With the crap sale Epic is having Spalls posted about, I thought I'd 
check if Steam & GOG are having sales since they seem to at the same 
time.  Much better deals at both.  Bunch of my wishlisted games on both, 
and some games up to 95% off.

I also found this one on Steam which looks fun, though may be too cartoony:

En Garde! which is 70% off and $6 now.

This is the 90% off on Steam on my wishlist, however recent reviews have 
dropped a lot.  Still only $3

My best discount on GOG for wishlist is 60%, again recent reviews have 
dropped, but not as much as the last one.

One of my favorite games is 95% off for $1.  Of course I already have 
it.  I know endless space ship action combat isn't for everyone, but I 
loved it, and come on, it's a dollar:

I don't see anything else that catches my eye in the 90% off on GOG, but 
there are some X-Com games and the Deponia games (I played a demo of one 
and it was o.k.) Also Middle Earth Shadow of War (sequel to Mordor) (Not 
great) game I just couldn't bring myself to finish.

It's hard to find high discount on Steam, as there doesn't seem to be a 
switch for discount percent (except on wishlist.)  Witcher III Wild Hunt 
is on deep sale, but it's on deep sale on GOG as well so buy it there. 
I see Flatout is on deep -80% sale.  A gun-racing game I loved.
