    You haven’t even bothered to write any text to try and defend this absurd, idiotic idea that the two choices available are “sales” or “full price forever”.

        Your “point” is not fucking true. Games can (and routinely used to) permanently discount their RRP as they got older.

        They only stopped doing that because temporary discounts make more money. It works so well that they’ve conned you into believing that doing so is the only possibility, and pro-consumer.

        Your excuses for not reading do explain why you’re like this.

            I paid for the game years ago and have since got hundreds of hours of enjoyment out of it. I don’t remember what I paid, or care, because I know I got a good deal given how fun it is.

            I’m obsessed with the fact that you think what matters is the discount, not the price. Here, this is you:

            this is you

            Sucker. Let me guess, you’ve been manipulated so thoroughly you think Temu’s gamified shopping is pro-consumer too? And fast-food places “discounting” your £30 burger meal down to £15 with a complex system of vouchers? That’s good too, is it?

                fake sale

                You are SO CLOSE to understanding that the sale doesn’t matter, only the price matters. Keep trying, buddy.

                    Cool, we got there, it’s about the price.

                    So, next time you want to talk about it, maybe just say it’s too expensive for you and you’d rather spend your money on something else, unless they lower the price.
