When the price drops enough, I sometimes buy something because of the "ooh, that's a good deal, I might play that someday". And... sometimes I don't get around

When the price drops enough, I sometimes buy something because of the "ooh, that's a good deal, I might play that someday".
And... sometimes I don't get around to playing those games, because something more interesting comes along before I get around to it.
So yes, the developer isn't making as much per user, but I believe the increased volume would often make up for it.
- toomuchtodo 13y agoThis is how I buy Kindle books. $10? I'll wait until its $2-$3 for when I'm on vacation and binge.
- bentcorner 13y agoI love Steam sales but I feel pain for the developers. The number of AAA titles in my steam library that I've barely played is pretty high. I could go without buying any games for at least a year before I would consider buying another one. My time for playing games has become so small that I'm well behind the release curve, so games that I do want to play are frequently < $15.
