Compulsive purchases, shameful!

Actually I've been using Steam for 9+ years, I've only purchased 70 games since.

Yeah, I use Steam for 9 years, too. Only bought 10 games on steam since (counting cs 1.6 twice, since my old account got hacked in 2005 when my pw was very low security). I usually only buy games on steam if it makes sense (e.g. aren't availabe anywhere else). And I usually tend to spend a lot of my time on one good game instead of spending it on 30 decent games. This being said, 100 games+ is an insane number. I really have trouble to play 20 games I bought over the last years...

Not really, if you buy one humble bundle you get ~ 10 games. Out of those, there is usually 1 you really want to play, a few you might try for half an hour to an hour, and 1-2 you don't even touch. Still a good purchase usually since its so cheap for 5-6$.

I have 182 games on steam and I finished 75% of them. And I have some which I spent hundreds of hours on.
I can understand people being a bit scared of the DRM effect from steam itself tho.

You can play it all offline if you want to, you can make backups of everything if you want to and Steam has stated that if they go out of business they will release all the games to be played DRM free.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I know. I'm not one who is scared about it.
But I can understand people who are and prefer to buy outside of steam in websites like gog or gmg.

In the end i got myself:

Alan Wake
Bastion
Brothers: A tale of two sons (Played it through today, what a phenomenal game, i was blown away how good it was)
Dark Souls (20+ hours in the last 4 days, lol)
Deus Ex: HR
Max Payne 3
Metro 2033
Metro Last Light
Civ V
Super Hexagon (wtflol)
System Shock 2
Trine
Trine 2
World of Goo


So yeah..not too shabby for starters. :D

Trine
Wizardry 8 (everyone should have played this game)
Sind of Solar empire Rebellion

EU4 from humblestore for 7 euro




Seriously, go play wizardry 8, one of the best rutn based combat RPGs ever seen, especially on PC.
My father imported it for me when i was little, i played it without even understanding half of it. And IMO it aged well.

Deal is live, except it's even cheaper - $2.49 after credit.

Anyone interested in any of the games from this Amazon bundle? I'm probably not going to spend all my EC credits, so I wouldn't mind buying a couple to split up:

Darksiders
Darksiders 2 + DLC
Supreme Commander + Forged Alliance
Titan Quest Gold
Alan Wake
Alan Wake: American Nightmare

for a total cost of $8.

Looks amazing! Wish I didn't already buy Darksiders 2 on Steam already.

Been using it for 10 years, I have 120 games. Though like 15 of them were from a screwup last year on a website where I got them all for like $2 instead of like $40. I also got a lot from the humble bundle and activated on steam. Really, most of my purchases have been in the couple years. There didn't seem to be much to buy in the first 6 or so.

This winter sale I did things a bit differently, I just dropped 25€ on my account on the first day and bought stuff until I depleted the credit. This is what I got:

Kerbal Space Program
Rage
Walking Dead: Season 1
Left for Dead 2 (bonus )

I was actually really torn to buy more stuff after spending all my credits but thankfully I was too lazy to pull my credit card out.

That is definitely a good way of controlling how much you spend. I did a similar thing back on Summer Sale to control how many games I bought.
