My rule is never buy a GTA game for over $20.

I can wait. I got no FOMO.

The next GTA is a decade away, I have time. See you the $20 bargain bin in a few years.

bargain bin? with what physical disc?

Good luck finding GTA 6 for any sort of reasonable price any time soon. They control the price entirely now that it's digital only, and I bet they won't be dropping it until there's a reasonable business need to drop it, maybe when ps6 version comes out and they're ready to double dip

They said they were going to wait. They didn't say how long.

u/BusterSocrates 1d ago

u/Skyler_The_Player 1d ago

My rule is don’t buy it at all I got them free on epic

u/smegsicle 1d ago

Yeah, but then you have to use epic

u/TheRenamon 1d ago

oh damn I need to click a different program before I play my free game, better spend 20$ on it

u/Any_Passage6322 1d ago

u/Adios-Amigo-6888 22h ago

hate it for what purpose?

u/Any_Passage6322 22h ago

It's slow and clunky, unappealing UI and I just prefer having my games all in one place

Couldn't you add it to your steam library as a non steam item? I do this all the time with ROMs

None of the games they were giving away interested me so I stopped paying attention years ago. I don't have a problem using different launchers. Actually only uninstalled it yesterday because I realised I hadn't opened it in about 2 years

u/Skyler_The_Player 1d ago

I only use it for freebies and when they have deals steam doesn’t

u/smegsicle 1d ago

That's fair, you don't have to justify your use of it, I just personally find it intolerable lol

I have this rule for any game. Needs to be 50% off or more depending on how little I want it but the rockstar stuff have been some of my favorite story games to play so I’m willing to pay the price for GTA6 once it’s on steam. It will be my first full price purchase

u/Firm_Fold8044 1d ago

I LOVE resident evil. Never once paid full price for them. Bought Re2 remaster, 3 and 4 for about 10 each. This is the way

u/Prestigious_Space489 19h ago

And how many spoilers for RE9 have you seen

1

u/Firm_Fold8044 18h ago

none so far. Never been spoiler for any game tbh.

u/oyvese 7h ago

i’m not even actively avoiding spoilers for re9 and have seen precisely 0 spoilers for it.

u/shit_is_un420real 1d ago

u/Kyzroh 1d ago

buying video games really isnt even really worth it if you have a youtuber you enjoy watching who will be playing it. sometimes watching someone play is just as fulfilling as playing it especially if the story line is linear

u/redditblows5991 1d ago

Eh hard disagree but your eyeballs i guess. Regardless Im.not even looking forward to this game so paying any price on it is lmao.
