It's That Time Of The Year Again...
The annual ritual where your wallet screams in terror while Steam dangles those sweet 90% off deals in front of you. You're excitedly grabbing every discounted game like it's Christmas morning, completely ignoring the 247 unplayed games from last year's sale still gathering digital dust in your library. Meanwhile, Epic Games is sitting at the bottom of the ocean like a forgotten skeleton, having given you so many free games that you've become completely numb to their existence. They literally gave away GTA V and you still haven't installed it. The hierarchy of attention is clear: Steam Winter Sale is the golden child, last year's backlog is the neglected middle child desperately trying to get noticed, and Epic's freebies are the family skeleton we don't talk about anymore. Your backlog isn't just drowning—it's achieving new depths of abandonment.

How Many Unplayed Games Do You Guys Have?
Steam Winter Sale hits different when you're a developer. You already spend 12 hours a day staring at code, debugging someone else's spaghetti, and arguing with CI/CD pipelines. The last thing you want to do is boot up a game that requires... more thinking. So instead, you buy 47 games at 80% off because "it's a good deal" and "I'll definitely play this when I have time." Spoiler: you won't. That backlog just keeps growing while you convince yourself that buying more games is somehow different from hoarding. It's not. The real game is watching your library percentage drop from 15% to 4% played and pretending that's fine. That's the endgame content right there.
