reason it has to be like that is because of steam refunds. So many people will buy a game at the start of the sale and end up wanting to refund and rebuy when the game goes on a even deeper discount daily deal.
>>320487894
So?
make a better system then
Honestly Steam can suck my dick, I made a support ticket for a minor account issue 4 months ago, and after they tried to automatically close it they took another week to tell me "No", and when questioned again I got a nice "We've provided full support to your issue" message.
For taking 30% of every dollar spent in Steam, these people are the fucking scummiest jewbags I've ever seen, fucking chink stolen-key sites have tighter support.

>400+ games on steam
>85 to 90% backlog
>$20 on 10 shit games they didn't want
>wash rinse repeat for a few years
>reach over 400 games
>kinda want to play a few
>can't find the time to play because work slave
>free time spent looking at steam sales
>instead of playing games
GOD DAMMIT! I JUST WANT TO PLAY GAMES!
>>320479581
90% sure it's going to be the 22nd. Someone mentioned the Paypal leak which accurately predicted the autumn sale dates. I'd wait until either the 20th or 22nd, but it's almost definitely the 22nd.
I have no idea why it's that late this year. It goes against traditional logic, but it fits the leak.
