steamdb.info-issues VS BrowserExtension

Asking if you should buy a game now or wait for a sale isn't allowed, asking when a game will go on sale is not allowed, asking how big of a discount a game might get is not allowed. Use SteamDB to look at sale histories on games.

Here's how to cure you from your buying habit, checkout https://steamdb.info/, check the price history of the game you're thinking of getting. Most likely it's on sale once every odd month, and discount percentages are only ever increasing over time. So really you can just buy it when you think you have time to play it soon.

Asking if you should buy a game now or wait for a sale isn't allowed & asking when a game will go on sale is not allowed. Use SteamDB to look at sale histories on games.

You can use the Steam console to download older versions as described here. You can get the depot and manifest IDs from SteamDB.

If you want to find the app id for any other game just head to steamdb.info and type the title of the game on the search bar.

Yes, as yo_soy_pinguino noted it does go on sale. You can check steamdb.info for a price history. I bought my copy during the Autumn Sale.

I also updated both versions with a new method of getting Steam library data: having an active login to the Steam store website on the same browser. This method allowed me to get data about owned DLC, which no other method seems to be able to do. If you're worried about the security, it's the same method that is used by the SteamDB browser extension, and my extension is open-source as well. There is also an alternative method using a Steam API key and a steamID.

It's Steam DB

Here's the code.

It is possible to validate the code in published extensions against github diffs because they're published as-is, without any bundlers and whatnot. Here's a diff for the version that updated the permission. (Chrome version is zipped from manifest-v3 branch though).
