Tech Updates: Custom PC Build Progress and the Steam Autumn Sale haul

[springsodas]

Hi, welcome to another episode of "Soda spent most of the day sleeping due to depression and Shark Week™ and now she's up at 2:45 AM wide awake and bored out of her mind."

So, various news on the custom PC build front

• Good news: Another person responded to my post over on r/buildapcforme, who has been even more helpful with helping me get ideas down for the build than the previous one
• Bad news: Order for the monitor ended up getting cancelled; seller only had one unit left and it was damaged, and they have no idea when it's going to be back in stock
• Good news: Ended up getting a full refund, thank goodness
• More good news: In terms of the parts I do have so far, I officially have the CPU, CPU cooler, and physical storage; I also have the motherboard ordered, although I may end up cancelling that one if it turns out there's a better option for a similar price

And now onto the gaming stuff: The Steam Autumn Sale is going on right now and holy crap, the sheer amount of stuff on my wishlist that was on sale was INSANE. The complete list of stuff I was able to get:

• The Final Station (this one was an accident; I meant to take it out of my cart, but eh, it was only $3.00)
• Graveyard Keeper
• All four games in "The Room" series
• Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2, plus the "Battle" DLC for the latter (CHAO GARDEN, HERE I COME.)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown, as well as the Metalhead DLC for Splintered Fate (once I'm back from my TMNT-hiatus, I can't wait to get to those two)
• Transistor 

Knowing that I still have plenty to buy in terms of the PC build and that I have preorders for both the Pipin' Hot Collector's Edition of Splintered Fate as well as the deluxe Blu-Ray of the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Evolution, Mutation & Reboot documentary, I don't plan on getting anything else, but damn, the fact I was able to get 10 games + a couple of DLC things for only about $50 is... wow. Help.

Nice Steam sale haul! Sonic Adventure 2 Battle was my game back on the GameCube, and I've heard such good things about Graveyard Keeper.
