Because they're a business and want to make money. Simplest explanation there is.

I'm not sure if it's on sale, but Endless Space 2 is awesome, 4x game. Totally recommend it, I've actually spent more time on that series than Civ I think O.o

bought northgard, it's only 15% off and it's an early access game, but still, it's surprisingly polished already and a lot of fun, it's a different kind of rts, people compare it to banished and settlers or civ, can recommend, I'm having way more fun than I had in civ5.

multiplayer is really active as well.

lol the same inconsistency of cheaper bundle than discounted game is with The Witness+Braid

Quote Buy The Witness SUMMER SALE! Offer ends in 31:19:44 -50% £29.99 £14.99

Buy The Witness + Braid BUNDLE (?) Buy this bundle to save 20% off all 2 items! Bundle info £40.98 £14.18

But the game is discounted even more on Humble Store

this comes in their DRM-FREE sale (so I imagine you can download the game outside Steam if you don't want to use that)

I haven't bought anything on Steam for over a year now (skipped summer sale 2016 and winter sale 2016), opting for "trying" to play and finish my steam backlog of games; so far it's working

This sale I decided to get only 2 DLCs

Substance Designer will have to wait, maybe for further drop in price

My final purchase was subnautica. I have a co-worker here who picked it up and loves it. Every day he keeps asking me "so did you get subnautica yet?"

oh yeah, was finishing today... didn't get anything this time, although there were couple things I was tempted to get just because.

Got Dead Cell, love it

Fallout is free to own on Steam, offer ends September 30th

"10+ FREE games*! This weekend only, every 6 hours we will have a new free game and a sick deal for you on our V.I.P page! "

It's frustrating me that Dark Souls 3's DLC isn't on sale in the steam thanksgiving sale. It's currently a dollar more expensive than the base game. I figured waiting a few months would net me a deal. I was really disappointed with DS3's mechanics and world design, but I still want to experience the DLC for the lore.

It answers many lore related questions and is a fitting end to the series. Worth the price.

I noticed this happens often, the big SP DLC for Bioshock Infinite never went below 50% for ages and think to remember there was the same price situation.

Not about what it's worth. My issue is what I can pay.

Another free game on Humble Bundle! It's XCOM Declassified

It's not great but I had it in the list for a while just to play something random. Can't get better than this.
