Anyone get some random trading cards lately? I miss a promo or something? Games I haven't played in a long time either, like This War of Mine. At one point I got a card from like 4 different games one morning when I logged in. It's not like someone's playing on my account, the latest games listing in my library isn't showing any evidence of that.

I got a payday 2 booster pack last month and that game has been uninstalled since 2014, and a week or two ago I got a Saint's Row 3 card when I haven't had that installed in a really long time either.

Do you know if there's a listing of what's going to be on sale? I can't seem to find one.

I have a specific rule applied for all steam sales, I only purchase those from my wishlist with minimum 50% off.
Witcher 3 was the only game I paid full price in the last couple years. #patientgamers

At this point once you are past 2 or 3 steam sales there is not much else to buy since the discounts run for 2 weeks and are all pretty meh since they run so long. Daily 90% off flash sales have long since disappeared.
best thing is just to put every game that sounds interesting on your wish list and steam just emails you whenever they go on sale

Just had 2 endless space cards show up. I think it's related to changes Steam made to the card system late last year.

I wonder if they recently adjusted/fixed the confidence metric or something then and that's why we're getting cards for prior playtime.
Edit: quoted 5th hand from a random Steam comment, this makes some sense -
Games that previously didn't have cards but have since added them or games that have expanded the size of their card deck grant card drops retroactively based on your play time as of a recent Steam update.

Another day, another card waiting for me, the first Total War Warhammer.
Steam announced publisher/developer home pages, which could be nice. Steam Blog :: Announcing: Developer & Publisher Homepages Beta on Steam
Would be nice if we could create those for groups / events (like a LAN party)

Free copy of Swords and Soldiers via Steam. Played this back on the Wii and enjoyed it, not sure if it holds up but free is free.

The prices seem better than other sales in recent memory; lots of 70s and 75s this go around. Still not planning on buying much of anything because of an enormous backlog.
