minus-square@purplemonkeymad@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglish3•2 months agoPart of the sale issue for me, is that I sometimes already own these deep discount games. It makes it feel like there are less good deals. Also some new games have what I consider to be really high base prices, so a 60% discount is still not near the impulse buy range.
