There is not much to specify for the question, its really simple: Which title is the first game you have purchased on Steam? Was it a good decision? How much did you pay? When was it and what device? You don’t have to answer all questions, this is just a fun discussion to have.

(I reply with my game too.)
Out of the Park Baseball 21 for 38$. Was it worth it probably not I have 150 hours but haven’t touched it or the franchise even for 4 years. Then again I did spend some time with it.
Hey, if you spent 150 hours with the game, then I think it was worth it. Unless it was 150 hours torture, but something tells me it wasn’t. ;-)
Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator in 2018 was the first one I spent money on after only playing free games for years. Definitely a waste of money at the time, it could barely run on the crappy PC I had back then. Haven’t touched it much since.
Nier Automata
Technically it was Mass Effect!
But I bought it on Origin.
Well, that wouldn’t count for this question. :p The first purchase on Steam also grants you some basic other rights (like trading I think, I’m not sure).
Then it’s Skyrim! haha
My first game was Bastion on 6 Apr, 2013. It cost me 14 Euros. At that time my PC didn’t actually have the biggest horse power for gaming and frankly, at that time there wasn’t much Linux games available on Linux. Steam was new on Linux and we didn’t have Proton yet. A friend told me about this game, it sounded fun and interesting, and it wasn’t expensive.
Opinion: Bastion has one of the best OST of any game. It’s absolutely spot on and fits the game perfectly.
I loved the soundtrack! Together with its unique story telling, it’s art style and the soundtrack brought a fantastic atmosphere. I did listen to some tracks even after finishing the game. It’s lovely.
My first purchase was Deus Ex: Human Revolution in Aug. 2011. Was bought as a retail DVD but needed Steam.

The Witcher: Enhanced Edition in 2013 for $9.99. Kind of ironic really as I still haven’t played it for more than an hour or so.
The next game I bought was The Witcher 2 three months later for $19.99 which I finished and loved.
Most of the early games were bought on steam sales and were either games I’d already played on console/PC or classics I never got around to.
