Game dev tycoon - Wanted to buy this game so baaad, but still to expensive imo
Mafia 2 - Price of the Game was lifted from 20 to 30€, when it reappeared on steam store, really big dick move.... the discount is great, but the price is just too high
Watchdogs - high price / low discount really not liking it
Deadpool - same as mafia 2... Price rised after movie release from 20 to 30€, Discount too low for me to pick it up

edit: Skyrim LE (DLC? edition) WTF? LIKE WTF?

Nope, LotF is still 20€. They just decided not to put the base game on sale and only discount the GOTY edition which is 30€. Is it a dick move? Kinda, considering most DLC is utterly useless.

little ones DLC was released recently and shipwreck is still in early access so it's kinda of understandable to have low discounts

I think publishers like the concept of product bundling by " humble bundle " and other third party websites more than Steam Store!.

hope they have some collection one day as want a lot of their games. 40% off their new Doom game wasn't to bad as just got released but saying that the RSP is pretty high in the first place so still rather expensive

I've paid full price for it twice and between steam and my vita I've easily got 100 hours. I love the game. Watch some let's plays if you aren't sure but I think it's worth it very much.

GalCiv3... want it but they've bitten me in the past overcharging massively for expansions. Trying to wait it out until the final gold version, not sure I wanna support that bullshit. But do want. Gahhh :(

£23 for part of a game does not a sale make.

No, they didn't. It now just gives extra discount if you own base game.

They just want to cash in on upgrades.

I guess you'd be better hunting discount elsewhere, like physical copies and resellers/trades who have 'old stock'.

I was super disappointed about Game Dev Tycoon too, I've been waiting for quite a while for it to go on sale but for a 2-3 euro difference it's not really worth it. I'm still hoping it will get bundled one day, even though it doesn't seem likely.

edit: Was also expecting Rise of the Tomb Raider to be a bit cheaper, but for some reason this year it looks like shitty discounts for most AAA games.

Sniper Elite 3 got a good sale but the base price is still way too high
Watch_Dogs is not below 10 euros
Batman Arkham Knight is not below 10 euros
Far Cry 4 is not below 10 euros
Assassins Creed Rogue and Unity -45% and -50% only
Bioshock Infinite Season pass -50% only

and many more but I wanted these the most

Ok, in your case you are expecting water to trun into wine. Far Cry 4 is too new for the publisher, same with Batman, AC:R & Un. Same with Watch_Dogs. It's Ubisoft. They'd never have a more than -50% sale in most cases.
Also, Bioshock Infinite's Season Pass hasn't been more than -50% ever... From what I can see, you're getting the average sales there. No real issue that I can spot at least.

just for an example: I bought AC Black Flag for 7.49 euros on 2014 december, the game was released on 2013 november and it got a -75% sale

all of the Ubisoft games I wanted to buy cheaper are more than 1 year old

Ubisoft had good deals in the past, not anymore :(

also Arkham Knight was (is?) a mess on PC and the developers have given up on fixing it, I hoped it would get a bigger discount

Arkham Knight just got base price drop before sale, so bad discount was expected, same with Ubisoft & Bethesda.

I'm extremely disappointed myself. Most games were cheaper in normal weekly sales than they are now. I have about the same budget as last year and will probably buy 3-4 games with those fucking low discounts instead of a dozen plus giveaway fodder, which I've been able to purchase in 2015's sale.

I know this is going to piss a lot of people, but GOG.com had a better summer sale than steam has this year. Hell, if you purchased at least 1 game from there, you get Spelunky for free (if enough XP is reached).

A game I got today has a 0% discount on Steam Sale still like $50 and a 90% discount at DLGamer. hmm.
Even Amazon beats Steam prices often.

The low discounts are only because the games aren't on daily deal. Wait for that.

They don't do that anymore. The discounts are constant through out the whole sale because of the refund feature.

Really disappointed by the lack of discount on Ori. It's pretty much the same game as before just with a little added, not sure why they didn't give it even a 10-25% discount.

So i will wait till it's around 60-80% and then get the digital deluxe Bundle, there are
enough other and newer Stuff i want, so ROTR will have to wait now...
