Comment on Steam is lying about their discounts

  Could be, IDK. I’ve seen that with a regular discount and the price gets raised when a sale starts, but never with a double discount.

  Perhaps someone that has published on steam could shed more light.

    In the store I’m not seeing what you’re seeing. I think what you’re looking at is actually these two bundles, not the base games:

    steamdb.info/bundle/35041/ steamdb.info/bundle/23853/

    Also, as it was pointed out, Steam does not control pricing, that would be entirely in the hand of the publisher or developer, not to mention it is against TOS (and also illegal in some markets)

      That looks like it. I checked one of the bundles.

      Then tried adding to cart from my wishlist. It added both games, but on my wishlist it only shows the one game. That’s just really buggy, and fortunately only intentionally deceptive instead of intentionally.
