Curious about sales...
For people who know how sales work on Steam, does anyone anticipate this game going on any of a bigger discount than what it is now?

I know that it was just recently released, but as someone who's disabled, severely chronically ill, tube fed and bedridden, I can't work and haven't for so many years.

I really want to play this game and I know it most definitely deserves the full price tag, but it's difficult to be really into games (have been for as long as I can remember) and not be able to work to afford amazing games.

So. If anyone who knows how sales work on Steam: do you suspect a sale coming up that will be better than the Spring sale discount?

Many thanks! 💜

Buy the bundle with Thief Simulator for almost the same price. Don't think it's going to be significantly cheaper in the next couple months.

When I checked what the price was for the bundle, it still costs more than the game on sale... And I can't afford it.

I wish I could purchase every game I want to play, but I'm disabled, severely chronically ill, tube fed, bedridden, etc., So I can't work to make money to purchase games that deserve the amount they charge. 😓

Unfortunately, the discount sale is already over. That's why, even if you go with a bundle, there is no discount at all. You will have to wait some time, probably a few months before we get any discount. Unless a publisher makes their own sale.

Yeah, it was a short sale and getting money that fast is impossible for me. It really sucks as I really wanted this game and another game to pass the time because I'm bedridden nearly 24/7 and it's a boring life. 😓

And with the spring sale, the bundle price was higher than the price of the actual game I wanted, which is something I wasn't even able to afford when it was just the 1 game, and the bundle was more expensive.

I do hope they do another sale soon because even though I know this game (and one other game I want as well) are worth the full price, being in the situation I'm in, it's very difficult to get new games that gives me something to do, especially when I'm hospitalized.

You can get both Contraband Police and Mechanic Simulator 2021 for 43% off right now on Steam! Is that price still too steep for you? That's less than $20.00 CAD, but you're American so the price will reflect that accordingly! Best of luck to you, because by the sounds of it you really do need a distraction!
