I only buy games on steam or very rarely GOG. I refuse to buy a games that are exclusive to a single platform. I don’t want to pay people to remove my choices. So there’s been a few games I’ve waited to leave their exclusive deals with epic or whatever. Satisfactory is one. They had an epic store exclusive I think for 2 years and then they went to steam. I very much enjoyed the game.
I’m still waiting for escape from tarkov to join us on steam.
Unless I have friends doing multiplayer at this moment, I just waitlist games until they hit $5. And when that happens I buy them. So I have a large game backlog. I don’t anticipate or wait for games. I just wait list and forget and then I have happy surprises during the steam sales.
I think I had lost seas on my waitlist for 2 years 3 years.

What if something is $6 and it’s never been this cheap for 7 years now? You wait more?
I’m only human! It’s a rule of thumb! Depends on my emotional state when I see the sale. So yeah I’ve snagged a $6 game sure.
Other times you pay less right so it averages out.
