Yeah I feel that. This last Steam Sale I picked up one game, and other than Humble Bundles or similar Steam Sales I think that's basically become par for the course for me. I just can't justify spending $X on a game when I know I'm going to have to spend that money 5 more times to get the full experience out of the game.
Well I don't usually buy games, Around here videogames are extremely expensive for someone who earns minimum wage so I have to go for the free ones. The only way I would buy a game is.....if I'm totally in love with it, and have the need of buying it, and that my dear friend never happens.
I can very well understand your point. Everything has its related boundaries and these boundaries vary from person to person.
so that's why I play and sometimes pay for new ones.
You know some people sell their in-game items (that they get for free) on the market for Steam credit. Lots of items out there can be bought or sold without any attachment, and you'll end up having some funds for the sale if you get lucky. The card drops also help and you can make a near infinite cycle of selling cards, buying games, then selling its cards. Pretty fun stuff, like some sort of meta game outside the games on Steam.
Yup, I know about that. I've been selling CS:GO skins for a while now and managed to make a pretty buck. I don't really care about the skins, I'd rather have the money to buy new games instead.
Yup, people actually buy skins that cost $20. That's more than enough for a new game entirely. The ultra rare ones cost over $100 which is a brand new AAA game too. People really want to look good online so they'll pay anything just for those skins. Especially in Dota 2; shiny sparkles = hundreds of dollars = bragging rights.
Steam changed the way I looked at purchasing games as well. Their sales, along with the accessibility of Humble Bundles, make PC gaming incredibly affordable. I think the last game I payed full price for was Skyrim on it's release date, good old 11/11/11! I remember having to pay higher prices for Xbox games when I played on a console, which is one of the reasons I have such a hard time returning to console gaming.
I like your spirit. To remain content with what we have is a great quality and only a few people have this. You are a real blessed soul to have this awesome human virtue.thanks for the reply
I'm a relaxed person so if I can buy something I do it, if not then I just adapt myself and that's it. Games are for me, one of the best ways to just relax and go with the flow, and that makes me happy
