This was and is my first steam summer or any kind of huge seasonal sale, I read and saw many videos about Steam will rape your wallet so I was wondering did I make the right decision buying this games?

-Grid - $3.00

-Mirrors Edge - $4.39

-Insurgency - $ 3.74

-Transistor - $4.99

Kind of hovering over L4D2, but I already have bunch of games in my library that I have installed upon purchase but never played more than 30 minutes... I really don't want to waste money, also any suggestions?

Those are some fairly inexpensive purchases there, so I'd say you did well for the Steam sale... so far ;)

 

I've also only spent about £10 so far on three games, so I'm glad that my wallet isn't empty yet.

Curious about which games you bought, if you want xD

I spent $20 on Civ 5 Complete, Insurgency, and Game Dev Tycoon. 

Now, you know what you can expect from these barbarians. They are a race of rabid BASTARDS that will fight us tooth and nail! But they don't know what they're up against. Cyrodiil, is CIVILIZATION! Cyrodiil, is ORDER! Cyrodiil is POWER! And out here, WE. ARE. CYRODIIL.

I'm already getting ~50$ in refunds. Too bad it takes the money 7 days to get back into my steam wallet.

I once had one of these, now I've got this.

There's literally no reason not to get it, plus it's on sale for $0.99 and is very positively rated.

love cities skylines, chivalry is good if you keep up with it.. it will get get frustrating once you hit the level cap for the new player servers, but once you learn how other players fight it gets fun again because you don't feel like a sitting duck getting one hitted all the time

it can be, i mean, stick to the new player servers as long as you can. there is a level cap for them though. and that should get you familiar enough with the controls, mechanics, and how to win fights. when you join the higher level players it can be frustrating but you'll get the hang of it, especially if you played the new servers first to actually learn the game
